I totally botched this one (4/7). and I admit my failure. But in your first question you said that "Twilight of the gods" is a false translation. Wikipedia likes to differ:
"The event is attested primarily in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. In the Prose Edda and in a single poem in the Poetic Edda, the event is referred to as Ragnarök or Ragnarøkkr (Old Norse for '"Fate of the Gods" and "Twilight of the Gods," respectively'),"

I thought "Ragnarök" means "Doom of the Gods", yes?:). Maybe I should change the answer. Thanks for pointing it out, buddy!

Ooof...tough quiz for someone like me (a very casual friend with Norse Mythology).
2/7

Might be time for me to refresh my memory.

I got three right and I'd even heard the names of a few of those mentioned, but didn't truly know any answers - perhaps luck? I seem to have such in multiple answer quizzes too when I haven't a clue either. o_O
