Ofnir, also known as the Armored Ofnir Dragon, is a dragon from the Vikings theme.
Description
Ofnir is mostly earth blue and silver. Its legs, feet, and silver armor use elements from the Knights' Kingdom II figures, while its arms, wings, and head use TECHNIC and BIONICLE pieces. Its wings are dual-molded earth blue and flame yellowish orange. A Voodoo Flame emulates fire-breathing from its mouth. A pair of dark stone grey Chain 17 M hang from its neck.
Background
Ofnir is a fire-breathing dragon clad in a suit of armor, making it the most dangerous monster faced by the Viking Warriors. An image on the set's backside indicates that a Viking Warrior manages to ride on Ofnir's back and use its chains as reins, suggesting that it can be subdued and possibly even tamed.
Appearances
Notes
- Ofnir's name is derived from a stanza of Grímnismál, which names Ófnir among Nidhogg's fellow dragons gnawing at Yggdrasil's twigs in Norse mythology.[1] Ófnir is also known to be another name for Odin.
