SOL

Also known as : SUNNA
God of : The Sun | Hall : n/a | Mount : n/a

The daughter of Mundilfari and Glaur who rode across the daytime sky in her chariot pulled by Arvak and Alsvid.

Sol was the sun and although she provides the worlds heat, the light is generated by the manes of the horses who pull her chariot.

To prevent any serious combustion issues, Svalin stands between Sol and the earth, kind of like a giant sun screen - I don't even want to think about what would happen if he ever took a sickie!

Apparently she is constantly chased by Skoll who isn't an admirer, and when there's an eclipse he has almost caught her. "Giddy-up gee gees! Wooh, that was too close!"

He'll get her in the end though and it won't be pretty.
