Thor Odinson is the Asgardian God of Thunder, the former Crown Prince and later King of the Nine Realms, the rightful wielder of Mjolnir and Stormbreaker, and the mightiest warrior among the Avengers. Son of All-Father Odin and the Earth-goddess Gaea, raised by Frigga alongside his adopted brother Loki, Thor's millennia-long arc transforms him from an arrogant, war-hungry prince forbidden from Midgard (Earth) into the universe's last hope against Thanos. By the end of the Infinity Saga he has lost his father, mother, brother, sister, best friend, and even his home realm of Asgard itself—yet still carries the weight of a king and the fury of a storm.

Background Story
Origin
Born in 520 CE (estimated) to Odin, King of the Nine Realms, and Gaea, the Elder Goddess of Earth (secretly, and later Frigga, the All-Mother, raised him as her own), Thor Odinson was raised in the gilded halls of Asgard as its crown prince. Gifted with the enchanted hammer Mjolnir at the dawn of the Viking Age as a reward for his courage, Thor grew into a boastful, headstrong warrior eager to prove himself against the Frost Giants of Jotunheim. In 2011, his reckless and unauthorized raid on Jotunheim triggered a near-war; Odin, in fury, stripped Thor of Mjolnir and his godhood, exiled him to Midgard (Earth), and cast an enchantment on the hammer: 'Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.' On Earth, Thor met astrophysicist Jane Foster, learned humility, and proved worthy by sacrificing himself to the Destroyer sent by Loki. Restored to power, he returned to Asgard to confront his adopted brother—who had seized the throne after tricking Odin into the Odinsleep. What followed was a decade of war and loss: Thor repelled the Dark Elf Malekith (losing his mother Frigga), defeated the Fire Demon Surtur and saw Asgard itself destroyed in Ragnarok (losing his father Odin to peaceful passing), lost his left eye to Hela, and then watched Thanos murder half his people aboard the Statesman in the opening moments of Infinity War—including Heimdall and his brother Loki, who died right in front of him. In a storm-fueled rage, Thor traveled to Nidavellir, survived the full heat of a dying neutron star to forge Stormbreaker, and arrived on Wakanda at the climax of the Battle of Wakanda nearly killing Thanos with a single axe-throw—too late to stop the Snap. Thor beheaded Thanos in an act of empty vengeance on the Garden, then spent five years adrift in New Asgard as an alcoholic, 'Fat Thor' gamer with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Mjolnir's alternate-timeline version called to him again during Endgame, and, restored to his full power (alternate-Mjolnir + Stormbreaker combo), he joined Cap and Iron Man in the three-vs-one against 2014-Thanos. After the Battle of Earth, Thor named Valkyrie the new Queen of Asgardians and set off into the stars with the Guardians to finally find himself. His saga continues in Thor: Love and Thunder, where he reunited with Jane Foster (The Mighty Thor) and faced Gorr the God Butcher.
