Description
Queen of Asgard, Odin's wife, the mother of Hod, Baldr and Tyr (and possibly a few more gods), the goddess of motherhood and the all knowing but un-telling seeress, with her loyal servant Fulla
I imagine Frigg being responsible for the day-to-day running of Asgard the two ravens are Hugin (thought) and Munin (memory) which are Odin's spies
the wolves are also Odin's, Freki and Geri
happy mother's day

I love the way you got different tones in their hair and, again, added the interest of movement to the picture. What are your opinions of Hugin and Munin?
π: 0 β©: 1
thanks so much
well, me being me I've made up a load of stuff about them and how they fit into the world
I like them personally, or at least I like my interpretation of them 
π: 0 β©: 1
Cool. 
(I really need to learn to be more concise)
I love your interpretation about them, they sound really fun. It's annoying how the myths say so little about them, but at least it means we can sort of see them how we like. The myths don't even state their genders, for gods sake!!
;D

yes! creative license! 
wow, they sounds great

Thank you!
Yes, they're independent from him, so they only do what he says because he's in charge.
They are shapechangers, similar to raven witches and warlocks. They can either appear as ravens or in human form. Hugin and Munin have acid green and orange eyes, respectively, and black hair. Hugin also wears glasses, though he's not actually visually impaired.

aww, wow that's cool

Munin: "yeah, why do you wear glasses?"
Hugin: "...."
(Its so he gets underestimated by people. Usually they're biased enough not to pay attention to the quiet bookworm in the corner, who probably can't see them anyway, so they let down their guard.)
Hugin: "I am perfectly capable of replying for myself, thank you!"
(Sorry)

awww... he's so adorable, i'm gonna steal him!

Ikr!
Hugin: *glares*

he needs to lighten up
so how did Odin come across them?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's kind of a longish story. Basically, Hugin was a warlock, skilled in raven magic, such as shape shifting and communication through raven familiars. He, however, got caught by the villagers in his hometown. Being superstitious and paranoid, they decided to kill him (they're so nice). Odin saw an oppourtunity, and promised he would prevent Hugin's death and give him immortality if he came and worked for him. Hugin accepted and came to work for Odin, however he was so uncommunicative that Odin needed to find out what was wrong. Hugin, despite being quite stern and reserved, was extremely lonely. Odin hired one of the minor Aesir to keep him company, just until he could find an alternate companion. Munin, who was at this point the young Aesir, despite the number of times she was ignored and glared at, really tried to make him happy, and eventually broke through his mental barriers. After that, secretly, Hugin taught her how to wield raven magic, which she took to extremely quickly, and came to Odin to beg for her to stay. Odin eventually agreed, and Munin was allowed to remain with Hugin. He never told her that he had begged the All-father for her to stay, embarrassed by the fact that he cared so much and scared that she would hate him.
Thank you for asking this question, I really had to think into the characters to come up with a conclusive explaination. Please feel free to ask more questions, it really helps my views of them and character development.

no worries, I love hearing people's interpretations of the Norse myths
so what is your Odin like?
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm so sorry, my electronic device is evil, so I only just found this question!
I pretty much stuck with the traditional Odin, grey beard and all. He's kinda terrifying, and, even if he doesn't, gives the impression that he knows everything. To be honest, I haven't thought him through as much as I should have done, but I want to keep him as close to the 'original', if there is such a thing, as possible.
π: 0 β©: 1
ahhh ok
what about your Loki?
π: 0 β©: 1
He's quite cheerful, but sarcastic most of the time, and doesn't really care about what others think of him, giving a strong impression of indifference. I made sure to keep his original appearance: colour changing eyes, red hair, scarred lips and crooked smile. Despite what some people think, he really does care about and love his children, and Sigyn. He's one of those people that always has some sort of plan, but always stays true to his word when he gives it, no matter who to, meaning that he never breaks a promise. He's also quite optimistic and tries to see the funny side of things, despite what's happened to him.

that's brilliant, he sounds like an amazing guy
π: 0 β©: 1
They got in a fight because he kept getting into trouble and not spending enough time at home, so he went away, got very drunk, and hooked up with Angrboda. Sigyn forgave him after a bit, and even took in the kids when Angrboda died. He didn't get drunk again for a long time...

Loki: "Rain, if you keep telling the entire world about my personal life, I will personally make your life hell. *glares at me*"
(Must've touched a nerve there O.o )

Loki: *blushes* "since I got drunk. On the plus side, I've gained valuable life experience.
Me: "like what?"
Loki: "don't go to Jottunheim and get drunk."
Me: "you must be so proud of yourself."
Loki: "I figured it out all by myself, too. 
π: 0 β©: 1
haha you must be so proud
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "I'm flattered.
π: 0 β©: 1
what about your parents? and your other brothers Helblindi and BΓ½leistr?
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "to be honest, I never talked to my brothers much, and they wandered off to do their own thing before I ever got to know them properly. For some reason, they declared that they weren't going to associate themselves with me because I was 'too infuriating and embarrassing for words'. That didn't really stop them from trying to convey their feelings, but probably hindered the process a bit.
Any more questions? This is fun!"

haha dude, this is why your epic

Loki: "
It was through Odin that I met Sigyn. My family is the only good that ever came from that time, and even that was taken from me to retain my obedience.
On a lighter note, thank you for the compliment.
π: 0 β©: 1
haha you are welcome
that is sad.. Odin sounded awesome.... what about you an Hoenir?
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "he was alright, I guess. Kind if the quiet, creepy type, most of the time, through he seemed unable to decide anything for himself! I mean, anything! Quite literally, most of our conversations were along the lines of "Loki, do be quiet, I can hear myself think!" or "do I breathe in first, or out." ...Okay, he wasn't THAT bad, but you get the picture.
π: 0 β©: 1
haha he sounds like a sweetie
how'd you meet Thor? what was he like?
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "He and I go back so far I can barely remember. He was an arrogant, meat headed oaf, but he was stubborn and strong. I always got dragged along on whatever he did, then blamed for it afterwards.
Hooray for being the bloody scapegoat.
He was one of those "I don't work out, I'm just naturally like this" types with a heck of a temper and an appetite for mead. The type that makes you feel both amused and ready to give up on humanity (if we were human. As we aren't, I can't really phrase it any more effectively). "
π: 0 β©: 1
haha so you don't get on as well as they make in the myths?
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "he started off okay, I guess, but he always seemed to succumb to peer-pressure. The adventuring stuff was always fun, but I've never forgiven him for the part he played with Brokk and against my family.
Myths always exaggerate things. Seriously, if I sneeze, people make it out to be an earthquake or something.
π: 0 β©: 1
well, you must stop sneezing
why did you stay in Asgard after what happened?
π: 0 β©: 1
Loki: "hardly a permanent solution.
After my children were taken? If I left or betrayed the Aesir, they could've been killed. The gods are ruthless enough to do something like that. I tried to think of ways to et them out, but the magic binding the three of them to their prisons was too strong for me to break. I killed Balder for a purpose. As my daughter held him captive and refused to release him unless everything, including me, wept, I came to Odin and tried to bargain the release of my children for Balder, but he refused. He sacrificed his own son to keep my children prisoners and then blamed me for it, including killing my two remaining sons and imprisoning me and, in a way my wife.
I stayed in Asgard and endured all the ridiculousness and, in some cases, pain, in the hope of getting my family back."
