⚔️ Hammerheart ⚔️



Hammerheart follows the story of a young bear named Knut who loses his family to the vicious Ravnrike tribe. After traveling the Scandinavian landscape and meeting with other tribes, he quickly discovers that he is far from being the only animal harmed by the raven warriors, and joins forces with their other victims in hopes to topple the Raven Empire for good.
Hammerheart takes place during the 9th century in Scandinavia (and partly in Iceland). At this time, Denmark has begun raiding and settling in England, quickly becoming a powerful and rich country as a result of its raids. Throughout the Scandinavian landscape, there are several different tribes, each being made up of different animals and each having their own distinct culture and reputation.

🐻 Bjørnstamme 🐻

🇳🇴 The Bear Tribe 🇳🇴

”B-jurn-stam-eh”

Bjørnstamme is known for its strong, stoic, and incredibly powerful warriors. The members of this tribe are often muscular, tall and experienced in the art of war. The warriors of Bjørnstamme are regarded as intimidating by most other tribes, however the bears do indeed have a soft side - they are respectful and fair when it comes to battle, and outside of battle they are a close knit community. Fish is a popular food within the tribe, and the bears can often be found fishing when they are not fighting. The most common weapon among Bjørnstamme warriors are two hand axes.

🐺 Ulvpakke 🐺

🇳🇴 The Wolf Tribe 🇳🇴

”Ulv-pack-eh”

Ulvpakke is looked down upon by most other tribes. They are labelled as sly and shifty, and are also not trusted by other creatures as they are associated with Fenrir, the legendary wolf who is predicted to swallow the sun in the events of Ragnarök. The wolves of Ulvpakke have very poor diets, living almost entirely off scraps, and are often scrawny in appearance. As they have no industry of any kind, unlike other tribes, they are also very poor. What the wolves lack in muscle, they make up for in numbers - Ulvpakke is the largest tribe in Norway. The tribe members are also known to be “jokers” and take very little seriously. Even battle is viewed as a game to them. Women are treated as equals in Ulvpakke, and often drink and fight with the men. The most common weapon among Ulvpakke warriors are spears and knives.

👑 Ravnrike 👑

🇩🇰 The Raven Tribe 🇩🇰

”Rah-ven-reek”

Ravnrike is the most feared and powerful tribe in all of Scandinavia. They are not the only tribe to be pillaging England, but they have certainly taken the most land and and goods. While many of the other tribes only rely on one or two industries, Ravnrike has several sources of income, such as cloth, weaponry, food and stone. Ravnrike owns several different castles across both Scandinavia and Britain. They also view themselves as being closer to the gods than other species as Odin is said to keep raven messengers. While the warriors of Ravnrike may not look too powerful, they are ruthless and will kill whatever stands in their path to victory, even their fellow Norsemen. Ravnrike is the largest tribe in Denmark - the other Danish tribes have been more of less wiped out completely as a result of Ravnrike’s selfish and careless behaviour. The most common weapon among Ravnrike warriors are swords - they are also infamous for their use of fire in battle.

❄️ Katterklan ❄️

🇸🇪 The Lynx Tribe 🇸🇪

”Kat-er-klan”

Katterklan is known to be the most outgoing and boisterous of the tribes. The lynxes of Katterklan probably spend more time drinking and partying than they do fighting. Members of Katterklan love snow sports, particularly skiing, and use it as a method of transportation as well as a form of entertainment. The lynxes of this tribe are fast and athletic. Their main industry is wood, which is often purchased by other tribes for firewood, weaponry and craft. Katterklan warriors often live in large households, either made of friends of biological family members, as they are sociable creatures who enjoy the company of their kin. The most common weapon among Katterklan warriors are bows and arrows.

🗡 Hjortfamilj 🗡

🇸🇪 The Reindeer Tribe 🇸🇪

”Yort-fam-il”

Hjortfamilj are perhaps the richest tribe in all of Scandinavia after Ravnrike. This tribe values education, good food, music, and beauty. The reindeer of Hjortfamilj are often feminine in appearance, regardless of their sex, and enjoy the finer things in life. Despite their sophisticated lifestyles, Hjortfamilj warriors are trained in the art of war. They are particularly excellent swordsmen. The most common weapon among Hjortfamilj warriors are swords and (less so) long Dane axes.

🌊 Sjóheimarr 🌊

🇮🇸 The Aquatic Tribe 🇮🇸

”Shoe-high-mer”

Sjóheimarr is known to be the most peaceful and friendly of the tribes. Unlike the other tribes, the members of Sjóheimarr have no interest in invading other lands, and are more preoccupied with caring for their own land. Sjóheimarr is made up of several different sea creatures, as this tribe tends to be more tolerant of other species. The warriors of Sjóheimarr are barely warriors - the only thing that really motivates them to fight is their love for their community and land. Sjóheimarr owns a thriving cloth and wool industry - the members of this tribe can often be found wearing warm and wooly clothing as they live so far up North. The most common weapon among Sjóheimarr warriors are harpoons.
