🪨 Runestones of the Ancients

Across meadows, forests, and swamps, runestones whisper fragments of the past. They warn the unready, guide the faithful, and record the deeds of forgotten clans.

• Start Temple Stones - Initiation verses and warnings for new warriors.
• Lake & Ruin Stones - Tales of voyages, betrayals, and oaths sworn under stormlight.
• Mine & Burial Stones - Notes on lost veins, cursed earth, and the price of digging too deep.

🙏 The Pantheon & Their Domains

The reforged realms are not silent. Each god claims a face of the world-granting boons to the faithful and trials to the proud.

• Odin - The unseen watcher. Wisdom for those who endure, ruin for those who boast.
• Thor - Storm-lord of thunder; mountains rumble at his passing.
• Nerthus - Swamp Mother; free her from corruption and the mire will breathe again.
• Freyr & Freya - Wild growth, hunt, and hearth; the forest keeps their secrets.
• Njord - Keeper of tides; the ocean remembers every debt.
• Baldur - Light reborn; sacrifice and renewal entwined.
• Bragi - Song and story; those who listen learn the paths others miss.

🔮 The Power of Prayer

Prayer in Reforged is a covenant, not a whisper. At altars you may alter weather, earn blessings, or rouse guardians that test your worth. Away from shrines, world prayers still carry-though the gods are less gentle.

• Offerings shape outcomes-meat and metal for bounty, trophies for favor, hubris for doom.
• Success shortens the waiting; failure draws things best left unnamed.
• On rare grace, new life appears: creatures to tame, guide, or fear.

🏛️ Dungeons, Guardians & Oaths

Below the earth, stone remembers. Boss chambers and mines are reforged against tricks and cowardice; secret doors open only for the worthy. Guardians bar the deepest paths, and some must fall before old bonds-like Nerthus’ chains - can break.

• Anti-cheese wards, pressure-plate exits, and oath-locked chambers.
• New trials and trophies-proofs for gods and guilds alike.
• Runic signs mark the brave route… and the foolish shortcut.

⚖️ Coins, Quests & The Living World

From Copper → Silver → Gold, the new coinage measures more than wealth-it marks reputation. Traders, priests, and outlaws judge by deed: tasks posted, contracts taken, oaths kept.

• Hundreds of quests bind clans to towns and wilds.
• Humanoids carry coin pouches; shrines demand proper tribute.
• Noticeboards track favors owed and legends forged.

🐺 Mounts, Crafts & Survival

Boars saddle, deer bear banners, and carts creak along ancient roads. New stations, tools, and recipes turn camps into keeps; wards bind torch, timber, and tribe against the night.

• Horns to pocket mounts; wagons for long hauls.
• Reworked armor lines and rage-fueled abilities.
• The hearth matters-food, fire, and song keep the dark at bay.

In Valheim Reforged, prayer is power, steel is scripture, and every runestone is a page of your saga. Write it well.

👑 Odin - The Allfather

Topic: The Call of the Allfather

When Loki’s poison frays the weave of the Nine Realms, Odin does not send a god - he chooses you, a mortal Einherjar carried by Valkyrie to a Valheim twisted by trickery.

Your charge is both simple and impossible: halt the trickster’s final design and restore the balance the Aesir could not.

You will not walk alone. Odin’s whispering envoy, Hrafnir, will needle, warn, and steer you through the realm the gods dare not tread themselves.

“The gods have played their game. Now it’s the mortals’ turn to win it.”

🪶 Hrafnir the Whispering Head - Odin’s Lost Skald

Topic: The Voice that Never Died

Once a skald and seer of the old courts, Hrafnir sought truths even the gods forbade. For his hubris, Odin took his body but left his head to speak eternal wisdom. Now bound within a lantern, his flickering eyes watch the realms, guiding mortal champions with sarcasm, riddles, and reluctant wisdom. Aid him, endure his taunts, and the whispers of the Allfather himself may one day lead you to glory.

“I’ve forgotten more about glory than you’ll ever learn, little Einherjar. But if you listen... perhaps I’ll let you borrow a verse or two.”

🌫 Nynjar the Lonesome - Mourner of the Mist

Topic: The Song of Drowned Kings

High above the waterfall, Nynjar’s tagelharpa weeps for a fallen king; each note is a debt unpaid.

