Fafnir was an infamous Norse Dragon written about in Fafnismal, a poem in the Poetic Edda. Fafnir was the son of the Dwarf King Hreidmar who was cursed by another dwarf named Andvari who turned Fafnir into a dragon. Fafnir's invincibility was attributed to his use of the Helm of Awe which paralyzed his prey before striking but was ultimately slayed by Sigurd.

The Helm of Awe
I wore before the sons of men
In defense of my treasure;
Amongst all, I alone was strong,
I thought to myself,
For I found no power a match for my own.

Valknut is Old Norse and means slain warrior knot. It has three interlocking triangles and is found on several runes stones and other ancient Viking artifacts.
