Viking on LoreWeaver

How the story keeps its shape.

See how memory and lore work
01

Memory

A feud that lasts a generation.

Memories record who killed whom and what was paid for it, with the story time and the place. When the dead man’s cousin rides into your yard three sessions later, the storyteller knows the grudge he carries.

02

LoreMap

Every household on one map.

Give each family and chieftain a lore card, and the LoreMap links the ones that share tags or name each other. Label the links yourself, such as married into or in feud with, to see where everyone stands.

03

Reputation

A name people know.

The Reputation template climbs when you protect or spare someone and drops when you steal or betray. Raise it high enough and strangers react to your name before you give it.

04

Raids

Shield walls and dice.

Dice Combat starts a fight whenever you attack. Each blow rolls a d20 against the enemy’s defense, the enemy strikes back while it stands, and the fight ends when one side falls.

05

Two Paths

How the saga ends.

Two Paths counts each time you show mercy and each time you show cruelty. Deep into the story, it compares the two and steers toward the ending you earned.

06

World builder

A fjord and a grudge in one line.

Describe your saga in a sentence, such as two brothers who inherit one longship, and the world builder writes the premise, the households as lore cards, and the scene you open in.

FAQ

Viking roleplay questions, answered.

01Is the viking setting historically grounded?

The official saga world is set in Iceland in 999, the winter before the country votes on the Christian god, with feuds settled through the law. In a world of your own, the storyteller follows your lore cards, so you can stay close to history or bring in gods and monsters.

02Can I play a raider with combat and dice?

Yes. Dice Combat rolls your attacks against an enemy’s defense, and Skill Checks roll a d20 for risky moves like leaping onto another ship. Both install from the Loom’s templates in one click.

03Can a feud carry across many sessions?

Yes, as long as it stays one story. Memories carry every session of a campaign, the recap keeps each open plan and deadline with its story time, and you can pin the killing that started it all so it is part of every reply.

04Are there viking worlds I can play now?

Yes. The official world Iceland, 999 puts you in a family whose son has killed a man, with no king to appeal to and every chieftain wanting something before summer. It plays free for 20 replies without an account.

05Can I add Norse gods and monsters?

Yes. Give each god or creature a lore card with its temper and its rules, and it joins the scene when named. Or start fresh: describe a fjord with a troll under its bridge in one line, and the world builder sets it up.
