[Kvlt Wench]

I AM THE SHAMAN OF VALHALLA'S WRATH. I DO NOT NEED TO BE LARGE!!! RAAAAAARRRRRRR!!!!!

[Tide In Mind Out]

2. i'm tall...5'9.5", not too big though, 130ish lbs, but i can kick anyone's ass with my devilsticks
3. my hair's a couple inches past my shoulders(it doesn't grow), but it is blonde!!
4. beard...no
5. attitude...naw not really
6. beer...no. dr. pepper, yes
7. sense of humor...no...i mean, yes yes of course!!
8. whats wrong with horns on helmets?
9. i like swords (and raping, and killing dangerous spiders, and burning ink pens)
10. METALLLLLLLLLLL!!!<thats dr. pepper in his mug

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

[TheDreamingMind]

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

[MajestikMøøse]

1. Be of Scandanavian descent.
2. Be tall and big.
3. Grow long hair.
4. Grow beard.
5. An attitude definitely helps...
6. Drink beer.
7. Have a sense of HUMOR, for Odin's sake.
8. NO, we didn't have horns on our helmets.
9. You must like swords (and raping, and killing, and burning villages...)

And above ALL ELSE:

10. Vikings MOST CERTAINLY would have listened to metal, if it had existed then... esp. Nevermore, so you have to like metal.

Thank you for your time.

I'm not very viking in appearance, but I do like swords.

probably would involve copious amounts of rogaine....applied liberally to ones' face.

You know...I'm not sure a beard is THAT critical...

 

[Karmic]

1. PURE!!!!!!!!
2. reasonably. maybe not very. but good enough.
3. HELL YES!
4. on its way.
5. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH.
6. Drinketh beer!!!!!!!!!!!
7. fencing class.
8. Bah, I'll make my own.
9. dude, i HAVE a sword at home. and i shall strike anyone who stands in my path. WITH STEEL!

And above ALL ELSE:

10. given.....

Pretty much. But in today's global society, an internation viking revival sounds good to me. I'm thinking the political climate in the middle east would be a lot more fun with a herd of bezerkers whizzing down the streets...

 

[AjDeath]

Oh, FUCK, I would love to be able to go BEZERK! I am not trying to be immature here, but I would kill so many people, because if you really think about it, and look around you, there a lot of people who need killing.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

You forgot Iceland and Greenland. They had MAJOR colnies in both of those. Vikings were the first to inhabit greenland.

The vikings had major colonies in most of northern europe; here in Britain especially, but also in France, Germany, Russia, and as En Vind Av Sorg mentioned - Iceland and Greenland. Vikings were also the first easterners to discover America, landing in Newfoundland, Canada (which Leif Erickson dubbed 'Vinland') in about AD 1000.
