Fenrir (Nordic: ᚠᛁᚾᚱᛁᛦ) is the elderly and sick wolf of Atreus and Kratos. After his death, Atreus unknowingly casts a spell that transfers his soul to his knife. During the fight with Garm, Atreus transfers his soul to the Hound of Helheim, changing its nature and resurrecting Fenrir, who aids them during the events of Ragnarök.
Norse Mythology
In Norse mythology, Fenrir is one of three children of Loki and the female Jötunn Angrboða, his other siblings being Hel and Jormungandr. All of them were born in Jotunheim. Once the Gods found out about their existence, they began to fear them as there were Prophesize that these three siblings would bring great misfortune upon the Gods due to nature of both of their parents, their father Loki in particular.
Subsequently, Odin commanded the other Gods to journey into Jotunheim and bring the three siblings to him. When they arrived in Asgard, Odin proceeded to throw Jormungandr into the ocean of Midgard and banish Hel to Helheim after giving her authority over the dead. Fenrir however was kept in Asgard, but inspired such fear in the Gods that only Týr was brave enough to approach the wolf and give him food. The Gods noticed that Fenrir was rapidly growing bigger with every passing day, which only made them more fearful of him due to the prophecy that the wolf would bring them great harm. Thus, they decided to try and imprison Fenrir.
The Gods then forged the fetter (chain) Leyding. Bringing the chain to the wolf, the Aesir suggested he test his strength with it. Judging that the chain was not beyond his strength, Fenrir let the Gods bind him with it. With the first kick, the binding snapped and the wolf freed himself.
The Gods then forged a second chain twice as strong as Leyding, which they named Dromi. Confident that this chain would imprison the wolf, they once again approached him. Claiming that he would achieve great fame for his strength should the wolf break of this binding, Fenrir once again allowed the Gods to place the fetter on him noting that the chain was indeed very strong and that he needed to take risks to earn great fame. Fenrir strained hard against the fetter, eventually breaking it into many pieces which flew off into the distance.
Fearing that they could not bind the Wolf-Giant, Odin commissioned some Dwarves to make an unbreakable binding that Fenrir could not escape from. The Dwarves then crafted a chain using six mystical ingredients; the footfall of a cat, the beard of a woman, the roots of a mountain, the sinews of a bear, the breath of a fish and the spittle of a bird. The resulting binding was as soft silk ribbon and was named Gleipnir. After it was delivered to the Aesir, they took Fenrir out onto an island called Lyngvi, which lay in the middle of a lake called Amsvartnir (pitch-black). There, the Gods presented Gleipnir to Fenrir, stating that despite the chain looking like a silk ribbon, even the Gods could not tear it and demonstrated this by pulling at the fetter with all of their might, but it did not break. However, the Jotunn became suspicious due to the deceptive appearance of the chain and refused to let himself be bound, stating that he believed the ribbon was made with art and trickery.
However, the Gods appealed to his ego, stating that Fenrir could easily break such a pitiful silken strip, as he had broken two great iron bonds made by the Gods themselves previously. They also added on, that if Fenrir was not able to break the silken binds, then it would be very clear to them that Fenrir was no threat to be feared at all and he would be set free immediately. Fenrir, still suspicious, responded that he would only allow himself to be bound if one of the Gods present put their hand in his mouth as a show of good faith. If he could break free of the chain, all would be well, but if he did not, the God would loose their hand.
Hearing this, the Gods looked amongst themselves, knowing that someone had to sacrifice their hand to the wolf if he was to be imprisoned forever, but none of them were willing to do so. Týr then silently stepped up and placed his right hand inside the wolfs jaws, after which Fenrir allowed the Aesir to bind him once again. As Fenrir kicked and thrashed to free himself, Gleipnir only grew stronger and tighter. Seeing that the wolf was finally imprisoned, all of the Gods laughed except Týr, who lost his right hand to an enraged Fenrir. The Gods then took singular cord called Gelgja (fetter), which hung from Gleipnir and fed it through the stone slab Gjöll (Resounding) and fastened it deep into the ground, after which they put another great rock Thviti (Batterer) on top of it to act as an anchoring peg. Further enraged, Fenrir attempted to bite the Gods, who then thrust a sword into his upper jaw, so he could not close his mouth.
