Suttung was the son of Gilling, and was a Jotun in Norse mythology. Both of Suttung's parents were killed by the dwarves Fjalar and Galar. To keep Suttung from killing them, they offered him a magical mead, which he took and hid in the middle of a mountain. His daughter, Gunnlod, was made to guard the mead. Odin later came and persuaded Gunnlod to allow him three sips, but he tricked her and drank the whole thing. Odin then changed into an eagle and flew off, with Suttung giving chase.
