Norse and Nord Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page
Will we be adding a touch of Norse myth in here just to spice it up? Or are we sticking to ONLY NORDS!

Because I know we're using parts of Nordic culture... But I was wondering about the myths... Valkyries... I know the giants and such are already in the Nordic world as well. I'm having a mental block at the moment and can't think of more... But that was my question.

Only to a point. We are trying to work of the lore Bethesda provided and even when there is a lack of lore we try to stay as original as possible. We do draw inspiration from Norse and Celtic culture, but whatever we use we try to adapt to the Elder Scrolls environment.

Nords already have a rich mythology, anything we could add would probably be pretty insignificant in comparison to what is already in lore... but good ideas are always welcomed. =)

<wants an epic quest for the hammer of Shor> Yes

Edit:

Not sure if it would fit in lore.

Would be a great epic quest if it was...

Having to travel all around Skyrim and talk to the fanatical Shor worshippers. Battling blood thirsty monsters of epic proportions...

Off Topic: WHO ARE THE GODS OF HACKDIRT?!

There was the Hammer of Stendarr in Mournhold from Tribunal...who is Stuhn (I think) in the Nordic Pantheon....so maybe it goes missing and you have to find Stuhn's hammer. Of course, this time it would have to be made so one could actually use it if they are strong enough!

True, perhaps it should be Stuhn's hammer the player looks for... as we know he had one.

Nope, they're closer to Vikings. :)
