http://www.thelairofdarkness.com/level.itml/icOid/6081there you are, Thor => the bind runes on it. Interesting thing is this => the rune meaning war and male sexuality are one and the same. Implies a not-so-friendly conquering way of approaching the other gender. I've always felt uncomfortable at the thought, this hammer is a symbol of protection for marriage, fertility and war at the same time... "Get a lot of kids, slave females and deliver cannon fodder for the next village to burn down?"
For me as a modern feminist a really disgusting thought and insight into a very male-oriented, vicious, brutal streak of this culture. I consider the whole Norse mythology to be the most brutal and life-defying one. In case you wonder: Mythology of all cultures was an old childhood interest, later on I tried tracking down when the matrilinear cultures were forced out of human memory.
