Hamlet of Helheim

Located just past Einar Skerry and Torvaldsmark lies a small Hamlet, a Hamlet which rests within Torvaldsland and is held by the might of the North. Thassa with her glittering green waters guides you into the harbor, while those less sea faring can reach this settlement via venturing through the treacherous Northern forest.

Those who reside here can be welcoming yet also wary of strangers. It's location allows the land to be bountiful in regard to fertile land and hunting game. The Hamlet can offer a fresh start and a new beginning to those who come to her shores, seeking out a peaceful existence.

Torvaldsland can be unforgiving and dangerous for those who do not know how to survive within it's chilled embrace. However, those inhabitants who call Helheim home have learned to thrive, and have managed to build a place where anyone, regardless of who you were or where you came from, can learn, grow and truly enjoy what the North has to offer. Do not mistake their hospitality for cowardice, they are not afraid to defend their beloved hamlet and those with in.

Welcome to Hamlet of Helheim!

Room Rules:

Rule 1: Multiplayer Gorean (MPG) Characters:
We will allow MPG characters in Helheim under the following guidelines.
• You must wear the MPG tag in all of your codes at all times, inside the home and especially when visiting Site Owned rooms within the Gor Realm.

Rule 2: Please remember, this is Torvaldsland, not the south. Do not expect the bondmaids and Free Women to behave as those of the south, bondmaids are outgoing and lively, demure behavior is not something often seen in Torvaldsland.
Free Women of Torvaldsland have a wider latitude in their behavior than those of the south. They are known to be brash and bold, stern and authoritative because in the absence of their men, they were left to run the household.

Rule 3: This is gor, Men rule!
