  1. No, a vikingr essentially translated as a "bay dweller" and is more akin to describing an occupation rather than an ethnicity ( though vikings were almost exclusively Scandinavian/Germanic). It would be akin to saying that you are 5% pirate, shoemaker, or used car salesman.

  2. I would suggest that you check out his videos on animism which help explain the more multifaceted nature of the Gods. There are also other channels that do a good job about explaining the Germanic "soul complex" which addresses subjects like megin, ond, fyglia, hugr, lich, and more. There is a lot to learn and contemplate when it comes to this subject, and most are not willing to put in the effort to go beyond a superficial understanding.
