( HUMANS )


Humans

The dominant life form of Midgard. Humans were not blessed by Yggdrasil, as the Aesir, Vanir and Light Elves were. This led the Aesir to thinking of them as subjects, though they inhabited a different Realm, thanks to being truly god-like in comparison. During the Cold War, nerves were frazzled to the point of breaking — helped by Loki — and nuclear weapons were fired. Most of Midgard became uninhabitable, and populations traveled to the north and south to survive.

Humanity was set to be decimated during Ragnarök, repopulated slowly after, but they were spared by the efforts of Odin's champion, Meja Urdahl, who only defeated Jormungandr with the stipulation that humanity be saved.

In the time that followed, humanity worked to slowly rebuild their way of life on the washed-clean Midgard. They have several city-states, bastions of their old powers, and have done a remarkably small amount of squabbling among themselves.
