DENUO WISH: Thors Warship



Thorfinn is the son of a highly decorated Jomsviking Captain who deflected and ran into hiding. He was incredibly wealthy. For some reason Thors had and kept a Warship in their little island. When Thors was murdered, the boat was left behind and taken as a prize by the Viking Warrior Askeladd. Along with the ship he gained +1 Angry six year old.

Thors boat was the pride of Askeladd's ships. Askeladd, Bjorn and Thorfinn always rode on Thors' boat, Thorfinn often opting to guard the boats when raiding parties happened or he was sulking after a battle. The Boat was the closest he had to a home most of his life.

The boat is designed to hold thirty or more men, ten men are a minimum to row the massive ship. Thors had the power of five men himself.

With a mast standing over twenty feet high, the ship itself is at least thirty feet long. Meant to house loads of treasure with a hold under the flooring, big enough to hold barrels and a six year old. The sides of the boat hold many shields. It was left behind after the battle on London Bridge when Askeladd's band was sent marching Inland.
