Norse Gods

The **Norse Gods** (北欧の神々, *Hokuō no kamigami*) are the gods that rule over of Norse mythology with Vidar as its current leader.

## **Summary**

The Norse Gods have been active since ancient times where Odin became the ruler of Asgard, as well the leader of the Norse Gods and Valkyries, and he gave away his left eye to the Mímisbrunnr. One of the gods, Loki wanted to start Ragnarök to bring an end to the Norse Gods. After the death of God of the Bible and the threats of the Khaos Brigade, Odin and the Norse Gods decided to form an alliance with the Three Factions.

When the DxD team was formed, Azazel told Vali that Odin planned to take him as a adopted son to help pardon his and his team crimes for working with the Khaos Brigade, thus making him a adoptive member of the Odin family.

During the Evil Dragon War, when Trihexa awoke and began its rampage by attacking every mythological worlds, Odin and the six other major gods from Norse mythology sealed themselves at the Isolation Barrier Field to contain Trihexa.

Odin’s third son Vidar became the new chief-god of Norse mythology after his father and his two older brothers Thor and Baldur sealed themselves to fight against Trihexa. The higher-ups of Norse made arrangements for Vidar to marry Odin’s former assistant, Rossweisse. In the marriage interview, Vidar was accompanied by the goddess maids that served the Odin family, Fulla, Hlin, Gná and the Chief Valkyrie Brynhildr.

And they use that as the symbol to represent the inheritor when they have the generation change where they carve the emblem into their body and soul as each heir of the family inherits the symbol from their predecessor.
