––– RP HOOKS –––

Duskholme: Whispers of a cut of land that follows even the most ancient of Arathi traditions.  There is no mind for the war, and they are fiercely protective of their homes.  They are not friendly and are suspicious of outsiders until they prove themselves worthy of hospitality.

Grimdark/Vrykul-Based: Rumors of a soul who had won a challenge set by Odyn returned to his home.  No doubt a few skalds are whispering of such..

Adventurer: When he is not aiding Frijalda and his sister in leading his people, he is answering the call of those in need, alongside a Tauren, another Vrykul, a Forsaken, a Human, a Kaldorei, and an Orc.

Alone I sat | when the Old One sought me, The terror of gods, | and gazed in mine eyes: "What hast thou to ask? | why comest thou hither? Othin, I know | where thine eye is hidden."

I know where Othin's | eye is hidden, Deep in the wide-famed | well of Mimir; Mead from the pledge | of Othin each mom Does Mimir drink: | would you know yet more?

Necklaces had I | and rings from Heerfather, Wise was my speech | and my magic wisdom; Widely I saw | over all the worlds.

On all sides saw I | Valkyries assemble, Ready to ride | to the ranks of the gods; Skuld bore the shield, | and Skogul rode next, Guth, Hild, Gondul, | and Geirskogul. Of Herjan's maidens | the list have ye heard, Valkyries ready | to ride o'er the earth.

I saw for Baldr, | the bleeding god, The son of Othin, | his destiny set: Famous and fair | in the lofty fields, Full grown in strength | the mistletoe stood.

Fenrir?

[the-typhonian]

““I will put my hand in your mouth, Fenrir,” said Tyr. Fenrir lay on his side, and Tyr put his right hand into Fenrir’s mouth, just as he had done when Fenrir was a puppy and they had played together. Fenrir closed his teeth gently until they held Tyr’s hand at the wrist without breaking the skin, and he closed his eyes. The gods bound him with Gleipnir. A shimmering snail’s trail wrapped the enormous wolf, tying his legs, rendering him immobile. “There,” said Odin. “Now, Fenris Wolf, break your bonds. Show us all how powerful you are.” The wolf stretched and struggled; it pushed and strained every nerve and muscle to snap the ribbon that bound it. But with every struggle the task seemed harder and with every strain the glimmering ribbon became stronger. At first the gods snickered. Then the gods chuckled. Finally, when they were certain that the beast had been immobilized and that they were in no danger, the gods laughed. Only Tyr was silent. He did not laugh. He could feel the sharpness of Fenris Wolf’s teeth against his wrist, the wetness and warmth of Fenris Wolf’s tongue against his palm and his fingers. Fenrir stopped struggling. He lay there unmoving. If the gods were going to free him, they would do it now. But the gods only laughed the harder. Thor’s booming guffaws, each louder than a thunderclap, mingled with Odin’s dry laughter, with Balder’s bell-like laughter … Fenrir looked at Tyr. Tyr looked at him bravely. Then Tyr closed his eyes and nodded. “Do it,” he whispered. Fenrir bit down on Tyr’s wrist. Tyr made no sound.”

                    “…Then shall Fenrir-Wolf get loose. Fenrir-Wolf shall advance with gaping mouth and his lower jaw shall be against the earth, but the upper against aether; he would gape yet more if there were room for it; fires blaze from his eyes and nostrils.”

Fenrir, son of Loki, was a monstrous wolf. Due to the Gods’ knowledge of prophecies foretelling great trouble from Fenrir and his rapid growth, the gods bound him. En raged by his capture, the wolf bit off the hand of Tyr, whom he had trusted most. Fenrir is the father of the wolves Sköll and Hati Hródvitnisson. Hati Hródvitnisson chases the moon across the night sky, just as his brother Sköll chases the sun during the day. Until the time of Ragnarök when they will swallow these heavenly bodies, after which Fenrir will break free from his bonds and kill Odin. Vidar, son of Odin, will avenge his father’s death by stepping down with one foot on the lower jaw of the monster, grabbing its upper jaw in one hand and tearing its mouth apart.
