Tobi raised his hand, taking a deep breath before plunging into a long monologue, “In most Polytheistic belief systems, there is usually one who stands above the rest as a leader or a higher god. Such was the case with Odin, he was to Norse mythology as Zeus, Jupiter, Amun Ra was to Greek, Roman or Egyptian mythology, Egyptian being the murkiest to discern a leader among them, the most stunning parallels in mythology might be in Celtic and Norse Mythology. In Celtic Mythology, the god Lugh stands highest according to most mythologists, he is an intellectual god like Odin, as opposed to a god who took his throne by force like Jupiter or Zeus, depictions of both Odin and Lugh show them both to only have one eye. And in artwork, they are often depicted with ravens and spears ,which I think denotes that though they are said to be intellectual, they don’t merely lie down and take it if they should come under battle; The spear is a weapon of war, and the Raven is often an animal connected to battle, strife and death. And also interesting the Druids of the Celtic backrground used their own written language not unlike Runes, called Ogham, which represented different Trees, such as Oak or Elder, to communicate and perform divination.”

Another deep breath, he was starting to turn blue, he’d totally gone on about stuff that probably wasn’t what Professor Lupa wanted to know, but he found it really cool, “As for Odin himself, as I said before, he’s an intellectual god, often associated with wisom, magic, prophecy, and poetry. On the other side of the coin, he is associated with war, battle, hunting, death and victory, overall, and extremely complicated God warranting a lot of study to fully understand him.”
