| Depowered exile | 76–97 | Odin banishes Thor to Midgard after Thor’s reckless actions endangered Asgard and nearly started a war. Without his divine power or Mjolnir, he is vulnerable to ordinary attackers and cannot lift the hammer. 76 78 97 |

Background / History
Thor is Odin’s son, the prince of Asgard, and its God of Thunder. He was raised as a warrior and is expected to inherit both the power and responsibility of Asgard’s god-kings. Odin later identifies him as the worthy successor to the accumulated divine legacy known as the Odinforce. 68 313 582
Before arriving on Earth, Thor led an unauthorized attack on Jotunheim with his companions. He later admits that his arrogance, recklessness, and impulsiveness endangered his kingdom, put Loki at risk, and nearly plunged Asgard into war. Odin punished him by exiling him to Midgard and taking away his weapon and divine power. 67 76
Appearance
Thor is a handsome, broad-built Asgardian warrior whose appearance changes with his circumstances, from ordinary Midgard clothing during exile to full Asgardian battle regalia. 75 93 220
- Often wears armor, a red cape, and carries Mjolnir in battle. 220
- Appears in Odin’s golden armor during the campaign against Jormungandr. 302
- On Sakaar, enters the arena in black armor with shortened hair. 686
Personality
Thor is direct, proud, and battle-driven. His preferred solution is usually to confront danger personally with Mjolnir in hand; even his tactical reasoning is described as straightforward—if one hammer strike fails, use another. 94 326
His early arrogance gives way to humility during exile. Unable to lift Mjolnir, he becomes depressed and questions what he lacks as a future king, but he continues to fight even when exhausted, injured, or facing an enemy he believes may be impossible to defeat. 76 78 85 305 445
Thor is deeply attached to his family and comrades. He initially struggles to accept that Loki deceived him, remains concerned for Odin during the Serpent crisis, and is overjoyed to fight beside his father again in later battles. 77 285 718
- Frequently announces his full title when introducing himself or challenging an opponent. 299
- Has limited knowledge of Asgardian technology and magic despite being a prince. 94 301
- Values personal battles and understands the desire to settle a fight without interference. 330
