In Norse mythology, Dvalin was a ruler of the dwarves and one of the most powerful dwarves, known primarily for having invented runes.
He also made Sif's golden wig, Gungnir (Odin's spear), Skidbladnir (a ship), Tyrfing, the magic sword and, with Alfrik, Berling and Grer, Freya's incredible Brising necklace, Brísingamen (Freya paid the four craftsmen with four nights in her bed).
Dvalin was also the name of one of the four stags who fed on the tree Yggdrasil.
Freya was thought to be the most desirable of all goddesses.
When she desired to acquire the famous necklace Brisingamen (Brísingamen) from four dwarfs, (Dvalin, Alfrik, Berling, and Grer), they desired a night each with her, a demand which she eventually acceded to.
Later on, Odin made Loki steal the necklace for him, and demanded the same price of Freya as the dwarves had, though he eventually relented.
