Horse Routes to Aegirhamn, Bjarkan, and Hagall.Massively multiplayer online role-playing gameĭark Age of Camelot is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game released in October 2001 in North America, and in January 2002 in Europe. Included in this zone is the starter city for Valkyn's, Aegirhamn, and the town of Dyrfjall. This tamed group, known as the Valkyn, have adapted to Midgard ways, accepted their god as one of the Norse pantheon, and has joined forces with the Troll Fathers and the Norse to cleanse Aegir and Trollheim of the Morvaltar. The Troll Fathers have been successful in taming some of the savages, though. Trollheim held out for a time, and resistance still continues, but most of the island has come under the domination of these savage beasts.

A race of prehistoric savages, the Morvalt, swept across Aegir, destroying all in their path. Then one day, out of the pages of myth, a lone Troll Father came to Jordheim, bringing with him disturbing news. Young Trolls and Kobolds were told these stories of the Troll Fathers, especially about their legendary wisdom and power.

The Troll Fathers of legend lived on an island called Aegir in their formidable underground city, Trollheim.

Troll and Kobold myths tell of the Troll Fathers, a race of ancient and wise creatures who were the precursors to both of these underground races.
