## Biography

### Notice

It should be noted that the Ragnarok Cycle should be accounted for when discussing the lives of those associated with Asgardians. The cycle makes it so that those it affects have lived countless lives with differences between them. The division between those lives are unclear and as such the events transcribed below may have occurred across several lives, and any discrepancies can be attributed to the cycle. In addition, Asgardian legend and Norse myth can make detailing what happened and what didn't hard to tell.

### Early Life

Odin was born in Asgard to Bor and Bestla and was the brother of Cul, Vili, and Ve.

### Aesir-Ice Giant War

Odin would succeed his father as King of Asgard. Odin despised the Ice Giants and organized his brothers to fight them. The first target was Ymir, the progenitor of the Ice Giants. After a long and tough battle, Odin cut the aged giant down and used the ocean of blood that spilled from Ymir to exterminate nearly every single other Ice Giant.

### Creation of Midgard & Asgard

According to Asgardian legend, Odin used the corpse of Ymir to create Midgard (Earth) and after completing the Earth, the Aesir founded the Kingdom of Asgard in the Asgardian realms.

### Creation of Life

According to Asgardian legend, The Aesir were unhappy with their situation in life and wanted to make more beings in their image. At first the Aesir created the Trolls beneath the Earth, however this did not satisfy them. Odin then went to Midgard along with the Aesir Hoenir and Lodur and found two trees. The trio then created humanity from them with the first humans Aske and Embla emerging.

### Children

Odin would have several children mostly from his wife Freyja although Vidar and Thor were from other mothers and Loki was adopted.

Loki would become rivals and mortal enemies with his adoptive brother Thor with the two in constant battle.

Eventually, Loki was imprisoned in a tree for all eternity, unless an Asgardian shed a tear for him.

### Return of Loki

Loki would eventually free himself and went to Earth to get his revenge on Thor, however Thor defeated him and sent Loki back to Asgard which Odin witnessed.

## Personality

Odin was a wise, but prideful man who valued people he considered "worthy".

## Appearance

As a child, Odin was fair skinned with long blonde hair that reached to his collar.

As an older man, Odin grew into a large man with a full beard. By this point, his hair had turned gray and he lost one of his eyes.
