Page 2: Odin - as The All-Father, father of Thor, Baldur, and Hodr. Blood-brother to Loki, husband to Frigga. His high throne of Hlidskjalf sits in his hall, Valaskjálf. He resides over the mead-hall, Valhalla, where the honored dead feast. He has two ravens - Huginn and Muninn - who report to him the world's news. Sat upon Hlidskjalf, he sees into all of the Nine Realms. Odin travels the realms, collecting all manner of stories, knowledge, and magics. His eight-legged steed, Sleipnir - a son of Loki - can ride across land, sea, and sky. No steed is faster. Odin sacrificed his eye to Mímisbrunnr - the well of Mimir. From that sacrifice, Odin gained unparalleled knowledge. He hung from the branches of Yggdrasil, the World Tree, for nine days and nights - one cycle for each of the Nine Worlds. On the Ninth night, he fell from Yggdrasil, grasping the power of the runes. The tales and exploits of Odin are many.
