Uruz



Rune: Uruz (ooo-rooz) #2 The god Vidar and belonging to the goddess Freya.

Vidar is the son of Odin and the giantress Grid. He is very reclusive and lives in a forest palace. Due to his giantress mother, he is very strong and a force to be reckoned with. He can usually be found wearing armour and carrying a large broad sword. He wears on his right foot a shoe of segmented iron. It was used on the last day of the world to defeat the Fenris Wolf. This conflict would end in total devastation, but Vidar would survive to rule in a new world. The rune, Uruz, is a rune of endings and beginnings.
