Tyr

Tyr is the eldest son of Odin and Frigga and is one of the elder gods of Asgard in that regard.  He is a powerfully built man, often clothed in Bearskins, and a fierce warrior, but also a very capable commander.  Wise and patient, he is a God embodying Strategy, Will and Sacrifice.    One of his arms is missing and the tale embodies Tyr; The Fenris Wolf, monstrous offspring of Loki and a Giant, was too terrible even for the gods to overcome.  Unable to slay it they conspired to imprison it; they convinced it to play a game in which they would try and bind it.  It knew no normal chain could hold it and easily burst the first two they tried.  Yet the third looked odd, and indeed it had been forged by the Dwarves to be nigh unbreakable.  The wolf was suspicious though, and so Tyr offered to put his arm in the creature's mouth as a sign of trust.  The chain was fastened and the beast could not escape and bit off Tyr's arm,
