Dwarf

Revision as of 05:27, 9 May 2021 by imported>Sol Pacificus ('Creature' usually implies a non-sapient animal which may be applicable in some ideas of dwarves in early folklore but is not how dwarves are usually thought of today. So I opted for just 'entity' for ambiguity.)

A dwarf is an entity from Norse mythology and later European folklore which dwells in mountains and underground. They are heavily associated with mining, smithing, and crafting.

Mythology and folklore

Ivaldi was a dwarf rescued by Odin from a fate worse than death and brought to Asgard, bound to serve the Æsir.[1] He paid off his debt by crafting items of great power,[1] such as Gleipnir, the cord meant to hold Fenrir until Ragnarök began.[2]

Ivaldi's sons were said to be a group of dwarves that made several key pieces for the gods, including Freyr's magically unfolding ship Skíðblaðnir, Odin's magically multiplying ring Draupnir and returning spear Gungnir, and Sif's golden hair.[3]
