Legendary Beasts of the Nine Realms
The Norse cosmos teems with legendary creatures - from the monstrous children of Loki destined to bring about Ragnarok, to divine steeds and guardian beasts.
Children of Loki - The Doom Bringers
Fenrir
The Great Wolf
The monstrous wolf, son of Loki and the giantess Angrboda. Fenrir grew so large and fearsome that the gods bound him with the magical chain Gleipnir, but he will break free at Ragnarok and devour Odin himself.
Jormungandr
The World Serpent
The Midgard Serpent, another child of Loki. Odin threw Jormungandr into the ocean where the serpent grew so large it encircles the entire world and grasps its own tail.
Guardian Beasts & Other Creatures
Garmr
The Hellhound
The monstrous hound that guards the gates of Helheim. Bound in the cave Gnipahellir, Garmr will break free at Ragnarok. His howl signals the beginning of the final battle.
Svadilfari
The Master Builder's Stallion
The powerful stallion belonging to the giant who built Asgard's walls. Loki transformed into a mare to lure Svadilfari away, preventing the giant from completing his work. From their union, Sleipnir was born.
Legacy: Father of Sleipnir
Nidhogg
The Corpse-Eating Dragon
The dragon that gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil from beneath. Nidhogg eternally feeds on corpses in Niflheim and exchanges insults with the eagle atop the World Tree through the squirrel Ratatosk.