He offers you a key and a burden - set right what the waters took, and follow the red-inked paths on old charts to those veiled stones where the truth still sings.

🌲 Haldor the Silent - Watcher of the Wilds

Topic: Lessons of the Hunt

Beneath a camouflaged lean-to of branches and hides, Haldor tends a low fire and listens to the forest breathe. He speaks little, but every motion teaches - how to track without sound, to strike without cruelty, to take only what the wild offers.

Those who earn his respect may learn the old ways of the hunt - crafted bows, tamed beasts, and the silent patience of the true predator.

“The forest sees everything. The trick is learning to see it back.”

🌱 Cletus the Buck-Toothed - Prophet of Compost

Topic: The Circle of Stink

Between a leaning fence and a complaining outhouse, Cletus tends steaming heaps and glowing turnips like relics of a muck-born faith.

Bring seed, spore, and patience, and he’ll show you how rot becomes harvest - and why the richest fields are born from the worst stink.

🌊 Verrik Salt-Borne - Whisperer of Waves

Topic: Storms and Silence

Where the surf gnaws at broken timbers and gulls cry to empty skies, Verrik mends his nets beside a cauldron that never cools. The salt has carved his skin like driftwood, and his eyes hold the color of storms remembered.

He listens to the tides as others do to sermons, hearing voices in the foam that speak of drowned kings and sleeping leviathans. To earn his trust, bring him bait, patience, and courage enough to ask what the sea truly hungers for.

Those who linger too long on his dock claim to see lights beneath the waves and shapes moving just beyond the moon’s reach.

“The sea keeps every secret, boy. Some it just whispers louder when it wants them found.”

⛏ Grom Goldsnarl - Warden of the Sealed Mines

Topic: The Gold That Shouldn’t Shine

Loki’s golden curse bled into the veins of Grom’s mine; when the Haugar erupted in midnight slaughter, he collapsed the shafts to dam the dark. Earn his trust at the anvil and on the tunnel floor - clear bones, recover Veigrim’s lost runes, craft lanterns to pierce corruption - and he’ll teach you how to forge renewal from ore the trickster tried to ruin.

🍖 Sturli the Barrel-Bellied-Cook of Shattered Kegs

Topic: Tales of the Tankard

Once bound for Jarl Oakenshield’s hall to deliver provisions to Brunnar the Brewer, Sturli's journey descended into chaos after a drunken contest with Rukk ended in disaster. When the giant stumbled onto his cart, crushed his barrels, and later devoured both pony and proviant, Sturli was left behind with naught but one keg of mead and a heart full of vengeance. Now starving and furious, he calls for travelers to bring proof of the troll’s demise, promising rewards brewed in rage and regret.

🧌 Rukk the Rock-Toothed-Glutton of the Black Forest

Topic: Dimwitted but Hungry

Once a friendly forest giant fond of mead and mischief, Rukk joined Sturli in a contest of drink that neither would remember kindly. Toppled by laughter and ale, he crushed the cook’s cart, then dragged off the pony and feasted till his tusk broke on bone. Now nursing his cracked tusk in a dark cave, Rukk moans in pain and hunger-too dim to know why his new “friend” wishes him dead.

🛡 Jarl Brynjar Oakenshield - Lord of Raids & Refuge

Topic: Oaths of Iron

A former Jomsviking warlord and founder of Thrymsholm, Brynjar rebuilt his honor from ash while wargs and shadow-raiders tore at his borders. Sworn to protect the weak beneath the pines, he commands warriors not with fear but with oaths bound in blood and bronze.

Earn Raid Tokens by breaking the commanders who plague the woods; spend them to summon controlled trials at your Ward, hire battle-hardened mercenaries, and forge your village into a fortress no curse can breach.

Each token is a vow kept, and each defense another stone laid toward the hall he swore to restore.

“Honor is not given by the gods. It’s built, raid by raid.”

🍺 Brunan Meadheart - Master of Fermentation

Topic: The Lost Cask

Once famed for his hearty laugh and honeyed brews, Brunan now sits in silence, his horn untouched and his eyes heavy with worry. His friend Sturli vanished on a trade run through the Black Forest, leaving behind only a broken ring and an empty keg.

He begs you to recover the brewer’s ring and bring word of Sturli’s fate. Do so, and Brunan will reopen his ledger of wild ales and restorative meads - elixirs said to stir courage in the weary and heal wounds of both body and soul.

