*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Canons (((Characters that were created by Michael Hirst and appear in the Vikings TV show.))) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() RAGNAR LOTHBROK Age- 34 :: Farmer and Warrior :: Open! Desiring fame and glory (and much more), Ragnar often finds ways to bend the rules placed upon him and ultimately obtains what he believes he deserves. In the process of this, he usually appears to be arrogant and inconsiderate, perhaps even a little self-centered. But deep down he truly does have a heart and is a kind man who knows what is right and what is wrong. He cherishes and loves his family more than even the thrill of a raid. Unable to take "no" for an answer, Ragnar is determined to disobey his chieftain yet again and return to England where a whole new promising land awaits for him to conquer, plunder, and discover. Appearance Ragnar is 6 feet tall, about 34 years old, has a strong body of a formidable warrior, piercing ice-blue eyes, and dirty-blonde hair which is always tied back into a sort of braided ponytail. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() LAGERTHA LOTHBROK Age- 32 :: Farmer, shieldmaiden, wife of Ragnar :: Open! Shieldmaiden, farmer, loyal wife, and compassionate mother. Lagertha is many things, but a coward is definitely not one of them. She's not afraid to get her hands dirty and she's not afraid to say what she thinks, or do what is right. Many people respect and admire her. She is a strong woman worthy of Ragnar's love and a warrior worthy of a place among the best fighters in Scandinavia. But her kindness and wisdom is just as intense and just as admired as her ferocity. She works hard to raise her children to be respectable adults, to please the gods, and to keep her restless husband in check. So far the day hasn't come when she cannot handle or conquer a challenge. Appearance Lagertha is 5'6", about 32 years old, has long wavy blonde hair which falls to her chest, and has blue eyes just like her beloved husband. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() BJORN LOTHBROK Age- 12 :: Son of Ragnar :: Open! Bjorn is practically a spitting image of his father, sharing his traits of ambition, defiance, and arrogance. After recently receiving his arm band, a symbol of loyalty and service to his chieftain, Bjorn is now entangled in his father's opposition to Earl Haraldson, and is starting to question the point of the arm band altogether. Agreeing with his father and closely following in his footsteps, Bjorn yearns to travel to England as well, and is working hard on proving himself to his father. Determined to be a warrior and obtain just as much fame and glory as Ragnar, Bjorn often forgets just how young and small he truly is. Appearance Bjorn is about 12 years old, has short blonde hair which is shaved even shorter in the back, and has piercing blue eyes like his father. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() GYDA LOTHBROK Age- 13 :: Daughter of Ragnar :: Open! Gyda is the sweet introverted daughter of Ragnar Lothbrok. In contrast to her feisty brother, Gyda is rather easy-going and shy. She looks up to her mother with great respect and often wishes to become a great shield maiden like Lagertha. But her gentle and kind heart would never allow her to take someone's life. In an effort to find a beneficial and enjoyable occupation for herself, she has turned to the opposite side of the spectrum, diverting her attention from warfare and instead placing it upon healing. With generous mentoring from Helga and Floki, Gyda is quickly becoming a skilled healer, a profession that is heavily needed for times of war. Appearance Gyda has hazel eyes, and wavy light brown/blonde hair which falls to her waist. She is around 13 years old and possibly slightly older than her brother Bjorn. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() ROLLO LOTHBORK Age- 36 :: Warrior :: Open! Unappreciated. Ignored. And still loyal. That about sums it up. Ever since his younger brother had this crazy idea to venture west, Rollo has been nothing but a shadow watching Ragnar accomplish his goals and accumulate an incredibly unfair amount of glory. Being just as power-hungry as his brother, the mistreatment is torturous. But Rollo still has hope that the tides will turn and that Ragnar will start to acknowledge him and treat him more fairly. They are brothers. Aren't they? Appearance Rollo is 6'2", has the strong build of a brutal warrior, is about 36 years old, has dark brown hair which falls to his shoulders, and has hazel eyes. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() FLOKI Age- 33 :: Ship-builder, healer, trickster :: Taken! Some would say he's a crazy old hermit who lives in the forest, others might say he's a very skilled shipwright, but Ragnar would say he's a valuable friend who might have just a few screws loose. No matter what people may believe, Floki is who he is, and he's never going to change. Playful and silly at times, he can also become quite old and wise. A man of many talents, he is the most skilled ship builder in all of Scandinavia and a miracle worker when it comes to healing. He never ignores an opportunity to have a little fun. With a deep love for the sea and yet an ironic incapability to swim, he accompanies his best friend Ragnar on many raids, proving to be such an unpredictably ruthless warrior that he does not even accept a shield. Beyond all things, Floki is a loyal and devoted friend. Appearance Floki towers at 6'3", around 33 years old, and has short messy brown hair with a tuft above his forehead. He often wears charcoal around his eyes and has a lithe slender build. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() ATHELSTAN Age- 23 :: The Priest :: Open! After being captured and taken from his monastery, forced to either become a slave or die, and appointed to babysit the unruly child of a viking, Athelstan has been through a lot. His faith in his God keeps him going, and although his experiences have been frightening, unholy, and just plain mad, he has learned a lot from Ragnar Lothbrok and honestly, sometimes he believes things aren't too bad. The rope collar and leash has been removed and he is beginning to be treated like a member of the family now. Bjorn still despises the monk, but most other vikings have been rather accepting of the foreigner and his strange belief system. Will Athelstan continue to remain loyal to his faith, or will the Viking world change him into something he never imagined he could become? Appearance Athelstan is 5'9", around 23 years old, and has short curly brown hair and blue eyes. His monk clothes have been worn to scraps and he now dresses in everyday viking apparel. