Thrymr's Theft

Þrymr, also known as Thrymr, and Thrym, was king of the Jötnar in Norse mythology.

Mythology

It was one said Þrymr stole Mjölnir from Thor to force the Æsir to hand over Freyja to become his wife. He was however killed by the combined forces of Thor, Loki, and Heimdall, who also killed his wife and any jötnar who were at the wedding.[1]

Biography

When Havi went to search for a gift for Gunnlöð, he traveled to Thrymr's house in Jötunheimr. In the house, partially lost at the bottom of an icy lake, Havi recovered a bridal circlet that Thor wore when he was posing as Freyja at her wedding with Þrymr.[2]

Legacy and influence

Þrymr had a totem named after him in the popular dice game Orlog. The piece "Thrymr's Theft" would reduce the effect of an opponent's invoked God Favor during a round. An Anglo-Saxon man in Glowecestre, Glowecestrescire possessed the piece, which he gave to Eivor Varinsdottir after being defeated.[3]

Behind the scenes

Þrymr is only mentioned in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla in the form of an Orlog piece and a past resident of Jötunheimr, and as such it is unconfirmed if he is also an Isu.
