Varin's Axe was a bearded axe which belonged to Varin, the father of the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir.
History
The axe was forged some time in the mid-9th century by the blacksmith Gunnar in Heillboer.[1] In 855 CE, the Order of the Ancients member Kjotve the Cruel used it to execute Varin during a raid on the Raven Clan in Rygjafylke.[2] It stayed in his possession as a trophy until 872, when it was recovered by Eivor after she defeated Kjotve's clansmen Rikiwulf before he could kill her crewmate Bragi in a blood-sacrifice.[3]
Eivor held onto it when she joined members of the Raven Clan in leaving Norway for better prospects in England.[4] There, she found sufficient funds and resources to upgrade the axe to different tiers, increasing its attack and lethality against opponents while also displaying finer craftsmanship.[5]

Behind the scenes
The digital model for Varin's Axe, Eivor's starting weapon in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, would later be reused for two weapons in the mobile game Assassin's Creed: Rebellion, with the Superior tier being used for Shieldbreaker and the Flawless tier used for Wurmsbreath.
0n 12 February, 2021, Lead Writer Alain Mercieca revealed that a mini-model of Varin's Axe at its Superior tier was made during Valhalla's production, joking that Eivor's male actor Magnus Bruun had so many troubles handling the life-size prop during mocap he was forced to use the mini, which the post-production team then blew up 500 times for the game files.[6]

Alain Mercieca (@alainmercieca) on Twitter "Lesser-known #AssassinsCreedValhalla fact: this is the actual axe we used in mocap, @Magnus__Bruun had trouble with the normal size axe so we used this miniature and in post production enlarged the axe to 500 times its original size #Truth pic.twitter.com/1RT9iq0ER2"
