Wodanaz Spears

Fighting for immortal honour, these warriors are inspired to great acts on the battlefield.

Wodanaz is, in many ways, the all-encompassing Germanic god. Worshipped throughout the tribes, known as Odin within Norse mythology and thought to be the equivalent of Mercury from the Roman pantheon, all-powerful Wodanaz inspired German warriors as the bringer of victory. It was he who stood in judgement over a conflict; he who would ultimately decide the victor. Any warrior who fell in battle automatically joined the war god’s own army. Wodanaz also carried a mighty spear, and those men with the strength and status to carry larger thrusting spears fought in his image. A German warrior would routinely call upon the gods in preparation for battle, his shield brought close to the mouth to amplify and deepen the sound, further intimidating the enemy.
