It's another vlog day, and this week, it's all about the Norse. Let's hit it!

Question: How much bigger, physically, are the Aesir Gods than the non-Aesir Gods? How much bigger physically are non-Aesir Gods than normal humans? How much bigger physically CAN the non-Aesir gods get than normal humans?

Question: Is Odin as colossal of a jerk to his brothers as he is to... everyone who does not meet the criteria 'NOT being a dick to this person will help prevent Ragnarok'?

Question: Is it ever explained what happened to Vili and Ve? After the creation myth, they seem to disappear.

Question: Why will Baldur go to Hel when he dies? Shouldn't he end up in Valhalla (or at least in Folkvangr)? Isn't he everyone's favorite person ever?

Question: After looking up seidr & learning men were considered effeminate if they used it, I'm curious about how the Aesir view the three fate purviews and male scions who use them. I'd imagine Magic has a bit of a stigma but what about Mystery & Prophecy?

Question: What is the difference between Helheim and Niflheim. I have seen both being used as Hel's house.

Question: What happens when a Titan with Ultimate Stamina dies and comes back? Does the concept they represent return to normal?

Question: How do you handle the Norse goddess Idun? She's technically not either Aesir, Vanir or giant but as the daughter of Ivaldi, a dwarf or svartalfar. My personal take on it is that she short and childlike looking. Half because she's a dwarf and half because she's the goddess of youth.

Next time, we're going to talk about characters and PCs and fun stuff related to playing and running them. See you then!
