Tyr is a minor character in the 2013 film Thor: The Dark World. He became Commander of the Asgardian army, the Einherjar. During the Sacking of Asgard by the Dark Elves, he was placed in charge of guarding Jane Foster. After Sif broke Foster out, Tyr reported this fact to Odin.
Powers and Abilities[]
Asgardian Physiology: As an Asgardian, Tyr possesses several superhuman abilities.
- Superhuman Strength: Like all Asgardians, Tyr is superhumanly strong.
- Superhuman Durability: Tyr's body is much more resistant to physical harm than that of a human being.
- Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite his durability, Tyr can be injured. However, his metabolism allows him to rapidly regenerate damaged bodily tissue with greater speed and efficiency than a human being is capable of.
- Longevity: Like all Asgardians, Tyr ages at a rate much slower than that of a human being.
Trivia[]
- Unlike the comics, Tyr is not related to Thor. He was Thor's paternal half-brother, the son of Odin with Thor's adoptive mother, Frigga.
