Changes: Mjöllnir

Latest revision as of 11:46, 18 May 2023

Mjöllnir is Thor's powerful hammer.

Characteristics

This two-handed hammer endows Thor the power over lightning in addition of improving his pre-existing one and enabling him to harm and even slay Gods. Whenever he throws it, Mjollnir can be summoned back to his grip.

History

Hercules had a precognitive dream of Balder which prompted him to set out to the Northern lands. There, he intervened the locals' sacrifice, an act that drew the attention of Thor who perceived it as a blasphemy. Before Hercules could explain, however, Thor sent him flying through the roof of the house and into the canopy of pines with a lightning shockwave. Hercules's ability to survive such attack surprised Thor that he wondered whether Hercules being one of the frozen seeds of the ice giants, whereas Balder who showed up in time to break up their fight argued him being another deity. It is then Hercules explained his nature as one of Greecian demigods and that he is the greatest among them as cemented by his ability to survive Thor's shockwave.

Trivia

In a direct contradiction to mythology, Mjöllnir is shown with a long handle, enabling Thor to wield it two-handed. Norse mythology explicitly states that Mjöllnir's handle is shorter than it should be for a hammer of its size due to minor interference from Loki during its forging.
- That said, Mjöllnir in mythology was meant to be two-handed during its construction as per in the show, though the handle ended up shortened in courtesy of sabotage by Loki.
- While both version of the weapon being designed after smithing hammer with trapezoid-shaped head albeit with more intricate design, the show has the hammer has two adjacent angles on one side rather than symmetrical.
