The Hall of Heroes

Buried beneath the snow and ice of ancient mountains lies what was once a place of reverence and mournful respect.

Once it was resplendent with banners and effigies of great warriors who had sacrificed all they had to the survival of humanity. It was a place of funerary ritual, where heroes would be honored to voyage to Valhalla and spend the years before Ragnarok with Odin. During the height of the wars that followed the destruction of the YMIR, places like this were commonplace.

Now it is broken down and a ruined echo of its former glory; parasitized by goblins and used as a forward base for something even more sinister: the rogue, unclassified killing machine - GRNDL-1 - that has begun to terrorize the outlying settlements of Midgard.

The Cult of Odin

A hundred years after the Ymir were destroyed and the war against their soulless offspring grew to lethal intensity, the entity known as ODIN began to be worshipped as a god. Although few knew his precise origin, they only needed to know that he alone was responsible for pulling humanity from the fires of destruction. As the years passed and the Aesir replaced the ailing warriors who fought alongside Odin died of old age, worship of ODIN grew radically.
