It was a void between the ice realm of Nifelheim and the fire realm of Muspelheim. Were the cold and hot winds met the giant Ymir was created out of the condensation, and then Odin and his two brothers Vile and Ve (Veel-eh and Ve-eh) killed him and created the world of his body parts.

And Death I believe you asked about Fenrir's sons some time ago (I read through quite a bit of the thread before posting the 'essay' above). He had two children, both wolves, one was called Skoll and the other Hate (Ha-at-eh)

Thanks, Vdviking. That was a whole lot more than Wikipedia had on the subject. And I've forgotten when I asked about Fenrir's sons, but I already knew them. But everytime I've come across them, Hate was spelled "Hati".

well, maybe not very relevant, but it's a good song..

Back from camp early, kind of sucked so I just stayed to do shooting.

VDviking has allot of interesting information on the matter of vikings. In other news, I saw an episode of "Doctors" where someone had a viking funeral.

Well, he just received a 3 day ban, so we hope he got a little enjoyment out of this weekend.

I've seen it, but haven't tried it. Probably never will, either.

Don't ask why.

That's what I would do.

why?

Heard bad things.

From a lot of places.

I read some reviews and they all agree on these points:
1.The game has an epic-like feeling
2.It is VERY gory, even more than God of War
3.Hack&slash but you also get to use magic and stealth
4.The music and in-game sounds should be more epic
5.Colorful graphics
6.Intense battles where 100s of warriors fight simultaneously
7.Small problems with the camera

Heard bad things.

That's quite strange...l will probably convince a friend of mine to buy it (l don't have a PS3 :P)

Back from ban ~_~

Maybe I should just stop posting all togethor, although I know that wont happen. Anyhoo.. Christmas or "commercialmas" is coming up... horray.

I haven't heard much of that game, the video I saw of it looked pretty epic. Maybe get him to buy it :3

Kind regards -
Thomas.

Nice to have you back. And, Christmas is only 15 days away people. It makes me so happy to know that some Catholics are crying on the inside to see Christmas commercialized so.

Suffer zealots, suffer! And my apologies to any Catholics in this thread.

Hello, how are we all. I found my DK book on Vikings, very informative indeed. I recommend it.

It's even more stupid when you take into account the fact that Jesus died around Easter.

There are records dating specifically when he died, just like there are for every other person crucified by the Romans.

Well, it certainly wasn't on the 25th of December.

Although, considering the sky blackened in the middle of the day, it is probable that it was in winter.

Ok folks, what is up?

Anyone been following Luis' teddy troops art contest? I sent in my Viking teddy troop, so you should see it in some photos :3

Yes, mainly mods who weren't mods beforehand and I mocked them severely.

Oh, congrats. That's fairly quick IMO for someone who's been banned as much as you have.

Sure, I have no complaints. Welcome.

Just try to work on your grammar and capitalization. Just a little pet peeve of mine. Thanks.

That is really a great achievement, especially when your level is "only" 23!
