My goal here beyond giving back to our Society, is to learn enough that I can do all the things that a well to do Norse nobleman would do when living on an estate in the Orkneys in the late 800's.
Persona Biography
Born (853CE Gregorian) on a farm near Trondheim in what becomes Norway. Fostered to a Jarl's family. At 21 winters, joined Konungr Harald Hårfagre and Jarl Sigurd Eysteinsson in capturing the Orkneys. Took up an estate in the Orkneys serving Jarl and Konungr. It is now the 6th year of Turf-Einar Rognvaldsson's rule in Orkney and 24th year of Konungr Harald's rule.
My estate ranches cattle and sheep, farms, and fishes. Good places to trade are in Dublin longphort, Jorvik, Oslo, and Manx.
