The Real God Of War: Tyr (feat. Thor & An Epic Beer Run)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Everybody knows God of War... it's a brand name at this point and synonymous with Kratos, and, thanks to God Of War Ragnarök, the name Tyr has become somewhat of a household name as well. But the real Tyr actually has stories of his own, that are both hilarious and disastrously tragic... the latter featuring Fenrir, while the former features Thor and the world's most epic beer run. So, let's dissect the real God of War from Norse Mythology, Tyr, a man mostly known for his bravery, and, for better or for worse, his sense of duty. Since Tyr and Fenrir are inseparable, this story obviously heavily features Fenrir as well, and Thor also makes frequent appearances in Tyr's tales, as do Odin and Loki, which is why this video is a bit longer than my usual content, so do let me know if you enjoy these longer videos. Anyway... let's do this:

Notes
All myythologies are tough puzzle to piece together, because at the end of the day... these stories are thousands of years old. They have been re-told and re-written over and over. This is true for any mythology, including the Norse one. With every tale, there are many different versions that were told in various regions over various eras. For the sake of this video - and all my videos - I try to streamline these stories as much as possible and leave out some details, this might bother some, but it makes these videos more fun to watch.I don't want to get caught up in the details and lose sight of the bigger picture.
So... is this accurate and well researched? Absolutely, 100%. Is this the only interpretation or way of recounting the tale of Tyr, Thor and Fenrir? No, but subjectively speaking… it’s the way I like it the most.
Get All My Artwork & Support The Channel:
I get a lot of questions about my artwork and where it’s from or rather who draws it. Well the answer is that I create it - I don’t draw it. I use AI to create the artwork, using specific prompts, specific style influences from 18th and 19th century artists, and I spend about 6 hours per video just on the artwork. Each video has roughly double the artwork of what you actually see in the video, so a lot of it is unused. The good news here though is that you can get all that artwork on my Patreon - the artwork I do use, and the artwork I don’t use. Plus, by subscribing to my Patreon you are making a major contribution to Briefed and helping me to keep this channel going, because this is my full time job and the survival of the channel and quality of the videos greatly depends on said support. In return for supporting, you get more than the artwork though - you also get exclusive videos and producer credit, as well as access to a producer group that gets to vote on thumbnails, gets behind the scenes etc.
If you choose to become a Patron - thank you. I do not take it for granted.

Sources:
A lot of people ask me about my sources, and… to be honest, they are a mixed bag. One major source is my lifelong interest in storytelling and mythology. Another is the beautiful endless library that is the internet, and, third, I read the occasional book from time to time, which I’m happy to recommend to you, but also… I’m planning to write my own book on mythology, so, in due time the answer will be…:
Source? Me. Yay.
Fenrir was such a good boy. Ultimate betrayal, like your dad leaving you at a shelter and not looking back. 😢💔
I'll confess, apart from the great story telling and in-depth breakdown, why I love this channel than others who do stuffs like this is the dirty jokes!😂😂, Nobody does that part better than briefs❤
that's what I love to hear haha
@@Briefed_Mythology Odin Literally made Lokis Daughter one of the Most Powerful beings in Norse Mythology being she commands the Vast realm of the dead
Also dudes voice is PERFECTED for mythology lol
This channel is amazing, story telling is perfect, commitment to accuracy is refreshing, and you’re just overall nice to listen to. Cant wait to watch the channel blow up.
thanks man, appreciate that a lot 🥹🫡
He better watch out for kratos👀
ruclips.net/video/Es7B3tDTGxw/видео.htmlsi=FYJctObRwGHiuKJO
Doesn't Tyr help Kratos?
he @@ZombieBrain2007 he made this comment before the Valhalla DLC came out and yes Tyr and Kratos are Homies now
@@extraordinarygamer937 Ah I see
Tyr and Kratos are friends in God of War DLC...Kratos changed a lot
Cavill could be Tyr and MCU can make a TNT movie. Its like Tyr and Thor goes to White Castle
Bro how cool would that be. Literally call it TnT, give it the Thor Ragnarök vibe and tell the story of their adventures. spin it around - start with the beer run and end with Fenrir for dramatic oomph and you got an amazing movie.
Your story telling is so underrated, please never stop! always makes me laugh smile and reflect. love you bro
The narrator once was an adventurer like us, but then he took an arrow to the knee.

I can hear the Whiterun voice from anywhere. I'm glad he's doing okay 👍
Amazing videos man!!! Really hope your channel grows! Best wishes.
thank you Joe 😊
Yo! I love your videos man. The storytelling, the side-jokes, and, illustration are amazing. Chefs kiss👨🏼🍳. Thanks man I appreciate you a lot for these videos.
thank you for the kind words Gary 😊
Celtic/Scot/Irish mythology next plz ,love your videos.
Absolutely love your channel. Came for the Norse mythology, subscribed for the quality & humour. Thanx for doing what you do
thanks for watching 😊
Something you didn't mention was that he was also in some writings, his the God of justice and after losing his arm he was quoted saying "everyone deserves justice even Fenri
Love the humour along with the great story telling. Thank you.

