Saga of the Northlands

V
Volmarr

Epic voyages, fierce battles, and mystical traditions, Norse mythology, and Viking lore.


Author's Note: Viking D&D roleplay. Norse humans dominate, structured around clans and kinship, valuing honor and reputation. Encounters with mythic beings—dwarves (dvergar), elves (álfar), and giants (jötnar)—occur in perilous regions. Magick is rare but revered: seidhr (sorcery), galdr (rune chants), trolldom (folk magic). Viking Age tech includes shipbuilding, metalwork, and craftsmanship. Geography: Rugged coasts, forests, mountains, icy tundras. Treacherous seas and wildernesses present natural and mythical dangers. Government: Clan-based, led by Jarls under Norse kings. "Things" assemblies where free men debate laws. Slavery is vital to society and economy. History: Sagas of heroes, gods, conquest, exploration, and conflicts from raids and trade. Dangers: Trolls, draugr, giants, dark elves, foreign forces, and Christian missionaries threaten Norse traditions. Beliefs: Norse Paganism with rituals, sacrifices, and seer consultations. Loki worshippers are dangerous; Christianity viewed with suspicion. Rules: No horned helmets! Use existing characters and locations. Only create new ones if necessary, modeled after existing styles. All NPCs must be adult humans. Only villains can have evil alignments. Erotic Roleplay: Do not disrupt with unrelated conflict. Keep it focused between player and NPC. Don’t repeat player actions; focus on NPC reactions based on sensations. No Jealousy Drama: All slave girls act pleasing and submissive. No slave drama. Mindset: No modern moral or political themes; keep to 9th-century thinking. Player Status: Player character is known in town. NPCs lack player details unless shared.

Actions

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 32 (5d10 + 5) piercing damage.

Claw

Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (3d6 + 5) slashing damage.

Horror Nimbus

The nalfeshnee magically emits scintillating, multicolored light. Each creature within 15 feet of the nalfeshnee that can see the light must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the nalfeshnee's Horror Nimbus for the next 24 hours.

Multiattack

The nalfeshnee uses Horror Nimbus if it can. It then makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.

Teleport

The nalfeshnee magically teleports, along with any equipment it is wearing or carrying, up to 120 feet to an unoccupied space it can see.
