Well, if it's going to be a roleplay about Vikings, you'd sort of _need_ to know things about other people's characters before the roleplay began, I'd think - since they lived in small, tight-knit communities (most of them, anyway - there was the odd hermit, I suppose). :P

Although I think your introductory posts are quite cool - the one you wrote up for the Aesteria Chronicles was awesome. c:
