{{Quote|A legendary knight who rides his beloved horse Sleipnir to deliver a crushing blow, the "[[Zantetsuken (ability)|Zantetsuken]]."|''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (2008)|Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'' Summon Compendium}}
'''Odin''' ({{j|オーディン|Ōdin|fmt=j,r}} or {{J|オーディーン|Ōdīn|fmt=j,r}}) is a recurring [[summoned monsters|summon]] in the series. He made his debut in ''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' and several of his appearances allude to his original encounter.

Most commonly, Odin will appear and slice through enemies with [[Zantetsuken (weapon)|his sword]], cleaving them in two and inflicting [[Instant Death]]. His ability in most ''[[Final Fantasy series|Final Fantasy]]'' games is called "[[Zantetsuken (ability)|Zantetsuken]]." Other games allow Odin to damage enemies normally as well, should they be immune to instant death.

Odin is a demonic-looking knight with horns, a long, curved scimitar and a cape. This progressed to include a lance-type weapon called [[Gungnir (weapon)|Gungnir]], as per his mythological origin. The horse Odin rides takes on demonic attributes as well, such as red eyes and body armor. [[wikipedia:Sleipnir|Sleipnir]], Odin's steed in Norse mythology, has eight legs. In some games in the series, Odin's steed has six legs. In ''Final Fantasy III'' Sleipnir can be encountered as a six-legged enemy, while Odin's steed is a normal horse.

From ''Final Fantasy III'' up to ''Final Fantasy VI'', Odin is obtained in a secret passage in a castle. This tradition somewhat continues in later games, with Odin being found in a safe in an abandoned mansion in ''Final Fantasy VII'', in a locked room in old ruins in ''Final Fantasy VIII'', and the skill Odin's Sword is learned from an item found in a secret room in a castle in ''Final Fantasy IX''.

[[Summoner (Final Fantasy III)|Summoners]], [[Evoker (Final Fantasy III)|Evokers]], and [[Sage (Final Fantasy III)|Sages]] can cast Odin. Odin can be [[Summon (command)|summoned]] after being defeated or bought, using the Level 6 Summon Magic spell Catastro.

Depending on the job summoning Odin, he may use the following abilities:
* White summoning: Protective Light: casts [[Reflect (status)|Reflect]] on the party.
* Black summoning: Slash: damages one enemy.
* High summoning: Zantetsuken: instantly KO all enemies.

{{For enemy|Odin (Final Fantasy IV 2D)|Odin (Final Fantasy IV 3D)}}
The [[King of Baron]] takes the role of Odin, having taken the form of a summoned beast after being murdered by [[Cagnazzo#Final Fantasy IV|Cagnazzo]]. He can be fought in the basement of [[Baron Castle]] after visiting the [[Passage of the Eidolons]]. The Feymarch [[library]] informs that Odin was undefeated until he was struck by lightning when his sword was raised into the air, which explains his weakness to [[Lightning (element)|Lightning]].

After defeating him, Odin can be summoned by [[Rydia]]. It has a [[Charge Time|casting time]] of 2 and cost 45 [[MP (stat)|MP]] to summon. There is a 50% chance Odin will slay any given foe, but like other instant death attacks, it does not work against bosses.

In the ''Easy Type'' version, the casting time was reduced to 1.

==== ''[[Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-]]'' ====
Odin is a summon spell for Rydia. There is still a 50% chance that Odin will slice the enemies in pieces at the cost of 45 MP, but it does not work against bosses. He is only available during the final battle.

==== ''[[Final Fantasy IV: The After Years]]'' ====
{{For enemy|Odin (The After Years boss)}}
Odin appears in the Gathering Chapter in a boss battle teamed with [[Cecil Harvey]] against [[Ceodore Harvey|Ceodore's]] party. He is under [[Maenad]]'s control, but comes to his senses and knocks out Cecil freeing him from Maenad's possession. Odin becomes a summon for Rydia and is also used in a [[Band (The After Years)|Band]] move called Iron Flash that grants his power to Cecil, dealing damage to all enemies, and has a chance to inflict instant death.

