Eivor: pledges her raiders to Soma

Dag: I fight for Sigurd.

Eivor: Wrong! While on this longship you fight for me, so follow orders or get the fuck off my ship.

After playing Assassin's Creed Valhalla, I realized that Dag Nithisson is one of the best representations of toxic fanbase I have ever seen:

-Massive sense of entitlement? Dag believes that he is entitled to the post of Jarl of the Raven Clan and Sigurd's right hand solely due to being Sigurd's best friend, even though he consistently shows how utterly inadequate for the post he is (ex. When they first reach England, he has to be reminded that they have to build a settlement first).

-Pathologically obsessive tendencies? Dag is pathologically obsessed with Sigurd, to the point he challenged Eivor to a holmgang to the post of Jarl solely because Sigurd didn't act according to his expectations. In other words, he turned his pathological obsession into destroying Sigurd's vision of the Raven Clan.

-Inferiority complex and victimistic tendencies? Dag shows also an enormous lack of self-confidence, to the point that he tries to paint Eivor as an usurper and a glory hound just to feel better about himself and projects his own insecurities onto Eivor because of it. While Sigurd never intended to replace Dag as his best friend, Dag took this as being replaced due to this extreme lack of self-confidence.

If Dag actually became Jarl of the Raven Clan there would be two outcomes:

-Sigurd kills Dag for daring to disobey him.

-The Clan itself kills Dag because he would be an irresponsible and childish ruler who would transform Ravensthorpe into a barren wasteland, ala Scar from the Lion King.

Dag eventually dying at the end due to his own idiocy is basically a commentary on the self-destructive egos of the toxic fanbase.

sometimes i wonder why Dag never went on any trips with Sigurd.

and then he started talking
