Freyr ( sometimes anglicized Frey, from * frawjaz " lord ") is one of the most important gods of Norse paganism.

In the Icelandic books the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, Freyr is presented as one of the Vanir, the son of the sea god Njörðr, brother of the goddess Freyja.

Along with her brother Freyr ( Old Norse the " Lord "), her father Njörðr, and her mother ( Njörðr's sister, unnamed in sources ), she is a member of the Vanir.

Examples of goddesses attested in Norse mythology include Frigg ( wife of Odin, and the Anglo-Saxon version of whom is namesake of the modern English weekday Friday ), Skaði ( one time wife of Njörðr ), Njerda ( Scandinavian name of Nerthus ), that also was married to Njörðr during Bronze Age, Freyja ( wife of Óðr ), Sif ( wife of Thor ), Gerðr ( wife of Freyr ), and personifications such as Jörð ( earth ), Sól ( the sun ), and Nótt ( night ).

Njörðr responds that this was his reward when he was sent as a hostage to the Æsir, and that he fathered his son ( Freyr ), whom no one hates, and is considered a prince of the Æsir.

Freyr himself interrupts at this point, and says that he sees a wolf lying before a river mouth, and that, unless Loki is immediately silent, like the wolf, Loki shall also be bound until Ragnarök.

Njörðr is father of the deities Freyr and Freyja by his unnamed Van sister, was in an ill-fated marriage with the goddess Skaði, lives in Nóatún and is associated with sea, seafaring, wind, fishing, wealth, and crop fertility.

" In stanza 43, the creation of the god Freyr's ship Skíðblaðnir is recounted, and Freyr is cited as the son of Njörðr.

In the prose introduction to the poem Skírnismál, Freyr is mentioned as the son of Njörðr, and stanza 2 cites the goddess Skaði as the mother of Freyr.

Further in the poem, Njörðr is again mentioned as the father of Freyr in stanzas 38, 39, and 41.

Loki tells Njörðr to " stop " and " keep some moderation ," and that he " won't keep it a secret any longer " that Njörðr's son Freyr was produced with his unnamed sister, " though you'd expect him to be worse than he is.

In chapter 6, a list of kennings is provided for Njörðr: " God of chariots ," " Descendant of Vanir ," " a Van ," father of Freyr and Freyja, and " the giving god.

In the saga, Njörðr is described as having once wed his unnamed sister while he was still among the Vanir, and the couple produced their children Freyr and Freyja from this union, though this custom was forbidden among the Æsir.

After Njörðr's reign, his son Freyr replaces him, and he is greatly loved and " blessed by good seasons like his father.

Consequently, Nerthus has been identified with Njörðr's unnamed sister with whom he had Freyja and Freyr, which is mentioned in Lokasenna.

In Norse mythology, Ragnarök (, or ), typically spelled Ragnarǫk in the handwritten scripts, is a series of future events, including a great battle foretold to ultimately result in the death of a number of major figures ( including the gods Odin, Thor, Týr, Freyr, Heimdallr, and Loki ), the occurrence of various natural disasters, and the subsequent submersion of the world in water.

All sources note that the ship is the finest of ships, and the Poetic Edda and Prose Edda attest that it is owned by the god Freyr, while the euhemerized account in Heimskringa lists attributes it to the magic of Odin.

Like Freyr and Njörðr, Sleipnir is responsible for carrying the dead to the otherworld.

A second clan of gods, the Vanir, is also mentioned in Norse mythology: the god Njord and his children, Freyr and Freyja, are the most prominent Vanir gods who join the Æsir as hostages after a war between Æsir and Vanir.

Freyr is arguably the most famous of the asas.

Some scholars have doubted that they were known outside Scandinavia ; however, there is evidence that the god Freyr is the same god as the Germanic deity Ing ( reconstructed as Proto-Germanic * Ingwaz ), and that, if so, he is attested as having been known among the Goths.
