Thor, God of Thunder

Thunder is a red-bearded god driving goats across the sky on his way to break a giant's skull. Thor — strongest of gods and men, beloved of farmers while kings prayed to Odin — carries three treasures: the hammer Mjolnir that never misses and always returns, a belt that doubles his strength, and iron gloves to grip the hammer's shaft. When a giant builder nearly wins the sun, the moon, and Freyja on a rigged wager, it is Thor's hammer that settles the contract — and Loki's shape-shifting that produces, months later, Odin's eight-legged horse.
