Odin
Odin Borson
- All-Father
- No Dual Identity
Odin, son of Bor, is the ancient ruler of Asgard and one of the gods who helped shape the Ten Realms. He gave up an eye in exchange for wisdom, defeated his corrupted brother Cul and was worshiped across the Norse and Germanic world. As father to Thor and adoptive father to Loki, he has spent countless stories testing, punishing and guiding his children, while his yearly Odinsleep leaves Asgard vulnerable. Odin has died and returned several times and remains a towering, often stubborn presence over Asgard.
