Question

Saxo Grammaticus describes this woman as an “Amazon” and recounts how in two separate battles, she alone turned the tides with “matchless spirit “ and “splendid bravery.” For 10 points each:

[10h] Name this Viking ruler and shield maiden who assisted her future husband Ragnar Lodbrok in avenging his grandfather.

ANSWER: Lagertha [or Ladgertha or Ladgerda]

[10e] Lagertha tested Ragnar’s worthiness for marriage by forcing him to fight against a bear and one of these creatures. One of these creatures named Fenrir bit off the right hand of Tyr.

ANSWER: wolf [accept dog]

[10m] During a battle in Denmark, Lagertha turned the tide of battle after saving a son of Ragnar by Aslaug named for a mark of this creature in his eye. Utgard Loki embarrassed Thor by making one of these creatures appear to be a cat and challenging Thor to lift it.
