Odin

Óðinn, from óðr 'mad, raving'), also referred to as the All-Father (né Lodinus), is the third chief of the Æsir tribe of Norse Gods and one of the most prominent figures in Norse mythology. He is the god of wisdom, poetry, war, death, divination, and magic and the king of Asgard. He is the patron of rulers, wanderers, and outcasts. He was known as Wōden to the Anglo-Saxons and Wōtan to the southern Germanic peoples.
Though originally hailing from Troy and the city of Ilium, Odin, then called Lodinus, fled the city along with a small group of soldiers and civilians. Eventually heading north, Lodinus slew the giant Ymir, later being worshipped as a hero and slowly becoming more and more god-like.

Along with many others, he fought in the Trojan War, of which he was a survivor. After the fall of Troy, Lodinus escaped the city with Tharine, Lacius, Tiero, Scitha, Baldoris, Phraega, Phidore, and Hylle.
As they headed north, the group encountered several other peoples and cultures, each with their own pantheons, leading to the group questioning their beliefs.
