Also, Niffleheim is not the giants home. That would be Jotunheim :P

Some texts claim the jötnar race called the hrímþursar originated in Niffelheim born from the first giant Ymir's armpits (must be stinky). Ymir was subsequently killed by the gods Odin, Vili and Vé and his blood flooded Niffelheim, killing all the hrímþursar but two, Burgelmir and his spouse, who repopulated the jötnar, starting a new race.

Some time after, the jötnar were refused entry to Asgard by the gods and banished to Jotunheim, though there are few texts that claim this.

EDIT: 1000th OOC post, wooh! Our OOC posting is way more than the other advanced RPs :lol
