New god Höðr


Homebrew and House Rules


What kind of god is Höðr All he ever did in myths was get tricked by loki and Kill Baldr and also was blind. I want to make an after Ragnarok campaign but for the life of me I can figure what what Höðr's domains and godly influence might be.

so far all i have is (As far as i can figure these gods are the only Ragnarok survivors.)

Balder (Light)
Höðr (the blind god)
Honir (Made man)
Vidar (Vengeance)
Vali ( son of loki got turned into a Wolf)
Modi (Berserkers)
Magni (Strength)
Njord (Wind and seas)
Asphodel (Godess of the sun)
Mani (God of the Moon)
Skoll (Treachery)
Hati (Hate)

Anyway any help would be helpful.

Sczarni

Darkness, War... umm...

He's blind, so he'd probably use divination to make up for it, so Knowledge...

Honestly, I'd say if you've got any domains you're having trouble fitting into the other gods' portfolios, just use them here and fluff it however you want.


Well i was looking for Höðr's godly nitch according to mythology (cant really find one) . The Knowledge thing seems doable because Odin gave his eye for knowledge of the universe and Höðr is the son of odin. (though Höðr is kinda a dumass for being tricked by loki)


Höðr would be Darkness, Divination(New Portfolio), Strength, Water(FOr cold), War

Divination
Divine Knowledge: Allows you to make a knowledge check to find out about a creature or magic item item with a bonus equal to you level + half your wisdom Modifier to your knowledge check. You must place your hand on the creature or magic item to gain this information. You can make the check even if you don't have any ranks in the knowledge skill needed.

Eyes of the gods: At 8th level you gain the ability of blindsense out to 30ft.

Domain Spells: 1st—Detect Secret doors, 2nd—See invisible, 3rd—Clairaudience/Clairvoyance, 4th—Arcane eye, 5th—Telepathic Bond, 6th—Analyze Dweomer, 7th—Arcane Sight, 8th—Prying Eyes, 9th—Foresight.


that's a good start. sense he was tricked into comitting his crime is there an element to his person for redemption?


Can you pronounce that for me?

Hyoder?

Anyway, I think Wintersage has the right idea.


Its pronounced Hod.


Weren't Sun and Moon devoured during early parts of Ragnarok or were they reborn like Baldr?
