Odin’s lovely wife and the goddess of marriage. She is determined to<br />
find a wife for Hans, but clearly has no taste. What she does have a<br />
taste for is shoes, all seven hundred rooms of them. Sometimes for<br />
fun, she’ll weave the clouds, making interesting but tacky skies. She<br />
ended an entire war once when the warriors refused to fight under<br />
a plaid sky. Her voice is not exactly soothing – her singing can peel<br />
paint, which may be the cause of Odin’s white hair.<br />

Frey is a peaceful god that rules the weather (when it’s nice) and the land of the light elves called Alfheim. He’s<br />
what you might call the beatnik of gods. He likes a good party and invites one and all to sail with him on his ship<br />
Skidbladnir. This amazing ship has room for all the gods, yet Frey can fold it up and put it in his pocket. He’ll do<br />
his best to avoid a fight, but is often provoked, for everyone wants his secret sword Skirnir, which fights wisely<br />
for whomever uses it. Mostly the gods try to stay on his good side, ‘cause nobody wants the god of weather in<br />
a bad mood.<br />

The smartest of the Æsir had a little mishap with the Vanir. They cut off his head to shut him up. Good thing<br />
Odin decided to keep him alive, and so he remains in the well of wisdom. It’s here that Odin gets advice when<br />
he’s troubled, or if he can’t rhyme a line in one of his poems. The problem is Mimir has a big mouth, and Odin<br />
often wonders why he lost an eye to keep this guy alive. The fact is, the world would be lost without his wisdom<br />
– and he knows it.<br />
