speaking of Vikings, get your Viking name here

Your Viking Personality: You're a fearsome Viking, but you aren't completely uncivilized. The other Vikings make fun of you for that. You have a thirst for battle, and tend to strike first and think later. As a Viking, you're one of the "berserkers", and rush into battle with no clothes on. If the sight of you naked isn't enough to disable the enemy, your sword certainly will be.
You might grumble a bit at the lack of amenities on board a Viking longboat, but you can handle it. You possess some skills which other Vikings respect.
You have a fairly pragmatic attitude towards life, and tend not to expend effort in areas where it would be wasted. Due to your gregariousness, you don't strike fear into the hearts of your victims. Try to be a little more surly in the future.

I am a fearsome Viking, but aren't completely uncivilized. The other Vikings make fun of me for that. Both friends and enemies think me a little weird. As a Viking, i'm one of the "berserkers", and rush into battle with no clothes on. If the sight of me naked isn't enough to disable the enemy, me sword certainly will be.
A long sea voyage aboard a Viking longboat would be difficult for me, but I may be able to manage it. Vikings make fun of me all the time. Not always behind me back, either.
I don't have a lot of tact, so it's lucky Vikings never cared much for diplomacy. Other people tend to think of me as manipulative and conniving.

5. Mr. Potatohead takes top honors, I think, for best-selling toy AND for Toy With Parts Most Likely to Be Lost, Then Later Found, When No One Remembers What They Are
-- Véný Quicklegs, who "generally won't strike fear into the hearts of her victims" and should "try to be a little more surly in the future"
5. First toy sold on TV!
update: Matt-man and R have 2 correct. Vanessa and Jenna have 1. I am Guðbjörg Quickmouth - can hold my own on the battlefield but am no beserker. I don't expend effort where it would be wasted but I need to be a tad more surly.
