Odin-y

adj. Much like the God of thunder. Actually, more like the God of...one-eyed badasses with ravens?

Real citation: "Giles seems more 'Odin-y,' which the whole detached-from-the-fray Watcher thing, and the research / book-learnin' stuff subbing for Odin's watchful nature (having two Raven spies, Hugin and Munin, and an 'all-seeing throne' at the top of the world in Hildskialf) and knowledge of the runes, which are the keys to all things in creation."

Made-up citation: "My new rat terrier is quite adorable, though not very Odin-y."