-Thor Goggins and Tyr, probably
i'm really digging your channel, my dude. It's a perfect blend of myth with just enough minor embellishment to flesh it out. I adore how you edit the whole thing, and the humor is spot on. The Norse Pantheon is so metal, and you capture the essence perfectly.
Tyr is one of those great B-Character gods. He's well known and does a lot of cool stuff and isn't just mentioned in passing, but you do get the feeling that he was written out of a lot of the narrative of the surviving myths. I have read/heard that Odin's rise to Allfather may very well be due to the fact that as society progressed to the point where you had an important warrior class and a version of nobility, society may gravitate to making a venerated god of knowledge and scholars (a one nobility would often trace their lineage back to somehow ) a lot more important. So Odin was kinda plunked in there as a Big Sky Daddy. Thor was always a popular god of the people, so you know he's going to remain important. Plus, he's the guy you send to finish things...sometimes in a wedding dress, not judging.
My guess is that Tyr (or Tiwaz if you're a fan of Tuesday) really was a very important Indo European sky god thousands and thousands of years ago. Myth and story is written and rewritten by those able to do so, so it would make sense that a god like Odin who is mostly known for a lust for knowledge and kinda being a tricky or cruel dick at times would be placed in such high regard in the myths.
Anyway, excellent job. I'm a fan and will be glued to the channel.
thanks for that beautiful, insightful and detailed comment. I agree with everything you wrote there, I think it's a logical way to look at tyr's decline. thanks for adding that
This was great story telling and I am glad I've found your channel!
thank you brother. I'm glad you found it too 🫡
Interesting how the days of the week are Norse Gods for Northern/Germanic Europe and their counterpart Roman Gods for Southern except for Saturday and Sunday.
Lunedì, lundi (Luna) - Monday (Moon)
Martedì, mardi (Mars) - Tuesday (Tyr) - Gods of War.
Mercoledì, mercredi (Mercury) - Wednesday (Woden, Wotan, Odin) - Trickster Gods of thought or language
Giovedì, juedi (Jovis Deis in Latin which means Jove's or Jupiter's day)- Thursday (Thor) - gods of lightning and thunder
Venerdì , vendredi(Venus) - Friday (Frigga) - goddesses of love
Then the weekends get Christian for the Latin and Saturday is oddly Roman for the Germanic North:
Sabato, samedi (Sabbath) - Saturday (Saturn - Roman Cronos).
Domenica, dimanche (Lord's day) - Sunday (Sun, obviously)
It probably was a sense of remorse and self punishment..... Tyr
Brother this past week n half been uh you know checkin out your hella art all inspiring beautifully twisted labors on resurrecting the history of the Gods before our filthy civilization loses all hope for any few to attain a semblance of the rather vigor, the ambition of such incredible souls to come before us. The withering labor placed in orchestrating the closest the only narration worthy in this age to even whisper the illustrious journeys of such devils of those lifted to status of divine. Badass videos def become a patreon down the road for the work put into this channel the art the vocals is courageously fearless in being worthy of the gods. Awesome channel, shout out to your pup, beautiful always relaxin yet got the heata at a moments notice for papa. Lates bro, from Colorado
thank you bro - thank you truly. unfortunately my dog passed away since, but yes he was always relaxing and a beautiful being ❤️
The Norse myths are so captivating, and your dissertation is equally as enthralling.
I love your videos so much, the jokes keep getting better and better😂😂😂😂😂😂
A giant wolf, giant snake and half a white walker…genetics just said nah we good huh? 😂
Your style of narration is quickly becoming one of my favs. The one-liners are wity as ever. Doing a great job, keep it up 🤟🧡
thank you Ryan 🫡🫡
I think this might be your best one yet. You are definitely getting better, and you were damn good already!
thank you bro
cool to hear you touch on how Odin usurped Tyr as king of the Aesir
Tuesday could also be for Zeus. As Tyr & Zeus both share etymological roots.
very good point - also very true
Man I can't lie I LOVE these videos. Can't get enough.
I have made an active point, after finding you on TikTok, to watch your long-form videos here on RUclips. I know the stories, but your story telling makes it enjoyable to hear again and again and I always look forward to them and make sure I do not miss a single video. Keep up the awesome work, truly. I'm so glad I was the 2nd person to ever follow you lol

