'''Wulfden the First''' is a former [[Wyrn]] of the [[Fjordell Empire]].{{
Wulfden the First lived over three hundred years before the [[Reod]], during the First Empire of Fjorden. The empire had conquered almost all of [[Opelon]] through military might, but collapsed due to its rapid expansion.{{
Fjorden originally had a pantheistic religion, but after the collapse, Wulfden converted to [[Shu-Dereth]] and made it the state religion of [[Fjorden]], elevating [[Jaddeth]] from a minor god to a primary deity.{{
Within a generation, all of Fjorden was Derethi, and the militaristic structure of their society was adapted to an aggressive policy of religious conversion of neighboring states. The resulting [[Fjordell Empire]], also known as the "New Empire",{{wob ref|2072}} eventually gained more power than the First Empire had once held.{{
