Wōdmã is the messenger god and god of spirits and miracles in the Northian pantheon in the Epic age. He is associated with supernatural phenomenon, clairvoyance, trance, and sorcery in Northian religious beliefs, in which he may or may not also be the agent of another divinity.

Name

Wōdmã is usually traced to the Proto-Erani-Eracuran word formation *woh₂t-mn̥, from the root *woh₂t- meaning "excitement, madness". Phonologically, it is a regular outcome of the development from Proto-Nordic-Northian to Epic Northian.
