Let's see... I'll put in Tyr Hiroth as Forseti... I don't know who to cast Pyro as... Do you have a good source for bios for the Valkyries, Valhallans, and Midgardans?

All the Valkryies are Women.

The Valhallans are any hero (not deity) from norse mythology. Read: Sigurd, Signy, Sigmund

Midgardans are any mortal that was not a hero in the myths.

Oh... Ummm... So much for the Valkyries... Is there a character known for artillery or anything? /me needs someone to suit Pyro... Maybe Thor...

Try one of the heros of the mythology, they end up being the soldiers.
Aug 23, 2003 Pyro link
Okay... Where should I get bios on them?
Aug 23, 2003 Celkan link
just search for norse mythology.

hm. after doing some research on the person (Hagen of Tronje in the german mythology, Hoegni in the norse) i wanted to choose, i found out that his name in norse mythology just sounds stupid (for a descendant partially of a slavionian tribe, partially of a celtic tribe, which i am).
i agree with you celkan, names do make a difference :)
i'll just stick with japanese...

Hmmm... Maybe I'll just make him one of the Midgardans...

Toshiro: how about Sigurd or Sigmund?
edit: Pyro one of you could take one, and the other could take the other.

Hmmm... /me likes Sigurd, but wonders if Toshiro wants him...

"just search for norse mythology."
-The problem with searching for norse mythology on the internet is that if you are looking for anyone specific, almost all your results will be based on Marvel comic's Thor, and not on the original myths. Damn you Marvel.

But here is something to make it easier:

Yeah, that and http://www.timelessmyths.com/norse/aesir.html are the two good places I've been to...

I just want to know who Hogun is. He has a cool name, but I can't figure out if the character is any good since I can't find him anywhere.

I have a story in my head. But certain in game events have to happen before I can post it. Freyr won't become active until then.
Sep 14, 2003 Celkan link
Actually please post it in our forum so I can put it to good use in the main story.