Odin's attack (upon summon) is Zantetsuken, and functions similarly to the attack from the original ''Final Fantasy IV''.

=== ''[[Final Fantasy V]]'' ===
[[File:Odin-ffv-ios.png|left|Odin.]]
{{main|Odin (Final Fantasy V)}}
The [[Summoner (Final Fantasy V)|Summoner]] job class can call Odin. His attack, Zantetsuken (Sword of Vengeance), slices enemies in two. If there is a [[Heavy (term)|heavy]] enemy on screen, Odin uses an attack called Gungnir (Javelin), which deals [[non-elemental]] damage to one opponent.

He is found in the basement of [[Castle of Bal]] in the [[merged world]]. The basement is accessible through the [[Jachol Cave]] and the party has to defeat him in one minute or less or he will use Zantetsuken to finish them off. Odin costs 48 MP to summon.

{{main|Odin (Final Fantasy VI)}}
Odin is the guardian [[Esper (Final Fantasy VI)|esper]] of the [[Ancient Castle (Final Fantasy VI)|Ancient Castle]], from where he is obtained. Odin performs Zantetsuken (called Atom Edge in earlier translations) when summoned, attempting to dispatch all enemies instantly for a cost of 70 MP. He teaches the [[Meteor (Final Fantasy VI)|Meteor]] spell at a rate of x1. His [[Level|level up]] bonus increases [[Speed (stat)|Speed]] by 1. Odin is the only esper to grant a [[Final Fantasy VI stats#Speed|Speed]] bonus in the SNES and ''[[Final Fantasy Anthology|Anthology]]'' versions, causing many players to hold on to him for a while before upgrading Odin to [[Raiden (Final Fantasy VI)|Raiden]]. However, in the ''[[Finest Fantasy for Advance|Advance]]'' and subsequent versions, the esper [[Cactuar (Final Fantasy VI enemy)|Cactuar]] grants a superior bonus of +2 Speed, so Odin can be safely upgraded.

[[File:Zantetsuken.jpg|thumb|right|Odin in the Steel Bladed Sword animation.]]
{{main|Odin (Final Fantasy VII)}}
Odin [[Summon Materia (Final Fantasy VII)|Summon Materia]] is found within the [[Mansion (Final Fantasy VII field)|Mansion]] in [[Nibelheim (Final Fantasy VII field)|Nibelheim]]. The Materia contains the instant death effect, which can be used by linking Odin Materia with [[Added Effect (Final Fantasy VII)|Added Effect]] in weapon or armor to either [[Add Status|add the effect]] to physical [[Attack (command)#Final Fantasy VII|attacks]] or make the wearer immune to instant death.

Odin has two attacks: Steel Bladed Sword [sic] and Gunge Lance. Steel Bladed Sword (a rough translation of Zantetsuken) has 92% chance of instantly killing the enemies vulnerable to it and will always kill at least one opponent. Odin uses Gunge Lance when no one on the field would die to Steel Bladed Sword, whether because it would have missed or because the enemy is immune to instant death. Gunge Lance inflicts non-elemental damage to one opponent.

The power of Gunge Lance is equal to 4.875x the base magic damage.

==== ''[[Before Crisis -Final Fantasy VII-]]'' ====
[[File:Odin-bcffvii.png|thumb|right|Odin.]]
Odin can be summoned in battle using the [[Summon Materia (Before Crisis)#Odin|Odin Materia]]. Odin attempts to inflict instant death on all enemies when summoned. Materia is obtained by taking photos with one's cellphone and converting the images into Materia; the Materia's type depending on the colors on the photo.

Odin can be added to the [[Digital Mind Wave]] by obtaining his Materia by completing [[Missions (Crisis Core)|Mission]] 8-1-6. His signature attack remains Zantetsuken and it attempts to remove all enemies from the [[Battle (term)|battle]]. Only a small group of enemies are immune to this effect. The level of his summon is insignificant, because it has the same effect on all levels.

=== ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'' ===
[[File:FF8 Odin.png|right|200px|The Guardian Force Odin.]]
{{Main|Odin (Final Fantasy VIII)}}
Odin is an optional non-controllable [[Guardian Force]] who appears randomly at the start of battles to instantly kill the enemies with Zantetsuken, slicing them in half. Odin will not usually appear against bosses (with one exception), [[Tonberry (Final Fantasy VIII enemy)|Tonberries]], [[Cactuar (Final Fantasy VIII enemy)|Cactuars]], [[Vysage]], [[Lefty]], [[Righty]] or [[Grat (Final Fantasy VIII)|Grats]]. If the player acquires Odin before battling [[Seifer (boss)|Seifer]] at the top of [[Lunatic Pandora]], Odin will be replaced by another summon—[[Gilgamesh (Final Fantasy VIII)|Gilgamesh]]—who serves a similar role to Odin as a random summon, though with different effects. If obtained after the battle with Seifer, the player can keep Odin until the end of the game.

Odin is acquired from the [[Centra Ruins]]. Once entered, a 20-minute [[timer]] will appear, counting down until the player defeats Odin. The player must solve a few puzzles within the time limit, obtain a code and open the door to where Odin awaits. After the player opens the door, the player may leave Centra Ruins and return to get more time to defeat Odin. Defeating Odin nets [[Odin (Final Fantasy VIII card)|his Triple Triad card]], and he will appear randomly at the start of a random encounter.

{{Main|Odin (Final Fantasy IX)}}
[[Dagger (Final Fantasy IX gameplay)|Dagger]] can gain the ability to summon Odin by equipping the [[Dark Matter (Final Fantasy IX)|Dark Matter]]. Odin takes 30 AP to learn. As a summon, Odin performs his [[Zantetsuken (Final Fantasy IX)|Zantetsuken]] to destroy enemies outright. Before Dagger has her eidolons extracted Odin costs 112 MP to summon, but after re-acquiring it, it costs 28 MP. The [[Eidolon (Final Fantasy IX)|eidolon]] Odin is used by [[Brahne Raza Alexandros XVI|Queen Brahne]] after she extracts [[Garnet Til Alexandros XVII|Princess Garnet's]] eidolons from her, to attack [[Cleyra]]. 

If Dagger has the [[Odin's Sword (Final Fantasy IX)|Odin's Sword]] ability equipped, the Zantetsuken will deal damage to enemies it does not kill. Dagger can learn Odin's Sword for 50 AP by equipping the [[Ancient Aroma]] found in [[Ipsen's Castle]]. With Odin's Sword. The chances of Odin inflicting instant death on enemies is equal to half the number of [[Ore (Final Fantasy IX)|Ore]] in the player's inventory.

Odin also has a card for [[Tetra Master (minigame)|Tetra Master]], used by endgame card players in the [[Treno]] card stadium and the card phantoms in [[Memoria (Final Fantasy IX)|Memoria]].

{{Quote|Mine obsidian blade shall split atwain the threads of thy future, whilst its crimson fuller shalt channel the lifeblood of thy past. Now wail as thy soul is bestrewn across the plains of Valhalla!|Odin while using Zantetsuken}}
[[File:Odin (FFXI).png|right|220px]]
Odin appears as an [[Avatar (Final Fantasy XI)|Avatar]] and is also the name of a [[server]]. The celestial avatar of darkness, Odin is formally known as the "Dark Divinity." Nearly 900 years ago Odin battled and defeated the iron colossus [[Alexander (summon)#Final Fantasy XI|Alexander]] in a cataclysmic event known as Ragnarok.

Odin grants his power to those he deems worthy, effectively making them his servants. The [[Shadow Lord]], [[Lady Lilith]], and [[Luzaf|Prince Luzaf]] are but a few of his known servants. In the [[Empire of Aht Urhgan]], Odin appoints a servant to serve as the Dark Rider, one who will ultimately face off against Alexander in the next Ragnarok.

