War Dances

There are forms to be obeyed, and hearts to quicken, before a battle.

War dances allowed warriors to lose themselves in rhythm, clearing their minds and increasing their heart rate. This was particularly useful during battle, when an unfocused mind could get you killed. Each society had its own songs and dances; the Celts were known for advancing into battle with a rhythmic step, clashing their shields and shouting the name of their tribe. The Germanic tribes danced for a number of reasons, including honouring their dead, hailing a speech, gloating over a captured banner, or simply to celebrate a victory.
