Thor appears as an icy, cold, and indifferent God; remaining largely expressionless. However, his true nature was unveiled in battle—Thor is a bloodthirsty battle maniac and takes great interest in combat; especially with strong and/or worthy opponents. Furthermore, he only shows happiness and joy in true battle. Thor is also a man of few words, not speaking unless absolutely necessary or when in combat. He often has a stoic and aloof expression on his face most of the time.
