Viking Feast

Berserker

The Berserker is often trouble at a feast -- fearless and quick to anger, they frequently end up spilling more mead than they imbibe. It takes many drinks to calm the fiery demeanour of this raiding juggernaut.

Cook

The Cook is no stranger to drink on feast days. Having provided such bounty for the revels, this thirsty work often sees them partaking in the toasts. The Cook however has a strategy so as not to succumb - paired with the right food, the effects of drink are often diminished, allowing them to extend their celebrations into the early morning!

Blacksmith

The Blacksmith is a skilled worker who does not tire easily. The strength of the anvil is in their arms and a favourite game to play during feast days is arm wrestling. When the prize is a flagon of ale, be ready to try yourself against one hardened in the fires of the forge - rarely do they lose.

Chief

Ale to the Chief! Head of the longhouse, the Chief drinks heartily during the feast festivities. The evening calls for many a rousing toast, but when the Chief is finished for the evening, all present raise a tankard high and drink deep, thankful for such bounty and celebration.

Hero

The Hero, who is always the centre of a good celebration! Whenever they enjoy a well deserved drink, they make sure others around them also share in the good cheer as it isn't fun to drink alone!

Missionary

The Missionary is always pious and righteous in virtue. While they often join the feast in celebration with the others, they do not partake in the rowdy drinking, preferring to keep a clear head for their spiritual work. On the rare occasion they will indulge a little, preferring to save the more potent mead for when they celebrate in the afterlife.

Musician

No feast is complete without music and songs sung of battles, thus the Musician holds a place of high-regard at the table. While they partake of an ale or two to whet their whistle, they need to keep their wits to entertain the crowd, so often they pass over the generous drinks offered them by joyous revellers.

Raider

The Raider, always pillaging from any who would oppose them. Feeling safe in your position? The Raider sails in, takes whatever precious items you may have acquired and leaves you with nothing. Think before you sit across the table from such as this marauder!

Thrall

The Thrall is sadly just a servant at the feast. They ensure that everyone has mead and food in quantity for the celebration. Occasionally, they partake of an abandoned ale in the corner while no one notices, but because they so rarely drink they often end up ill.

Ale

A fine start for any evening of drinking with a rowdy group. Don't underestimate the potency of Ale once stacked four or five deep in front of you!

Mead

The nectar of the Gods, Many an unsuspecting Viking has fallen claim to this honey'd drink. Be warned as it is as potent as it is tasty.

Food

What is a feast of drinking without the food! Hearty beef, mutton and turkey legs abound, so partake freely as it will help you stave off the effects that may cloud your judgement.
