Fenrir, Devourer of the Sun

The myth

Fenrir is the giant wolf, son of Loki and the giantess Angrboða. The gods raised him among themselves, but only Týr dared to feed him. He broke the chains Læðingr and Drómi, until the dwarves forged Gleipnir, as fine as a silken ribbon. Suspicious, Fenrir agreed to be bound only if a god placed a hand in his mouth; Týr did, and lost it. Bound until Ragnarök, the wolf then breaks free and swallows Odin, and is slain by Víðarr. In the poem Vafþrúðnismál it is Fenrir who overtakes the sun at the end of time.

Why it has this power

A level 10 Legendary with ATK 3500, one of the fjord's highest attacks, and DEF 2800: hunger outweighs guard. The Darkness element belongs to the wolf who puts out the sun. Moon and Bull speak of night howls and raw strength. It is an ancient rhyme: Loki fused with Garmr, the hound of Hel's gate, brings forth his most feared son.

Did you know

Snorri says Gleipnir was made from six things that no longer exist because of it, such as the sound of a cat's footfall and a woman's beard.
