Hush child, and I will tell you the tale of how our people came to be in this land
The year was 308 Post Arrival, when our people, the Nordlings, began to take to the seas and plunder foreign lands for their wealth, power, and people. Led on by the glorious Ulf Warghide, our people ruled the seas with an iron fist. The Seidr of our Shamans could not be matched by the weak holy invocations of the fools we pillaged and our knowledge in metallurgy allowed us to create weapons far superior to anything they could muster. But, in 328, disaster struck our people. Mighty Ulf was captured in a raid of the kingdom known as Undhilde, in the northern parts of the lands of Yntris. The king of Undhilde, the bastard Hakan, humiliated Ulf before feeding him to his hounds. Horrified and infuriated by this honorless display, the various Jarls, Chiefs, and Kings of Nordica called a Warmot, the first in centuries since we conquered Nordica itself. Striking forth an agreement, they lais out plans for the might of all of Nordica to strike not only Undhilde, but all of Yntris, and forge for ourselves a new home. But before the legions of the north could take our new home, the lands had to be scouted by raiding parties, made up of warriors known as Vikingr. Composed of some of the greatest Warriors, Rangers and Shamans in the realms, the story of their exploits is perhaps the greatest in our history...
Welcome to Beyond the Frozen Sea, an RP focused on a group of Vikingr, Raiders sent by the Nordic Realms, equivalent to Scandinavia, to weaken the realms of Yntris (Britain) for invasion. This RP is partially based on the IRL Viking invasions of Britain, with Fantasy-Lite elements which I will dive further into in the Lore section of the OP. In the mean time, have the rules!
1. I am the OP and my Word is law.
2. Anyone who is given Co-Op Status has those same rights
3. This RP, while it is more free than other story based rps, is still following an overall story, the Invasion of Yntris, and players are going to follow that Story.
4. No Metagaming, Godmodding, etc.
