Yup details about Paragons and Exemplars can be found here: https://www.profounddecisions.co.uk/empire-wiki/Paragons_and_exemplars
Inga Tarn is an exemplar of Courage from Wintermark, Isebrad is a Paragon of Wisdom who was a Steinr also Korl the Paragon of Courage is a Steinr/Vard too.
Having favorite Paragons and Exemplars so you can argue which ones are best is a very Imperial thing to be doing whatever nation you’re in 
.
Idea Stolen,
Stand outside conclave selling What Would [Insert Paragons Initials Here].
(Could look silly with the length of the brass coast paragons)
You say “could look silly”, I say “think of the options for charging more based on length of name”… 
Done. For E4, as I dont have the time to sort before this event.
So you’re all saying don’t have the idea to have a pre determined life? Also i know nobody who will do this with me. So I’m gonna take a guess and think I’m probably gonna go at this solo. Any advice for that kinda thing?
Here’s a thread on going solo!
There is a lot of people going to empire solo this event, so my best advice is to just introduce your self and talk to people. You may find you will band with some of the other newbies and start a loose group of your own.
PS an open campfire is “nearly” always open for people to join, just ask first. I personally bring some port and rum to share around the fire. Others bring nice cordials for those not drinking. I can not emphasize enough that every one should wander the camps and see the other nations.
Pre-determined stuff just isn’t built into this system. There are a lot of different LRP systems out there, each with their own backgrounds, you just happened to pick a style of character that doesn’t work too well in Empire.
I’m sure there’ll be a place for you here though, Bouteillbleu’s suggestion about choosing, and then fully running with the choices you make, is very Pride (https://www.profounddecisions.co.uk/empire-wiki/Pride) and that could work really well.
I’m going to throw in a curveball here.
Have you considered Imperial Orcs? Obviously there is a mask requirement there, but with the religious angle you kind of want, their concept of Ancestors and Worth might appeal to you. It’s not “Viking” based, but it does have some really interesting concepts that would suit a Berserker style fighter that you seem interested in.

Obviously Wintermark is still a solid choice, but you need to kind of push the Viking package out of your mind and focus on what specifically about Vikings it is that appeals to you, and figure out how to play that in the setting.
If your worried about going solo, Wyvern’s Watch is currently accepting new players were a Wintermark group.
If you’re happy to have me! However I probably won’t be actually going to any of these events until summer next year if you’re still happy for me to join then then I will also be happy to! Reason being transport and funding is a bit to a problem right now and I don’t want my costume to look absolutely awful, I wanna put time into it
Thats okay I’ll send you a PM.
