'''Odin''' is a god in Norse mythology. He has many sons, but the most famous of them is [[Thor]]. Odin is often associated with wisdom, but also war, battle, victory, death, magic, poetry and prophecy, and overall his role in mythology is complex. <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odin] ''Wikipedia article of Odin, introduction paragraph''</ref> Odin has similarities to gods in other tales, so it's hard to tell when stories refer to him. His attributes are ravens and a spear. <ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odin#Origins] ''Wikipedia article of Odin, the last paragraph in Origins''</ref>

''Odin is the god of wisdom in Norse mythology, and father to [[Thor]]. In one account, he gained his wisdom by sacrificing his eye to the wellspring beneath the [[Yggdrasil]], the World Tree. There he foresaw [[Ragnarök]], the final battle that would destroy the world and the gods themselves, and also that even with his knowledge he would be unable to stop it.'' <ref>''Tomb Raider Underworld Journal Entry [[Journal_(TRU)#Odin|ODIN]]''</ref>

''On the wall is written "My son, your treasures here and far are protected by the dead - this gauntlet's twin, [[Megingjord]], and the mighty [[Mjolnir]] - to keep [[Jörmungandr]] subdued." Whether the historical Odin was the literal father of [[Thor]] is not certain, but the two figures were related in some manner. [[Thor's Hammer|Thor's hammer]], [[Thor's Belt|belt]], and gauntlets were apparently hidden throughout the world to restrain the [[Midgard Serpent]], Jörmungandr. What this means exactly, amd the nature of the Midgard Serpent, are unknown. Perhaps the reference on how the arifacts are "protected by the dead" is a clue.'' <ref>''Tomb Raider Journal Entry [[Journal_(TRU)#Odin.27s_Map_Room|ODIN'S MAP ROOM]]''</ref>
