What is baugi?

Baugi is a figure from Norse mythology. He is the brother of Suttung and uncle to Gunnlod. According to the myth, Baugi owned a farm where Odin, disguised as Bolverk, worked as a laborer. Odin was attempting to obtain the mead of poetry, which was guarded by Baugi's brother Suttung. Baugi promised to help Odin obtain the mead if he could perform the work of nine men in a single summer. Odin accomplished this by using his magical powers, but when he asked Baugi for his reward, Baugi turned on him and Odin had to use trickery to obtain the mead.
