About 
Norsfell

Many winters ago, four adventurers sailed upon the shores of a cold but prosperous land. One night, they constructed a fire on top of a momentous peak to ask the wise god Odin what lie ahead of them. Inside the smoke danced bear warriors and golden halls, whispering ravens and far away realms. It was then that the four pledged to call their banner Norsfell.

Before long, their path crossed with other travelers who held the same vision, seeking to join them to create new stories and ways of reaching out to people all over the land. To this day, these banner folk put their hearts together into sharing the passion to live boldly across Midgard.

Will you too join them?
