Heimdall

Heimdall, in Norse mythology, is a god known as the watchman of the gods. He is often referred to as the "whitest of the gods" due to his fair skin and golden teeth. Heimdall is the son of nine mothers, who are often interpreted as the daughters of Ægir, the sea god, and Ran, a sea goddess. He is associated with the Gjallarhorn, a horn whose blast will signal the beginning of Ragnarök, the prophesied twilight of the gods. Heimdall resides at Himminbjorg, a location at the end of the rainbow bridge Bifröst, from where he keeps watch for any signs of danger. His exceptional senses allow him to hear grass grow and wool grow on sheep, even in the midst of the loud sounds of creation. In Hebrew, Heimdall can be translated as היימדאל (Heimdal). In Old Norse, his name is Heimdallr, and in modern Icelandic, it is Heimdallur. In German, he is known as Heimdall, and in French, he is referred to as Heimdall or Heimdal.
