The provided sources do not record a creation narrative or mythic birth story for Radien-pardne. Available summaries focus on his familial role within the triadic Radien grouping — as son and active agent — rather than on any independent origin tale.
The cited materials give no physical description or iconography for Radien-pardne. Sources record multiple name-forms (Radien-pardne, Radien-bardne, Southern Sámi Raedienbaernie, Raediengiedte/Radienkiedde) used in different contexts or dialects, but they do not describe bodily form, clothing, or attributes for the figure.
In the sources Radien-pardne is explicitly described as an active god whose task is to perform the orders of his passive father, Radien-attje; his primary role is that of executor or implementer of the father's will. Beyond this functional description, the provided materials attribute no further powers, miracles, or behaviors to him. The sources also note that certain titles (e.g., Čorve-radien 'horn ruler' and Kierfva-Radien) have at times been equated with Radien-attje and at other times with Radien-pardne, indicating some fluidity or overlap in naming and role assignment in the tradition (as reported in the sources).

Horagalles
A Sámi sky and thunder figure who produces thunder and lightning, controls weather, oceans and lakes, and whose rainbow is described as his bow.
