IC INFORMATION
Characters Name: Freyr
Age: He's Norse god, but is physically early twenties or so.
Canon: Matantei Loki
Canon Point: Vol 3 of Matantei Loki Ragnarok.
Species: Vanir (Norse God)
Gender: Male
Orientation: Heterasexual.
History: Freyr came to Midgard in order to find his sister Freya and seal Loki away from Asgard. He was paired up with Heimdall though despite his partners hatred for Loki, Freyr never really seemed interested in the mission. Instead he played around as a phantom thief and stalked his crush Mayura, who happened to be Loki's assistant. He chose the role of a phantom thief because Loki worked as a child detective.
Freyr isn't seen much in the first part of the series, mostly only showing up as a quick gag, but it becomes apparent that Freyr is more aware of what's going on than the rest of the characters. In the second part of the series he has more screen time, but doesn't have much in the way of important events until the end of the series which is not translated.
Appearance: Freyr is a tall and thin man with shoulder length brown hair and light blue eyes. Though sometimes they seem to range from green to brown as well. He could easily be described as hansom and 'prince' like, but the way he carries himself tends to break that illusion.
Personality: Freyr isn't an overly complex character but he comes up with rather complex and pointless plots. He heavily prefers theatrics and dramatics. The more convoluted it is, the more he likes it. This could be because of his romantic nature and the sorts of things that tend to be romanticized. This basic trait can easily be seen by the fact he has decided his human world persona would be a Phantom Thief. His reasoning for this was because Loki was acting as a detective, and since he would be Loki's rival, and a phantom thief is a detectives rival, he would become one himself. Of course his reasons for being up against Loki are paper thin, and half the time he seems to be more playing a role than using the role for a particular goal.
Another example of his over exaggerated romanticism is his falling in love with Mayura, Loki the main characters assistant, at first sight. He decides from this one off encounter that she is the perfect Japanese woman and from that moment on (despite learning her name and hearing it many times) calls her Yamato Nadeshiko. He is determined to steal her heart and marry her. He pretty much forgot everything else he was doing after this, which was pretty much one of the first things that happened after he was introduced.
Besides having ridiculous ideas of romanticism and defining his life as if he were living a play or was a character in a fictional novel Freyr is also pretty air headed. It's hard to say if he's outright stupid, because he is capable of some clever things (though perhaps creative is the more appropriate word for it), however lots of simple things confuse him, he is quick to distraction and seems to be incapable of taking anything very serious for very long. On the other hand he will take stupid things no one should seriously and can't let go of it. The only thing he does take legitimately serious is his sister Freya and her safety. But even then he has shown to forget about her and his worry about her frequently.
Originally Freyr teamed up with Heimdall who was ordered by Odin to put a Rune on Loki so he could not return to Asgard and pretty much make Loki's life hell and horrible. But this was all Heimdall's idea as there was a grudge between them. Odin also ordered Heimdall to deal with Loki. Freyr's only concern was the fact that Freya was said to be on Earth somewhere and potentially a target of Loki's. Worried that his precious sister would get corrupted by the trickster god he wanted to find her and save her before Loki could do something wrong.
In the end Freya is fine (and is in love with Loki so she doesn't like people attacking him), Freyr the moment he sees she's okay is fine with it and then carries on as usual. It was pretty much a "Oh hey there you are Freya, I'm glad you're okay! Now back to stalking Yamato Nadeshiko and being a Phantom Thief!" which sums up his general flow of personality pretty well.
Freyr is what most would call a ditz, in fact he and his sister are frequently referred to as the "stupid siblings" because they are so dingy most the time. However despite this Freyr somehow is capable of many great feats, he is considered a hero of the gods for a reason. So usually even if it might be in a fumbling sort of manner Freyr manages to succeed with his goals. However his goals in canon are not succeed. (Though his thieving are successful despite the fact he doesn't get far with this items, usually given them to Mayura before he escapes.) Mostly this is because his first goal is to keep Loki in Midgard, though he doesn't seem particularly interested in that so he doesn't take it seriously. The other is to win Mayura's heart, which Mayura doesn't seem to notice very well.
