    I thought it was pretty funny how completely similar mine and my brudder's one was, except for the temperament stuff! And anyone who knows us both will tell you I am much more "gregarious" to a fault at time! I can feign surly when necessary, though!

    Your Viking Personality: The tougher Vikings might let you on the boat, but generally only when they need ballast. You are strong and tireless, frequently shouldering burdens that would tire lesser men. You're not a "berserker", but you're among the toughest sane Vikings around.

    A long sea voyage aboard a Viking longboat would be difficult for you, but you might be able to manage it. Other Vikings consider you "one of the guys".

    People tend to treat you like a doormat, generally because they know they can get away with it. Other Vikings would be calling you "tree-hugging hippie peacenik" if the phrase had been invented.

    Eðna Sheeptipper

    (Well, actually, that wouldn't really be your name -- since you're female, your name would be something like "Eðna Björnsdottir". But this is the twenty-first century, and you want to be known for who you are, not for who your father was, right? Right.)

    Your Viking Personality: The tougher Vikings might let you on the boat, but generally only when they need ballast. You have a thirst for battle -- unfortunately, you're not terribly good at it. You probably know which end of a sword to hold, but you're not a fearsome fighter by any stretch of the imagination.

    A long sea voyage aboard a Viking longboat would be difficult for you, but you might be able to manage it. Other Vikings would consider you "one of the guys" if you were a guy. (But even though you're a woman, they still think you're all right.)

    Your Viking Name is...
    Katla Oakenhawk
    (Well, actually, that wouldn't really be your name -- since you're female, your name would be something like "Katla Björnsdottir". But this is the twenty-first century, and you want to be known for who you are, not for who your father was, right? Right.)

    Your Viking Personality: You're a fearsome Viking, but you aren't completely uncivilized. The other Vikings make fun of you for that. You have a thirst for battle, and tend to strike first and think later. As a Viking, you're one of the "berserkers", and rush into battle with no clothes on. If the sight of you naked isn't enough to disable the enemy, your sword certainly will be..

    You would have a very tough time making a long sea voyage in a Viking longboat. Other Vikings tolerate your presence, though they're not quite sure if they can trust you to fight dirty.

    You have a fairly pragmatic attitude towards life, and tend not to expend effort in areas where it would be wasted. You sometimes come off as a bit of a snob. Vikings are not snobbish people -- they either like you, or they kill you. Try to be more like a Viking.



    Pretty funny !! The quotes in red are fairly true!! The naked part suits (birthday suits?), since, if you remember, I have trouble getting my clothes on properly (several episodes of inside out and front to back). And yes, the sight of me charging naked with a sword in my hand might indeed frighten anyone!! I'm not a dirty fighter in the least, but a berserker for sure!!

    I did actually hug a tree on Saturday - mainly because I was so glad to be at the top of a steep hill

    You might grumble a bit at the lack of amenities on board a Viking longboat, but you can handle it. Vikings make fun of you all the time. Not always behind your back, either.
    People who've known you for a while don't always trust your word. Other Vikings would be calling you "tree-hugging hippie peacenik" if the phrase had been invented.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Actually there were several "Sheeptipper's" but no "cow tippers". So far
    I am the only "Cowgrabber"
