Okay, so I _was_ going to do a Tarot deck...but since I haven't really decided what all to do with that...and it seems that the Tarot readers I talk to are either very opiniated about it (as in, they expect certain things, regardless of the theme of the deck, which is important) or so open about it they don't really care. Neither of which is as helpful as you might think.

So! Since just the research phase is going to take friggin' forever on that one, I've opted for something on which I have to do much less research. Valkyries! Yaaaaay! Alright, so, this is a bit late to be talking about it, since I've already done one, but there's quite a few Valkyries. It'll take me some time while I get all my R&D done for the Tarot deck, so the Valkyries.

There isn't actually much on them, even the Encyclopedia Mythica site isn't incredibly informative. Although, given the fact that the vast majority of Norse/Scandinavian lore was passed down orally, rather than written, this is legitimate. Still, with translations (however rough) of the Valkyries names, I should be able to do something.

Oh, and for you Conan fans, yes, Valeria will be included.

BTW...I do this for a living. For info on that side of things, check out my DA portfolio page.
