Jötunn

Jötunn, often translated as "giant" or "frost giant," are mythological beings from Norse mythology. They are powerful, ancient creatures typically associated with nature, chaos, and the cold, often in opposition to the gods (Aesir). Jötunn can vary widely, from adversaries like the frost giant Ymir to more complex beings with individual personalities. They embody primal forces and are integral to Norse legends, representing the wild, untamed aspects of the world. Despite their differences, some Jötunn also form alliances or have familial ties with gods, highlighting their importance in Norse mythic tradition.