Players may battle Odin within "Odin's Chamber" in Valgrind, the final wing of [[Einherjar (Final Fantasy XI)|Einherjar]], located in the [[Hazhalm Testing Grounds]]. He can also be fought in a quest to obtain him as a summon, among other rewards, after completing the ''[[Final Fantasy XI: Treasures of Aht Urhgan|Treasures of Aht Urhgan]]'' storyline.

==== Summon ====
Odin was released as a summonable avatar in the March 2010 update and can only be summoned by a Level 75 or higher [[Summoner (Final Fantasy XI)|Summoner]] under the effect of [[Astral Flow]]. He performs his signature move, Zantetsuken, which uses up all the Summoner's MP and has a chance to instantly KO normal monsters.

Against [[Notorious Monster]]s, it deals damage of around 10-20% of the NMs current HP, but caps at 9999 damage under normal circumstances. Zantetsuken is one of the few known player abilities to cap at 9999 damage. Players' damage is capped ten times higher at 99999.

Odin is mentioned by [[Al-Cid Margrace]] when he reads his intelligence report to the party during their meeting at [[Mt Bur-Omisace]]. Al-Cid mentions that the ''Odin'' is an [[Airship (term)|airship]] of the 1st [[Archadian Imperial Fleets|Fleet]] of the [[Archadia]]n Imperial Army. All Imperial airships are named after recurring ''Final Fantasy'' summons.

{{Quote|Odin... cut us a path!|[[Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII)|Lightning]]}}
Odin is the [[Eidolon (Final Fantasy XIII)|Eidolon]] residing in [[Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII)|Lightning's]] rose-shaped [[eidolith]]. He is a gigantic horned knight who wears a white cape and wields a large double-sided serrated S-shaped sword in one hand, known as [[Zantetsuken (Final Fantasy XIII weapon)|Zantetsuken]], with a massive shield on his opposite arm. Lightning and [[Hope Estheim|Hope]] face Odin as a boss on the [[Vile Peaks]], as a test to prove Lightning's strength to him.

Odin is a [[Lightning (element)|lightning-elemental]] Eidolon and has many powerful and diverse physical and magical attacks. He acts as a [[Sentinel (Final Fantasy XIII)|Sentinel]], drawing all enemy attacks; enemies have a "hate value," which determines what party members they attack based on by whom they have been attacked, and Odin automatically raises this to 100%, making any foe he attacks focus on him.

Lightning's Gestalt Gauge increases by driving up enemy [[Stagger (Final Fantasy XIII)|chain gauges]] and by healing herself and removing [[Final Fantasy XIII statuses|status ailments]]. As Odin has difficulty in driving up enemy chain gauges, it may be better to place Lightning as a [[Ravager (Final Fantasy XIII)|Ravager]] when summoning, to increase Odin's Gestalt Gauge, prolonging the time he can spend in Gestalt Mode.

In his Gestalt Mode, Odin transforms into the horse Sleipnir for Lightning to ride. His finishing attack is Zantetsuken, which will inflict instant death to opponents, if certain criteria are met.

==== ''[[Final Fantasy XIII-2]]'' ====
[[File:XIII-2 Odin.jpg|thumb|Odin.]]
{{For enemy|Twilight Odin}}
Odin is Lightning's Eidolon, fighting alongside her against [[Caius Ballad]] in [[Valhalla (Fabula Nova Crystallis)|Valhalla]]. ''[[Final Fantasy XIII-2 Fragments After]]'' further elaborates that the Eidolons that appear in Valhalla once belonged to other [[l'Cie]], and that the monsters scattered throughout Valhalla are Odin's subordinates.

