* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: He has a SkullForAHead and glowing skin.



* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: One of the only Keepers who's not based on a character from Myth/NorseMythology (he is Greek, Ra is Chinese). This is because he originally wasn't supposed to be one of the Keepers, his inclusion among them being a recent {{Retcon}}.



* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: While all previous Watchers seen have resembled the Titans (or in other words, looked like giant humans), Norushen looks like a Mogu, who were said to be made in his image.

* HammerOfTheHoly: His hammer, the Silver Hand, named for the silver fist design he had added to it after replacing his own hand. It's imbued with radiance of the Light, and Holy Paladin players receive it as their Artifact Weapon in ''Legion''.



* HumongousHeadedHammer: His weapon is the Silver Hand, named for the silver fist design he had added to it after replacing his own hand. It's one of the most ridiculous two-handed hammers in the whole game, though some art makes it less ridiculous by showing it scaled down, so that compared to Tyr it's the size of a still-ludicrous one-handed mallet.

* DiskOneFinalBoss: By the time players hunt down and slay Loken, Yogg-Saron doesn't need him anymore to be a major threat, and we have to assault the Old God directly in a later patch to put that threat to an end.

* ThunderHammer: Would you expect anything else from a Thor {{Expy}}? Although strangely enough, his "hammer" (quoting the game) Krolmir actually looks more like a mace (incidentally, his art in ''[[VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft Hearthstone]]'' such as his above image depicts him wielding an actual hammer).



* DeadHandShot: Up until ''Dragonflight'', his ''only'' visual depiction to date was the above: an image of his artificial silver hand, which was taken from his corpse and used as his burial marker.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Refuses his fellow Watcher's request to make the Dragon Aspects Titan-blessed and huffs off when they overrule him. He later chooses and ascends the Thorognir Storm Dragons to be his servants and favored pets, making it come across like he was less upset about making creatures of flesh Titan-blessed and more upset about making them Titan-blessed and equal to him. [[spoiler: Vyranoth, in particular has her blood boiling after Wrathion tells her about this, and ends up verbally tearing him to shreds in ''Dragonflight'']].

* HumiliationConga: He suffers this in the "Dragon outcasts" storyline in ''Dragonflight'' [[spoiler: a very furious Vyranoth, alongside the player and Wrathion, storms the Halls of Valor after she hears that Odyn has forbid the Thorognir from heeding the Call of the Dragon Isles. Not only do the latter two humiliate the Valarjar, including making a chump out of Heimdall and Vyranoth gets by Eyir without a fight just by calling out Odyn's character flaws, making her stand down. When the three approach him, Wrathion very loudly disrespects him, causing him to forgo the rest of his grandstanding in favor of immediately jumping in to put them down... except Wrathion and the player give him more of a fight than he bargained for. When he finally has enough and blows them away, Vyranoth casually and humiliatingly [[OneHitKO takes him out in a single attack]] by freezing him solid in a block of ice, nails him with a huge TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, and convinces the Thorognir flight to break their oaths and bonds to Odyn, leaving back to the Isles with them in tow.]]

* DealWithTheDevil: Odyn strikes up a deal with Mueh'Zala, The Farraki Trolls' Loa of Death. Exchanging his left eye for the ability to peer into the Shadowlands and retrieve the souls of fallen Vrykul to turn them into either Val'kyr or Valarjar to serve him.


Added DiffLines:

* StartMyOwn: Following the Titans and other Titan Keepers agreeing to Tyrs' decision to elevate the Dragon Aspects as protectors of Azeroth, Odyn would break away from the other Keepers, severing his section of Ulduar to become the Halls of Valor and go about creating his own group of protectors in the form of The Valarjar.

The titans didn't create them to do that, the vrykul afterlives are something that were invented and run by them on their own
