I guess Zidane visited Finland and saw me play football and asked someone who that brilliant player is and after that he stole my name and skills. Hahaha you funny fuck  I got my name as a suggestion from Kveldulf (Mythan). If you'd like to know more about my great deeds and mighty acts, read www.sacred-texts.com/neu/ice/index.htm#sagas |

Kveldulf was a very strong and honoured viking. He lived in norway where he got two sons - Grim and Thorolf. Kveldulfs real name was ulf, but since he got strange at night, and went outside to be alone, he got the nickname Kveldulf. Litterly translated: nightwolf. Once he got a letter from Harald Hårfagre who asked him and his sons to join him. Egil and Kveldulf denied, which made Harald a bit angry. Thorolf was gone at that time, so he never knew. The king sent two of his men to Kveldulfs stronghold, to repeat the question in the letter... Thorolf who was home at that time accepted and became the right hand of the king. Grim and kveldulf denied again, and with that they were banned from norway..... ( i can't remember the exact details :/ )...... at least it ended up in a battle onboard a ship on the way to iceland... and the saga says that Kveldulf "changed skin".... that he, eventhough he was old and his teeth was gone, bit many of the kings men to death... He died soon after of a lounge-decease
( Grim had the nickname Skallagrim, because he got bald very early, and he was damn ugly... large as his father though ).... Skallagrim had two sons too, and a daughter... the sons were named Egil and Thorolf -> ( after his fathers brother )...the daughters name i cannot remember
i've read the sage, Skallagrims Son, and you can also read about the family at the link Egil posted...

Almost bought Egil's saga today, but I overslept, and when I woke up, all the stores were closed, so that'll have to wait for some other day..  I always thought Einherjer-Harald took his name after our current king (Harald V, The King Of Norway.  ) but I guess not. Gonna have to read some of those sagas soon.. Too bad it's all in "old" norwegian.. pain in the ass to read. |

Oh, yeah I heard of him, of course. It just didn't occur to me. Yes, nynorsk sucks, but only because I suck at it.  |