“A toast means nothing if it’s drunk alone.”

🔮 Veigrim Runeward - Keeper of the Lost Script

Topic: Master of Rune Sockets

Grom’s brother and the mines’ master scribe, Veigrim fled into outlaw lands after the Haugar massacre. He alone carves perfect sockets that bind runes to steel - flame-forged blades, warding shields, shadow-steeds. Recover his lost inscriptions and return the stolen runestones from Keldar’s pit to restore his craft, and he will teach you the socketing rites.

🕳 Keldar the Fallen - The Thief Below

Veigrim’s apprentice took what was not his and fled beneath a waymarker; the earth answered with a hidden mouth.

Recover the satchel and the stolen runestones from the pit’s quiet dead, and return a legacy that should never have left the chisel.

⛓ Dagr Bronzebar - Broker of Chains

Topic: The Iron Deal

Once a Dvergar forge-chief, Dagr sealed the cursed tunnels and fled with prisoners instead of gold - outlaws, raiders, broken souls - and now sells them beneath the trees, far from oaths or judgment. Some call it cowardice, others necessity; Dagr calls it freedom. Complete his trade tasks and decide what price your conscience can pay. “Not all chains are iron. Some are gold… or promises.”

🥩 Gorhald Gutfinder - The Butcher of the Hollow

Topic: The Harvest of Flesh

Beneath the rotting canopy of Bogwitch Hollow, Gorhald Gutfinder plies his gristle-slick trade. Once a war surgeon in the Vanir border wars, he grew too fond of the knife - and too quiet in the screams. Exiled for “unnecessary harvests,” Gorhald vanished into the swamps with his cleavers and crates.

Now he butchers more than meat: trolls, draugr, spirits - whatever bleeds. Some say he speaks to bones before breaking them. Others say he doesn’t need to. If you dare trade with him, don’t ask what it used to be. Just pay. And don’t flinch.

“Meat’s meat. Doesn’t matter if it screams first.”

🧪 Væla the Mireborn - Alchemist of the Bog

Topic: Curses Beneath the Roots

Hidden within a cauldron-cracked hut where moss drips like blood, Væla the Mireborn stirs ancient brews beneath a sagging roof of rot. Once a healer of the Vanir, she drank from the same cursed spring that poisoned Nerthus’ grove and awoke the draugr.

Now she trades not in gold, but in essence and memory - distilling potions from spider ichor, bog-toad gall, and the breath of forgotten spirits. She whispers to roots, bargains with worms, and knows every poison that blooms where sunlight fears to tread.

Cross her with silver tongue or steel hand, and the swamp itself may claim you.

“Every cure was born from a corpse. Every secret from something better left buried.”

⛪ Brother Aldric - Last of Lindisfarne

Topic: Ashes of Lindisfarne

He survived where his brothers did not; the tide took their voices and left him with prayers that taste like salt and ash.

Earn his trust and he’ll guide you through drowned halls and bitter truths - toward the root of Loki’s rot and the ember of faith that refuses to die.

🍄 Landvættir - The Buried Stalker

Topic: Meadows - Ambush Parasite

Beneath soft soil and wildflowers lurks the Landvættir - not a guardian, but a parasite. Born from rot and spores, it burrows under the turf, still as stone, until the tremor of footsteps betrays prey above.

When disturbed, the ground erupts in claws and screeches. Its fungal shell disguises it as earth itself, and those who fall to its maw are never seen again - only their weapons left jutting from the dirt like tombstones.

🍄 Haugar Brute

Topic: Meadows - Fungal Juggernaut

Twice the height of their kin, Haugar Brutes are walking masses of fungus and flesh, their skulls crowned with swollen caps that ooze spores like blood. Each thunderous step splits roots and stone alike.

They know no words and wield no weapons - only the crushing weight of their fists. When a Brute awakens, even the air seems to hold its breath.

🍄 Haugar Shaman

Topic: Meadows - Fungal Caster

Twisted by rot and ritual, the Haugar Shaman stands as the will of the fungal horde. From its hollow throat pours venomous chant, and the air thickens with spores that blind and burn.

Rooted deep in damp caverns, these creatures command the Brutes with low, droning calls. Those who hear it too long begin to dream in decay.

🍄 Fungal Spores

Topic: Meadows-Corrosive Swarm

Drifting remnants of dying Haugars, these living clouds of rot cling to the air, spreading decay with every breath of wind.

