How accurate is the history stuff in Rooks background? What about the mythology?
I have no qualms about disregarding actual history where inconvenient. Most of the stuff existed – Saint Anskar, Vladimir of Kiev, etc. Far more “accurate” is the mythology storyline, dealing with both medieval Christianity and medieval Norse paganism. One of my BAs might say “Anthropology”, but it ought to read “Ritual & Symbolism”, so if anything you see in Rook’s storyline is based in real history, it’s the religion bits. Promise.
