Often mistaken for wearers of Armani, these were a mysterious sect of pagan priests that supposedly ran everything in the "barbarian" warrior tribes of ancient pre-Roman Germany. They also were the greatest rune-masters of all time. Unlike Armani, they were so manly they used bear grease as perfume.

Also refers to anyone acting elite and tough, using big fancy German words like he's in a secret society.
I see you follow the way of the Armanen... so recite the havamal to me.

Ok enough with your Armanen act, we all know you're just counting to 100 in German. We're not fooled.

Get the Armanen mug.
A totally BADASS set of Germanic runes, 18 in total, which are supposedly the original runes discovered/invented thousands of years ago by Odin himself! They were rediscovered by Austrian mystic and literary man Guido von List in the early 1900s. The Armanen Futharkh Has several layers of secret meanings, only used by HARDCORE Asatru, heathens, and occult magicians. Often wrongly confused for Heinrich Himmler's "Nazi runes" although they were published before Hitler and Himmler were old enough to buy a beer. They are NOT the same runes used by the dwarves in Tolkien books (those are based on the 33 Anglo-Saxon runes) although this is a common rumor.
"I just got a set of these Armanen Futharkh rune stones online, I OWNZ all you hippie new-agers."

"I'm not a racist, fuck you, these are Armanen Futharkh! Know what that means? Yeah, that's what I thought."

"wait you thought I was just a crazy LOTR nerd? Buddy, you need to get out more. I'm a practitioner of Armanen Futharkh, these runes are the real deal!"
