Tyr
Lord Týr Vilison, formerly Prince Týr Culson (a.k.a. Týr Serpent-Son)
Only son of King Cul and the Frost Giant Hymir, and nephew of All-Father Odin. His birth was notable for the fact that Hymir was not the consort of Cul, and Týr was born out of wedlock, although Cul formally acknolledged the child as his son and heir, and brought him to Asgardia to be raised.
During Hela's Rebellion, Týr assisted in the capture of Hela's stead, the Fenris Wolf. In order to capture the wolf, Eitri was commisioned to craft Gleipnir, an unbreakable rope. Odin then asked Fenris to let them tie him up with Gleipnir as a game, but Fenris noticed his fear and suspected Odin was trying to trick him. He therefor accepted on the condition that one of the gods put their hand in the his mouth, believing this would act as suriety. However, Týr was willing to sacrifice himself for the cause of peace and agreed. As soon as Fenris understood that he was trapped, he bit off Týr's hand.
Following Hela's inprisonment, both her name and the name of Cul were made taboo. Týr's entries in the genealogies of the Aesir where editted to show him as the son of Odin and Cul's younger brother Vili. Týr obeyed the taboo, keeping his own parentage and the story of how he lost his hand a secret, even from his cousins Thor and Loki.
He is married to the Mountain Giantess, Zisa.
