Odin,
the father of the Asgardian pantheon, is at one time a warrior, a poet and a
wielder of mighty magic. Odin is a friend to mankind and frequently walks
among them in disguise
Dogma
Those
among the Futhark who have chosen Odin as their patron deity make a point of
seeking knowledge and improving their insight. They are expected to go through rigorous tasks and make great sacrifices
to gain understanding and information. They are expected to be honest and not break oaths unless the other party
has failed their part of the bargain. To followers of Odin, literature is sacred and many seek to preserve the
written word in personal or private libraries. Magic is a reward for those who have studied hard and devoted all their
efforts to discovering its secrets.
Clergy
Odin’s
clergy are extremely helpful within the community. They don’t view themselves as being above the common folk and
frequently serve as representatives for their congregations to the nobility. They are patrons of poets and active proponents of
literacy. In communities with pastors who serve Odin, literacy rates are higher
than average and some are even at 100%. They also facilitate magical study and often allow their church libraries
to be used for magical research. Clerics of Odin wear long sapphire blue cassocks, wide brimmed hats and
often have a patch over their left-eye.
