The Crest
Shield of the Nine Realms
The Norse Crest is centered around a Viking shield emblazoned with four symbols of war — each a mark of one of the great forces that govern the Norse world.
On the left stands Gungnir, Odin's spear, a weapon that never misses its mark. On the right, Mjölnir, Thor's hammer — famous for its unusually short handle, the result of Loki's treachery during its forging. Hanging at the bottom left, a sprig of mistletoe — the one substance in all creation capable of killing Baldr, the most beloved of gods.
At the crown of the crest, a raven spreads its wings — Odin's eyes and ears across all nine realms, a symbol of wisdom, prophecy, and the watchful Allfather.
Valknut
Three interlocked triangles — symbol of fallen warriors claimed by Odin for Valhöll.
Tiwaz ᛏ
The rune of Tyr, god of honorable combat, justice, and sacred oaths.
Mjölnir
Thor's hammer — the most sacred symbol in Norse faith and protector of mankind.
Horn Triskelion
Three interlocked drinking horns — Odin's symbol, tied to his relentless pursuit of wisdom.

King of the Norse Pantheon
Odin
The Allfather · Wanderer · God of Wisdom & Foresight
The ruler of the Norse pantheon and god of wisdom, knowledge, and foresight. Odin often walked the worlds disguised as a cloaked wanderer. Shaken by Baldr's death, he became consumed with preparing for — and perhaps even preventing — Ragnarök, his relentless pursuit of knowledge sometimes clouded by flawed judgment and dangerous alliances. Known as the Allfather, a title derived from Alföðr meaning "All-Orderer" or "All-Arranger," only four gods are explicitly identified as his sons.
