Hoenir

In Norse mythology, a god given as hostage to the Vanir by the Aesir after the war between the two groups of gods.

The Vanir complained that he was too silent to be an effective member of their council, but among the Aesir he seems to have been the god who gave mind and sense (also speech) to humans.

After Ragnarök, he is to return and use the divining rod.
