According to the Jómsvíkinga saga, Palnatoke founded the Brotherhood of Jomsvikings and established its laws, although there is no evidence to support this claim.
Palnatoke (Toke Palnersson) was a Jomsviking who lived in the late 900s. The Jomsvikings were a Viking brotherhood of elite warriors. In Icelandic Sagas, they are described as a legendary mercenary army. This fearless Scandinavian warrior-brotherhood offered fighting skills and fought for any king who would hire and pay them what they required.
