Your Favorite God and Why.
OK, time for a more feel good thread.
Who is your favorite God (preferably one that is not yours) and why?
Right now, I'd have to say mine is Hanuman. His character is really adaptable to modern themes and there is a lot of really great Hindu-Buddhist imagery depicting him. Agile, a symbol of strength and wisdom, but also with trickery up his sleeve. Also, he's a fricking monkey with a sword. 😎

Odin because he managed to be a badass and a sage.
So is Thor.

Well as you know Hel is the Norse godess of death and the afterlife. I can help you out a bit. She orginally was not supposed to be a scary godess and was seen as benevolent. Hel was not some scary place were people went but a beautiful place to rest when you died.
From my research Hel is also a dark alf and the queen of the dark alfs and dwarves.
I could list lotf of gods and godesses I like but I would probably be here forever and I cant be bothered so i'll justr list them out.
Thor (also the god of marriage, law, promises, fertility, magic and battle)
Odin (im a bit cautious with this god)
Hella
Ivaldi(Father of the elves and dwarves)
Nyx (Greek godess of the night)
Notr(Norse personification of night)
Skadi (Godess of winter and revenge)
Ullr (God of one and one combat, archery, sking and magic)
Volund(King of the elves)
Liu Kang (Chinese god of thunder similar to Thor)
Krishna (Hindu incarnation of Vishnu the sustainer, like Thor kills demons)
...thinks thats it.
