Freya taught Odin much of what he knew when it came to magic. Frigg was Odin's official wife, but it has been determined that she is an exact duplication of Freya, making them one and the same.
Kratos didn't know she was a giant so it's possible Fey didn't know he was a god but she must have realised Atreus was at risk from Odin giant hunting ways.
Frigg (pronounced “FRIG;†Old Norse Frigg, “Belovedâ€), sometimes Anglicized as “Frigga,†is the highest-ranking of the Aesir goddesses. She's the wife of Odin, the leader of the gods, and the mother of Baldur.
According to an early God of War script, the character is 7 feet 0 inches (2.13 m) tall. In 2018's God of War, the designers gave Kratos a more Nordic look, including a full beard.
Many years later, Freya attends her brother Thor's coronation as the true Prince of Asgard.
Frigg, also called Friia, in Norse mythology, the wife of Odin and mother of Balder. She was a promoter of marriage and of fertility. In Icelandic stories, she tried to save her son's life but failed. Some myths depict her as the weeping and loving mother, while others stress her loose morals.
Freyja and her afterlife field Fólkvangr, where she receives half of the slain, have been theorized as connected to the valkyries. These examples indicate that Freyja was a war-goddess, and she even appears as a valkyrie, literally 'the one who chooses the slain'."
Balder, Old Norse Baldr, in Norse mythology, the son of the chief god Odin and his wife Frigg.
The God of War Loki's lineage is quite different, with Laufey as his birth mother and the Greek demigod, Kratos, as his birth father. GOW's Loki is known as Atreus throughout the duration of the game, and his true identity is only discovered at its conclusion.
One of the Norse Gods of Asgard, Balder is the half-brother of the Thunder God Thor, companion to the Warriors Three and a loyal follower and son of Odin, ruler of the gods. Balder is also briefly named ruler of Asgard during Thor's quest to find a then missing Odin. Balder is beloved by most who know him.
As a son of two chief gods Odin and Freya, Baldur was one of the most powerful gods, with Odin and Thor as the only known Aesir to surpass him.
Freya is an important NPC character in 2018's God of War, and even though she comes across as a friend, not a foe, to Kratos and his son, she's revealed to be the real villain at the end.
It is unknown when or how she met Kratos, but, after an unknown amount of time, they fell in love, and Faye married him and became pregnant with their child. Faye even learned about her husband's true nature as a god as well as his tragic and complicated past and kept it a secret from their son.
In Greek mythology, Kratos (or Cratos) is the divine personification of strength. He is the son of Pallas and Styx. According to Hesiod, Kratos and his siblings dwell with Zeus because their mother Styx came to him first to request a position in his regime, so he honored her and her children with exalted positions.
Hela Odinsdottir was the ruler of Hel, the daughter of Odin Borson, the older half-sister of Thor Odinson and the adoptive older sister of Loki Laufeyson. She was the Asgardian Goddess of Death.
In Norse mythology, Hela is Loki's daughter. So, the two of them being biologically related is in keeping with the mythology. Loki's mother has never been revealed in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it's possible that this character is actually Hela (Cate Blanchett), Thor's biological sister.
According to the stanzas, long ago, a mighty god was born by nine jötunn maidens at the edge of the world. This boy grew strong, nourished by the strength of the earth, the ice-cold sea, and the blood of swine. Names are provided for these nine maidens.
Freya's history was later retconned where she was the daughter of the Giant Thyrm and her position was given to the similarly-names fellow goddess Freyja. Thyrm once tried to get Thor and Loki to give him Mjolnir in exchange for Thor's hand in marriage to Freya. Thor and Loki were able to outwit Thyrm.
Bor Burison was the former King of Asgard, son of Buri, father of Odin, grandfather of Hela and Thor and adoptive grandfather of Loki. He was responsible for the victory over Malekith and his Dark Elf army during the First Battle of Svartalfheim.
