History

Third Age

It was a term that arrived as the The Rimzir Dragonboat landed on the shores of Midgard, and Rimzir. Warriors surged forth to secure their landing.

It is a tactic consisting of a coastal raid with the intention of capturing livestock and Indigenous peoples for slave trade. This tactic was enhanced by their longships’ shallow draft and has since been refined by a spy network from their many commercial encounters. These spies informed them of local customs, dates of feasts, helped as translators, indicated places to plunder, and personalities to be removed or held for ransom.

These swift raids were also made against other Wanderers as well. The first High King prohibited strandhögg The Realm.
