Message | Ymir still surrounds us, therefore it is impossible for him to have resurrected. |

Message | He may surround you in earth, but not in this game. In Particracy anyone can create the characters he wishes to create, and I decided to create Ymir, and that before he was slain. Ymir the frostgiant, as creator of life and caretaker of all living things. I'm sure that the babylonian Baal wouldn't have led human armies too. I'm using the image of old gods from Earth and try to put them into this world. And in this game I have the power to create every being possible. I could also say that the Midgard snake or that Fenrir is a member of our party, if I just modify them the way I need too. It's nice that you know something about northern mythology, but try not to be such a show-off and accept what other parties decide. I also decide that a strange lizard is member of your party, so let's not argue about such things. |

Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
