Midgårdsormen, Miðgarðsormr in Old Norse (the world serpent) or Jörmungandr, Jǫrmungandr in Old Norse (the mighty staff), is a being from Norse mythology.
It belongs to the giant family and is bred by Loki and Angerboda.
The Midgard Serpent is the sibling of Hel, the Fenriswolf, Narfe and Sleipner.
It is also called Jörmungandr, (Earth's band).
The name Midgårdsormen appears only in Snorre Sturlasson's Snorre's Edda.
In the Poetic Edda and in the skald poem it is called Jörmungandr, Ormr, Nádr (snake, dragon). The serpent lay in the world sea after being thrown there by Odin. Odin had let Loki's children live in Asgard, but when the Midgard Serpent became much too big, Odin had to get rid of it. The Midgard Serpent was so long that it could coil itself around Midgard and bite its own tail.
The Serpent of Midgard met the thunder god Thor three times. The first time was when Tor, Loki and Tjalve visited Utgård. Then Thor had to lift one of the giants' cats, while the giant Utgårda-Loke distorted his vision. The cat was in fact the Midgard Serpent and it became alarming when he managed to lift one of its legs. After this, however, Tor had to see himself defeated and had to receive mirrors for his low strength, until he learned that he had been exposed to sorcery.
The second time Thor rowed out to sea to fish in the company of the giant Hymer. Thor had then baited with the head of Hymer's biggest bull. The Midgard Serpent snapped and its head appeared above the surface of the water. Thor grabbed his hammer Mjölner and struck the snake in the head with all his might. The terrified Hymer then cut the meter rope and the snake sank into the sea.
This is how the episode is described in the poem Kvædet om Hymer. This scene is reproduced on three picture stones from the Viking Age, including the stone at Altuna church.
The third encounter takes place at the final battle of Ragnarök. Thor kills the Serpent of Midgard but doesn't have time to go more than nine steps before he dies, poisoned by etter.
According to myth, the Midgard Serpent was the child of Loki and a giantess named Angerboda. The Fenriswolf and Hel were the beast's siblings. After the conversion to Christianity, the Mediterranean Serpent was associated with the Leviathan of the Old Testament.
