considering Freyr's antler weapon.






"Frey had no weapon when he fought with Beli but killed him with a hart's horn." ~ Skírnismál in The Prose Edda


Not that Freyr couldn't take a giant with a regular antler, nor as a Vanic God maybe prefer a thing in its clublike natural state. Yet perhaps Freyr crafted something more like this antler weapon?

Guillermo Maytorena IV knew there was something special in the Norse Lore when he picked up a copy of the d'Aulaires' Norse Gods and Giants at age seven. Since then he's been fascinated by the truthful potency of Norse Mythology, passionately read & studied, embraced Ásatrú, launched the Map of Midgard project, and spearheaded the neologism/brand NorsePlay. If you have employment/opportunities in investigative mythology,  field research, or product development to offer, do contact him.
