The Chantry of Jormungandr is an organization steeped in Wodenism, however, its adherents favour the exploits and significance of Jormungandr, the World Snake. A fable from the Book of Woden tells of Jormungandr's discovery and salvation when as an infant, Jormungandr was given the sea as his home. The legends continue that Jormungandr has since grown to encircle the globe and now bites its own tail, making it truly endless.
Unlike the Temple of Woden, the Chantry of Jormungandr is not a bookish sect and rarely, preach directly from the Book of Woden. Their simple prayers to Jormungandr are rarely more complex than "Give me strength." They regularly train clerics, druids and other Wodenist clergy to assist in the everyday lives of the Aydahar and Ungir citizens they serve.
