Description

Thrúd is the daughter of Thor and Sif, younger half-sister of Magni, and younger sister of Modi. After her father's death in Ragnarök, she inherits his hammer Mjölnir and his mantle titles as the Goddess of Thunder for herself. ## Personality Gender: Female Age: 16 Appearance: Thrúd is best described as a Goddess of brawny build and tall stature for her age, notably standing taller than other characters her age like Atreus and Skjöldr, likely due to the genetics of her half-Giant father, Thor. She has pale skin, blue eyes, freckles and shoulder-length ginger hair, with a more vibrant streak of red in a tuft across the right side of her head. The back of her hair is joined in an elaborate lattice braid, held together with burnished, bronze hair cuffs and hemp-rope strings. Upon her face are various visible scars, which streak across her skin akin to slash wounds. These scars are more prominent on the left side of her face, with only a few being seen on her right forehead. Elegant Urnes-styled tattoos can be found inked across Thrúd's arms, shoulders and hands in a vibrant blue, ending just before reaching her shoulder-blades yet finding subtle continuity in the design along her golden breastplate. As evidenced in Lúnda's Workshop Notes, traditional Aesir design elements are incorporated alongside Elven motif on her breastplate, suggesting Thrúd herself had a hand in the build of her attire and found inspiration in foreign patterns. Most visible regarding her outfit is the shaggy brown pelt Thrúd wears along her waist, hanging over the majority of her attire and creating a window down the center where her dark brown trousers are hardly visible underneath her brown fur-covered boots. Golden, decorative tasset plates and rings hang at both ends of her fur pelt to compliment her breastplate, while various soapstone medallions hang from the center of the chestnut-brown tasset guards at her waist and hips. This leather piece also aids in carrying Thrúd's weapons, which both hang from a embellished leather strap and dual-sheath from behind her. The fur lining Thrúd's boots is fastened with rope, while multiple small cuts of brown hemp-rope can be seen acting as accessories along her forearms. Thrúd carries around two personal weapons of choice to match the versatility of the Valkyries, having in possession an ornate machete and mace—both serving as indirect nods to her brothers Magni and Modi. The machete is the more decorated of the two, the silver blade adorned with golden firegilded knotwork while the pommel and guard are enriched with similar swirl-patterns on shiny steel. The handle itself is a light tan wood. Thrúd's mace isn't as elaborate as the former weapon, made up of a sturdy silver steel affixed to light brown wood, its handle wrapped in green fabric. Swirl-pattern knotwork is still present in this weapon as well, though it isn't as prominent as the machete. Personality: Thrúd is introduced as a strong-willed, headstrong, determined young girl. As shown with her interactions with Atreus, she is generally kind and friendly towards others and will do her best to respect them. She was also shown interacting cordially with Skjöldr, showing she doesn't hold any prejudice against Midgardians or other species, unlike several of her fellow Aesir. Thrúd especially holds the Valkyries in high esteem, with joining their ranks being her dream. She cares deeply about her parents. However, she would often get into arguments with Sif since she did not want to see Thrud get killed the same way that Magni and Modi did, thus objecting her desire to become a warrior and Valkyrie. It's heavily implied that Thrúd did not have a good relationship with her brothers, possibly being bullied by Modi when they were younger, and while she appeared to be saddened by their loss, she claimed that they were better off without them. Most notably, she loves her father Thor a great deal and seeing him becoming drunk again not only embarrasses her but also leaves her saddened that he had broken his promise to stop drinking. Thrúd nonetheless supports and loves her father deeply and it is ultimately for her sake that finally convinces Thor to be better and stand up to Odin. Thrúd's relationship with her other family members are vague at best but she mentioned that she hardly knew her uncle Baldur since he was rarely home. She did not have a good relationship with Heimdall unsurprisingly, due to the Watchman's arrogance and condescending nature, attacking him when he cruelly mocked her father and of her goal of becoming a Valkyrie. As a result, she wasn't particularly upset upon hearing of Heimdall's death. Similar to many of the other Aesir, unfortunately, Thrúd was fanatically supportive of her grandfather, believing him to be a wise, caring ruler. As a result, she would refuse to believe Atreus when he told her about all of the crimes Odin had committed. Then, when Ragnarök arrives and Thrúd confronts Atreus again, she raises her sword at him and nearly kills him. When Atreus reveals that Odin purposefully placed the Midgardians on the front lines to slow down the enemy, Thrúd still refuses to believe him. It's only after Sif arrives that she's convinced to help Atreus stop Odin. As Thor is killed before her eyes, Thrúd clearly sees through Odin's lies and charges toward her grandfather, finally going against Odin and seeing him for the monster he really was. Hobby: Additional Information: As the daughter of Thor and Sif, Thrúd is a powerful Aesir Goddess. Immortality: As a Goddess, Thrúd is immortal. Once she reaches adulthood, she will stop aging, she can't get sick, and she can only be killed by stronger Gods or magic weapons. Superhuman Strength: As the youngest of Thor and Sif's children, Thrúd was capable of taking on the Einherjar during the fight in Black Thunder. She was even able to lift her inebriated father, albeit not without Atreus' aid or significant difficulty. Superhuman Durability: Thrud was able to withstand a Mjölnir throw from Odin with little injuries to show, albeit he implied that he had no intentions to kill her. Electrokinesis: Like her father and brothers, Thrúd has the power to generate and manipulate electricity. She can imbue her weapons with electrical energy and deliver powerful electrical blows. Flight: After claiming Mjölnir, Thrud gained the ability to fly using electricity. Abilities Expert Combatant: Thrúd is a born warrior, she is so skilled that even Kratos was impressed with her battle skills. Expert Swordswoman: She is quite skilled in the use of her two swords.
