BJORN THE PALE

Specialty Definition: Biorn the Pale

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Björn the Pale was a berserker who appears in the Saga of Gisli. He traveled around Iceland, making unreasonable demands of various people (such as their land and wives). If they didn't submit to Björn's demands, he would kill them and take what he had demanded. Eventually Björn the Pale met his match in Gisli, son of Thorkel of Surnadal, when Gisli borrowed a powerful sword named Greyflank, and slew Björn the Pale in battle.
