Vidar's Might

Víðarr or Vidar in Norse mythology was the Æsir considered to be the god of vengeance. In the mythological lore, Víðarr was described as the son of Odin and the jötunn Gríðr, and was foretold to avenge his father's death at the jaws of Fenrir by killing the wolf at Ragnarök.

Legacy and influence

Vidar had a totem named after him in the popular dice game Orlog, played during the 9th century. The piece "Vidar's Might" would remove a number of the opponents die from play for that turn. The piece was in the possession of a Norse man in Fornburg, who after being defeated gifted the piece to Eivor Varinsdottir.[1]
