Thor: The Thunderer, Defender of Worlds

Thor, the mighty thunderer, is one of the most iconic gods in Norse mythology. Wielding his hammer Mjölnir and riding across the storm-tossed sky in a chariot drawn by goats, Thor embodies raw strength, protection, and defiance in the face of chaos. Beloved by farmers and feared by giants, he is the defender of both gods and humans, a force of thunder who blesses, hallows, and protects. This post explores Thor’s role as warrior, hall-companion, giant-slayer, and doomed hero, whose story still thunders across time.
