Who wins this I say Fenrir but Kyuubi could be a challenge.
What's a wolf gonna do vs. a Demon fox who's 100x larger and more powerfull?
Sengoku

Being a mythological fan ever since I was a child, I would have to say Fenrir would win.
Being Loki's eldest son and one of the most powerful creatures in the mythological world (including greek and egyptian), Fenrir would definitely win.
At some point, Fenrir grew so big that from his lower jaw to his upper jaw reached from the ground earth all the way to the skies, piercing it.
That is huge, my friends.
and the only way to defeat and kill Fenrir is when the day Ragnarok comes. And Kyuubi isnt Odin's son. So Fenrir would stomp Kyuubi's ass to the ground.

Fenrir.
Exactly how big is kyuubi? Fenrir can swallow the moon :laugh
He should be over 100m. tall.
He's tails crush mountains, cause tidal waves.
His regeneration makes him nearly invurnable.
Also his chakra should protect him.

100m? i dont think thats bigger than Fenrir, deathscythe :P
Odin then had the dwarfs forge the chain Gleipnir ("deceiver" or "entangler"). It appeared to be only a silken ribbon but was made of six wondrous ingredients: the sound of a cat's footfall, the beard of a woman, the roots of a mountain, bear's sinews (meaning nerves, sensibility), fish's breath, and bird's spittle (which explains why these things are not found today).
^^ I doubt Kyuubi would be able to break that chain.

fenrir is strong enough that the norse god feared it. and on the day of the ragnarok it took an enraged god to kill it not before it bit off a gods arm. i'd name the god but i haven't brushed up on my norse mythology

Tinapay, I think you are thinking about Tyr, the god of war. But i dont think his hand was bitten off from the war (Ragnarok) but WAS when Fenrir wanted one of the gods to put his/her hand in Fenrir's mouth while performing to escape the chains, only Tyr, the god of war, was brave enough to take on this challenge. By doing so, his hand was bitten off.
Then again, I may be wrong ^_^

When the gods wanted chain Fenrir with Gleipnir. Fenrir said he would let them if one them put their hand in his mouth incase he could not break it. Tyr was the only god brave enough to do it and Fenrir bit his hand off.
Sengoku
12-20-2006, 02:45 PM
Yep, Fenrir killed Odin and his son, Vidar, killed Fenrir.
Amazing thing is that they all knew who is going to die and who is not. AND that Ragnarok is inevitable.
Imagine knowing that you are doing the best you can muster but know that you are going to die in the end... THAT, my friends, would make an awesome AAA+++ title movie.

Both Fenrir and Kyuubi can kill each other if they can find a way to do it. I still say Fenrir because of his size and brute strength.
Sengoku
12-20-2006, 03:52 PM
Even if it is like that, Fenrir would still win because of the size and strength alone.
AND since he is loki's son, he has his genes as well.
when I see Kitsune beating Amaterasu, let's talk :P
but i doubt that is going to happen
and i'm pretty sure we can all agree that Amaterasu and Odin are on the same "god tier" level.

Odin is a god, but he's not a true omnipotent. He's nigh-omnipotent. Most norse gods aren't really true omnnipotents.
Myth kyuubi's being highly underestimated, it has omniscience, it's not that hard for it find out fenrir's weakness

^I read about mythology before, and from what i read odin is far from being omniscient, if he was then he would have easily found a way to counter fenrir. Again, with omniscience, you can achieve both omnipotence and omnipresence. Odin didn't do any of those.
Sengoku
12-20-2006, 08:30 PM
^ There is absolutely nothing he can do because its been prophesied that he will will be killed when Ragnarok comes.
HE is omnipotent because he knows everything around him. He is a GOD. He has infinite wisdom.
Those are all clear signs of omniscience.
~Shin~

^To an omnipotent being, there's no end. An omnipotent being can just change it so that nothing will happen. If odin was defeated then, he's not an omnipotent

12-20-2006, 08:35 PM
myth kyuubi also has inifinte wisdom, and can create pockets in reality. if odin is omnipotent than how did fenrir beat him?
Sengoku
12-20-2006, 08:42 PM
Omnipotence (literally, "all power") is power with no limits or inexhaustible, in other words, unlimited power.
Which he gained by sacrificing his eye to the Well of Wisdom.
Not only THAT, but he also hung himself on the trees of Yggdrasil for 9 days and 9 nights to know about the secrets of the 9 worlds.
Omniscience is the capacity to know everything infinitely, or at least everything that can be known about a character's including thoughts, feelings, life and the universe etc.
Odin (Old Norse Óðinn) is considered the chief god in Norse mythology and Norse paganism.
From his throne, Hlidskjalf (located in Valaskjalf), Odin could see everything that occurred in the universe.
~Shin~
12-20-2006, 08:52 PM
^Again, if he was a true omnipotent, then no being can even get near him. But odin was defeated by fenrir, omnipotents don't get defeated no matter what. That's what omnipotence gives you
Sengoku
12-20-2006, 09:02 PM
^^ not always, just look at marvel and you will see omnipotence people getting trashed.
Prophesy is prophesy, there is nothing you can do about it. Norse mythology relies heavily on destiny.
~Shin~
12-20-2006, 09:04 PM
^That's why i'm saying u can't really say norse gods are true omnipotents. If u're a true omnipotent then u're like TOAA, and TOAA has never gotten beat and no one can even hope to beat him

12-20-2006, 09:09 PM
^There's a difference between true omnipotence and omnipotence.

