Fenrir in Lore
In Norse mythology Fenrir (also known as Fenris), is a monstrous wolf and son of the trickster god Loki. During Ragnarok it is foreseen by Odin that Fenrir will kill him, and that Fenrir himself will be slain by the god of vengeance Vidar. Because of these prophesies the Norse gods bound Fenrir in hopes of negating their downfall.