[[Twilight Odin]] is an opponent [[Serah Farron|Serah]] and [[Noel Kreiss|Noel]] encounter within the Vile Peaks. After defeating him in both 10 AF and 200 AF he can be recruited into the party as a [[Commando (Final Fantasy XIII-2)|Commando]], starting with low [[stats]] and requiring highest grade items to level up in the [[Crystarium system]].

Twilight Odin is a [[Paradox (Final Fantasy XIII-2)|paradox]], a manifestation of the memories of the real Odin.

==== ''[[Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII]]'' ====
[[File:Odin-LRFFXIII.png|thumb|Odin.]]
Odin appears as the [[Angel of Valhalla]], a [[white chocobo]] Lightning encounters in the [[Wildlands]] of [[Nova Chrysalia]]. He has been attacked and injured by a [[Chocobo Eater (Lightning Returns)|Chocobo Eater]], and she must nurse him back to health. She notes a strange familiarity to the creature, and if she visits [[Moogle Village (Lightning Returns)|Moogle Village]] at this time [[Mog (Final Fantasy XIII-2)|Mog]] shares her sentiment. After healing Angel of Valhalla, Lightning can ride him around the Wildlands and he will fight alongside her in battle. After Lightning leaves the [[Temple of the Goddess (Final Fantasy XIII)|Temple of the Goddess]], [[Paddra Nsu-Yeul|Yeul]] reveals to Lightning that the Angel of Valhalla is Odin. If Lightning visits Mog she tells him of this, and Mog tells her how he first met Odin in Valhalla and though Lightning hopes Mog and Odin would become friends, Mog remains hesitant.

As Lightning and her friends prepare to depart to the [[New world (Lightning Returns)|new world]] Odin fades away with the other Eidolons.

Lightning can obtain a replica of Odin's weapon as a weapon for herself, called [[Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII weapons#Gagnrad|Gagnrad]].

{{Quote|A fell knight clad all in black, Odin roams paths long forgotten beneath the canopy of the Black Shroud.<br/><br/>There are none now alive who know the truth of when or by whom this elder primal was first summoned into the world. Ever vigilant as he sits astride his mighty steed, Sleipnir, it is said that Odin is driven solely by the desire to do battle with worthy foes.|Official website description<ref>http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/world/threats/primals/odin</ref>}}
Odin is a roaming [[primal]]. Unlike other primals, his essence is contained not within the land itself but within his sword, Zantetsuken. Rather than binding servants to his will to summon him with crystals like the primals of the [[Beastmen|beast tribes]], he ensnares the soul of whoever takes up his blade and uses the aether of the [[Black Shroud]] to manifest himself once more.

When Odin appears once more in the Shroud, the [[Order of the Twin Adder]] call upon the adventurers to travel defeat him. Though Odin himself vanishes upon his defeat, his sword remains; [[O-App-Pesi]] and [[E-Sumi-Yan]] study it and determine the true nature of Odin's existence before sending the blade back to [[Gridania]] to be sealed away forever. However, the soldier entrusted with the blade falls prey to Odin's will and flees with it, portending the eventual return of the Dark Divinity.

Apart from the trial at Urth's Fount, he can appear in any one of the four Shrouds around Gridania—his appearance heralded by a sudden change in the [[weather]] called "Tension:" skies darkening and motes of light floating in the air. Odin will always appear as the race of the previous adventurer to deal the killing blow, albeit clad in the same armor.

[[Minion (Final Fantasy XIV)#Wind-up Odin|Wind-up Odin]] is a [[Minion (Final Fantasy XIV)|minion]] the player can acquire as part of the 360 day Veterans Rewards.

The ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'' version of Odin made a cameo appearance in the event [[Lightning Strikes (Final Fantasy XIV)|Lightning Strikes]], during the final FATE battle in the event sequence.

This specific version of Odin appears in ''Phantasy Star Online 2'' as an Emergency Quest event boss. It also appears rarely on exploration quests, but it will have the head of a random NPC from the game instead of its normal head.

