Thor Odinson

Appearance: In Ragnarök, Thor is depicted as overweight, with a bulging belly (which Mimir correctly described Thor as the "fat dobber") and unkempt red hair. This reflects his behavior in Norse lore as a heavy drinker and big eater. He also revealed to be roughly taller a head than Kratos. During his first fight with Kratos, Thor gains a scar on his stomach after being slashed by Kratos' axe.

Personality:According to many, Thor is known for his violent, destructive, barbaric nature. He was noted to be a pure sadist that took pleasure in killing his enemies, demonstrating no signs of mercy. This reputation of his made him be feared by many and is considered to be the worst amongst Aesir gods. At the same time, his recklessness was known to make a fool of himself, leading him make careless and silly mistakes, as well as be insulted by many.

The reality behind this behavior however is due to Odin's emotional abuse and manipulation he has inflicted upon Thor, as Thor ultimately seeks for his father's love and approval. The amount of atrocities that Thor has committed has made him see how cruel and unforgiving Odin truly is, but because of his blind obedience to him, he cannot help but feel that it is too late for him to change his ways. As a result, Thor has lived his whole life feeling great remorse over his actions, causing him to fall into depression.

In battle, he is savage and will relentlessly attack his opponent, as he seen when he unleashed his fury on Kratos and kept reminding the Ghost of Sparta that he was a destroyer just like Thor. When he put the Spartan in a near-death state, he proceeded to revive him with his hammer to continue the fight as he would have been unsatisfied with such a win. He also demanded Kratos lived up his reputation as the Ghost of Sparta and God of War before insulting the latter's son, which caused him to a suffer a beating from him in response. He came to respect Kratos for letting his old self emerge and told him the debt was finished.

Beyond his savagery, Thor deep down has genuine love for his family. He is shown to be both protective of his wife, Sif and their daughter, Thrúd. Thor initially appeared to have favored Magni as when he was killed by Kratos, Thor was extremely furious and saddened by death, expressing his rage by beating up his younger son, Modi, for cowardly leaving his elder brother to die at the hands of the Ghost of Sparta. However, Thor later claims that he sought out to avenge Modi as well, stating that while he had problems, he was still his son in the end. He has a good relationship with his brother, Baldur and always trusted him, despite of Baldur's disapproval of Thor's bloodlust.

Thor had a habit of drinking a lot and would often be drunk as a result. His alcoholism is due to his self-loathing nature, having lived under the depression and guilt of committing barbaric acts under Odin's will, as well as coping with the losses of his sons.
