Odin

Character Outline

Woden, or Odin, first appeared in episode XXXVII: The Birth of Evil, was portrayed as the powerful Norse god of war, wisdom, battle, and death and seemed to carry an air of benevolence and wisdom as well as respect and awe for the power he wields. His appearance was similar to a viking as he was wearing a golden-white tunic, a large helmet with wings he also had a blond beard and an eye patch over one eye. During the battle against the dark entity in space, he rode on his eight-legged horse Sleipnir.

History

Millions or billions of years before Jack was even born, Odin, along with his fellow gods, Ra and Vishnu, were battling a great evil entity somewhere in the vastness of outer space. Their divine weapons injured and burnt the great evil in the same way that Jack's katana did, but given the regeneration power the entity possessed, it could not be defeated in a few blows, since its substance was difficult to destroy even through the use of their collaborative attacks. In the battle, Odin cut off a part of the entity with Gungnir. but its divine power didn't burn away the severed part completely, allowing it to drift away from the scene, seemingly unnoticed by them.

For eons, the severed piece of the Great Evil drifted through Outer Space and eventually landed on prehistoric earth, wiping out all the dinosaurs, existing in the form of Tar-Like Pits...
