Heimdall
He is best known as the Watchman of Asgard, who will blow his great horn Gjallahorn to alert the gods to the beginning of Ragnarok. He is one of the most important gods of Asgard. Heimdall has many powers related to his duty as a watchman. He cannot be snuck up on except by a more powerful deity such as Odin. He can see through illusions and disguises. He can see, hear or sense everything within the realms. It is said that Heimdall could hear the wool growing upon a sheep. Heimdall is a god of watchfulness, sight, hearing, and loyalty. He has power over the domains of law and war. He automatically senses any attempts to reach Asgard as soon as they begin. Wotan personally commisioned relics to be made for him by the smiths Brok and Sindri, these were the horn Gjallarhorn and ax Hofud.
Depiction. Heimdall is a man, seven feet tall, with a great beard. He wears a horned helmet and gleaming white armor.