💀 Skeleton (Meadows Variant)

Topic: Meadows - Restless Remains

Bound by cursed soil and forgotten vows, these brittle warriors rise from barrows and battlefields. Their armor is rusted, their blades cracked, but their purpose remains sharp.

Though weaker than their swamp-born cousins, they hunt in silence and strike without hesitation, driven by whispers of unfinished wars.

⚔️ Roaming Outlaws (Skóggangr)

Topic: Meadows - Cursed Raiders

Banished by Jarl Brynjar Oakenshield for breaking the oaths of raid and kin, these condemned men were named Skóggangr - outlaws doomed to walk the wilds. Their crimes stripped them of hearth and hall! their spirits now haunt the night, drawn to plunder they can no longer claim.

They roam the Meadows after dusk, blades rusted yet eager, raiding by habit, not hunger - a warning to all who defy the Jarl’s law.

🐽 Piglet

Topic: Meadows - Domestic Animal

Curious and fearless, these small swine follow the scent of grain and the warmth of campfires. Raise them well, and they will grow into sturdy companions of the farmstead.

🐖 Sow - Keeper of the Sty

Topic: Meadows - Domestic Animal

The sow is the heart of every farmstead. Patient and fierce in equal measure, she guards her piglets from wolves and wanderers alike. Her low grunts echo through the meadows, a reminder that even gentleness carries tusks when threatened.

Fed and kept warm, she yields plenty - meat, hide, and the next generation of her kind.

🐷 Hog - Boar of the Meadows

Topic: Meadows - Domestic Animal

Broad-backed and scar-muzzled, the hog roots deep for food and fights harder for territory. Though tamed by hearth and hand, his wild blood still burns - a single charge from him can topple man or fence alike.

But treat him with respect, and his strength will serve your camp well, providing hide, meat, and the spirit of the wild itself.

Antlered lord of the fields, the stag moves with quiet thunder - a symbol of strength and sacred wildness.

🌊 Nøkk - Whisperer of the Mire

Topic: Meadows - Water Spirit

Born from drowned souls and stagnant pools, the Nøkk lingers where moonlight bends upon the water’s skin. Its song lures wanderers to stillness - not peace, but the cold silence beneath the reeds. Covered in moss and sorrow, these spirits serve their darker kin, the Thalnøkk, dragging offerings to the depths in eternal servitude.

🌑 Thalnøkk - Sentinel of the Drowned King

Topic: Caves - Guardian of the Deep

While the green Nøkken haunt the swamps and rivers, their elder kin - the Thalnøkk - dwell in the flooded caverns beneath the earth. Pale as drowned flesh and silent as the tide, they serve as the royal guard of the Nøkken King, striking down any intruder who dares disturb the deep.

They lurk in darkness, their claws scraping against stone, waiting for the ripple of footsteps or the drip of a careless adventurer’s torch. Unlike their lesser brethren, the Thalnøkk hunt not for hunger, but for duty - bound by ancient pacts written in blood and brine.

“The swamps breed whispers… but the caves keep their silence. Enter, and the Thalnøkk will break it for you.”

🪓 Troll - Cursed Child of Stone

Topic: Black Forest - Giant

Born of stone and sorrow, trolls are the forest’s forgotten children - once wardens of root and river, now twisted by Loki’s spite. Their skin is coarse as granite, their eyes burn with dull fury, and their clubs are trees torn from the ground in rage. When they bellow, the forest itself seems to answer - not in words, but in mourning.

🌿 Björkunnar Nest-Heart of the Withered Grove

Topic: Corruption of the Mother-Tree

Twisted roots and amber resin form these pulsing hollows deep beneath the Black Forest canopy. Once sacred seed-beds of Freya’s grove, they now brood with her fallen offspring - the Björkunnar. Sap drips like blood from their bark, and the air hums with the whispers of those still trapped within. When the nest stirs, the forest answers - and what crawls out bears both the sorrow of the Mother and the venom of Loki.

🕷️ Arachna-Weaver of the Deep Roots

Topic: Black Forest-Dungeon Spider

Born of damp stone and shadowed marrow, the Arachna waits in silence where no wind dares stir. Its webs glisten like frost over bone, spun from the rot of centuries. Those who wander beneath the old roots seldom return - for in the hush between breaths, the forest feeds.

