Biography
Hrimhari
The prince of the wolves came to be the quarry of a group of giants that pursued him. During this time, Wolfsbane was transported into the realm where she became a target of the giants as well. This was until Hrimhari aided her with the pair escaping together where the pair came to be smitten with one another. (New Mutants Special v1 #1)
Years later, the death goddess Hela tried to take over Asgard. Part of her plan to conquer Asgard and kill a then-helpless Odin, using the Wolves of the forest as her scouts and spies. Hrimhari fought Hela's armies for his people's freedom but he was eventually captured and prisoned. Through the link Danielle Moonstar held with the Valkyries the New Mutants discovered Hela's plan and rescued Hrimhari. (New Mutants v1 #80) In the heat of battle and due to a mystical forcefield, Hrimhari was separated from the majority of the group, ending up with Meltdown and Warlock. (New Mutants v1 #81) After some delays, the trio headed straight for Odin's chambers, not understanding that he was under the much-needed Odinsleep which was a process that would restore his energy and vitality. They were soon captured by a guard and tossed in prison. With their powers, they could escape, but those they need to talk to, Balder the Brave and the Warriors Three would be returning anyway from other lands. The children of Volstagg, a member of the Warriors Three, appear at the cell's window, having eavesdropped on the current happenings. They know of Hrimhari, through the tales told by Hogun the Grim, their father's teammate. He, in turn, had heard of Volstagg's children through Hogun's tales himself. Understanding that the power of Thor, Balder and the others might not quite be enough, the children tell of the sorcerer Tiwaz, who lives in Astrond at the edge of the icy wastes. (New Mutants v1 #82) The children agreed to stay behind in Hrimhari's cell to emphasize the seriousness of the situation, for when the others do come back. Hrimhari and his friends travelled to Tiwaz's home, battling several of Hela's bat-creatures along the way. They survive a crash and capture by the Frost Giants thanks to Tiwaz. He told of much needed information about Hela's campaign. Though the three did not know it, this Tiwaz is Thor's great-grandfather. (New Mutants v1 #83) Tiwaz sent the trio on a mission; they free the Warriors Three from the dangerous Hive Trolls. Hrimhari recruited Ula, the queen of the trolls, to their side. The hive did not trust mortals nor most Asgardians; it was Hrimhari's honor that convinced them Hela was the true enemy. (New Mutants v1 #84)
During the fall of Asgard, Frost Giants fought and killed Hrimhari's entire pack. Hrimhari tracked the Frost Giants quickly and while locked in battle with them, Hrimhari found Ragnarok. Hrimhari was reborn along with Asgard on Midgard in Oklahoma. Hrimhari claims he was reborn for the purpose of finding his true love, Rahne Sinclair. (X-Force v3 #12)
During the War of the Realms, Hrimhari made a deal with the forces of the Dark Council during the invasion of Midgard. After winning many battles, he was given the chance to manifest on Earth alongside his son Tier. Once there, he hired Sabretooth to capture Wolfsbane so that he and his child could be reunited with her. (War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men v1 #2)
