[@colossalslayer3616]

Personal theory the Aesir we're god's of civilization and the Vanir we're gods of nature which would explain tyr's asociations with the more formal aspects of war

[@martinlubbe9104]

Not to be that guy but it's believed that Tyr is only a God of War because the Romans name for Tuesday was associated with Mars and the Germanics added it to his lore

The peace of war, opposed to the violent conflict

[@65firered]

You have the war gods and then you have THE War God.

[@Gortemtheeserf]

Out of all the Norse gods I’m strangely interested in tyr

[@Cyborg_Melvin]

At least this tyr doesn’t run from a fight or from his true nature

[@garrettjackson1451]

Tyr has a bad history with wolves

[@touremuhammad5983]

I really like how the God of War series twisted the whole Giant Wolf story. In God of War: Ragnarok, it was revealed that Týr had his arm bitten off by Garm, not Fenrir. Instead of Týr dying at Ragnarok via Garm, Týr grew his arm back using a workaround that involved the Egyptian underworld, the Duat, which is why you'll notice that Týr has Egyptian hieroglyphs on his left arm.

[@Im-Not-a-Dog]

Some of the more Southern cultures associated with the Norse(down in the more Germanic regions) also saw Tyr as a rival of Odin.

[@Kiba_a.z]

Yes, some scholars of Norse mythology are even suggesting that originally Tyr was main God of Norse myth, due to his name having the same root as that of Zeus and Jupiter. And only later on Odin gained importance and popularity and replaced Tyr.

[@gabriellavedier9650]

This is the buyer of the blade, be afraid! This is the great god Tyr! I also prefer stories where he is friends with Fenrir and either doesn't know the others are going to do it or willingly gives up his hand as recompense for the betrayal.

[@ladyfreedomrocks]

I will admit I thought it was Thor till I saw the hand missing.

[@martinlubbe9104]

Lots of Norse Deities have red hair Freya, Freyr, Thor and Loki

[@trillatsunset]

I always have to laugh because anytime you hear mythological lore, you CANNOT expect anything to be normal. In this case, I'm thinking "huh, Tyr's story doesn't sound too crazy or unusual, something normal for once". Two seconds later, he's said to have a 900-headed grandmother. And I'm left wondering why I expected anything ordinary from mythology lmao

[@Nectorr8962]

Hey Mythology guy, I would love a video on ymir because of how mysterious of a figure he is, like how the hell does he work? You know with the whole “his blood formed the ocean, his flesh became the land” etc etc

[@irishspartanstudios]

I'm interested in writing a norse mythology inspired story, but everyone is human. And there is a theory among mythology nerds that Garm is actually a name for Fenrir! So in the final battle (paralleling Ragnarok) Tyr gets locked in combat with Fenrir, and actually calls him Garm before he dies, revealing it to have been his childhood nickname.

[@Vaibhavsundan]

[@Black-And-WhiteWorldview8488]

Another aspect about Tyr, the Norse god of war, is instead of starting wars he happens to prevent AND end wars.

[@GarethOfByzantium]

And Tyr is the actual Zeus equivalent.

[@martinlubbe9104]

Eh more like Mars rome's Ares

[@GarethOfByzantium]

@@martinlubbe9104 No, his name is literally etymologically descended from Dyaus, same as Zeus and Jupiter.

[@Kiba_a.z]

@@GarethOfByzantiumthats why some scholars hypothesize that originally Tyr used to be the main God of Norse mythology and then got replaced with Odin later on.

[@SweetVermillion]

The story of Tyr and Fenrir makes me so angry. Tyr betrays his friend. Fenrir was on their side the whole time. Smart strong. But with the betrayal of the gods Fenrir became one of the catalysts of Ragnarok.

The Myth I read said that when Fenrir took his arm, Tyr didn't scream. The pain of betraying his wolf friend hurt far more than the amputation

[@TheGamersGuild1999]

Fenrir and Tyr are NOT friends tf??🤣 The only reason this son of Loki is even near them at all is so they can capture him and prevent Ragnarok. Tyr put his arm in Fenrirs mouth because Fenrir wouldnt let then put the flinsy looking rope on him unless one of the gods numver put a hand in his mouth (guaranteeing amputation if the rope is a magical item) there was no friendly betrayal in that myth

[@Sate12]

I heard something that it’s rumoured that why the battle cry is “RAHH” is because it’s sounds like týr and that the Vikings would shout it into battle as a good luck charm and people ended up using it but not hearing it or remembering exactly how it went and changed it into “RAHH”but it’s just a rumour

[@TheGamersGuild1999]

Incoherent nonsense lowkey, no offence. Not even a rumour, just a random thought that any stoner could come up with. RAHHHHHH isnt a cultural battlecry. Its just what tons of people screaming at different pitches and cadences sounds like. Hell a crowd of thousands just talking in public sounds just like a rahhhhhh.
