Excerpt: Olvir Rosta (Old Norse: Olvir Rosta, and Olvir orljotsson), also known as Aulver Rosta, is a character within the mediaeval Orkneyinga saga, who is purported to have lived during the early 12th century. His Old Norse byname, rosta, means "brawl," "riot." His name, and byname, appear variously in English secondary sources. Olvir appears in the saga as the son of orljot, and Steinnvor 'the Stout'. The mother of Steinnvor is Frakokk, who has been described as one the great villains of the entire saga. One of Frakokk's sisters, Helga, is the concubine of Earl Hakon Palsson. Part of the saga relates of how the Earldom of Orkney is for a time jointly run by half-brothersHaraldr Hakonsson and Pall Hakonsson, who are both sons of Earl Hakon.

In time, Frakokk conspire with the father of Earl Rognvaldr, and agrees to a plan to take the Orkney by force and split it with Earl Rognvaldr. She and Olvir eventually make their way to the Suoreyjar, and may their return in a bid to win half of the earldom. However, their small fleet of ships are defeated in battle against Earl Pall.