🕷️ Ceiling Arachna-The Hanging Death

Topic: Black Forest-Dungeon Spider

From rafters slick with decay, the Hanging Death descends with neither sound nor mercy. Its fangs pierce faster than thought, and its silk wraps tighter than prayer. Only the echo of falling droplets betrays its feast in the dark.

🕸️ Spider Broodlings-Children of the Webmother

Topic: Black Forest-Spider Swarm

🐗 Wild Boar-Spirit of the Underwood

A relentless hunter that rules the waves with silent precision. Sailors whisper of shadows gliding beneath their hulls - cold eyes that track the scent of blood across leagues of sea.

🐚 Leviathan - The Living Island

A myth given shape by tide and time, the Leviathan drifts through the deep, its shell a cradle of coral and ancient trees. Many mistake its back for land - until the “island” begins to move.

Topic: King of the Nøkk

Long ago, Hafviðrkonungr ruled the coasts and currents, a mortal king whose voice could calm storms and whose oaths bound sea to stone. He was chosen by Njord, not for might, but for his devotion to the balance between land and tide.

But when the seas turned black and Njord fell silent, Hafviðrkonungr descended into the deep seeking answers. Loki answered instead.

Twisted by sorrow and silence, the Seaking returned from the depths changed, his will no longer his own. The throne he once took in honor now binds him in penance, overgrown by the sea’s grief and time’s decay.

He does not rage. He remembers.

🦌 Eikthyrnir - The Mighty Stag

Topic: The Mighty Stag

In ages past, Eikthyr stood upon the highest root of Yggdrasil, his antlers crowned in stormlight, his breath stirring the sacred winds. He was a warden of the primal wilds, chosen to watch the groves where gods once walked.

But when Loki shattered the Ásfangstein and scattered its pieces across the realms, Eikthyr was cursed. Twisted into a creature of fury, he was bound to the meadows he once roamed in peace.

Now the runes that once honored him are his shackles. Return them to this altar, and he will rise.

Not to protect… but to challenge all who seek Baldur’s release.

🐗 Gullinbursti - The Fallen Herald

Topic: The Golden Boar

Forged in the hearths of Svartálfaheimr, Gullinbursti once bore the blessings of Freyr himself - his bristles gleaming with sunlight, his hooves spreading life through every furrowed field.

But when Loki shattered Freyr’s Ásfangstein, the divine bond was torn asunder. Madness seeped into the beast’s soul, twisting gold to pitch, and turning divine purpose into chaos.

Now his bristles, once radiant with harvest light, writhe black with corruption - a living curse upon the soil he once blessed.

Deep within the shadows, the fallen herald rages still, blind to the god he once served.

🌳 Björkunnar Jötunn - The Stormroot Father

Topic: Corrupted Guardian of the Mother-Tree

Born of Freya’s sap and Thor’s thunder, Varkundr was the storm given root - the first guardian of the wilds and protector of the Mother-Tree. His roar was the rain, his breath the wind through leaves, and all creatures bowed before his strength.

But when Loki’s venom spread through the veins of the world, it twisted his purpose into wrath. In trying to purge the blight, he scorched the grove, shattering Eirawen and breaking Freya’s heart. From his despair sprouted the Björkunnar, children of bark and sorrow, forever reaching toward a mother that no longer answers.

Now the Stormroot Father endures as a husk of lightning and grief, bound beneath the weeping roots - his thunder a mourning cry for what the forest once was.

🕷 Skæra - The Webmother

Topic: The Webmother

Before the curse, she was known only as Skæra - a wisewoman of the grove whose voice could calm storms and stir seeds to bloom. When the forests darkened and Loki whispered from the roots, Skæra listened. Her visions turned to silk and shadow.

Bound by venom and prophecy, she wove her own flesh into web, birthing a swarm of broodlings beneath the earth.

Some say she traded her name for foresight. Others claim she saw too much - and became what she feared most.

Deep in the buried halls, her shrine still pulses with tension. She does not hunger for flesh… but for the unraveling of fate.

✝ Father Elias - The Heretic’s Fall

Topic: The Heretic’s Fall

These catacombs, long submerged by the river’s vengeance, guard the tomb of Father Elias - the heretic priest whose final ritual drowned an entire village.

Statues of weeping saints leer from algae-coated niches, and soggy manuscripts whisper forbidden liturgies.

