Tyr, the Norse God of War and justice, is often associated with the binding of the monstrous wolf Fenrir. According to mythology, to gain the trust of Fenrir, the gods bound him with a magical chain, but Fenrir demanded that one of the gods place a hand in his mouth as a pledge of good faith. Tyr volunteered and, when Fenrir realized he had been tricked and could not break free, he bit off Tyr's hand, leading to Tyr's eventual loss of the hand in the process. This act symbolizes Tyr's bravery and sacrifice for the greater good.
