Hi guys I'm here to present you my project: a reproduction of the Viking's deepest frozen world, the Helheimr! NEXUS DOWNLOAD : http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/members/managefiles.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Intro: "In Norse mythology, Hel, the location, shares a name with Hel, a female figure associated with the location. In late Icelandic sources, varying descriptions of Hel are given and various figures are described as being buried with items that will facilitate their journey to Hel after their death. In the Poetic Edda, Brynhildr's trip to Hel after her death is described and Odin, while alive, also visits Hel upon his horse Sleipnir. In Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda, Baldr goes to Hel upon death and subsequently Hermóðr uses Sleipnir to attempt to retrieve him." Font. Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hel_(location) ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What is already done: the ambients vary between caves, falls and catacombs and a great underworld fortress with replaced texture for a more immersive and unique features, actually the world is devided into 6 huge cells and some minor but meanwhile i'm workig on adding clutter i'm asking the community if there is anyone able to create unique bosses and monsters to populate this frozen place! the description of the bosses are: - Hel, The Frozen Queen: her appearance is described as half-black and half-flesh coloured and as further having a gloomy, down-cast appearance and she rules all Hel lands and creatures (you may use wispmother as base creature but making her more "human" maybe wiwh legs and using human movements; she's a giant so maybe the scale could be 1:1,5) - Garmr, Hel's Guardian: With the aspect of a giant evil dog with the chest marked with conspicuous spots of human blood and firmly tied to a chain, guards the entrance of Hel, stationed in front of a cave called Gnipahellir. (you may use a wolf as base but much more big evil and maybe rotten i dont know..something like undead hounds in resident evil ;) ) - Modgudr, Gjallarbrú's Golden Bridge Guardian: she's the giantess guardian of the Gjallarbrú. She allowed the newly dead to use the bridge to cross from one side of the river Gjöll to the other if the soul stated his or her name and business. (use a nord female as base but scaled 1:1,5 and with skin color some kind of blue as draugr's skin, the armor may be draugr's one but in different colors maybe) - Nidhoggr, Corpse Bane: is an infernal serpent who deliver ruin on dead's corpse scattered on the Corpse Shore Nástrandir, the Nidhoggr is said to be controlled by only one person, the Norse goddess named Hel. (you may use a dragon head but the body must be like a serpent or at least a vivern if you know the difference heven in the movements!so new animations i guess..the aspect is dirt of blood and any kind of crap!) common monsters - frozen soul: restless souls that hang over the deep caves and ice labyrints in Hel.. (you may use icewrath, anomalies and wisps as base, they must have frozing aura and be as much slow and graceful as painfull :D maybe adding laments and prays) - Frozen warriors: undead corpse who hang over the lost halls of hel (draugrs base (much better if you use ALL the draugrs model for much more variety ingame) with icicles, frozen breath and slow movemens, much more strong than normal human maybe with frozen runes on the skin) - Frozen Skeletons: restless skeletons frozen in they're decay (skeleton based, with icicles, frozen breath and maybe dressed with nord and ancient nord armors in pieces - Frozen Presence: ghosts of men died for old age and disease can't access the Valhalla and wander through the wastelands of Helheimr aimlessly (you may use nord human ghosts colored in ice blue and with frozen aura) - Serpent Demon: small version of Nidhoggr they hang up into the Serpent's Hall throwing venom on the souls who rests there for penitence (see Nidhoggr description but with scale 1:0.75) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Future Plans: add unique bosses, monsters and may be a quest line throwing you in an adventure trough Hel to recover your loved (may be your wife if you got merried ingame) from death's embrace; i'm doing historic researchs for a more accurate visual atmosphere and may be add legendary viking armors and weapons! obviously i need modellers and people practice of papyrus to do that..i've not the skills to do it by myself! finished this i'm planning to do the other infernal viking world of Múspellsheimr Flames world with the same proposition of the previous one :D SUGGESTIONS AND CRITICS ARE WELCOME, WRITE HERE OR CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED! contact me even if you can do only one of those mod proposals because you are welcome anyway ;) ps. forgive me if is there any grammatical imprecisions but i'm not a native speaker :D
