Rán
In Norse mythology, Rán (Old Norse perhaps "robber"〔Simek (2007:260).〕) is a goddess associated with the sea. According to Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda book ''Skáldskaparmál'', in his retelling of the ''Poetic Edda'' poem ''Lokasenna'', she is married to Ægir and they have nine daughters together. Snorri also reports that she had a net in which she tried to capture men who ventured out on the sea:
Ran is the name of Ægir's wife, and their daughters are nine, even as we have written before. At this feast all things were self-served, both food and ale, and all implements needful to the feast. Then the Æsir became aware that Rán had that net wherein she was wont to catch all men who go upon the sea.〔(Section XXXIII of ''Skáldskaparmál'' ) in translation by Arthur G. Brodeur (1916, 1923)〕
Her net is also mentioned in ''Reginsmál'' and in the ''Völsunga saga'', where she lends it to Loki so that he can capture Andvari.
