Skade and Bloodhair
Season three introduced antagonists Sigurd Bloodhead/Bloodhair (Ola Rapace), who was waging war against Alfred.
Viewers also met Skade (Thea Sofia Loch Naess), a prophetic witch who served up visions and brutally killed men.
Skade saw visions Alfred would die and Bloodhair could be the one to take his kingdom.
Later, Alfred met with Skade and asked her to tell his future with concerns over his legacy and whether the country would flourish after him.
Uhtred overcame Bloodhair but Skade was much harder to shake after she chose to follow him. Tm make matters worse, the warrior believed she’d placed a curse on him.
Uhtred eventually killed Skade by strangling her and drowning her in a river after being told it was the only way to break the witch’s curse.
