Biography
Thor was born in Asgard as the son of king and Allfather Odin in an unspecified date. He was raised alongside his adopted brother Loki and half-brothers Hermod and Balder.

In the Asgardian equivalent of his teenage years, Thor was entrusted with the magical hammer Mjolnir and undergone many trials to become worthy to wield it. Odin sent Thor to Midgard (Earth) to learn among the mortal Viking warriors about how to battle. Thor was here joined by his other learning close friends Sif, Loki and Heimdall. Here he earned the title of "God of Thunder".

As he became a more glorious warrior, he became the mentor anf friend of the Warriors Three; Fandral, Hogun and Volstagg. Even as the gods were forgotten as myths and legends, Thor remained the most famous warrior in Asgard. However, his stubborn behaviour and rivalry with Loki earned him banishment to Earth. During his banishment, he joined the Avengers.

Powers/abilities
As do all the inhabitants of Asgard, Thor has natural godlike strength, sharp eyesight, the ability to withstand radiation and fire and agility.

His hammer Mjolnir is able to manipulate the weather and generate electricity that can be used as a weapon. When Thor swings the hammer, it generates energy that can shatter earth and cause extensive harm to attacking foes. When Thor reaches it into the sky, it can attract lightning. When Thor throws the hammer and hold onto the handle, it gives him the ability to fly through the sky and even in space.

Mjolnir was bestowed with an enchantment by Odin which only allows those the hammer deems worthy to lift it.
