Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What do the Wendol want the Northmen to think of them as?

Answer: Bears

After the first battle, when the warriors ride in search of the Wendol, they come upon figures in the woods topped with bear skulls. Ahmed realizes that with the claws and the headdresses, the Wendol think of themselves as bears and they want everyone to think of them as such.
2. Where do the Northmen believe the brave may live forever?

Answer: Valhalla

Valhalla is the great dining hall in Asgard, the home of the Norse gods. All heroes slain in battle go there to await Ragnarok, the final battle between good and evil. Elesium is where the Greeks believed the good went after they died.
3. Who is the primary archer of the 13?

Answer: Rethel

Archery was an important skill for the Vikings, in addition to skills with sword, axe and spear. Rethel, played by Mischa Hausserman, dies in the first major battle with the Wendol.
4. Herger shoots his bow right handed.

Answer: False

Herger, played by Dennis Storhoi, is Buliwyf's right-hand man (so to speak). He shoots left handed. Right handed archers pull with their right hand.
5. What animal do the Northmen compare Ahmed's horse to?

Answer: A dog

Herger and Skeld both mention that "Only an Arab would bring a dog to war." In fact, the Arabian horse would have been taller than the small but sturdy Northern horse breeds of the time.
6. What was the only exploit of Wigliff that Buliwyf knows of?

Answer: Killed his brothers

When Wigliff implies that Buliwyf is a coward, Buliwyf responds that the only exploit he can recall is that Wigliff killed his brothers.
Wigliff - "Wait for the Wendol one night's time, and then talk to us of courage."
Buliwyf - "I thank the lord for his advice. Though I don't recall hearing any exploits of his, apart from killing his brothers."
7. Hrothgar is Buliwyf's father.

Answer: False

Hrothgar is the king that Buliwyf and the other 12 warriors go to help. Hygiliak was Buliwyf's father. We learn this when Hrothgar's herald asks for the warriors names. It is Hygiliak's funeral that Ahmed and Melchisidek walk into at the beginning of the movie.
8. Which of the 13 is a metal worker?

Answer: Skeld

Skeld is the warrior with the tattoo across his face. He is very superstitious and believes that the Wendol are demons. He dies in the first major battle against the Wendol. When trying to cut poles, Ahmed realizes that he cannot use the heavy Northern sword.

He asks for a metal worker and is directed to Skeld, who helps him turn the sword into a more manageable scimitar. The scimitar was a popular Middle Eastern weapon over a thousand years before Islam came to the Middle east.
9. Who is keeping watch before the first battle?

Answer: Edgtho

Edgtho is keeping watch from a tree by the watchtower. When Ahmed takes him food and stops to make idle conversation, they hear the Wendol horn and see the "Firewurm". Strangely enough, the rope that Edgtho uses to reach the watchtower is nowhere to be seen before he slides down it.
10. Who kills Buliwyf?

Answer: The Wendol mother

The Wendol mother scratches Buliwyf with a poisoned claw before he cut off her head. Buliwyf does manage to kill the Wendol leader before he dies, thus ending the war. While Wigliff might like to see Buliwyf dead, he has no part in it.
