This is more or less a long list of original as well as those Norse & Germanic deities that have added throughout the history and evolution of the Heathendom.I likewise decided to leave out all of the Proto-Norse and Proto-Germanic names and specific gender roles of the deities. As over time many entities within the pantheon(s) have been switched, removed, changed or added.