Omnipotents are Living tribunal, Death, Eternity and such
True omnipotents are completely unstoppable, nothing in any universe can stop them
Sengoku

This is an interesting argument.
From what i remember, Odin was an omniscient being (had infinite wisdom and all that) so he KNEW beforehand of Ragnarok, yet Fenrir still killed him.
Just because the Kyuubi can see the events coming doesnt mean that it can stop Fenrir.
Now on to the next point... according to the mythology, Fenrir will be killed by a specific person (Odin's son). If you consider this, there's no way that Kyuubi can kill him since he's destined to die by someone else. (We should throw this out though since its kinda like arguing that nobody can hit bleach characters because they cant be seen / touched by normal humans :P )
If we disregard all the prophecy of Ragnarok crap and just make it to where they are able to actually fight with eachother, i'd say Fenrir would win. Kyuubi would realize that theres no way it can stop him, and just see his death as inevitable. (same way Odin did :( )
By the way, this is my first post here, so hi guys :)

Being a god doesnt mean much. Gods get beat all the time. Odin wasnt as strong as you think he was. Matter of fact as i remember it every time he needed something taken care of he called Thor to do it. Odin was just very wise and that was it, unless you can tell me what he did that makes him so powerful.

Odin was the king because of how wise he was, i dont know how many times i can say that. What has Odin done that makes him such a good fighter that you use him a leverage.

Reason why I said Fenrir is capable of swallowing the moon AND also the sun is because of the fact that his sons, Hati and Skoll, did so at the days of Ragnarok. Also, Fenrir is also the biggest wolf in Norse mythology and being the father of Hati and Skoll, who did so easily, its probable to think that Fenrir could do the same.

Yup the Mayan to Aztek myth have the same relationship to the Greek to Roman myth. (to a certain extent).

Cool but i dont see why the OP would say myth Kyuubi and mean Naruto's Kyuubi.
Interesting I went to Belize a few years ago and saw Mayan temples. The guide talked to us about the Mayan calendar which the world ends in 2012.
The guide did not tell us much about the Mayan gods they talked more about the culture and the people.
Yeah the calendar is interesting in itself as well.
Its colander that measures time, days, weeks, months, and years.
Supposedly its more accurate then the current calendar we use.

No you have it all wrong, your taking everything word for word. Its like when people debate if Popo really moved faster than lightning or was he just implying to move very fast. Me, i take it as he was big but it was never said that he could swallow the moon. Or opening his jaw to reach heaven and earth. You'd take that as hes as big as the universe(or some such) as i would take it as just having a big mouth. There is nothing in all that i read that said Fenrir was big enough to swallow the moon. Thus from what i gather your saying(since everyone else was somewhat normal height) that if he could swallow the moon he would be to big to fit on earth.

While i do agree that Fenrir is depicted as being huge (judging from the jaws touching both heaven and earth), you guys are forgetting that this mythology was made in a period where people didnt know exactly how large the earth and moon were.
Fenrir is still huge, but im only pointing out that the size of some of these creatures (especially the one that ate the sun) may be exaggerated since you're comparing them to modern day knowledge of how large the sun and moon are. I highly doubt the Norse people knew the sun was so damn huge :P

If they knew that the moon and the sun were as big as todays
it wouldnt stop them from still saying that they can swallow them.
I mean, if they said that Fenrir's Jaws were from earth to the heavens, i'm pretty sure it doesnt take a rocket scientist to know how big is that.
Also, they have mountains too. so they would know how tall the heavens were, and they know that the heavens extends even further up to the skies.

Alright being the Kyuubi fan I am I think god of fire Kyuubi "might" lose to Fenrir. Size means nothing to me. Power =/= Size. It would be a good fight. Fenrir may come out on top. I can't really decide because Fenrir doesn't seem to be anything special except for his size. If it was myth Kitsune he could just create his own reality drag fenrir inside turn into vidar (sp) and slaughter him.

Well, i already stated that the jaws reaching from heaven to earth proved that fenrir is huge, so im not arguing with you there.
But the Norse people didnt know that the sun was so far away from earth and that it was a few million times the size of it (not sure on the number :P ). Judging from their appearances in the sky, they probably thought the sun and moon were the same size and much smaller than what they actually are.
If this is true, then eating the sun or moon wouldnt be as large a feat as you guys are making it out to be, although still very huge.

