The Warriors of Valhalla

The Warriors of Valhalla

History, Purpose, and Beliefs

The Warriors of Valhalla was founded by Ender O'Neil of the Barony of Makar. Since its conception it has yet to spread beyond the borders of the Barony of Makar, a fact Ender considers just fine. "There arent enough true Vikings outside of the borders of the Frozen North anyway.", He has been known to say.

The Warriors of Valhalla was founded for the sole purpose of creating a gathering place for Vikings who wish to seek the glory of death in battle. Each viking in the Warriors of Valhalla believe that their ultimate goal is to seek glory and death in battle so that their spirit may find its home in the Halls of Valhalla amongst the great Gods.

The religious beliefs of the vikings of the Warriors of Valhalla differ slightly, though most pray to one god or another of the Pantheon of Norse Gods. Most members of the Warriors are also members of the Hörgr of Makar, which preserves the faith and helps spread the viking way of life.

The Mark of the Warriors

Each member of the Warriors of Valhalla keeps on their person a gold ring bearing the runes of the guild around the surface. These rings are forged specially from looted gold taken from all around Atamara.

Warlords are given a badger-skin hat with large horns to further inspire fear in their enemies on the battlefield.

Ranks

• Ring Giver: The Founder of the Warriors of Valhalla and leader. The name originated from the founder, Ender O'Neil, when he gave golden rings to all members of the guild.
  
• Elder Champions: The greatest warriors of the guild and often times the oldest. They have seen their fair share of battle and are looked to as prime examples of a Viking. They may be looked to for matters of guild business such as choosing new members or allowing older members to rise in rank.

Warlords receive their position by duelling the current Ring Giver and winning, or two of the Elders and winning each duel.
