Hercules (Heracles) hero: famous for his strength and adventures, including the Twelve Labours e.g. slay the Nemean lion). Atalanta hero: famous for slaying the Calydonian boar; tricked by desire for golden apples into marriage (loses a footrace). Norse Mythology Ginnungagap an empty void or seeming emptiness; the primordial void separating Niflheim and Muspell; from here, life begins with the origin of the frost giant Ymir. Ymir the primordial giant that gave rise to the Norse world; created the race of frost giants; also, created Buri, the first god; Buri s sons were Odin, Ve and Vili they killed Ymir and with his skull made the sky and his eyebrows created Midgard; his bones formed the mountains and his blood all water. Aesir The collective name for the principal race of Norse gods; they who lived in Asgard, and with the All-Father Odin, ruled the lives of mortal men, along with the Vanir.
4 Vanir nature and fertility gods that eventually join the Aesir. Odin the all-father; associated with wisdom, poetry and magic; gave his eye to Mimer to obtain wisdom; brooding and oversees Valhalla; killed by the wolf Fenrir (son of Loki) during Ragnarok. Thor god of thunder and son of Odin; lightning flashes whenever he throws his hammer, Mjollnir; the greatest warrior in Asgard; associated with thunderstorms; kills the Midgard serpent Jormungand (child of Loki) during Ragnarok, but dies from its poison.

His death marks the beginning of the end for the Norse Gods. Heimdallr watchman of the gods against the giants; guards the Bifrost bridge into Asgard; he can see a hundred miles around him (night and day); his hearing is so accurate he can hear the grass grow. Loki trickster and god of mischief; crafty and malicious, yet regarded as heroic; becomes progressively less pleasant and helpful as Ragnarok approaches; a god amongst the Aesir and a giant; punished with dripping venom from a snake for his devious plots; it is thought that this roots out evil from Asgard, but it doesn t because the gods are quite fallible like humans; they fail to recognize this and it will spell the end of everything as things fall out of balance; he kills and is killed by Heimdall during Ragnarok. Tyr god of war; inspires courage and heroism, since he willingly lost his hand to chain the wolf Fenrir; his spear is a symbol of justice; later in Norse terminology, Tyr literally became the word god; kills the hellhound Garm during Ragnarok, but dies of wound inflicted by the beast. Freya former Vanir who joins the Aesir; the goddess of love and fertility she is beautiful; ironically, the top Valkyrie who collects half the valorous dead herself for her hall (Sessrumnir); all valorous women proceed to her hall as well; demonstrates the fixation and reality of death in the Viking world, even though she promotes life. Valhalla hall of the valorous slain, presided over by Odin; you get to fight and be killed every day and all the mead and song one could ever hope for Valkyries choosers of the slain; beautiful young women on winged horses with helmets and spears; they select who will die and who will be escorted to Valhalla after death; known to perform errands for Odin as well; their flickering armor in the sky creates the Aurora Borealis. Hel ruler of the realm of the dead; Loki s youngest child; described as half alive and half dead, a corpse-like horrible hag; those not taken to Valhalla are destined for her world. Idun goddess of eternal youth; manages the golden apples to keep the Aesir gods young; rescued by Loki when abducted by the storm giant Thiazi. Kvasir wisest of the Vanir responsible for the creation of mead and poetry both for gods and Midgard poets.

The Nine Worlds 1) Midgard the only visible world; the one inhabited by people; in the middle. 2) Asgard home of the Aesir gods and Valhalla. 3) Vanaheim associated with nature and fertility home of the Vanir gods. 4) Jotunheim land of the giants. 5) Niflheim the primordial world of ice. 6) Muspelheim the primordial world of fire. 7) Alfheim the world of elves. 8) Svartalfheim the world of dwarves. 9) Helheim the realm of Hel inhabited by those who do not achieve Valhalla not an evil place in and of itself.
