The Norse god Fenrir, also known as the Fenris Wolf, was more of a monster than a god, although he was thought to be the eldest son of the god Loki. The position of Fenrir was as an opponent of the gods. Fenrir was expected to fight on the side of the Frost Giants when the time came for the Norse apocalypse. Of all the agents of destruction faced by the Norse gods, Fenrir was thought to be the most terrible.
