Ellis Davidson proposed that this character was in league with the Vanir because he also "knew the future well."  A Norse kenning for "head" is "sword of [this man]," and a kenning for "sword" is "head of [this man]."  His own sword was Hofund, and he has three nicknames that mean "Bent Stick," "Wind Shelter," and "Golden-Toothed."  The nine daughters of Aegir may have been the nine mothers of this character, who fathered the progenitors of mankind and allegedly could hear grass grow.  For 10 points, name this "white god," a member of the Aesir
