History

Magni was born roughly 20 years after Thor and the other Asgardians took control of Earth. As an infant, he was taken hostage by Balder during a revolt by the remnants of Earth's heroes. Loki killed Balder and Thor put an end to the heroes.

Magni lifting Mjolnir

As he grew up, Magni adventured throughout the kingdom, battling the Midgard Serpent, averting natural disasters and other adventures. He grew to dislike Loki's treatment of the humans but followed his father's wishes out of loyalty. This doubt became further when he, the Warriors Three and Thialfi investigated a rebellion.

Magni also had a relationship with a human woman named Jordahl. Loki impersonated him and had her imprisoned. When Magni learned what had happened, he rescued her.

Magni went to see the exiled Sif and learned that Asgard had fallen into decay. He returned to learn Kya had been hanged. Her spirit led him to Mjolnir. Sif intructed Magni on use of the hammer and the two confronted Thor.

They were interrupted by the return of Desak. Magni is injured in the ensuing battle. Thor finally realized the consequences of his actions and undid the events leading to this future.

Trivia

• Magni is apparently based on the character of the same name in Norse Legend. However in the legends his mother is a giantess named Jarnsaxa.
