Tiw is a deity worshiped
Tiw is called "the warrior"{{book ref|frugal|11}}.
According to [[Sefawynn]], he once bound the wolf [[Fenris]] and was fated to eventually be killed by him. However, when the [[Black Bear]] freed Fenris, Fenris consumed the goddess [[Friag]] instead, and Tiw escaped his fate{{book ref|frugal|13}}.
Sefawynn swears by "Tiw's holy name".{{book ref|frugal|11}}.
==Trivia==
* In the real world's mythology, Tiw is the Old English name of the deity equivalent to the better-known Norse god Tyr. The modern English word Tuesday comes from this name ("Tiw's day").{{wp ref|Týr}}
