That's the name from the Norse mythology of the winged women who brought slain worriers that they found worthy -to erernal life in Midgard and Valhall, the&nbsp;Odin's home.

&gt;&gt;Where you would struggle is with the exotics, such as broos, 

&gt;&gt;scorpionmen or 

&gt;&gt;wind children which are definitely Gloranthan in nature and 

&gt;&gt;wouldn't fit into 

&gt;&gt;many settings. You would also struggle with creatures particular to 

&gt;&gt;the game 

&gt;&gt;setting, these would have to be written up for that game setting. 

&gt; 

&gt;Greg took scorpionmen from the real world epic of Gilgamesh, wind 

&gt;children from northern European mythologies (aren't they also 

&gt;featured in the RQ _Viking_ boxed set?). I think beastmen, such as 

&gt;broos or D&amp;D's gnolls, are also from real world mythologies, but I 

&gt;can't recall specifics .
