How is Thor's natural affinity for earth revealed by his character?

Answer 1

Besides being the son of Earth (Forgynsson), Thor is an "earthy" character, concerned with simple pleasures such as eating and drinking and showing off his strength. He is the god of Karls, the laboring class of Northern society. Contrast this with Odin, the god of Jarls or nobles, who is more subtle and concerned with the materials and trappings of wealth (though quite abstemious in his diet).

Answer 2

Thor's natural affinity for Earth is revealed through his compassion for its people and his willingness to protect them. He often chooses to align himself with humans and defend the planet from threats, even when it puts him at odds with his own people. This shows a deep connection and sense of duty towards Earth.