my day one 🥹
thank you for the love and support
Ok you earned a subscribstion with that. My man told an old story the most epic way!
thank you brother. hope you'll enjoy the new freyja video too
your story telling is soon point and sense of humor out of this world, I hope this channel blows up
These videos are really catching on man. 'Hey things can sound crazy to drunks too!!' 😁
love to hear that brother, love to hear that
Love the Norse mythology videos
next one coming next Wednesday
Epic story telling for sure! As a pagan ive heard these stories my entire life! I always love and enjoy them.
The way you tell the epics is spectacular.
Tyr is The Norse equivalent of Ra. The loss is stature is because energy, aka The Light, expends itself (ages/weakens) and The Son (Sun) is constantly renewing itself (Son becomes Father and passes on title of "Son," then Father becomes Grandfather (or Holy Ghost) and passes down title, etc.). Whereas The Night is Eternal. The Mother/Womb where Energy, both good and bad, was created. Forever embracing Her Children, even when they cannot see her because they are Blinded by "The Light." Darkness is creation, light is destruction. Pure (White, not Gold) Light is Purification. Gold is Corruption. The Sun harms, The Moon soothes.
How many different Peoples' Mythology has a Mother Figure that is either represented by Black/Silver or The Night/Moon, and how many have a "Golden" Boy (Sun/Son) that is either respectful/afraid of a "Black" Woman (older religions) OR belittles them and does everything possible to shut them up (more recent)?
Tyr and Thor needs to be a game
Agreed
Just dropping by to comment for the algorithm while I binge ALL of these. Your storytelling is TOP TIER ❤️
Found you on Tik tok last night and I’ve been watching you ever since !! I loveeeeeee your channel
thank you Jennifer 😊 glad you like it
I like the pronunciations and humour in your video! Subscribed🔥. I was raised as a modern Åsatru (Norse Pagan). Greetings from Norway🇳🇴
50% of the slain goes to Folkvangr (Freya’s world). And the other 50% goes to Valhall. There are other ways to be favored by the Gods than to die but TV shows and most movies woun’t tell you this. Probably because my faith is looked at as a Narnia fantasy that can be played with😀 You could enter Folkvangr or Valhall by dying in battle or because of your deeds and honour in life. So, dying old does not guarantee that you woun’t reach those places. A battle isn’t always physical!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣omg..i cant stop laughing.. that was funny as hell
I am naming my son Tyr so learning this was helpful and entertaining
aw man, that's so cool. really cool name
I've also read that Thor disguised himself as a child and went fishing with an ox head for jormungander, then when he took the bait that's when he revealed himself as Thor swung moljnir at him and then his line was cut because the guy he was fishing with was afraid
I'm subscribed and enjoying it so far. Great content. Keep them coming
The puppy did indeed make me subscribe. Very unfair move there. 😂
we do what we must haha
I be waiting for ur upload videos ❤so soothing
Imma give u a minute incase your innocence needs a minute to figure this out got me ded 😂
TYR is the god of justice and sacrifice, not war per se, but a part of war that is a commitment to self-sacrifice to achieve honor in battle. So warriors painted or scratched the TYRs rune onto their shields to let him know they were willing to die to achieve justice.
Followed you here from tiktok. Keep up the great work!
these videos are the best. all love
i want a comedy movie of tyr raising fenfir. like clifford the big red dog meets monty python.

