Norse Gods and Goddesses (Pt. 8)

Hod:

Hod is the blind god of winter and warriors and he’s often associated with darkness and night time. He’s the son of the All-father Odin and his wife Frigg. He was tricked by Loki into killing his brother, the most beautiful, handsome, and perfect of the gods, Baldur. The story of that is told in part 3 when I talk about Loki. He’s often depicted with having his bow and arrows or the spear that Loki used to trick him with. He doesn’t really have many appearances in Norse mythology. The biggest story of him is when he was tricked into killing his brother.
