Fenrir
Fenrir is a giant wolf, he was also called Fenris. Snorri Sturluson had also given Fenrir another name, Vanargand. Fenrir is the son of Loki and Angrboda and the brother of Jormungandr (the Midgard Serpent) and Hel. He is the father of Skoll and Hati (who are surnamed Hroðvitnisson), who will chase the sun and moon respectively until Ragnarok, when they will catch up to and devour their targets. accessed 09/10/2014
First Viking style shield I have ever built. Has Skoll and Hati hand painted on the front.
"Far away and long ago" (1920) by Willy Pogany. Hati Hróðvitnisson (first name meaning "He Who Hates, Enemy"[1]) is a wolf that according to Gylfaginning chases the Moon across the night sky, just as the wolf Sköll chases the Sun during the day, until the time of Ragnarök when they will swallow these heavenly bodies, after which Fenrir will break free from his bonds and kill Odin.
