Default Re: An idea concerning National Heroes

I like this Hero Quest idea very much. Rewards for those quests doesn't have to be artifacts, just experience and/or minor items. National specific quests would be interesting. For Pythium something like "How the world greatest hero defeated the Mother of Hydras". This would add little more background story for different nations. Divine Titles for national heroes could be nice also. Not the same titles ofcourse but something more suitable for heroes. Hero who passes the great hydra quest should atleast get a cool title for his deeds.

This could help that Luck-scale...

Trying to get a hero to defeat three Ashen Angels or a turbo-hydra would be interesting though...

I just think Vainamoinen and Lemminkainen should be added to the Jotunheim name database.

No, but they might become national heroes in some future patch. Kalevala is awesome.

'Old Wipunen, full of magic,
Speaks these words in wonder, guessing:
"Who art thou of ancient heroes,
Who of all the host of heroes?
Many heroes I have eaten,
And of men a countless number,
Have not eaten such as thou art;
Smoke arises from my nostrils,
From my mouth the fire is streaming,
In my throat are iron-clinkers.'

The giant sorceror Vipunen after having eaten Väinamöinen who started to make himself comfortable in the giants entrails, forging magic items etc.

Really?! Would you really do that? That sounds absolutely awesome to me.
