[b][center]THE UNKNOWN LANDS[/center][/b][/h1][/sup][hr]

Thetford burns and the victorious Danish army hunts the defeated East Anglians throughout the land. For some the battle has brought word fame, loot, and slaves to raise their status among a people who prize strength and power above little else. For others, however, the battle has left them without a lord or a husband to hold their loyalty on an island filled with countless other desperate souls. 

Among them is Åse, a shield maiden who had followed her beloved to war. With her husband recently cut down by an East Anglian spear, she has been left with a ship and nothing more as the men who once served her husband have deserted her to find more powerful lords. She is not without allies however for her husbands brother, Kjartan, has joined her as she lays her plans for a new journey, one far from the blood soaked shores of England in the hopes of starting a new life for herself.

She has heard rumours of the new lands being discovered in the West. Rich lands filled with timber, fertile soil, endless rivers, and bounties enough for all. As the Danes and their Norse allies celebrate, she has put out the word that she will take any, man or woman, brave enough to make the journey west to the unknown lands. Only the strong of heart and arm need apply for the way is perilous and the Skrælings numerous. Come, join her, and discover the new world.

Welcome all lovers of Vikings and their grand adventures! Myself and the lovely [@Saix] are putting together a Viking roleplay about a ship and crew bound for the Americas and the adventure therein. 

Set in 1004, immediately after the Sacking of Thetford, players will take on the role of ships crew joining the service of Lady Åse. Each character will of course have their own stories and personalities, but our goals are the same. Adventure, fame, and fortune!

This is a general interest check for the moment to see if anyone wants to come along with us!
