History: (Norse-German myth)- The Fenris Wolf is the offspring of Loki and Angerboda, and was born with the appearance of a wolf.

(Journey into Mystery I#114/2)- The Fenris Wolf attempted to steal the golden apples of Idunn away from her, but was driven off by Haakun the Hunter (see comments) and banished to Varinheim.

(Norse-German myth)- As the Fenris Wolf grew older, the Asgardians determined that it would not be safe to allow it to roam free in Asgard, and began playing a game with it to see how easily it could snap the bonds of a rope they placed on it, but the wolf broke each rope. Finally, Odin had the dwarves forged and enchanted fetter from gleipnir. When the gods came to place it around him, the wolf suspected a trick, and said that it would only allow them to place the fetter around its neck if one of the gods placed his hand in his mouth as a gesture of trust. If the fetter proved unbreakable, he would bite the god's arm off. Tyr agreed to this, and when he found the fetter was unbreakable, he bit off Tyr's right hand. The Asgardians then bound Fenris to the rock Gioll at the gates of Hel.