For the most part Freyr is a joke character, every so often he might say something mysterious and serious, or even look the part, but it never lasts. He's very easy going and self absorbed and doesn't pay a whole lot of attention to things he doesn't personally care about. (Though he may remember them somewhere down the line.) He's demonstrated as a contrast to Freya who is mostly on top of things and much more cunning in her plots, though still capable of being flighty and silly in her own way. But there is a reason Freya is more or less in charger after Ragnarok and not Freyr.
We do get to see a slightly more serious and capable Freyr later in the series, but those chapters have not been translated and I do not know the circumstances so I won't mention what it means here. If I were to guess it's simply aspects that coincide with the fact he is capable when he wants to be and puts his mind to it. He is a hero and a great warrior after all.
One of Freyr's strengths is in his ability to be optimistic and pursue his beliefs and desires without letting others get in his way. In fact no matter what other people say or do it won't change his mind once he's decided on something. His conviction is something to be admired in this respect. This is best illustrated in his pursuit of Mayura, who no matter what he doesn't give up on despite the fact she obviously doesn't think of him in a romantic way like he does of her.
He is also known for being rather skilled as a warrior and the best at Runes out of all the gods. Even Loki who is known for his skill with Runes states that Freyr surpasses him in that regard.
Freyr's imagination is also quite amazing and considering his "inventing" skill only works because of his imagination it's a great asset. Since his inventions do not work based on what they are made of but rather what they are intended to do this means the more creative Freyr was when making it the better it will work, as the only thing that allows them to function is the power of a god.
Freyr is immensely positive and rarely is held down for long. Even when he's feeling low it doesn't last long. Of course some of this could be the fact he seems to have an incredibly short attention span. Frequently he will change moods or abandon topics simply because Mayura walked by. In fact in vol 7 he decides to stay in Midgard, despite having planned to leave soon, simply because he saw Mayura and still wanted to pursue her. There is also a feeling that Freyr simply does not like to think about unpleasant things, and could be shifting his mood away from unpleasant topics on purpose.
Freyr despite being considered a great warrior and user of magic as well as inventor and other things, is not the brightest person around. It's debatable how much of this is true lack of intelligence and how much of it is severe lack of anything near common sense. However in the end he is slow to realize things, is incredibly oblivious and gets confused easily. Though despite this he seems to be one of the few gods on Midgard (out of Loki, Thor, Freya and Heimdall) to know something happened to Odin to change him. A good example of his lacking the ability to figure simple things out is a trick Loki set up once while he was acting like a phantom Thief. Loki put a teddy bear in a box with a mirror on one side so it would look like it was floating. Freyr thought this was something with magnets and was desperate to know how it was done. It also took him several meetings with Loki to realize that child Loki and adult Loki were the same Loki he was suppose to be finding.
Abilites: Freyr is a master of Rune magic, as well as a skill warrior and a god. He is known for his inventions (which only function because he is a god) as well as art and music. Though he's not particularly good at either. His powers beyond that are vague and abstract, and his inventing skill seems to be based on if he can imagine it working it works. He is also a god of prosperity and fertility and it is safe to say he has powers that reflect those aspects as well.
Other: The version I am apping is the manga version of Freyr, which is a little different from the anime version. The anime version more blatantly portrays his more serious moments (while manga has it more subtle and infrequent, it seems to only really come up when Odin is being talked about). There are also events that happen in the anime that do not happen in the manga.
SAMPLES
First Person: Post in another game.
Third Person:
Freyr had only worried about his situation for a short time, it probably hadn't even passed an hour before he adapted to his new surroundings without much question. Oh sure in the back of his mind he was thinking 'damn you Loki!' and other various things, but there was just so much going on that those thoughts slipped to the side. In fact his first activity was going to the store, it was just wrong to have nothing good in the refrigerator, especially if he was to be a family man!
Ah... a family man, but a family without Mayura. How could he allow such a betrayal? He almost broke down in the middle of the street. But no, no he could not show such weakness. Surly Mayura would understand, with her kind and gracious heart. Yes, she had to, this was not his choice, but as a noble god it was his duty to take his role and play it out as best as possible!
He straitened his posture and resigned himself back to his duty as the father of a family. On to the store for good food!
