As a girl, Odin was adopted by the Young family who had found her wandering around Durem (and no, they did not find it disconcerting that she was toting around a large scythe on her back then). The family had taken her in and raised her alongside their son Joshua. She had been a sickly girl, which prevented her from leaving the house and interacting with other children.
For the longest time, she was confused and distraught, and could not accept that she was being taken in as part of a family. Other people would call her a troubled child. This led her to have frequent nightmares and bouts of hysteria, where she would wake up terrified in the middle of the night and then cry herself to sleep again. On the really terrible nights, Odin would escape from the house which would lead to the rest of the family scouring the city for her during ungodly hours. She tried to distance herself from the family and would often sit alone in the house, avoiding all their attempts at interaction.
Joshua would be the first of them Odin warmed up to. Their parents would have him take charge of caring for her whenever she was ill, which the boy had resented initially. He then eventually grew a sincere fondness for his adoptive sister, being her only playmate and friend, and she grew to trust him greatly as well. They had grown up close, with Joshua being Odin’s protector and role model, helping her recover from her inexplicable grief, and slowly she accepted that she did belong to their family.
As misfortune would have it, the children would be orphaned years later when thieves broke into their house and murdered their parents. Luckily though, the family’s caretaker Clarence had been around that night and had fought off the intruders with Joshua, although they had been badly hurt defending themselves and Odin from the thieves. From then on Odin and Joshua had been under the care of Clarence, who had been named as their legal guardian. Joshua had assumed his role as the head of the family at the age of 17, caring for Odin as a father would and carrying on the family business with Clarence’s guidance.
Not long after that incident, Odin had asked Joshua to teach her how to fight so that she’d be able to defend herself and not have to depend on him and Clarence. He was apprehensive at first but had given in after months of persistent pestering from Odin, and with the condition that she would also let him teach her how to do household chores as part of her training. He had taught her the basics of everything he knew about combat and Odin was quick to learn, soaking up everything he threw at her. In a year and a half she was, on the surface at least, a normal teenaged girl, who oddly knew combat and was overly clean about their household (with the exception of her own room, which she claimed “was her personal space anyway” and that she didn’t mind it being messy).
During the first war Odin was dead-set on joining the Order, much to Joshua’s distress. She had gone to him before leaving for the training camp to tell him that this was her way of thanking him “for everything since the beginning.” She had told him that this time, it was her turn to protect him, and he begrudgingly let her go.
Odin had mostly been a wallflower in the Order, an ever obedient soldier who stayed in the background but did as she was told. It was afterwards that she started to slowly open herself up to others in the Order.