At the heart of the flood lies Elias himself, risen to judge any who disturb his watery grave.

🐻 Grimmbjörn - The Úlfhéðnar-Slayer

Topic: Mountain - The Úlfhéðnar-Slayer

A towering colossus of white fur, Grimmbjörn roams the frozen peaks draped in tattered scarves - each a trophy torn from a fallen Úlfhéðnar wolf-warrior.

His claws have shattered shields and spirits alike, and the mountain itself quakes beneath his wrath.

When his roar rolls through the crags, even the fiercest warriors feel the chill of the Úlfhéðnar-Slayer’s fury.

🐉 Jörmungandr - The Midgard Serpent

Topic: Ocean - The End of Days

Born of Loki’s chaos, Jörmungandr coils beneath the waves, vast enough to girdle Midgard itself. Even the mightiest longship is but driftwood before its shadow.

When the serpent rises, the sea heaves crimson and thunder follows - a herald of the storm that ends all things.

Those who glimpse its gaze seldom live to tell the tale.

🎶 Bragi - God of Poetry

Topic: God of Poetry

In the golden halls of Asgard, Bragi’s voice wove verses that calmed gods and kindled hope. He sang of love and valor, of grief made sacred, and of heroes remembered in song.

But when the realms fractured and Loki’s deceit spread like shadow, Bragi fell silent. Not from fear - but mourning.

His altar, once ringing with hymn and harp, now lies hushed in the meadows. Yet the shrine still listens… and memory itself is divine.

🌞 Baldur - The Sun God

Topic: The Sun God

Before shadow fell, Baldur walked among mortals as the light of dawn itself - golden-haired, beloved by all, untouched by pain. Flowers turned toward his passing, and even death dared not draw near.

But prophecy whispered of his fall. Loki’s deceit planted the seed, and mistletoe struck where no blade could. The world wept, and the meadows dimmed.

This altar remembers his warmth, though the light has long since faded.

🌾 Freyr - The Bounty Giver

Topic: The Bounty Giver

This moss-covered altar once stood as the beating heart of the harvest. Beneath Freyr’s gaze, the Black Forest bore fruit, fields ripened, and hunger was but a story.

But Loki struck at the roots of prosperity. Freyr was deceived, his laughter silenced, his soul bound within an Ásfangstein. The curse seeped into the land - twisting crops, darkening trees, and waking beasts.

Only by reclaiming the Soulshard can Freyr’s light return.

🕊️ Freya - Mother of Renewal

Topic: The Mother-Tree and the Vanir’s Grief

Once, Freya’s joy fed every root and river - her laughter the song of spring, her tears the birth of life itself. From her heartwood she shaped the Mother-Tree, and from its sap she gave life to Eirawen and Varkundr, guardians of the wilds.

But when Loki’s venom seeped into the veins of the world, her gifts turned to grief. The grove burned, her children fell, and the Mother-Tree began to bleed amber sorrow. Freya’s voice faded into the wind, yet the forest still dreams of her touch beneath the weeping roots.

Only when her fragments are made whole shall the cycle of renewal begin anew.

🌿 Nerthus - The Earthmother

Topic: The Earthmother

Long before rot took root, Nerthus was the Vanir’s breath in the soil - goddess of loam, rivers, and spring’s first bloom.

But when Loki’s lies coiled through grove and temple, she was bound in golden roots, cursed to weep beneath her sacred waters. Her worshipers drowned in devotion, her groves twisted into swamps.

The Bellflower Shard shackled her heart. Now only ritual, sorrow, and courage can stir her again.

🌊 Njord - Lord of Sea and Wind

Topic: The Tidefather’s Call

Where the storm meets the shore and salt devours stone, Njord rules - master of trade winds, safe harbors, and the fickle favor of the deep. To sailors and wanderers, his breath fills sails and stills the waves that hunger for ships.

Yet Loki’s poison has fouled even his waters. Whirlpools now swallow vessels whole, and the gulls cry of drowned gods. His altars lie barnacled and silent, awaiting offerings from those bold enough to seek his blessing once more.

Bring him tokens of the sea - pearls, scales, and salt-born treasures - and perhaps Njord will calm the tides and whisper the paths that lead home.

“The sea gives, the sea takes - but to those I favor, it returns what was lost.”