This one might have been my favorite.
Loki's 3 children with Angrboda is the very same as the Hebrew 3 primodials: Ziz (sky), Behemoth (land), Leviathan (sea). Of course, Hel, the stillborn baby is Hell (not the one that we know now which is the Catholics basing it off of a play: Dante's Inferno).
As for the Thor's drunk escapades, there was a story which he went to the hall of giants (being a half-giant himself) was put on a drinking competition, as you do if you're a giant. They gave Thor a drinking horn and was dared that he could not finish it. Thor didn't know that the beer in the horn is the world's water itself. He basically drank 10% of it. He couldn't finish it but drank enough that it actually dried out some parts of the world and caused droughts and deserts. Another trick was lifting a foot. This foot was Jorgumandr, which was basically the sky (in this tale).
As for the story of Sleipnir, Loki and Thor was tasked by Odin to oversee the construction of the wall of Asgard or something (can't remember). Anyways, the build had a hickup because the giant engineer couldn't get his horse to move the materials. Thor basically made Loki do his thing and Loki transformed into a horse and seduced the horse (make it simp). Horse wouldn't budge till he got babymaking action. So Loki took an L and lo and behold, Sleipnir is born.
Lastly there was only 3 things in the beginning lore of Nordic creation. Ymir (Niflheim), Ganunggagap and Surtr (Muspelheim). Ymir died and created stuff. Somehow a cow was involved (which was weird because there was only 3 or rather 2 things: Ymir and Surtr and the space between them). But anyways, Ymir died and made everything freeze. Some random cow started licking his dead body which is the world at this point and that's where creatures like Tyr and Woden (now known as Odin but is also named Grimnr) came to being alongside Jotuns. Tyr and Woden belonged to Aesir. But somehow Woden married Frigg or Freya (debates on whether or not these 2 are different beings). She/They were Vanirs. Also no clue where they came from. Aesir and Vanir were kinda against each other till these 2 married.
Nordic stories are wild because they're so different from one another. Like, how are you involving a cow when there wasn't one?
Anyways, the Roman Empire basically took all pagan religions and shoved them into 1 with Christianity in turn Ibrahimic pantheon taking the head lead because of guilt and/or fear of killing a god incarnate. Some say that the whole Light God aspect of the religion is based off of the Nordic pantheon. Christian Light god being connected to Baldr after Surtr destroys the world in Ragnarok. Which is also why Christmas is synonymous to the birth of Christ. As well as Easter being the resurrection day of Christ. Those 2 holidays were pretty Nordic in origin. Even the whole Ragnarok was included in Revelations which is Armageddon.
Hey, I just sub and I liked your style of narrations and stuff.
I hope maybe you can do some other mythos and stories and characters from like the Ramayan, Mahabharat, Romance of Three Kingdom, Journey to the west and etc
much, much more content coming, of the things you mentioned, journey to the west is something I will be getting to first
LOL I love your “naughty” humor.
Great story. Subscribed.
This was really funny thank you
Ur a whole jokester..😂😂😂
These videos are great keep them coming

I came from tiktok. Loved the videos there, but the more in depth ones are even better!!! Thank you!!!
good to have you over here. also, I agree, I think my videos here are a lot better
Loving these videos 😊 great way to pass the time, you’re engaging but no fake energy and calming but not boring and I’m learning, so thank you!!! 💖💖💖
thank you for those kind words 😊🥹

Big fan from all the way Guyana 🇬🇾 South America ❤
Find this very like. Absolutely amazing! I hope you keep doing this and thank you
Damn glad these are longer now
Amazing content!
I look forward to these videos 😅
Love these!
Already my favourite youtuber
awww thanks - means a lot to hear
If you haven’t already, I would love to see a video breakdown on Modi and Magni, and Thamur. Btw, love the vids, keep em coming 👌🏾.
good idea. definitely worth a video, especially since magni is not often discussed
Loki had allergy with protection
I love the story telling and the humor of your channel it's great I'm a Norse pagan so I have read the eddas and a variety of the sagas and your on point with your information also being a polytheist I believe in many gods so it very interesting to hear about the Greek and Roman Gods as well and the similarities so great job also I would like to see a video on Freyr the brother of Freya
Oden's thirst for knowledge damned a whole family that was down for him. Because of a prophecy. It's like the prophecy predicted Odins paranoia once he went looking for wisedom.
Love your work please keep it coming.
New Zealand history has a similar story of the pacific of Maui and his brothers and his parents
Your narration and humour are second to none ❤ please keep it up 😊
Like your videos. Found you off of TikTok. Keep up the good work. I love mythology so this awesome!!!
ayyeee good to have you on board here too brother
Amazing the best storytelling
Lmfao. The dream of Odin part had me dying.
You just got a new Subscriber. This video was hilarious and entertaining. Do you have videos on other Cultures Pantheons or just Norse?
I have videos on Greek mythology too and will include other pantheons as well. Happy to have you on board here brother. Hope you enjoy the channel
Great story telling! Favourite Norse story so far 👏🏼 would love to hear you tell the Greek story of Eros and psyche.
oh I'll definitely be covering that story as well - 100%. glad you enjoyed this one clare
Tyr might suffer from the same issues that plague Hades. As described by Red of Overly Sarcastic Productions Hades is made with very few stories when compared to his brothers Zeus and Poseidon because of some rearranging of older stories. For instance in chthonic greece Poseidon was the King of the Gods and the underworld because of him being the cause for such great disaster as Earthquakes. And Zeus still ruled the skies with nary the sign of Hades anywhere.
Thanks for another episode in “Keeping Up With The Norse Gods!🙂👍
thanks for watching another episode 😊 hope you enjoy the last two as well
Love these videos. Don't forget to put your socials and patreon in the description so people can support you!
good point, I'll update the description soon 😊
I like the interpretation in God of War: Ragnarok in which Nidavellir is like the dwarves' capital city within svartalfheim :)
Nice work buddy!
thanks dan
Interesting. Some of the things said I recall being mentioned by Mimir and storyline cutscenes.
Mimir said Tyr was able to grow back his hand though.
Keep it up my man! Love the vids! Best part was your doggo !
zizou always steals the show 😊
I did all that and don't change i dig the whole format my g
