Fenrir
Fenrir is a monstrous wolf of Norse mythology. He is the son of the demonic god Loki and a giantess, Angerboda, which makes him the brother of the serpent Jormungand and the underworld goddess Hel. Fenrir is incredibly fast and agile, able to move quickly and easily through even the most difficult terrain.
The Aesir gods raised Fenrir in order to try and keep him under their control and stop him wreaking havoc in the Nine Worlds. He grow so fast and eventually the Aesir gods were scared of Fenrir’s strength and they realised that he would only bring evil to everyone and everything he touched if they did not chain him up, so they tried to chain him to a rock, by trying to trick Fenrir that they wanted to play a game with him.
Their first two attempts to chain Fenrir to the rock were unsuccessful; while the cunning gods convinced Fenrir that it was only a game both times and they wanted to test his strength, he broke through easily as the chains were too weak.
For their third attempt, the Aesir gods asked the dwarves to forge the strongest chain they had ever built, but it gave the appearance of being very light and soft to the touch. When the gods presented Fenrir with the third chain, he became suspicious, and he refused to be bound with it, unless one of the gods would stick his or her hand in his mouth as a pledge of good faith. Only the god Tyr was brave enough to do this, knowing that it would mean the loss of his hand. When Fenrir found himself unable to break free of his bonds, he ripped Tyr’s hand off. The chain was then tied to a boulder and a sword was placed in Fenrir’s jaws to hold them open. As he howled wildly and ceaselessly, and from his drool he form a river called Expectation.
Fenrir was then forced to lie bound to the boulder until Ragnarök, which is the end of the world or Doomsday. At this time, Fenrir broke free of his chain and run through the world with his lower jaw on the ground and his upper jaw in the sky devouring everything. Then he start killing all the gods. He then devour the sun before fighting the chief god Odin and swallow him. To avenge Odin’s death his son Vidar stabbed Fenrir’s heart and tear his jaw out.
When it comes to Norse poems, Fenrir will swallow the sun during Ragnarök, a feat which is elsewhere reserved for another wolf named Skoll. Another Old Norse poem repeatedly mentions a wolf named Garm who will break free from chains at Ragnarök; this is quite possibly Fenrir going under a different name. In another source, the wolf who will consume the moon called by the name of “Moon-garm” (Mánagarmr). Thus, the moon-eating wolf, who is elsewhere called Hati (“Hatred”) could be another extension of Fenrir – or at least of Garm, if Garm is not himself an extension of Fenrir.