❄ Skadi - Huntress of Ice and Snow

Topic: Huntress of Ice and Snow

Skadi, the mountain goddess, is honored at frost-rimmed cairns.

A huntress of the peaks, she blesses survival in frozen heights, her arrows as sharp as her storms.

⚡ Thor - God of Storms

Topic: God of Storms

Thunderous is his dais, struck with hammers and oaths.

Thor, protector of clans and breaker of giants, is the storm given flesh.

⚖ Tyr - God of Honor and Law

Topic: God of Honor and Law

His stone altar bears scars of sacrifice.

Tyr, who bound Fenrir with his own hand lost, is remembered as oath-keeper and god of justice.

🕯 Hel - Ruler of the Dead

Topic: Ruler of the Dead

A shadow-veiled shrine to Hel stands in frost-bound realms.

Ruler of the underworld, she guides lost souls through silence and sorrow.

🪵 Clutter - Forgotten Remnants of Civilization

Topic: The Loot Beneath the Dust

Scattered across the realms lie the forgotten traces of those who came before - toppled crates, cracked urns, barrels of stale ale, and baskets left to rot beneath the sun. What seems like simple debris hides the spoils of survival and ruin alike.

The Clutter System breathes life into every ruin, camp, and cave. Each pile has a 30% drop chance and respawns after five in-game nights, offering two distinct droptables - Inspect and Destroy - each with unique rewards. No two heaps are ever the same.

Loot can range from humble fare to rare wonders: food, rare meals, potions, materials, arrows, scrolls, maps, coins, and even traces of monsters. Some are treasures abandoned in haste - others, offerings best left untouched.

“A scavenger’s trash heap to one, a treasure hoard to another. Listen close - the land remembers who left it behind.”

⚔️ Socket System Explained

Most equipment in Valheim Reforged can be socketed with runestones to unlock extra powers. The socketing tools can be found in clutters or directly at the NPCs.

Socket Colors

• 🔴 Red (Weapons & Shields) - Active skills and combos that consume 💥 Rage instead of stamina. (Shields count as weapons; e.g., Shield Bash.)
• 🔵 Blue - Over-time buffs like stamina regen, resistances, or health recovery.
• 🟢 Green (Transmog) - Visual only; changes appearance without altering stats.
• 🟡 Yellow (Armor & Capes) - Utility abilities such as double jump, dual wield, or comfort bonuses (effect depends on slot).

How to Socket Items

1. Unequip the item and keep it in your inventory.
2. Open the socketing tool and drag & drop the item into it.
3. Weapons (1H/2H) have a maximum number of red sockets.
4. Inject runestones - read each rune’s description to see where it can be applied.
5. To remove a rune, use pliers (⚠ 50% chance the removed rune breaks).

How Socketing Works

• Items can have one or more sockets depending on type.
• Not every rune fits every socket - check rune descriptions.
• Effects can change based on where the rune is placed (weapon part, armor slot, cape).
• Runes provide combos, passives, utility, or cosmetic effects.
• Combos powered by red runestones use 💥 Rage, which is built up by consuming 🍄 mushroom-based dishes.

Weapons & Shields = 🔴 Active (Rage-based) • Armor & Capes = 🟡 Utility • Anywhere = 🔵 Passives • Cosmetic = 🟢 Transmog

⚔️ Dual Wielding

Topic: Weapon Mastery - Unchained Combat

Embrace the freedom of true combat mastery - dual wielding allows you to mix and match swords, daggers, maces, and axes in any combination you desire. Whether it’s mace × mace, sword × mace, or dagger × axe - the choice is entirely yours.

This fighting style doesn’t consume 💥 Rage, but you won’t be able to perform any combo attacks. If you choose to slay your enemies this way, you do it with pure skill and determination - no divine fury, no rage, just you and your blades.

🪓 Battleaxe

Topic: Two-Handed Weapon - Cleaving Power

A brutal weapon of raw strength and wide sweeping arcs, capable of striking multiple foes with a single swing. Favored by berserkers for its devastating charged spin attacks and perfect synergy with red runestones.

Combos consume 💥 Rage instead of stamina - Rage is built up by consuming 🍄 mushroom-based dishes. The GIF shows an example of how these strikes look in action.

🏹 Bows

Topic: Ranged Weapon - Precision & Control

Bows allow skilled hunters to strike from afar, rewarding timing and accuracy. Each draw builds power and precision, with runestones enhancing elemental arrows, faster draws, or critical headshots.

