Oath of Óðinn

Alle who swear their Oath to Óðinn, God of Knowledge become his emissaries, and guardians within the realm of man. They are the sworn enemies of the Vanir and of the forces of Ragnarök, and strive to learn as much as they can.   They yearn for Wisdom, acting cautiously in the face of any kind of challenge, rather than behaving recklessly. This is because they know the Allfather seeks lore and hoards knowledge above all.   Before striking, an Alle of Óðinn's Cult will try to listen and learn as much about their foe as they can. Yet, when the time is right, they will not hesitate, even if it means striking first, for the Allfather is nothing if not decisive.
