Jormungand
In
Norse mythology, the sea serpent
Jormungand was a child of
Loki and
Angerboda. The
Aesir knew Jormungand would be dangerous for humanity, so they tossed him into the waters that encircled Midgard. Jormungand grew so big that he was able to surround the earth and grasp his own tail.(see
Ouroboros).
During Ragnarok, Thor will finally kill Jormungand, but not before Jormungand can drop poison on Thor and kill him as well.
Jormungand is also sometimes referred to as the Midgard Serpent.
