  • The people of Asgard.
  • The cognate term in Old English is ōs (plural ēse) denoting a deity in Anglo-Saxon paganism. The Old High German is ans, plural ensî. The Gothic language had ans- (based only on Jordanes who glossed anses with uncertain meaning, possibly 'demi-god' and presumably a Latinized form of actual plural *anseis). The reconstructed Proto-Germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz). The ansuz rune, ᚫ, was named after the æsir. Unlike the Old English word god (and Old Norse goð), the term ōs (áss) was never adopted into Christian use.
  • The Æsir (pronounced ['aiser] in Icelandic; singular Áss, feminine Ásynja, feminine plural Ásynjur) are the principal pantheon of deities in the Norse mythology. They include many of the major figures, such as Odin, Frigg, Thor, Baldr and Tyr. A second clan of gods, the Vanir, is also present in the Norse mythos. While the Æsir are connected with power and war, the Vanir are mainly involved with cultivation and fertility.
  • Æsir is the third studio album from Swedish doom metal band Yggdrasill Burning, released on October 19th 1994. It is preceded by 1993's Of Loki We Serve and followed by 1996's Vanir. Æsir was voted by Metalix as one of their five landmark doom albums in their December 2009 issue.
  • The Æsir are Kamuy pilots that are skilled enough to be considered gods of war.
  • In Old Norse, áss (or ǫ́ss, ás, plural æsir feminine ásynja, plural ásynjur) is the term denoting a member of the principal groups of gods of the pantheon of Norse paganism. They include many of the major figures, such as Odin, Frigg, Thor, Baldr and Tyr. They are one of the two groups of gods, the other being the Vanir. In Norse mythology, the two are described as having waged war against one another in the Æsir-Vanir War, resulting in the unification of the two into a single tribe of gods.
