“Known to be Thór's lover, this Jötunn is also one of the Nine Mother of Heimdallr. Forever bearing the dagger that is her namesake, Járnsaxa moves with the grace of the wind. And where the wind goes, thunder follows. As this giantess closes in on her objective, she becomes a living tempest harnessing the storm itself through the power of her magical totems.

Lore[ | ]
A scorned lover of Thor, and mother to his child, Magni. Thor stole their son and raised him among the Gods in Asgarð. She is a skilled warrior and seeks revenge against the Gods who allowed her child to be taken and kept from her for so many years. If you spot her in Miðgarð, keep a close eye; she moves quick as lightning, and strikes just as sharply too. She has the ability to shape shift into a storm. The giant's elemental weakness is the Dark.
Her name means something like "Iron Dagger" in Old Norse [1] and she is mentioned in the "Hyndluljóð" and the "Skáldskaparmál".
