====== LA Utgård, Well of Urd ======
===== Lore =====
Utgård is a land of bitter winters and cool summers. It was once Jotunheim, the home of giants. But with the coming of man, the giant population has dwindled. After man ventured to the icy lands of Jotunheim, the giants of Jotun discovered the humans to be resourceful allies. With the Awakening God, all grudges have been cast aside and men and giants fight side by side. The alliance with the humans has estranged the Gygjas and their Vaetti servants, who no longer aid the giants. Instead, human seeresses have become influential. In the heart of Utgård lies the magical Well of Urd where the Norns gather and divine the future of the world. The giants of Utgård are immensely strong and resilient. They are born in the cold and do not suffer from cold climates. The people of Utgård prefer to live in cool provinces.
//"[Utgård] sprung from old Norse myth. The Poetic Edda and some later tales, combined with general conceptions of Iron Age Scandinavia, are the main sources. Vanir, Aesir and Giants are ancient antagonists in these myths. The Aesir, being perceived as gods, have been made pretenders in Dominions. Not that Vanir weren't, but they seem less so than the Aesir in most instances. As with most nations of supernatural origin, it seems fitting that their magic fades with each passing age as humans become more and more numerous. Niefelheim, Muspelheim, Jotunheim, and Utgård are part of the history of a single nation through the ages. Vanheim, Helheim and Midgård also share a common ancestry and development. In the middle era Helheim merges with Vanheim and disappears as an independent nation. Only the valkyries remain as reminders of the legacy of Helheim."// -Illwinter
===== General Overview =====
Utgård is a Giant nation with a very large human component. Compared to [[Jotunheim-ma|Jotunheim]] (the Middle-Age version of Utgård) it has lost much of its [[Blood]] Magic, and some of its Water Magic, in exchange for better access to [[Astral]]. Its human troops are quite average, if not outdated, and their only ranged weapons are javelins. Its Giant troops are very strong, though a little under-armored, and the [[Sacred]] ??Garmhirding??s are some of the most powerful melee attackers in the game for their individual strikes.
Utgård has great Blood Mages ({{path>B3}}) that can be recruited from any fort, but it lacks the "cheap" Blood Mages that other [[nations-la|Late]] Blood nations use to rush their [[gems|Blood Slave]] and [[Demon]] buildup. If it's any consolation, one {{path>B3}} mage is better at [[Blood Hunt|Blood Hunting]] than three {{path>B1}} mages. Utgård's human mages are geared towards Astral [[Communion]], well-aligned for using them to bolster [[Death]] and [[Glamour]] spells, but they don't have the necessary paths to lay [[Shock Resistance]] on the Jotuns or themselves.
