From my limited understanding of Norse mythology, there is no origin story for Odin. He was just "there" with his two brothers to kill a frost giant before creating the world using his blood, bones, and flesh. It is a very 'warrior-oriented' religion and that's reflected in some of the actions and beliefs of contemporary Neopagans, notably Varg Vikernes and others involved in the early 90's Nordic black metal scene.
The underlying philosophy is that the weak must make way for the strong. The theology doesn't concern itself with the origin of being.
