Ymir is quite unlike any of the other gods on Otan. He is one of very few gods to be considered by many as possibly fictional, a metaphor for creation. Ymir was supposedly a titan, a giant among giants, born to the primordial void. Being both male and female, he sired and gave birth to the progenitors of the gods, from whence came Woden. Legends are unclear as to whether Ymir's body died or he was killed by Woden, but all of creation was shaped by Woden into the Otan that is known today.

"Out of Ymir's flesh was fashioned the earth,
And the mountains were made of his bones;
The sky from the frost cold giant's skull,
And the ocean out of his blood."
