Monsters · Norse world
Fenrir
The monstrous wolf bound by the gods until Ragnarök.
Legend File
Fenrir is terrifying because everyone knows the chain will not hold forever. The gods bind him after prophecy warns of his role in Ragnarök, but the act of binding also deepens the doom. His story has the shape of a sealed disaster: contained for now, growing in meaning every time someone says his name.
Source Framing
Norse and broader Germanic mythology, preserved especially in Eddic sources.