Fenrir is also incredibly strong he broke all his bindings before gleipnir when he was smaller. The gods feared Fenrir's strength when he got bigger everyday.
Khamzul
12-21-2006, 04:20 AM
What is important to remember is that norse mythology has an inconsistent lore. Atleast, in some ways. Odin could see everything from his throne - yet he still used Hugin and Munin (his ravens) to gain news from foreign lands. Loke always managed to fool the god's, even when Hugin and Munin told Odin everything.
What confuses me is what Kyuubi we are using. If we are using the Kyuubi from Naruto I think that Fenrir would win, but if we are using Myth Kyuubi (Kitsune) then I don't think Fenrir got a chance. But since OP it stated Naruto Kyuubi somewhere in the thread, I will go with that.
If we are to be talking everything literally then Kyuubi could bind the Fenrir with a chain made of:
-The spit of a bird
-A womans beard
-The roots of the mountains
-The breath of a fish
-The sound of a cat walking
-And the sinew of a bear
Which would be thinner then a wire of silk.
Another thing to consider is that when Ragnarok starts, then the wolf would have jaws reaching from the sky to the earth. To determine a "current Fenrir" can also be taken into consideration.
"It is prophesied that at Ragnarök the wolf will at last break free and join forces with the enemies of the gods and will then devour Odin himself. After that Viðarr, Odin's son, will slay the wolf to avenge his father, either with a sword through the heart, or by tearing apart the wolf after placing one foot shod with a special shoe on its lower jaw and one hand on its upper jaw."

Kitsune are believed to possess great intelligence, long life, and magical powers. They are a type of yōkai, or spiritual entity, and the word kitsune is often translated as fox spirit. However, this does not mean that kitsune are ghosts, nor that they are fundamentally different from regular foxes. Because the word spirit is used to reflect a state of knowledge or enlightenment, all long-lived foxes gain supernatural abilities.[5]
There are two common classifications of kitsune. The myobu are benevolent, celestial foxes associated with Inari; they are sometimes simply called Inari foxes. On the other hand, the wild nogitsune (literally, field foxes) tend to be mischievous or even malicious.[9] Local traditions add further types.[9] For example, a ninko is an invisible fox spirit that human beings can only perceive when it possesses them. Another tradition classifies kitsune into one of thirteen types defined by which supernatural abilities the kitsune possesses.[10][11]
Physically, kitsune are noted for having as many as nine tails.[12] Generally, a greater number of tails indicates an older and more powerful fox; in fact, some folktales say that a fox will only grow additional tails after it has lived 1,000 years.[13] One, five, seven, and nine tails are the most common numbers in folk stories.[14] When a kitsune gains its ninth tail, its fur becomes white or gold.[12] These kyūbi no kitsune (nine-tailed foxes) gain the abilities to see and hear anything happening anywhere in the world. Other tales attribute them infinite wisdom, essentially omniscience.[15]
This obake karuta (monster card) from the early 19th century depicts a kitsune. The associated game involves matching clues from folklore to pictures of specific creatures.

This obake karuta (monster card) from the early 19th century depicts a kitsune. The associated game involves matching clues from folklore to pictures of specific creatures.
A kitsune may take on human form, an ability learned when it reaches a certain age — usually 100 years, although some tales say 50.[13] As a common prerequisite for the transformation, the fox must place reeds, a broad leaf, or a skull over its head.[16] Common forms assumed by kitsune include beautiful women, young girls, or elderly men. These shapes are not limited by the fox's age or gender,[5] and a kitsune can duplicate the appearance of a specific person.[17] Foxes are particularly renowned for impersonating beautiful women. Common belief in medieval Japan was that any woman encountered alone, especially at dusk or night, could be a fox.[18]
In some stories, kitsune have difficulty hiding their tails when they take human form; looking for the tail, perhaps when the fox gets drunk or careless, is a common method of discerning the creature's true nature.[19] Variants on the theme have the kitsune retain other foxlike traits, such as a coating of fine hair, a fox-shaped shadow, or a reflection that shows its true form.[20] Kitsune-gao or fox-faced refers to human females who have a narrow face with close-set eyes, thin eyebrows, and high cheekbones. Traditionally, this facial structure is considered attractive, and some tales ascribe it to foxes in human form.[21] Kitsune have a great fear and hatred of dogs even while in human form, and some become so rattled by the presence of dogs that they revert to the shape of a fox and flee. A particularly devout individual may be able to see through a fox's disguise automatically.[22]
One folk story illustrating these imperfections in the kitsune's human shape concerns Koan, a historical person credited with wisdom and magical powers of divination. According to the story, he was staying at the home of one of his devotees when he burned his foot entering a bath because the water had been drawn too hot. Then, "in his pain, he ran out of the bathroom naked. When the people of the household saw him, they were astonished to see that Koan had fur covering much of his body, along with a fox's tail. Then Koan transformed in front of them, becoming an elderly fox and running away."[23]
Other supernatural abilities commonly attributed to the kitsune include possession, mouths or tails that generate fire or lightning (known as kitsune-bi; literally, fox-fire), willful manifestation in the dreams of others, flight, invisibility, and the creation of illusions so elaborate as to be almost indistinguishable from reality.[20][16] Some tales speak of kitsune with even greater powers, able to bend time and space, drive people mad, or take fantastic shapes such as a tree of incredible height or a second moon in the sky.[24][25] Other kitsune have characteristics reminiscent of vampires or succubi and feed on the life or spirit of human beings, generally through sexual contact.[26]
