It is later revealed that in order to escape Hel, Balder was forced by Hela to kill all those “tens of thousands” he had previously killed in battle again, in an epic confrontation that lasted so long that Balder’s hair turned white when he finally emerged victorious from his long depression. On the second occasion, however, Balder is traumatized by the experience upon seeing the souls of everyone he had killed in battle and gives up killing. This almost breaks when Loki had the blind god Hoder accidentally kill Balder with a mistletoe arrow. To prevent this, Odin cast spells to keep Balder invulnerable. Like the mythological version, the Marvel version of Balder is the catalyst that will trigger Ragnarök and end Asgard. Threatened with execution for ignoring the call to battle for the sake of a fallen bird, his men begged Odin to take one of their lives. Balder has aided Thor against many of his enemies, such as Skagg the Storm Giant and the fire demon Surtur when he warned Thor that Loki would free them, who planned for them to kill Odin after Heimdall, Thor’s adoptive brother, Loki, the Executioner and Enchantress, The Enchanters Three, The Wrecker, and Mangog.īalder is also briefly made ruler of Asgard during Thor’s quest to find a missing Odin.
One of the Norse gods of Asgard, Balder is the half-brother of the God of Thunder Thor, companion of the Warriors Three, and a faithful follower and son of Odin, ruler of the gods.
Why was Balder not in the Thor movies? Who is Balder the Brave?
