The Ulfrikssons group is looking for new members all the time. We can fit lots of types of characters, warriors, musicians, servants, entertainers, and more. OOCly, you must be willing to learn how to roleplay in groups. A lot of good stuff goes on in our feasts! And sometimes we have plots that have a lot of people involved. It's okay if it takes some time getting comfortable with, and we'll help you in any way we can.
If anything here interests you, whisper Ulfrik and we'll set something up.
Slaves and servants
Slaves (Thralls) / Servants
Seeking slaves or free persons that are skilled in the following areas..
- Musicians, or the ability to sing (even yell very loudly in rhyme) the accomplishments of the Ulfrikssons and other folk songs. Can be taught. Ability to play instruments also good.
- Dancers, women that can shake their shit on a table while everyone eats dinner. No real experience or skill required, as it's just entertaining a bunch of barbarians.
- Household duties, cleaning, cooking, and sometimes just aiding in preparation of the meal or serving it.
- Livestock experience, such as birthing animals, shoveling shit, feeding them, and caring for them.
- Strong men or beasts, those with potential to be trained into gladiators. No experience necessary, and can be taught the dice system by Ulfrik.
Warriors and fighters looking for work
Hired Warriors
Right now, the Ulfrikssons are looking for warriors. Does not have to be Danish, or any knowledge of viking. Though must follow their customs once taught, swear fealty, and be able to kill and raid those that might be innocent. OOCly, you will need to learn how to use the dice system, and we'll be happy to help you learn, no problem. Here's the IC posting on the Tether's corkboard!
The message seemed to be tacked up, in English and in Danish, but by a servant's hand.
"The Ulfrikson clan is searching for hired spearmen, archers, and warriors of every caliber. The pay will be five platinum a month, and a warm bed and hot meals on our land (located in the upload section of TGT under the name Ulvholme). There will be women available to grope, friendship, and ale that will pour throughout eternity.
We are looking for men, and only men. Must have weapon skill, must be able to murder, pillage, steal, and ruin lives. No sissy boys. Does not have to be men of North, but must follow our customs. Will have to take an oath, and if broken, fingers and limbs will be broken and you will be dismissed.
Contact Ulfrik, son of Ulfrik, or leave a message with one of the servants."
The paper has a crude print of their seal, a standing wolf.

We're not looking for any gods, goddesses or demigods, sorry! They just mess with our continuity too much.
