 It belongs to Aegis, the God of the violent seas. Meaning "Helm of Terror/Awe", and "Helm of Aegis". It was believed to protect in battle by making the user appear more fearsome, or to make a stealthy approach invisible. It was also believed that the symbol would take all the negative magic directed at the wearer and send it back 24 fold. The dragon Fáfnir was said to have the Helm of Awe between his eyes/in his possession (depending on translation/interpretation of the sagas). It belongs to Aegis, the God of the violent seas.

 Gram was the name of the sword that Sigurd (Siegfried) used to kill the dragon Fafnir. It was forged by Weyland The Smith and originally belonged to his father, Sigmund, who received it in the hall of the Volsung after pulling it out of a log into which Odin had stuck it—nobody else could pull it out. The sword was destroyed and reforged at least once. After it was reforged, it clove an anvil in half. See Sigurd for more details on the story of Siegfried and Fafnir. Gram was the name of the sword that Sigurd (Siegfried) used to kill the dragon Fafnir.
