do you consider odin as hero ? why or why not ?

Sagot :

Answer:

Odin is a hero and a true leader indeed. Though it's very important to him, he sacrificed his eye just to protect his welfare. He had the chance to peek on the future and he was able to prevent bad things that may destroy Asgard.

Explanation:

Odin was a great magician among the other gods. He was also the god of poets. In his physicality, he can be described as a tall, old man, with flowing beard and only one eye, the other he gave in exchange for wisdom. He was usually depicted wearing a cloak with a wide-brimmed hat carrying a spear.

What are the instances that made Odin a hero?

Odin died three times in defense of Asgard.

1. On the first occasion, Odin was killed by Mangog, and was only later revived by Hela.

2. On the second occasion, the Celestials melt the Destroyer, and thus stifle all Asgardians except Thor, who collects a portion of energy from each pantheon and uses it to revive Odin, who in turn resurrects the Asgardians.

3. The final occasion involves a massive battle against Surtur on Earth, with Odin dying once and for all, when the Odin Force—the source of Odin's power—migrates to his son, Thor. As Thor eventually destroys the Loom of Fates and stops Asgard from perpetuating Ragnarok—which ends the entire Norse pantheon and Asgard itself—he was convinced that Odin may be gone permanently. The Odin Force appears to him in humanoid form and says that this was Odin's plan all along.

Powers and Abilities of Odin

  • As King of the Norse Gods, Odin possesses immense strength, stamina and durability far from that of a normal Asgardian, along with resistance to all Earthly diseases and toxins, magic and, as a courtesy of the Golden Apples of Idunn, has a greatly extended lifespan. Odin has all the abilities of his son Thor, but to a much greater degree.

  • Odin is capable of manipulating the Odin Force—a powerful source of energy—for a number of purposes, including energy projection; creation of illusions and force fields; levitation; molecular manipulation, communicating telepathically with other Asgardians even if they are on Earth and he is in Asgard, hypnotizing humans; channelling lightning to Earth from Asgard, controlling the lifeforces of all Asgardians, and teleportation. The character has also used the Odin power for greater feats such as transporting the entire human race to an alternate dimension; stopping time; pulling the remains of distant planets down from outer space to crush his foes, compressing the population of an entire planet into a single being, the Mangog, and then recreating the race and taking a soul away from the arch-demon Mephisto.

  • The Odin Force makes Odin capable of destroying entire galaxies, allowing him to engage entities such as Galactus on their own terms.

  • In battles against opponents of similar power, Odin carries the magical spear Gungnir ("The Spear of Heaven"), an artifact made of the metal uru, that can be used to channel the Odin Force. Even without the Odin Force it can still match Thor's hammer in battle.

Odin is also a master tactician and schemer, and has prevented Ragnarok, and planned for centuries for the coming of the Celestial Fourth Host. The character also on occasion uses the eight-legged steed Sleipnirthe and the enchanted ship Skipbladnir, which can navigate the "sea of space" and be shrunk to the size of a toy.
