Page From The Geek's Guide: Ten More Fictional Characters I Would Love To Be

Good afternoon nerds, gamers, and geeks and welcome back to the Nerd's Notebook. Today is the part two to a past post that made. Let's jump right in. In no particular order, we have:

1. The Members of Dumbledore's Army (J.K Rowling's Harry Potter Series): The members over Dumbledore's Army in the iconic Harry Potter series by renowned author, J. K Rowling, grew stronger under the command of Harry Potter, as did Harry himself. Those that survived the great battle at the end grew to be some of the strongest. Besides that, magic has always been something that's amazing to me that I like to read about, write about and learn about, but not to practice...unless I was a student at Hogwarts.

2. Dracula (Bram Stoker's Dracula): If you haven't read the first post, then you don't know that if I could choose anything nonhuman to be, I'd be a vampire first, then werewolf, and perhaps a dhampir (vampire-werewolf hybrid). For me to become Dracula, is for me to become the primordial nosferatu. The first vampire and one created by such an amazing author.

3. Celena Sardothien (Sarah J. Maas' Throne of Glass series): An infamous assassin with extensive knowledge of poison, enhanced intelligence, and amazing fighting skills. Seriously, thank you Sarah J. Maas for creating such an amazing character. You can find a post on this book in my reading blog, the-page-master.blogspot.com

4. Any Member of the Bat Family (DC Comic Continuity): All I will say is seriously...beware for those that bear the mark of the bat and fight alongside the Dark Knight and are a member of his estranged crime fighting family. Challenging any one of them will not end well.

5. Greco-Roman, Norse, Egyptian, Japanese and Slavic Gods and Goddesses (Mythologies): I love studying mythologies and the gods and goddesses that are in each respective mythology, so for me to have the powers of some chosen deities and minor deities would be amazing, though dangerous for them that may cross me.

6. Alisa Perne (Christopher Pike's Thirst Series): Alisa Perne kicks butt as a vampire, and Christopher Pike did an excellent job putting us as the reader into the shoes of a vampire woman.

7. Carrie (Stephen King's Carrie): The power of telekinesis was Carrie's most powerful and only weapon which was completely and terrifyingly unlocked at the end of the novel, because she murdered many of her former classmates when she snapped and her powers raged out of control. This can also be found as a separate post in my reading blog the-page-master.blogspot.com.

8. Lestat (Anne Rice's Interview With a Vampire/ Queen of the Damned): Another vampire that, in the movie Queen of the Damned (godofthearts.blospot.com), was the lead singer of an amazing metal band, whose songs from the soundtrack were written and performed by some great bands. But still...vampire...metal. Grade A awesomeness.

9. Number Four (Pittacus Lore's I Am Number Four): To have powers and to be hunted is something I always thought would make my life way more interesting than it already is. And that's just what happens in I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore.

10. The Deities of the Cthulu Mythos (H.P Lovecraft's Chthulu Mythos): As I have said before, I love to study mythologies and right now I am heavily into Slavic Mythology, Nordic Mythology, and the Lovecraftian mythos named after his own creations. The famous author of Cosmic Horror, created grotesque and strange deities that are Eldritch in practice and horrifying in reality.

Exploring the Norse Mythology: Ragnorok;The End of All Things

The term Ragnarok in old Norse translates into "Fate of the Gods". Ragnarok is a series of future events, including the greatest of all battles, foretold. This great war will ultimately result in the deaths in a number of major figures in the Norse mythology, including Odin, Thor, Loki, Heimdallr, Tyr, and Freyr. It will be the occurrence of various natural disasters and the submersion of the world in water.

The first sign of the coming of Ragnarok will be Fimbulvetr, during which time there will be three winters without the reprieve of summer, and the sun's heat will be rendered useless. Three roosters will crow. A crimson rooster, named Fjalar will crow in the forest of Galgvidr. The golden rooster, Gullinkambi, will crow to the aesir in Valhalla, and finally an unnamed soot-red rooster will crow in the underworld location of Hel. The hound of Hel, Garmr, will growl deeply in the caves of Gnipahellir.

Heimdallr will raise the mighty Gjallahorn and blow deeply into it. The bindings on Garmr, described as the worst of all beasts, will break and he will run free and enter battle with the one-handed war god, Tyr, thus resulting in both of their deaths. The world tree, Yggdrasil will shudder and groan. The Midgard Serpent, Jormungandr, will writhe furiously thus causing waves to crash. These waves will free the ship of Death, Naglfar and it will set sail from the East. Surtr of the fire giants will advance from the South, with his sword blazing brighter than the sun. Loki, father of Jormungandr and Fenrir, will break free at the onset of Ragnarok.

Fenrir, the great wolf and spawn of Ragnarok, will swallow Odin. Immediately afterwards, Odin's son, Vidarr will put on the greatest boot, grip Fenrir's upper jaw and kick his foot into his lower jaw and rip his mouth apart, killing him. The serpent, Jormungandr will open it's gaping maw and yawn widely into the air. the serpent is met in combat by Thor. Thor, also a son of Odin and is described as the protector of Midgard, furiously fights Jormungandr, defeating it. However, Thor is only able to take nine steps before collapsing, succumbing to it's deadly venom. Freyr fiercely fights with Surtr but falls in battle because he lacks the sword he once gave to his messenger. Heimdallr and Loki fight each other with a berserker's ferocity, but die to one another.
