The Asgardians had grown weary of living in dread of the monster and, so proposed to play a little game with him. The first was a run-in with the menacing Fenris, a shapeshifter that often took the form of a giant wolf. However, two events saw his trajectory change forever.
A worthy crown prince, he gained fame for his bravery and leadership in battle. Tyr grew up quickly as he followed in his father’s footsteps. But this guy has one heck of a story.īorn on the eve of the war with the Angels of Heaven, Tyr was fortunate to not be abducted by the invaders, with his older sister, Aldriff, being taken away instead. That’s right, job security isn’t ironclad in Asgard. Tyr Odinson is the first son of Odin and Frigga, and former god of war. Tyr Odinsonīefore Thor arrived and (literally) stole the thunder, there was Tyr… It is this gift, combined with his speed, that makes him Odin’s favored messenger. Like the Olympian god, Hermod also has the gift of Allspeak, the ability to communicate with all tribes across the Nine Realms. His standout power is his super-speed, which puts him on par with the famed Hermes. Hermod is currently alive and is said to have standard Asgardian powers for the most part. During Cul’s return in the Fear Itself (Vol 1, issue 3), Hermod offers to help an imprisoned Thor escape to Midgard under their father’s nose, a plan that ultimately backfires on the brothers. Hermod also is extremely loyal to his father, Odin, but perhaps even more loyal to his brother Thor. He succeeds in getting back in time, which allows Odin to prevent Balder’s permanent death. When his brother Balder is killed by a mistletoe-tipped arrow, Hermod races to Hel to speak to Hela about a way to revive him. Hermod’s gifts make him the ultimate messenger, a role he often plays at his father’s behest. He has made 29 appearances in the Earth-616 reality. One of Queen Freyja “Frigga” Freyyrdottir and King Odin Borson’s three sons, Hermod is the dashing (no pun) prince of Asgard who first appeared in Thor (Vol 1, issue 275).
That’s right, we’re talking about the god of speed, Hermod Odinson. The average Asgardian can lift around 25 tons, so we can expect Vali, as an Odinson, to easily surpass that. We can safely assume that Vali boasts the standard powers of the Aesir, such as super-strength and stamina. He is presumed to be alive and living in Asgard. Not much is mentioned of Vali after these events, and he only appears in two issues, 293 and 294. Vali then lends himself to merging with the other surviving Aesir to reform Odin, who then goes on to recreate the Asgardians from figurines sourced from the Ragnarok rubble. He is most noted for managing to live through Ragnarok alongside his brother Vidar, and seven other Asgardian gods, thereby fulfilling part of Odin’s prophecies.
Unfortunately, the comics don’t detail much of Vali’s personality or even any particular strengths or aliases.
