Vindictus and Norse Mythology Trivia:
-Fragarach is known as "The Answerer" or "The Retaliator," wielded by Manannan Mac Lir and later, (foster son) Lugh Lamfada.
-Fragarach was a weapon forged by the Gods themselves.
-It was said that no one could tell a lie or move, with Fragarach at his or her throat, thus the name 'Answerer'. It was also said to place the wind at the user's command and could cut through any shield or wall, and had a piercing wound from which no man could recover.
- Manannan Mac Lir meaning son of the sea, is a sea deity in Irish Mythology.
-Manannan Mac Lir is affiliated with both the Tuatha Dé Danann (Tir Na Nog/Erinn) and the Fomorians. In the tales, he is said to own a boat named Scuabtuinne ("Wave Sweeper"), a sea-borne chariot drawn by the horse Enbarr, a powerful sword named Fragarach ("The Answerer"), and a cloak of invisibility (féth fíada). He is seen as the guardian of the Otherworld and one who ferries souls to the afterlife. Manannán is furthermore identified with the trickster figure Bodach an Chóta Lachtna ("the churl in the drab coat").
-Morrígan is primarily associated with fate, especially with foretelling doom and death in battle. In this role she appears as a crow, flying above the battlefield. Easter Egg or maybe not, but if you watch the cut-scene for Pestis battle in Lochlann Plains closely, there is a crow watching nearby.
-Ernmas is an Irish mother goddess
-Glas Gaibhnenn has been described variously as a cow which is "white with green spots."
