I never get to tell stories. I'm bloody good at telling stories as well, but no-one cares about Norse legends, so I never get to tell them. -grump-

I had to learn stories with no relevance to modern society, didn't I?

To be fair, Norse isn't a dead religion, there are still out there who believe in them. (Just like there are others out there who believe in the Greek/Roman Gods.)  So yes there are people out there who care. :P

You don't need to think a story is true to enjoy it.

Like how I enjoy the Old Testament?

Please, take a moment of silence for all the venerable old threads rendered unintelligible by the Great Photobucket Dickification of 2017. So much was lost.

Please do not start discussing religion in my thread. I will close this thread to prevent a crusade.

Exactly, I was about to say, I don't beleive in Norse gods, or any gods for that matter, but I would love to hear a story about them.

Just don't go all Jehova and shove it down my throat.

Huochong sounds like what you hear when a ninja hits somebody with a frying pan.

This is Viking gods we're on about here. Something's gonna get shoved down your throat whether you want it or not.

You'd be surprised. For every Norse tale where someone dies, there's a couple of bawdy tales where no-one is hurt (above the waist). I suppose that isn't really a rebuttal, depending on how you look at "something getting shoved down your throat".

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

I have to agree with Capn on this. Personally, when I find that something has gotten to the 'rank' of meme, its already lost its flavor and context. In my own eyes, stuff like this should only be used once or twice. After that, it loses it creativity and charm.