A magicite simulacrum of Odin can be summoned in the new Deep Dungeon [[Heaven on High]], where he will use [[Zantetsuken (ability)|Zantetsuken]] to instantly kill any mobs. Unlike the other primals, who only deal high to low damage to bosses, Odin is capable of instantly killing every boss as well.

Odin can be obtained by completing the Chapter 6 mission "[[The Clash on Big Bridge (Type-0 mission)|The Clash on Big Bridge]]".

Odin uses three attacks: Moonring Blade, a wide sword slash that can hit a group of enemies; Cavalier Charge, which allows Odin to quickly close distance between him and the enemy to get in range to attack; and Zantetsuken, Odin's trademark attack that can cut an enemy in half, instantly killing them. The player must hold the button to charge Zantetsuken. Prance is a quick sidestep.

[[File:DFFOdin.png|thumb|The automatic version of Odin.]]
[[File:DFFOdin2.png|thumb|The manual version of Odin.]]
Odin is a [[Summon (Dissidia 2008)|summon]] that uses Zantetsuken, which creates a Break on the opponent's [[Bravery (stat)|Bravery]] points, with a 50% accuracy. Odin can be summoned by two ways: automatically, where his ''Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-'' artwork appears, and manually, where his ''Final Fantasy VI'' artwork appears.

Odin's auto version can be obtained in the third stage of the [[Shade Impulse/Chapter 1|Shade Impulse I]] storyline, and its manual version can be obtained in the third stage of the [[Shade Impulse/Chapter 2|Shade Impulse II]] storyline. The auto version will only be summoned when enemy's Bravery exceeds the player's current HP.

==== ''[[Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy]]'' ====
Odin is a [[Summon (Dissidia 012)|summonstone]], with the same function as in ''Dissidia''. His auto version is now found in [[Treachery of the Gods/Chapter 5|Chapter Five: Forsaken Kingdom]] of Scenario 012. The manual version can be purchased from certain [[Moogle Shop]]s for 40 [[KP]].

==== ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy NT]]'' ====
{{Quote|Your lives shall end as rust upon my steel.|Odin prior to battle}}
Odin is one of seven summons obtainable by the player, though he can be acquired at the start by random. When summoned, Odin attacks mainly by charging across the arena on Slepnir and slashing with his sword while raining down electrified spears. His finishing move is Zantetsuken, which when perceived on the receiving end, is shown as a powerful slash that causes the screen to crumble away, showing the results underneath. His pre-summoning effect is Greased Lightning, which increases the rate at which the dash gauge recovers. Afterwards, it become Bladeglint, which also increases movement speed. When summoned, the controller's sync light becomes light purple. In the console's story mode, he is confronted by Lightning and Squall.

As a boss, Odin rides on Slepnir, attacking party members by charging at them with his sword, occasionally swapping it out with a lance for a thrusting attack. Slepnir will also raise his forelegs to slam the arena with a mighty shockwave that launches anyone grounded. He can also counter attacks with his shield up. His HP attacks are Verhawen, attacking with a low sweeping wave of energy launched from a sword swing, Scheitelhau being a vertical variation and Gungir, where he tosses a lance into the sky where it splits into multiple lances that rain down on a target.

When his HP is down to half, his Bravery attacks now have follow-ups and his HP attacks now strike twice with Verhawen becoming Doppelhau, Scheitelhau becoming Doppelrundstreich, and Gungir becoming Redoubled Efforts. He also gains access to Zantetsuken, which has a large wind-up but will instantly damage anyone, regardless of their distance from him

Odin appears as a scenery element in Fantasia Track, with the same appearance as in the ''Chocobo Mysterious Dungeon'' series.
{{clear}}

=== ''[[Chocobo no Fushigina Dungeon]]'' ===
Odin can be summoned via the use of a summon stone and uses an instant death attack.

