Thor is the most popular god among the Scandinavians. He is the thunder powerhouse. He has been portrayed as unrelentingly pursuing his foes, his mountain-crushing, thunderous hammer Mjolnir in his hand. In the mythology, Thor lays waste to numerous Jotnar (demons) who are foes to the gods or humanity, and is married to the beautiful, golden-haired goddess Sif.

Once Loki cut her golden hair. The god Thor wades through a river while the Aesir ride across the bridge Bifrost.

Thor rides the chariot drawn by two  gigantic, long-haired goats - Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjoster.

Thor's Hammer
Mjolnir is a hammer of Thor made by two dwarves, is one of the most fearsome weapons of Thor, capable of leveling mountains. It is the focal point of some of Thor's adventures. Thor's hammer can hit any target. After the target is hit, the hammer will return to Thor's right hand all by itself. The hammer can send out lightning bolts."

His hammer weighs as much as a herd of 300-billion elephants' which means only someone really strong could lift it. Of course, it also means it would be changing Earth's gravitational field..." That is why a belt called Megingjord, and iron gloves called Jaarngreiper, were used to lift it.

Loki Helps Thor
This is clearly illustrated in a poem found in the Poetic Edda titled "Prymskvida". The myth relates that the giant, Prymer, steals Mjolnir from Thor and then demands the goddess Freyja in exchange. Loki, the god notorious for his duplicity, conspires with the other Aesir gods to recover Mjolnir by disguising Thor as Freyja and presenting him as the "goddess" to Prymer.

At a banquet Prymr holds in honor of the impending union, Prymr takes the bait. Unable to contain his passion for his new maiden with long, blond locks (and broad shoulders), as Prymer approaches the bride by placing Mjolnir on "her" lap, Thor rips off his disguise and destroys Prymr and his giant cohorts.
