Woden the All-Father is the principal deity of the Wodenist religion. He is the purported creator of all of Otan, including all the races of Otan from the Aelfes and Dweorges to the humans and Grendel. Despite his role as the creator, Woden is often seen wandering Otan in the form of an elderly one-eyed man. He is said to have fathered children routinely on his travels, and many noble bloodlines claim Woden as one of their ancestors.
Depictions
Woden is most often depicted as an elderly man, missing his left eye, which is said to float around Otan, making observations. This legend is undoubtedly supported by the Eye of Woden, a satellite that circles the Otan sky. Woden is frequently described as carrying a staff or spear.
His constant companions include two wolves, Geri and Freki, and two ravens, Huginn and Muninn, who bring him information from all over Otan. The names Huginn and Muninn, incidentally, round out the set of the three satellites that orbit Otan, though they likely have nothing to do with the actual celestial ravens.
In other depictions, Woden will appear as a younger, lightly bearded man with golden hair. He will be most often found fully armored, carrying either a great spear, axe, or sword. For transportation, he rides his flying, eight-legged steed, Sleipnir. Sleipnir's extradimensional nature can carry Woden across not only the sky but even into other planes of existence.
