Vali Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm planning a norse name / run through, using people from norse mythology. Right now I can think of wolf (aka Varg) and Frey®. I'm pretty sure I'm missing most, but I always get distracted by all those stupid Latin/Roman names. Could I have some help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vali Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Yeah, and I missed the obvious Ymir, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ϲharlie Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm pretty sure Ogma is actually Irish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taho Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'm pretty sure Ogma is actually Irish. Indeed. The champion of the Tuatha De Danann. Cognate with the Gallic god Ogmios, so he's pretty much a Celtic God if you want to be precise. He even completes the indo-european dyptic with the Dagda (found in Mytra and Varuna in Hindu myth), so he could be even older (but that would be going slightly outside of my area of expertise) So, yeah, he's not Norse :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodykitty Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Some draugar are immune to weapons. Only a hero has the strength and courage needed to stand up to so formidable an opponent.Hero Zagaro takes down Draug just fine according to this.
