Overview
Play as a demigod, chosen from a daughter or son of Odin, blessed with the powers of the gods. This mod adds unique classes with magic, spells, abilities, items and more.
Please note that your advanced settings will be reset on every new update for re-balancing purposes, unless 'Automatically Update Configs' is disabled in your configs.
Setup
It is important that you do not rename the file "NorseDemigods.dll" and ensure that other files that come along with the mod are located in the same folder, else the mod will not function correctly (if at all).

Getting Started
- Check your in-game 'compendium' (click on the bird icon on the 'tab' menu) for all necessary instructions on how to get started. Your 'compendium' will be updated with more information after having chosen a demigod, such as abilities, attributes, infused materials, and even the possible hotkey combinations for your abilities.
- You might want to change the hotkeys for your abilities by tweaking the values in section '(Hotkeys)' in your configs. The user interface is also customizable in section 'User Interface', which can be updated in real time if using a configuration manager mod.
General Tips
- Although the mod is linearly balanced and somewhat vanilla friendly, once you get used to it, you could feel overpowered. It is recommended that you change the value of 'Difficulty' in the mod configs to something else, such as 'Expert' (recommended difficulty), or use the world modifiers or another mod to increase the game difficulty.
- Even though this mod will fully work with already existing characters, it is recommended that you use this mod on a fresh character. Some demigods fully rely on their main skill (demigod) to cause damage (e.g. Fenrir), which will naturally and steadily progress from the start of the game, but may be tedious to catch up with if started late.
- You can enable and disable optional features in your configs, such as 'Teleportation' or 'Harpoon Fishing', which was inspired by the 'SpearFish' mod by Korppis, allowing you to catch fish with an Abyssal harpoon and upgrade it. This mod introduces sweet fish recipes, which are an almost essential type of food for demigods.
- Due to demigods having limited types of preferred weapons, I highly recommend the 'Warfare' mod by Therzie, which will not only introduce new weapons, but also new combat animations (for valkyries this is quite a big change with the introduction of pikes). Another excellent mod is 'ValheimArmory' by MidnightMods.
Hotkeys
Below are the default hotkeys for the commands that this mod introduces.
- Please note that some abilities are triggered by a combination of keys, which can all be found in your 'compendium' after choosing a demigod.
- Some abilities are triggered using the special attack in conjuction with another event, such as blocking or jumping. You can find all combinations in your 'compendium' after choosing a demigod.
- All hotkeys can be changed in the config file in section '(Hotkeys)'. It is recommended, however, that you use a configuration manager mod (such as the 'Official BepInEx Configuration Manager' mod by Azumatt) to bind the hotkeys directly in-game.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
