Any need for more players?

I have few choices so I ask your opinion, first one is a Troll
The other is an Elemental
and last a Human

And i am willing change the characters abit so that they fit into the game xD

The elemental is a no. There are elementals, but they are a sort of different creature.

The troll would be difficult, as trolls in general are none too bright. I suppose it would be doable, but I would advice against him being an aldonadian. Also, trolls live only about 125-200 years in my stories, I believe. I am also going to say they love technology if they can figure out how to work something.

The human character would have to be reworked loads as there are no rune-magi, at least not in the traditional sense. There were seal magi that worked by binding their spells into rechargeable glyphs that only they could release, but that art is nearly dead, preserved only by way of the scribes, and even they cannot produce the powerful glyphs of old. Also, the height issue would make him a half-giant since humans do not grow more than 8 feet at the very most without some genetic disorder, and those might as well be half-giants for clumsiness. He's doable, but would need much reworking.

I think your best bet would be a completely new character, but I won't force it. If you want to use one of the others, you can, but they need my approval.

I'm pretty versed in Nordic myth, and I don't ever recall them being anything but brutish. Unless you hold to the opinion that the Svartalfar are trolls and not a separate race of elves. I never saw it that way, but then I'd rather not see it that way, too, so who's to say?

Your character will work, but remember that this is a futuristic fantasy. Axes and the like would be considered primitive.

The Norwegian Fairy Tales have all sorts of delightful stories about both good and bad trolls. I used to have a book on them and dearly loved the tales as a child but alas I have lost the volume. :cry: So different cultures have different sorts of stories. *shrug*

yeah but i depends on what kind of axe xD.
Svartalfer are elfs and they aren't the kind at all but the Norse people was not all brutes there where more traders than barbarians and they had a well built socíaty.
But i can create a group of dwarf's then xD they are know for the skill as craftmen and among othere things if my abit harder and sofisticated Norse is something that is not needed. I can chage xD

When I said "them," I meant trolls, not Nordic people. And just because they are brutish does not mean they cannot be kind, just that they are... well... brutish. Crude, coarse, uh... unsophisticated? that sort of thing. Not intelligent, on the whole, however.
As for characters, I don't mind. Any sort of mythological creature with a basis in classic myth is valid. I'd even allow some original races adapted from classic myth.

Anyway, I'm really tired, and I'll try to get something up today. No promises though.
