Tyr (or Tiw, Ziw) is the ancient god of War and the
Lawgiver of the gods. He sacrifices his hand so
that the evil Fenris wolf may be bound. At one
time he was the leader of the Norse Pantheon,
but was supplanted by Odin much later. There is
nothing to indicate how this occurred; one
assumes that he simply "stepped back"
and let Odin assume the position of leadership.
Tyr is excellent in all manners of Justice,
fair play, and Right Action.

Be reasonably civil. Ire alloyed with reason is fine. But slagging the host gets you the banhammer.
