This might help with the death write-ups. Got this from this post in Midgard 1.

Valkyries

The valkyries that greet the warriors of men.
I hadn’t planned to put them in to the stories, but as soon as I did I realized that it would be another unbalanced feature. But as you look closely Warluster was greeted by Hel on his death. No horses or blonds mentioned. I also had to update Dutch_guy’s death. Townies without war experience had not been proved in battle and hence did not qualify for Valhalla. War Vets and Champions had proved themselves worthy before coming to Gulating. Even if they died in their sleep they were collected by the Valkyries.

Welp, looks like I'm heading for Valhalla earlier than planned. Sorry about this townies, I shouldn't have missed that first day phase. And now, because of that, the Jotun are one step closer to their goal. My apologies.

You have been summoned to this ting by the rulers of the Norse world to settle a dispute between Harald Bluetooth of Denmark and Haakon Jarl of Norway. You are here to give evidence to the dishonorable union of interests between Denmark and Jomsborg. But you still have a strong feeling about who should rule Norway. It should have been you and not that brat Haakon.

Your survival is important. The Jotun is out to get you and your retinue. The Jotun will win if they kill you and the other Lords.

You have a champion in your retinue. This is Ragnar the Anglo-Saxon, one of your most trusted men.
If you are challenged to a Holmgang he can take your place. If the Holmgang you have been challenged to is the one which will be fought I will send you a pm with the question of you wanting a champion in your place. Remember, the Jotun will be looking for you and will discover that someone took your place.

Your champion is: Twilightblade

Holmgang ability: = 7

There. Of course, you might as well lynch me, since i'm dead now anyway.

I didn't include the Norse(or whatever it is) writing at the top. Wasn't sure if copying and pasting it would be within the rules.

It looks genuine to me, what do you need more?

Of course, getting the other 5 who voted Tratorix to unvote in the next hours is going to be hard enough...