🔨 Maces

Topic: One-Handed Weapon - Crushing Power

The Mace is the weapon of choice for those who favor brute force over finesse. Each strike delivers a thunderous impact capable of shattering bones and staggering even the toughest foes. When paired with red runestones, maces gain devastating combo attacks that can flatten entire groups.

🗡️ Swords

Topic: One-Handed Weapon - Balance & Precision

The Sword is the timeless weapon of warriors - fast, reliable, and perfectly balanced between offense and defense. Its strikes flow with precision and grace, allowing for quick follow-ups and controlled parries. Empowered by red runestones, swordmasters unleash deadly combo chains that combine speed and accuracy.

🛡️ Spears & Shields

Topic: Defensive Weapon Set - Precision & Control

The Spear and Shield combination offers the perfect balance between reach, defense, and tactical mastery. Spears strike swiftly from behind cover, while the shield provides both protection and opportunity - a well-timed Shield Bash can stagger foes and open them to counterattacks. When enhanced with red runestones, this pairing unlocks disciplined combo sequences blending thrusts and bashes.

🍖 The Feast of the Gods!

Topic: Cooking, Brewing, and Preservation

In Valheim Reforged, food is far more than a necessity - it is an art of survival and a pillar of progression. Every meal tells a story of what you’ve conquered, gathered, or hunted across the realms.

Players can harvest grains, fruits, roots, and meats from every biome, then refine them into hearty dishes, invigorating soups, and potent brews. From simple roasted boar to divine feasts worthy of the gods, each recipe affects health, stamina, and resistance in unique ways.

Cooking stations evolve from primitive firepits to full hearth kitchens with cauldrons, fermenters, and curing racks. Proper combinations unlock tiered dishes - hearty meals for battle, endurance stews for long expeditions, and enchanted brews infused with runic reagents.

From harvest to feast, every bite in Valheim Reforged strengthens body, spirit, and saga.

👑 Krumpac - Developer & Main Designer

Topic: The Madmind behind Valheim Reforged

A drunken Viking visionary steering the Reforged ship through storms of bugs and balance disasters. Breaks everything so others can fix it, yells at Odin for updates, and somehow keeps the saga alive. Chaos, mead, and divine inspiration! That’s Krumpac.

🍗 Datys - Systems & Balancing

Topic: Developer for the Food, Mount, and Rune Systems and fixing whatever Krump wrecks up!

Datys is the mad genius behind Reforged’s Food System, Mounts, and Rune Enchanting. When Krumpac breaks the balance (again), Datys is the one who quietly fixes it.. usually while feeding twins and putting out kitchen fires. A true alchemist of chaos, flavor, and numbers.

💀 DefendYourBase - Animations, NPCs & Monsters

Topic: Creator of Animations, NPCs, and Monsters

The mad animator who gave life to Valheim’s most cursed creatures! From majestic bosses to... exploding chickens. If it moves, screams, or hunts you at night, it’s his doing. Chaos forged in Unity and bound by dark imagination.

💻 ProCoder - Website & Tools

Topic: Web Development & Infrastructure

The web wizard of Reforged! always high on creativity (and maybe a bit more). Builds the website, fixes what Krump breaks, and somehow answers messages even when he’s deep in the tunnel. A true digital Viking surviving on code and smoke.

🏰 Carmen - Community Support & Building Enthusiast

Topic: Moderator, Player Support & Building Feedback

The guardian angel (and secret tormentor) of the Reforged community. Helps players install and survive Valheim Reforged — while keeping Krump busy with snapping points, new building piece ideas, and “just one more” request. A true builder of patience and chaos.

Once a guiding star in the Reforged skies, now temporarily orbiting the realm of rest. Though he’s been slacking a bit lately, every Viking knows he’ll return — ready to lead, help, and bring that old spark of wisdom back to the forge.

🐾 Shiva – The Code Diva

Topic: The Mascot & Hidden Mind Behind Valheim Reforged

Shiva is the real brains behind Reforged — a fluffy overlord who watches every compile like it’s a nature documentary. Her debugging process mostly involves walking on keyboards, chasing the mouse (literally), and judging Krumpac’s code from atop the monitor. No update goes live without her final purr of approval… or a random crash mysteriously fixed after a nap.
