well i was searching something and i found something of the nordic mythology and i found something about hel or hela like they called in that time

well hel is like in the boktai game blue and all and have a dead putrefied part like in the game

this really suprised me besides not forgeting that all the nordic gods have a very relation to the anime matantei loki ragnarok

if i'm not wrong they come out with that idea from there but i think it's kinda creepy :mellow:

I think Vanargandr is a addition to the Vanar who were at war with the Aesir in Norse myth.

Jormangundr, Hel, and Vanargandr are the three children of Loki, I believe, who were thrown down to Midgard by Odin. Thor later kills Jormangundr and dies from its poison slightly thereafter, but I don't think the other two die.

And Vanargandr is a less used name for Fenrirsulfr, as I said, the third child of Loki.

A lot of video games have references to either Norse mythology, or to old operas that were done in reference to Norse Mythology.

And that seriously covers about 90% of all RPGs out there, the other 10% is comprised of being random and "Original" and copying other successful RPGs.
