'''Odin''' is a powerful [[summon]] in the ''[[Final Fantasy (franchise)|Final Fantasy]]'' franchise. He makes his first appearance in ''[[Final Fantasy III]]''. Odin is based on the {{wp|Odin|Norse God of the same name}}, and is usually seen riding a six-legged horse. Odin wears steel armor and a helmet that obscures his face and has horns protruding from it. Odin sometimes wears a cape, and he carries both a round shield and a [[scimitar]], although in some games, Odin can also use a lance-type weapon named [[Gungnir]]. The color of Odin's horse varies between appearances, although it usually has red eyes.

In many games, Odin's ability is [[Zantetsuken (ability)|Zantetsuken]], in which he slices through enemies with his sword, cleaving them in two and inflicting [[Instant Death]] upon them. Otherwise, if the enemy is invulnerable to Instant Death, Odin deals regular damage to them.

Once the Odin magicite is equipped by a character, it costs them 70 MP to summon Odin once per battle. Like in ''Final Fantasy V'', when Odin is summoned, he uses Zantetsuken to immediately kill every enemy. Odin teaches [[Meteor]] at an x1 rate and grants a +2 Agility bonus per level-up to the character who has him equipped.

===''Final Fantasy VII''===
In ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'', Odin [[materia]] is found within the [[Shinra Mansion]] at [[Nibelheim]]. Whenever Odin is summoned, there are two attacks that he can use. His standard one is the [[Zantetsuken|Steel Bladed Sword]], in which he slashes regular enemies in half while riding by. For strong enemies and bosses that are invulnerable to [[Death]], Odin instead uses [[Gugnir|Gunge Lance]], in which it throws his Gungnir skyward, followed by non-elemental damage to the enemy.
===''Final Fantasy VIII''===
{{wikipedia|section=yes}}
In ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', Odin is a non-controllable [[Guardian Force]]. Sometimes, when a battle is started, Odin may perform a [[preemptive strike]] on enemies with his Zantetsuken, instantly killing the enemies by slicing them in half. If acquired before the end of disc 3, Odin will appear in a battle with [[Seifer Almasy]], the only time he appears in a boss battle. However, Seifer somehow manages to reverse the Zantetsuken and bisects Odin with his [[gunblade]]. The Zantetsuken is knocked from Odin's hand, and a mysterious hand reaches out of a portal to catch the blade. This is revealed to be [[Gilgamesh]], who replaces Odin for the remainder of the game.
===''Final Fantasy IX''===
{{wikipedia|section=yes}}
[[File:FF9odin.jpg|thumb|200px|Odin in a CG rendered cutscene in ''Final Fantasy IX''.]]
In ''[[Final Fantasy IX]]'', Odin is one of the Eidolons. He is used by [[Queen Brahne]] after she extracts [[Princess Garnet]]'s eidolons from her to destroy [[Cleyra Settlement]]. Garnet can gain the ability to summon Odin through the item [[Dark Matter]]. As a summon, Odin performs his Zantetsuken in the same way he had in previous games, destroying enemies outright. However, if Garnet has the [[Odin's Sword]] ability equipped, the Zantetsuken damages enemies that it does not defeat outright.
===''Final Fantasy XVI''===
[[File:Odin_FFXVI_artwork.png|thumb||left|200px|Artwork for ''Final Fantasy XVI'']]
In ''[[Final Fantasy XVI]]'', Odin is an [[Eikon]] whose [[Dominant]] is [[Barnabas Tharmr]]. Odin is the Eikon of Darkness. Barnabas used Odin to conquer [[Ash]], establishing the [[Kingdom of Waloed]]. Years later, Barnabas primed Odin against the forces of the [[Holy Empire of Sanbreque]] at the [[Battle of Belenus Tor]] on his bid to encroach upon the continent of [[Storm]]. He was challenged by Sanbreque's Eikon, [[Bahamut]], which ended in a stalemate.
