So a few of my buddies from high school and I are starting up a deathwatch campaign and I've been thinking of rolling a Space Wolf. Problem is that I don't know, or at least remember the lingo. Does anyone know of a lexicon that exists for their languages or am I just SOL? Thanks in advance for any info.

there isn't a "Fenrisian lexicon"; what we have now, from the HH novels, is a selection of old Norse/Germanic words, loosely strung together. Want to speak Fenrisian? Find some English - old Norse translator and just roll with it

I reckon you just use Norse and every once in a while shout "For Russ and the Allfather!".

Do your best impression of the Swedish Chef and you'll be fine.

Right, "Bork, bork, bork, brok, FOR RUSS AND THE ALLFATHER!"

Yeah, think I got it. Thanks, y'all. lol

Don't forget to bark and howl every once in a while for good measure. And if you win, pee on your opponent's leg so the other SW players know that that leg belongs to you.

Icelandic names are your best bet. They are much closer to the traditional Norse Viking names that the SW like so much than modern Swedish names.
