Description

~ Yngvar: Voice of the Gods ~


The idea of "transporting" my OCs (Norse warriors, as you surely know) to the 21st century and imagining them playing in a Dark folk/ Viking metal band (thus combining three of my obsessions passions: my novel, the Middle Ages and metal) was really fun to develop. I enjoyed choosing outfits and instruments that represent their personality.

Finally, this is my last piece of the series: Yngvar would be the vocalist and frontman of the band, as he is (in the novel) the "frontman" of the rebellion against King Olaf Trygvasson. Imposing and mysterious, employing both growls and clean vocals, whispers and incantations, Yngvar would honour the Norse gods and traditions through his performances (which is exactly what he fights for in the novel).

The song I chose for thisVintersong - Norrland 
This line from the song represents Yngvar perfectly: Vargkörers klagohymn är pulsslag i mitt hjärta (The wailing choirs of wolves are the pulse beating in my heart), and the region of Norway where my novel takes place is Nordland (this song is Swedish but it describes the north of Scandinavia, so we can imagine it's Yngvar praising his land ^^).
