Odin is the coolest "Head of the Pantheon" God. A loner, trickster, and seeker of knowledge

[@heathenpride7931]

He originally wasn’t the head, it was the warrior god Tyr that was the head. Then as a concept of ruling nobility and esoteric mysticism sweeped through Germanic peoples Odin became top dog. Then in the last days of Norse Pagans Thor became top dog, a hero ruler to fight against the Christians that were their enemies. Also, some places had gods other than Odin as top dog, like southern Sweden had Freyr.

A rune to raise the dead? Maybe that's what Odin whispered in Balder's ear.

[@RAMMSSHADOW]

Balder can't die because of a curse from Freya because she didn't ever want her child to hurt or die. But as a result of the curse couldn't feel pain, pleasure, heat, cold, anything. Couldn't taste smell or anything. What brakes his curse is a mistletoe arrow or spear because of Löki.

[@RAMMSSHADOW]

@@jadenova it's hinted at through different misc lore plus the God Of War PS4 kinda goes into depth with Balder a bit about his invulnerability.

[@daveschaafsma3219]

@@RAMMSSHADOW you are wrong tho, please stop taking info from video games. The gods decided to protect baldr (the most beautiful and loved god of all) by making every being and essence swear on Odins spear (oaths sworn on the spear cannot be broken) to not hurt Baldr. This angered Loki and he found out from drunk gods that mistletoe didn't swore the oath because it was harmless. While testing out the oaths nothing could hurt baldr. Except the arrow from loki (made from misletoe) wich killed him. They went to the god of death and asked for baldr to rise again. She said she would only allow it if every being in the universe would cry over baldr being dead. That being said every being cried and wept at the lost of the most beautiful god, except one troll. They begged the troll to cry but he did not, wich caused baldr to be gone forever. This troll turned out to be loki and when the gods found out, they tied him onto rocks in a cave. With a snake hanging above him with his large fangs out. And every so often a drop of venom would drip on Loki's head, causing agonizing pain. Where he would remain until ragnarok

I believe that Yggdrasil is a metaphor for the Laniakea supercluster, as it resembles a tree with the various realms(galaxies) hanging from it, including ours.
