1. Introduction
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the game started, Odin had seen from the pool of vision that a
climactic battle would soon be fought known as Ragnarok or the "Dusk of
the Gods". The outcome of Ragnarok depends on whether these gods survived:
Thor, Frey, Hodur, Odin and Heimdal.

You are one of the Einherjor, Champion of Odin, entrusted with the
responsibilities to ensure the survival of the Gods when Ragnarok happens.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Character Creation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the character creation screen, you can select what you do in your life
as a human. You can choose to raid (increases warrior ability), study
(increases sage ability), or pray to one of the gods.

The bar at the bottom indicates your life and will slowly decreases. When
it reaches zero, you are dead. The game begins only after your character
is slain in battle and taken to Valholl. Odin made you into one of his
Einherjor.

During the game, your warrior and sage ability will increases when you use
them. However, your attitude towards the Gods does not change.

At the beginning, your character is given on default visit to Odin. If you
need to pray to the Gods, select Freya (the purple building).

Create a character with very high warrior ability. Sage ability is not as
crucial.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Temples of the Gods
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the game, you'll find many temples of the gods. They appear to look
like a small house with a single bed. There is usually a certain picture
in the house that indicates whose temple it belongs to. To pray to the
god, select an item and click on your character on the main screen.
Sacrifice the following items to gain the God's favor: perfume, Freya's
tear, craft wheel, craft idol and ship tokens. You can also sacrifice
magical items to the Gods but it is not worth it. Once the God accept your
sacrifice, a certain icon appear in the yellow box, click on it to cast
the spell. If you sacrifice more items, another more powerful spell will
be given. The previous spell can only be selected after you had cast the
spell you have just received. The God gives a maximum of 5 spells so don't
waste extra items after that. The spells will fade away after some time,
one at a time.

The following is a list of the magical powers that you will encounter in
the game. Your Sage Ability will determine 3 things when it comes to spell
casting: the amount of damage for offensive spells, the duration of the
spell and the effectiveness of non-offensive spells.
