vikings women + side profiles

This portrait was a long time coming! Along with a two month hiatus from typing and loooong chapters in between we finally have an updated family portrait! We had lost a few sims along the way but even still the family is larger than ever, let's meet them all once again~

A lot of familiar faces are seen in this portrait and so many children have changed as they've grown, here's all of the info on each sim and their respective families:

To read all of the info on each member of our family find the post on my blogspot here!

Writhing Bloom

My entry for day three of @vikingsevents Valentine's week prompts. Day three is first date.

Pairing: Rollo x Gisla Warnings: None, unless you count fluff. Word count: ~500

Notes: Okay so I've never lived in America (or any other country that allows citizens to carry guns) but let's just say the world devolves into anarchy for the sake of this imagine in case you aren't american

Yes, I change some of the characters in imagines for the way they'd react I mean, imagine Judith with a gun.

How Vikings would react to a gun and a snapchat filter (given to them by an irresponsible time traveler)

In this imagine, you'll be arming Ragnar, Lagertha, Aslaug, Rollo, Floki, Helga, Bjorn, Ubbe, Hvitserk, Sigurd, Ivar, Ecbert, Athelstan, Judith, Kwentrith and Gisla in a very irresponsible manner (*looking at you anon*)

Ragnar

will use snapchat filters to scare the shit out of his children

probably uses the gun in a very viking manner

which just means he uses it to kill people

oohh but it makes him ~special~

shows his guests the gun

and if they don't like it

pew pew bitch

Lagertha

very efficient

converts gun into a bat once ammo runs out

but also responsible with it

you just know half of Hedeby will develop a gun kink bc of her

does not like snapchat filters

Aslaug

oh you don't like me??

maybe your corpse will

please give Aslaug a gun

Harald who? No one dares to conquer Kattegat

doesn't need snapchat to enhance her beauty

Rollo

do not give this man a gun

i'm begging you

it's pure chaos

and he will attempt to kill Ragnar

no

snapchat filters confuse him

Floki

the end of christians

gets seasonal depression when the ammo runs out

gun in one hand, eyeliner in the other

wants to reconstruct it

fails

has a breakdown

loves snapchat filters so much

oh lord

Helga

unsure what to do with the gun she confiscated from Floki

pokets the gun

whips it out when people insult her family

scolds Floki with the gun in hand

uses it as a vase or sth idk

not sure how to feel about snapchat filters

Bjorn

chaos

does not like guns

thinks they aren't viking enough

and no new ammo? bah

all of his wives would use the gun very efficiently though

esp. Ingrid

uses every snapchat filter unironically

Ubbe

gives up on guns because he uses bows more efficiently

returns it to you and makes you swear to keep it away from Ivar

if you're Kattegat's longtime resident time traveller

he's most likely traumatized from snapchat filters

in either case, he's just unsure what to use them for

Hvitserk

honestly, might be even worse than Ivar

new kink unlocked???

accidentally fires once or twice

likes dumb snapchat filters

Sigurd

attempts to kill Ivar

Ivar

attempts to kill Sigurd

there's a reason this guy can't walk

don't give him a gun

you'll change world history

everyone in his close proximity might die

Ivar, refrain from scratching your head with a gun!!!

Snapchat filters aren't funny

Ecbert

you can bet the Wessex court gets a lot quieter

but he usually just looks at it

bc he doesn't want to waste ammo

shows snapchat filters to Ragnar

Athelstan

gives it back

after drawing some Da Vinci shit in his journals

historians get headaches over them millenials later

Judith

oh can you imagine

give this woman a gun!!!

shoots 90% of Lords in Wessex

Wessex politics have never been this efficient

and smoothly running

Kwentrith

pure chaos

but I want her to be able to shoot her abusers

otherwise, she just shoots every mercian lord

uses glamourizing snapchat filters for a while bc they're funny

Gisla

might shoot Rollo

0 fucks given

takes over Europe and then some

she is so done with your shit

give her a gun, I dare you

does not fuck with filters

If you weren’t already aware there is a craze for these squishy plushies because of the comfort they give. But I’m here today to tell you about this one that doubles as a magical amulet! :) 🧿

The hamsa also known as the hand of Fatima a symbol used for protection and used as defence to ward of the Evil eye .

The "evil eye" is a curse believed to be cast by a evil glare, which is usually directed towards a person who is unaware. Many are the cultures who believe that receiving the "evil eye" will cause one misfortune, bad luck, ill health, injury or even death. The hamsa is used to defend against the evil eye and bring good fortune. is decorated with an eye.

It represents the eye that sees everything. The eye watches out for the person in possession of the "Fatima Hand" and warns about and protects against evil encounters.

Hamsa is also the hebrew word for five, and while some believe this represents the five fingers on the talisman, others say this symbolises the five books of the Torah: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.

In Buddhism and Hinduism, the hamsa takes on a very different meaning. For Hindus and Buddhists, the hamsa represents the chakras, the five senses and their associated mudras (hand gestures) that re-direct energy flow throughout the body

Thumb- Fire element / solar plexus chakra.

Forefinger- Air element / the heart chakra.