==== ''[[Chocobo's Dungeon 2]]'' ====
Odin is the second most powerful summon in the game, behind Bahamut. [[Chocobo's Dungeon 2 feathers#Summoning Feathers|Summoning Feathers]] allow the player to summon a monster. Feathers that allow one to replace the current companion with a summoned monster are lost if the summoned monster dies. Breaking [[Chocobo (Chocobo series)|Chocobo's]] equipment is the most prevalent way to get most every feather; when Chocobo wears a piece of equipment in a dungeon, its Durability hits 0, and the piece of equipment turns into a feather.

If Chocobo already has the feather given when his equipment breaks, the old feather disappears and is replaced by the new feather. Odin feather is obtained when Chocobo's Multi Claw or Counter Saddle have been upgraded from +6 to +9, they break and turn into a feather.

Summons can also be used via summon stones and Chocobo does not need the corresponding feather to use these stones.

When Odin is summoned he uses a strong non-elemental attack on all enemies. It has no weaknesses or strengths. Its abilities include Fenris-Bane and Grungir.

Odin is a useful summon against the most powerful enemy in the game, Death (who has a different name depending on how it appears). Death's defenses render most attacks useless, and even summons like [[Bahamut]] deal only two-digit damage. Odin is the only summon able to deal damage in the hundreds to Death.

=== ''[[Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales]]'' ===
Odin is a non-elemental card, and has six cards under its name.

== Merchandise ==
Action figures of Odin from ''Final Fantasy VIII'' were released along figures of the other Guardian Forces. Odin could be purchased separately, or alongside his horse Sleipnir. As a curious detail, the action figure of Sleipnir shows two stumps for his fourth pair of legs, not present in his ''Final Fantasy VIII'' in-game model. A "crystal" colored version of this set also exists. Odin cannot be posed mounted on Sleipnir.

Odin from ''Final Fantasy VIII'' has appeared in Final Fantasy Creatures Vol. 2 as a secret figurine featuring both Odin and Sleipnir. Different colored versions of the figures exist; crystalline, metallic and full color. The figures were released exclusively in Japan in 2002. Odin can be posed in two different ways: mounted on Sleipnir, or standing on his own.

A limited edition statue of Seifer and Odin has also been released. Every statue comes with a serial number.

Odin from ''Final Fantasy IX'' appears in the Final Fantasy Master Creatures Vol 2 series of monster figures.

T-shirts with ''Final Fantasy XIII'' Eidolon designs have been on sale in the Japanese Square Enix store. The shirts cost ¥3,900, with two versions, Odin or Shiva. ''Final Fantasy XIII'' Play Arts Kai figure of Odin was released in July 2010; it has two forms, Sleipnir or Odin, and the Play Arts figure of Lightning can be mounted on the Sleipnir form. The Eidolons from ''Final Fantasy XIII'' have also been made into action figures in the ''Final Fantasy'' Creatures Kai Vol. 3 series.

Attendees of the ''Final Fantasy XIV'' Fan Festivals in 2014 who defeated the Odin group battle received an "I Beat Odin" t-shirt, similar in fashion to other shirts handed out at trade shows featuring Primal battle events. The shirt features a print of Odin performing Zantetsuken in gold, with the two halves of the picture slightly off-set, to simulate reality being cut by Odin's attack.

== Etymology ==
{{Etym|Odin}} Odin is attributed with the discovery of Runes. He, along with his two brothers, Vili and Vé, is credited with the creation of the realm of mankind, Miðgarðr (Midgard), and for mankind itself. He is the employer of the female warriors known as Valkyries (who control the fate of battles and collect the dead from the battleground), and he reigns over the hall of Valhöll (Valhalla), the Norse equivalent of heaven (only those who fought bravely and died in combat were eligible to enter).

Óðinn sacrificed his left eye to drink from Mimir's Well of Wisdom to gain knowledge of past, present, and future. His eight legged horse, Sleipnir, and his magical dwarven spear Gungnir have also been depicted. At Ragnarök (the end of the gods) Óðinn shall rally the dead warriors to fight on the side of the gods. Óðinn fathered Þór (Thor), the god of thunder, and many others.