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() SIGGY AND EARL HARALDSON ~SIGGY~ Age- Late 30's :: Chieftess :: Open! Siggy is the introverted wife of Earl Haraldson. Her serious, calm, and thoughtful nature gives her a clear perspective of the events storming around her. She often gives input on the challenges her husband faces as Earl, but ultimately she knows his word is final. After the dreadful loss of her two beloved sons, her husband is all she has left to live for. She believes Ragnar is a good man, but his disobedience to her husband's laws is intolerable. Appearance Siggy has long wavy brown hair and is in her late 30's. She often wears the exquisite garments and jewelry of a cheiftess and sometimes uses charcoal as eyeliner. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~EARL HARALDSON~ Age- Mid 40's :: Earl/Chieftain :: Open! Dealing with headstrong citizens, restless tribes to the East, the loss of his only two sons, and so much more, Earl Haraldson really does have a lot on his shoulders. If he could have just one thing removed from his mountainous list of problems, he'd chose to never have to deal with Ragnar's persistent trouble-making ever again. And if that would mean having to terminate the man, then that might just be what the Earl has to do. Siggy has convinced him to give Ragnar one last chance to shape up, and hopefully with his ship in Haraldson's possession, Ragnar and his crew will fall back in line. Recent disputes with the power-hungry Earl Grimmar to the East is quickly becoming Earl Haraldson's number one priority. Appearance Earl Haraldson is in his mid 40's, has dark grey/black hair that falls to his chest, and is often adorned in the light armor and cloaks of a chieftain. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() HELGA Age- Mid 20's :: Floki's partner :: Open! Sweet and shy, Helga usually doesn't have much to say but that doesn't mean she shouldn't be heard. She tends to stay safely at home while Floki is out raiding with Ragnar, avoiding the violence and gore. Having a lot of time to herself during the raiding season, Helga has mastered many of her hobbies and developed useful skills. She crafts her own clothes along with Floki's leather armor, and fashions fine jewelry that she frequently enjoys selling at the market. Helga shares her lover's passion for Norse gods any mythology. Floki's pretty much the only person she spends time with, and she loves him more than anything. Appearance Helga is in her mid 20's, stands around 5'4", has hazel eyes and long wavy blonde hair which falls to her chest. She usually wears charcoal as eye liner. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() ARNE Age- mid 20's :: One-eyed warrior :: Open! Although he is on the smaller side compared to most other vikings, Arne has proven himself to be just as great of a warrior as anyone. The loss of his right eye has given him courage, knowing that if he could survive that ghastly injury, he could pretty much survive anything. Arne is young and inquiring, having the maturity of a man and yet the innocence of a child. He is friendly towards everyone and loves nothing more than raiding with a great close-knit group of warriors. Appearance Arne is in his mid 20's, stands around 5'7, has medium-length brown hair, and is missing one eye that is usually covered by an eye patch. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() TORSTEIN Age- Late 30's :: Warrior :: Open! Being Ragnar's good friend for some time, Torstein was one of the first to join in his new daring plan to venture west. Although Torstein is a great warrior, he is also a great man. He's the papa bear to the entire crew, taking all he can under his wings to guide and protect. But, having a farm and a family of his own, he knows his limits and doesn't take risks that would put them in harm's way. He does make an effort to stay out of Earl Haraldson's way and stay on his chieftain's good side. Appearance Torstein is in his late 30's, stands about 6'2", and has blonde hair. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() LEIF Age- Mid 30's :: Warrior :: Open! A close friend of Arne's, Lief is a quiet warrior with a big heart. He's a follower and not a leader, but he is respected just as much as everyone else in the crew. He often thinks about his beloved family and keeps them on the surface of his mind. Valuing strong relationships, he never starts fights and makes an effort to prevent them from happening between any of the crew members. Wary of Earl Haraldson's wrath, Leif is torn between obeying his chieftain and pursuing a great opportunity with some of the best men in Scandinavia. Appearance Leif is in his mid 30's, stands about 6 feet tall, and has short blonde hair with beads(piercings?) in his beard. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* (((Characters that will be available to role play only upon request: The Seer, Thyri Haraldson, Svein.))) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* OC's (((Characters that were created by the role players for this site that are not from the Vikings TV show))) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ![]() EARL GRIMARR Age- Late 30's :: Chieftain of the Eastern Lands :: Taken! The former Earl of the Eastern lands was slow to start unnecessary wars, reasonable and relatively peaceful. But now that his ambitious son has claimed the title of Earl, things have changed. Earl Grimarr is not a pushover like he believes his father was. He's hungry to expand his reign and his territory, and unfortunately his ambitions are aimed at Earl Haraldson's land. Over the past few months, Grimarr has acquired and trained many new warriors in an effort to build a succeeding army, and the attacks have begun. Already having claimed the battle-front on the eastern border and taken possession of a good portion of land, Grimarr can practically taste his victory already. Appearance Earl Grimarr is in his late 30's, stands about 6 feet tall, and has brown hair that reaches his shoulders. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Edited by Odin, Jun 28 2013, 09:15 AM.
