SIEGFRIED
Sigurd or Siegfried (Old Norse: Sigurðr) is the legendary hero of Nordic mythology, as well as the central figure in the Völsunga story. The earliest available representations for the legend come in pictorial form from seven runestones in Sweden and the most famous are Ramsund carvings (about 1000) and Gök Runestone (11th century).
As a knight himself Siegfried is described as capable of magic. Legend has it that his skin has not penetrated both human and animal weapons. It was because he had drunk the blood of a dragon named Fafnir, whom he had previously conquered and killed. The magical dragon's blood makes Siegfried immune. complementing the already great physical abilities.
As Siegfried, he is one of the heroes in Nibelungenlied Germany, and operas Richard Wagner Siegfried and Götterdämmerung. As Sivard Snarensven, he is the hero of some medieval Scandinavian ballads.
The name Sigurðr is not the same name as Siegfried Germany. Siegen's old Siegen form is definitely Sigfroðr. Sivard is a variant of Sigurðr. This name forms all the first elements of Sig, which means victory (as did the German Sieg and the Dutch).
In Völsunga Saga, Sigurd is the son of Sigmund from his second wife, Hiordis. Sigmund dies in battle as he attacks Odin (in disguise), and Odin destroys Sigmund's sword. Towards his death, Sigmund informs Hiordis (of being pregnant) and bequeathed his sword fragment to his unborn child.
Sigurd was raised by a blacksmith named Regin, who made him a special sword from pieces of his father's sword (Sigurd's father). Sigurd used the sword to kill the Dragon Fafnir and therefore he got a treasure trove of gold. When Sigurd roasted and ate the heart of the Fafnir dragon, he miraculously understood the language of the birds around him.
The birds warned him that Regin would betray him. So Sigurd cut off the head of the blacksmith and took his fortune. There he found a ring and put it on his finger. He did not realize that the ring he was wearing caused a curse. A curse that brings havoc on every wearer.
After killing the Fafnir Dragon, Sigurd finds a castle, a place where He awakens a beautiful girl warrior. Where the girl has slept in a long sleep. Namely Brynhildr (Fyi, this Brynhildr punished god Odin for rebelling).
Then, Sigurd gave his ring (the curse ring) to Brynhildr and Promised would return to marry her. But during his journey, Sigurd was given a magical drink that made him forget Brynhildr, dumped his love and married Gudrun's daughter instead.
Gudrun's brother, Gunther tries to win Brynhildr for himself, but Gunther is unable to get past the fire walls surrounding Brynhildr castle. Sigurd, who had completely forgotten Brynhildr, pretended to form himself as Gunther to replace him and seduce Brynhildr.
Believing that Sigurd had left him, Brynhildr finally agreed to marry Gunther, the man she never loved. When Brynhildr discovers the fact that he has been deceived, he is very angry at Sigurd and cause her a heartbroken for losing her love. Brynhildr then kills him (Sigurd), then kills herself.
some assume that Brynhildr's tragic story happened because Brynhildr made the same curse ring Sigurd (Siegfried). So did Sigurd's misfortune make a curse ring that ended in his ironic death.
