Are we talking about Norse mythology? That is the belief system of the Scandinavian countries before Christianity swept the world. Most of the world is familiar with Greek and Roman mythology, but the Norse mythology is not so well known.
Some of the gods of Norse mythology are Odin, Frigg, Loki, and Thor.
Odin is the father god and is married to Freya. Most of the "lesser" gods of Norse mythology are their kids. He has a raven who spies for him.
Frigg is the goddess of married women and households. She's married to Odin.
Loki is the god of mischief. He is not considered to be especially evil, just gets into a lot of trouble because of his thievery.
Thor is the god of thunder. He has these hammers which make thunder when he uses them.
Most of Norse mythology has to do with their gods and what happens with the afterlife. Since the Vikings were essentially a conquering people, it was important to "know" what happened after you died. One interesting thing about the Norse system of theology is that their gods were not perfectly formed. They had scars and physical imperfections just like their followers did.
