Norse Mythology/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Vithar avenges Odin by jumping into Fenrir's mouth and ripping its jaws apart with his bare hands and a gigantic sandal.
  • Tyr sacrificing his hand to keep Fenrir from destroying the gods, offering to put it in his mouth as insurance that the others binding him with a magical ribbon isn't a trick. It is, and he loses the hand, but Fenrir is trapped until Ragnarok.
  • Fenrir killing Odin. Not because he killed the biggest, baddest god in Norse Mythology (although that certainly is awesome in its own right), but because after having been bound until the end of the world with a sword in his mouth because of a vague prophecy of his growth causing the gods problems, he finally breaks loose and as vengeance leads the charge against the gods and kills the greatest among them, proving why it was not a good idea to get on his bad side.
