Veneer

Veneer

His name is Fenrir, he continues to grow, and even the gods found it difficult to control him. The son of Loki and a giantess named Angrboda, this wolf personifies destructive forces, and the dwarves of Svartalfheim have created a special chain to keep him under control. He then remained in chains until the dawn of Ragnarok, where he freed himself to eat the moon and sun. In particular, this wolf killed Odin, but he, in turn, was killed by Odin's son Vidar. Then the viking wolf tattoo can denote the loyalty and strength of the owner.

On the other hand, this symbol of strength also evokes associations with Ulfhednar. These are special warriors of Odin, very similar to berserkers. The latter worshiped Odin, but they also praised Tyr. Their rage is uncontrollable when under the influence of drugs, mead and mushrooms. They dressed in bear skins and frightened people who are afraid of wild animals. Unlike berserkers, Ulfheadnar protect the nations, and they fight in groups on the battlefield.
