Sigurd IvarssonArchetype: Hirdman

I am a Hirdman, an elite warrior sworn to protect my clan and my Jarl. My fate is marked by fire and steel. I will live and die by the sword, under Odin’s judging eye. Can there be a better way to live?

While I dream of battle, the fates have commanded I protect the daughter and heir of my lord, Jorun Hrolf-sdottir. She is proud, untempered and haughty, but a strong leader. Time will tell if she is worthy of the vow I have made for her.

Hild ThorbjornsdottirArchetype: Volva

I see the path of fate; I hear the Aesir and Vanir whisper their words, wise or mad, in my mind. Few understand what I see. The Volva are prophetesses and seers when the auguries are good, but foul witches when the threads of Fate deceive us.

I do not mind my role. It is my heritage, my gift. I like the respect, even the fear, in the eyes of the men I meet. I am tasked to follow my friend and Jarl, Jorun Hrolfsdottir. I will counsel her as best I can, and try to shield her from the danger and suffering that I see before us.

Thorgrim OlavssonArchetype: Berserker

I am not a warrior, I am the battle. I am not the blade in my hand, but the passion of fury itself. Thor himself answers my call and I feel his power within me as I charge into battle. All my fear and pain is given to my enemies, and they fall like wheat before me.

I am sent to babysit the little girl of my Jarl, but I shall judge her not by her deeds or her honeyed words. I shall judge her by her heart when I see the look in her eyes before we charge into battle together.

Klemet GandalvssonArchetype: Thulr

Yggdraill is all around us. I stand in the shelter of the great oak, it gives me life and power. But it also teaches me of death and darkness. I guide those who cannot hear the whispers from its leaves and branches.

Where the Volva are seers of the Gods, I am a seer of nature and Midguard. My counsel is of the land and the world, not fate and the Gods. I pray they heed it, and not think it madness.

Yngwe GilsurssonArchetype: Skald

Not all of us are born to be warriors, but I shall tell you a great secret. The tales of warriors only become legends when a skald deems them worthy of a saga. Anyone can swing a sword, but it takes skill and talent to make such bloodshed into a tale that will last the ages.

I seek adventure that I may be there to record the greatest of deeds. But I have also noticed that any group of warriors and mad sorcerers needs someone with a fair tongue and a sharp mind if they are going to get anywhere at all.

Jorun HrolfsdottirArchetype: Noble

I did not ask to be a leader, did not seek to take this burden. But it is mine nonetheless and I will carry it. To do otherwise is to dishonour myself, my clan and my father.

The people around me are good and talented, and it is good to have my friend Hild by my side. It is my right to lead, and I will do my best for them. I will be strong, and not let them see when doubt clouds my heart.
