Sleipnir is Odin's eight-legged horse in Norse mythology. It was born from a union of Loki in the form of a mare and the horse Svadilfari, as a means of delaying the builder of the walls of Asgard from completing them on time, which would allow them to take the goddess Freya for themself. After causing Svadilfari to run off into the woods\, Loki gave birth to the gray, eight-legged foal some time later. Sleipnir was described as being the best horse among the Aesir and men.
"The steed of Odin in Norse mythology. He has eight legs and can fly through the sky as well as travel underwater. He was also not infrequently depicted as a centaur. His name means "gliding smoothly." Long ago, the gods promised the giants that if the giants could rebuild the walls of the god's fortress of Asgard within an agreed-upon time, the giants would receive the goddess Freya. The giants used the magical horse Svadilfari to complete their task on time. Loki changed himself into a mare and seduced Svadilfari. Thus was Sleipnir born."
