AS IT IS. Key differences are that this is an Alternate universe of its own, which draws from two separate continuities in Marvel. The material base in itself is essentially 'Earth 199999 (movie-verse) with the story from Tales of Asgard (80920) actually occurring in the teen years, albeit with changes where needed'. Minor differences, such as Laufey thus already being dead exist... However, there is a larger difference.

Loki, while still the younger, is not the adopted son.

Thor is.

But Thor would have no magic. He would have no instinct to change his skin on human touch. And when Odin took the as yet unnamed infant in his home he was not sure what he would do to solve this... At the advice of the Norns of the World Tree however, he would find his answer. A charmed brace, meant to grow with the boy, would be affixed upon his wrist. It would hide his appearance during waking hours and hours of his own awareness... For his younger years, such a device would be perfect. In the meantime, he and his wife Frigga would have between them their own son, 'Loki'. He would take after his grandmother, with dark hair and bright eyes and a penchant for magic and trickery... In the name of fun, of course. And despite differences, the boys seemed to get along fine...

However one day Loki went to play a trick on his elder brother. A seemingly harmless trick, nothing really. He crept into the boy's room whilst he slept...

And saw a jotunn with his brother's face, deep in slumber.

What a foolish disguise, he would decide. What a failing disguise that would doom the adopted heir should he take a wife..! Thor would come of age in but a few weeks... And so, Loki would create from a mix of Thor's own hair and that of their parents, a ribbon. An enchanted ribbon which would make things right... And though difficult to come about, he did so for naught and he did so without bringing awareness to the others. And upon the day of the celebration he approached Odin. He told Odin to remove the bracer, and leave the ribbon in its place. Odin agreed, under the condition that the charms of the bracelet be removed before entering the public eye.

Loki agreed. He offered to Thor something before the ceremony; proof that he was a warrior, worthy of the name 'Thor'. He tied a lock of hair with the ribbon. And before the ceremony start Odin removed the enchantments upon the bracer. And visibly, nothing happened, nothing changed.

The charm held. Thor would never remove the ribbon- and the tied lock of hair would remain as such. And to this day, this has not changed...

How fortunate, is it not?
Personality: To call Thor a jerkass would not be entirely inaccurate. To call him a jerk would still not be wholly inaccurate in fact, though the closer of descriptions would probably be a 'jerk with a heart of gold'.

Thor was raised away from the worst bits of the world, a fact his fater himself admits. Rather than reprimanding him at each needed point he waited for the teen to learn for himself, perhaps not the best of methods. It resulted in an insufferable prick to say the least, a boy who was so confident in his strength that he'd take offense the moment anyone stated otherwise.

And old habits die hard, you see. For although life's recent lessons struck a fierce blow against that attitude, there are still hefty shades of it remaining. True, against a fellow asgardian he's far less likely now to doubt their strength, and FAR less likely to throw a fit about it, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have pride in his own. His confidence can overshoot his ability very easily, and it'll often end with his foot in his mouth one way or another.

For all his zeal about being a brave warrior however, he knows there's a time and place. A life is not to be tossed away carelessly, nor is it something to take when possible. He's learned that the hard way, and it's affected him; and while he doesn't seem to be the type for depression, he can indeed have his bouts of silence when no one is looking. Because he's the Prince of Asgard, the golden one- there are expectations to uphold, and more importantly he refuses to burden others with worry over him.

He needs for them to not be worried. Because as stupidly proud as he is, he truly is a brave person. He truly feels the need to protect others, and to keep them from harm. He just gets his fat head in the way of the honorable part of it too much.
Powers: Toned down from what they would be, Thor should still be stronger than the average man, and just as more able to hold his liqor. He hasn't even gotten Mjolnir yet, so don't even think about thunderstorms!

As for being Jotunn, he wasn't a magical type. He was a warrior, and had he remained in Jotunnheim probably would have grown to be one himself. Not his fault he was runty by their standards- strength shows itself in more than just size after all, and he was a shining example of it. With the charm in place, he is effectively Asgardian however... But only in appearance.

He's convinced himself that what most consider cold would be cold. What most consider warm is merely warm, and not burning hot. This is what he tells himself, but being Jotunn in reality this is not the case; cold is not in fact cold, and the heat, in fact, is unbearable. But he won't show this, or tell anyone- it'll be apparent to those who look however.

Additionally, while travelling through Jotunnheim didn't do it, if he'd touched one of the giants directly he'd have 'gone blue' on contact. If there is a powerful enough blast of ice- for example, the force of Kyurem- it will turn back the power of the charm in his hair, and revert his form to that of a Jotunn.

First-Person Sample:

[Okay. He's figured out... Somethings. By this point. Most things. ...NONE OF THE THINGS.]

What a strange midgardian device this is... [He doesn't seem to realize it's on.]

But then, it seems everything about Midgard is different from last seen! To think such strange creatures would inhabit your realms! Such interesting tests of strength you have set in place for them!

[He laughs.]

I like it! I will humor your tests of battle prowess! If only because to test our own mettle would so clearly be unfair!

[WHAT IS MODESTY.]

Third-Person Sample:

He wakes up to the smell of grass and woods unlike that of Asgard itself. They smell strange. Different.

"Meeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhh!"

And there is a lamb licking his face. "Nsghgghh-!" Thor shook himself awake, blearily looking around. "...These are not my chambers..." He stands, apparently unaware of the small sheep at his feet. "...These are not any lands I am familiar with...!"

He brings his hand behind his back, the sensation of his clothes rather than bed-clothes giving him the affirmation he is at least armed.

Or is he? "AND WHERE IS MY BLADE...!?" No no no- "I have neither my blade nor any other weapon, what IS THIS..!"

"Meaaaaah!"

Well. The sheep before him manages to snap the blond from his growing rage, and he looks down. It has gold-white fleece, and blue skin... "...What manner of sheep are you..?"

"Meaaap." As he reaches a hand out it sparks- and he stares.

"Thunder..? You are a thundering sheep!" He grins, picking it up without further warning despite the mild shocks- but quickly dropping it after the sheep's suspiciously long tail smacks him in the chest.

Hard.

"UNF- And a hammering sheep..." Ow ow ow- "Hahahaha... You are like Father's Mjolnir..! The hammer he stores within the weaponry hall..!" Again the sheep is picked up. "I shall call you 'crusher'... MJOLNIR!"

"...Meeeeaaaaahhhh!"

SMACK.

And again the sheep (and Thor as well) goes down.

"Un... Yes... You are very much 'mjolnir'..."
