Who is Odin?

History: Odin is the supreme god of norse pantheon. He had the power to do whatever he wanted. He had power over life and death. He and his brothers created the universe, but he was the king of the gods and the most powerful of them. He was the god of necromancy, magic, wisdom, intellect, poetry, victory, war, wind, travel, shamanism, prophecy, courage, and many other things. He took the power of some people and gave to others, he could make his enemies in battle blind, or deaf, or terrified, and their weapons so blunt that they no more than a wand. Odin could transform his shape, he could quench fire, the ocean in tempest, and the travel of wind. He lie as if asleep, but then he would be in distant lands in twinkling.
