VikingWards
VikingWards transforms Valheim's defensive Wards into interactive Divine Conduits. Make offerings to five Norse deities to unlock tiers of domestic sanctuary, creature deterrence, resource preservation, and territory-wide combat rites powered by VikingLib.
⚠️ Work in Progress (Pre-Release v0.1.0): This mod is in active development and has not been tested extensively. Features, balance, and mechanics may change, and unintended bugs or edge cases may occur. Backup your character and world saves before testing.
⚡ Powered by VikingLib: This mod requires VikingLib. VikingLib replaces Valheim's native combat calculation and stat engines. Not all mods may be compatible / work as expected with this.
How It Works
Approaching an active Ward displays an inscribed Ward Slate Dialog allowing players to consecrate their hearth to a chosen deity:
- Divine Conduits: Dedicate your ward to one of five divine patrons: Odin (Sanctuary & Subterfuge), Thor (Storms & Destruction), Frey (Harvest & Comfort), Tyr (Fortitude & Honor), or Freya (Vigor & Preservation).
- Consecration Offerings: Deposit thematic offerings (e.g. rubies, trophies, resin, fine wood) to unlock higher rite tiers within the ward's protective radius.
- Domestic Protection: Enforces strict sanctuary within the ward radius—restricting unauthorized structure editing, container looting, or door access in PvP, while drastically reducing wild predator detection ranges outside the perimeter.
- Territory Buffs: Friendly Vikings within an attuned ward's dome gain passive combat and regeneration bonuses scaled directly through VikingLib's stat engine.

| Deity | Domain | Signature Rites & Effects |
|---|---|---|
| Odin | Sanctuary & Knowledge | Enforces domestic building sanctuary; reduces creature detection radius outside the perimeter by 85%. |

| Frey | Agriculture & Bounty | Accelerates crop and livestock maturation; enhances Comfort rating and shelter health regeneration. |
| Tyr | Valor & Fortitude | Strengthens shield block armor and parry deflection windows for defenders within the ward. |
| Freya | Restoration & Healing | Continuous health and stamina replenishment; shields structures from passive environmental rain decay. |
