Name: Thor Odinson
Age: N/A- Thor is a god.
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Side: Good
Affiliation: Independent Hero (at the moment)
Description:
Personality:
Thor is a typical god with an atypical view of mankind- while Thor is as confident in his abilities as any other god, he has a favorful view of mankind, and finds himself fighting at the side of humans as often as at the side of his own people, the Asgardians.
After Thor's rise to be known as the greatest warrior of Asgard, his gloating and over-confidence led to his father, Odin, assigning a human persona to him. His experiences on earth led to Thor's now-humble sense of duty and care for the earth, as well as for Asgard.
In short, Thor is a superhero that anyone would appreciate standing beside them to fight against their greatest enemies. His abilities to inspire those around him have often been shown on the battlefield.
Powers/Abilities: (wiki)
Like all Asgardians, Thor is not truly immortal but relies upon periodic consumption of the Golden Apples of Idunn to sustain his lifespan, which to date has lasted many millennia. Being the son of Odin and the elder goddess Gaea, the character is physically the strongest of the Norse gods, and has performed such feats as almost lifting the entire World Serpent (stated to encircle the Earth), and hurling the Odinsword, an enormous mystical blade of incalculable weight, through a Celestial. If pressed in battle, Thor is also capable of entering into a state known as the "Warrior's Madness" ("berserksgangr" in Norse), which will temporarily increase his strength tenfold. The character also possesses high resistance to physical injury such as rocket fire and falls from orbital heights; and superhuman speed, agility and reflexes. As the Norse god of Thunder, Thor can summon the elements of the storm (lightning; rain; wind; snow) and uses Mjolnir as a tool to focus this ability. As the son of the Earth goddess Gaea, Thor has shown some control over the Earth. Using Mjolnir he can fly at supersonic speeds in Earth's atmosphere, and fly faster than light in space.
The character is a superb hand-to-hand combatant, and also skilled in armed combat, excelling in the use of the war hammer, sword and mace. Once he was able to best Captain America in combat, despite not having his other powers. Thor possesses two items which assist him in combat: the enchanted Belt of Strength, and his mystical hammer Mjolnir. The first item doubles Thor's strength and endurance while the second is used to control his weather abilities; flight; energy projection and absorption; dimensional apertures; matter manipulation and the most powerful of his offensives, the God Blast and the Anti-Force. Thor also uses a chariot drawn by two huge mystical goats called Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder.
History: (comicvine)
The son of Odin and Gaea, the oldest goddess of the Earth, Thor was raised in Asgard. From then on, the goddess Frigga served as Thor's mother. Thor grew up with his step-brother Loki. Loki was always jealous of the favored Thor. Odin had Mjolnir, a mystical hammer enchanted by magic and made of Uru, created for Thor when he became a worthy warrior. Mjolnir was enchanted by Odin to see that only those who are worthy to lift it may lift it.
After years of training and accepting different quests to prove he was worthy to have the hammer, Thor still could not lift Mjolnir. Once his young friend Sif was kidnapped and Odin took some warriors with him to rescue her. Odin told Thor to remain in Asgard, but the young man could not stay in Asgard while his friend was in trouble. Thor went into the treasure room of Odin where the hammer was. Thor tried to lift the mighty hammer one more time and this time he was successful. After successfully lifting the hammer Thor became Asgard's greatest warrior. Thor spent several centuries fighting in battles, facing many adventures and doing countless heroic deeds. Thor's very first love was the goddess, Sif. Their relationship would eventually end, although they have renewed it in recent years. Thor journeyed to the Earth for the first time and promoted his worship among the Vikings. They called him Donner (Thunder) as they came to worship Thor along with the other Asgardians. Thor encouraged the Vikings to find victory and glory in their battles. Thor's followers killed the people of a Christian monastery and Thor eventually found out. Thor stopped all of his activity on Earth because of this and the worship of the Asgardian gods eventually died out.
Thor led a warriors life in Asgard as he fought Frost Giants and other enemies of the realm. Thor eventually became arrogant and selfish. As an act of humility, Odin decided to create a human persona for Thor, Dr. Donald Blake, and removed all his powers and memories. As Blake, Thor was able to learn to be humble and to take care of the people around him. Blake later on became a successful physician and was later known to be a great surgeon. Blake eventually discovered what appeared to be an ordinary walking stick during an alien invasion. When Blake struck a boulder with the stick, it was transformed into Mjolnir and he became Thor once again. At first Thor had no memory about his Asgardian life. He would regain more and more knowledge of his past as months passed. Odin then later on revealed to him that Donald Blake was just his false identity and he told him what his reason was for doing it.
