Go to Hel

Posted Jul 29, 2011, 2:44:16 AM UTC

In norse mythology, Hel is Loki's daughter. She's the goddes of the underworld ( wich has the same name) and she receive a portion of the dead, those who died by disease or old age. (Only the warriors died in battle go to Walhalla).
Her appearance is half corpse,half woman (a beautiful one). Despite her scary appearance, she isn't evil, only devoted to her duty.

She's my favourite goddess in Norse mythology. I have much more sympathy for her than Freya ( goddess who is the Queen of Valkyries).

Edit: In The Poetic Edda, "Go to Hel" means to die.

    I like your version of her. She's elegant but still the part. The rotting flesh look is awesome ^^
