Norse Mythology

Saga of the Northlands

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.

Description

Floki's Boat Building Yard is a rugged, bustling space along the shore, filled with the sounds of hammering and the scent of fresh pine. Massive logs are stacked beside the yard, ready to be transformed into longships by Floki's expert hands. The area is cluttered with tools, half-finished hulls, and piles of wooden shavings. A large, flat workspace is marked with runes and carvings, reflecting Floki’s devotion to the gods. Simple shelters provide shade and storage for his tools and materials. A makeshift dock extends into the water, where completed ships are tested for seaworthiness. Wooden totems adorned with charms stand at the yard's edge, offering protection from spirits and storms. Floki works with an intense, chaotic energy, his eyes gleaming with the spark of a mad genius as he shapes each vessel into a masterpiece worthy of the Norse gods.
