4. What body part did Odin give up in order to gain more knowledge?

Odin wanted a lot of knowledge of the world around him, and one of the ways for him to get great knowledge was to take a drink from the Well of Mimir. In order to do this, though, the Wellkeeper asked him to give up his eye.

5. What Goddess was wife to Odin?

Along with being the wife of Odin, she is known as being the Mother Goddess and it is said that she wove the clouds.

Answer: true

Loki WAS a giant, but became a God when Odin made him his half-brother. Loki is the god of mischief.

7. What was Thor's weapon of choice?

9. Hel, Goddess of the underworld, was the daughter of whom?

Answer: Loki

Loki had many interesting children: Hel, who was one half a beautiful woman, the other half rotting, decaying flesh; Fenrir, the huge wolf; and Jormungand, an enormous serpent.

10. What killed Baldor, the dying God?

Answer: mistletoe

It is said that one night, Baldor had a dream, and apparently it was a bad dream, because Odin went to the Underworld to see what this dream meant. When Odin got there, Hel fortold Baldor's death. Frigg then asked everything not to kill Baldor, but, since the mistletoe was so young, she didn't bother to ask it.

Then, Loki manipulated the mistletoe to look like a dart, and then got Hod, the blind God to throw it at Baldor during the throwing games, killing him.
