2. He Has A Goat-Powered Chariot

Even though the God of Thunder can fly, he's still in need of a lift now and then. Said lift typically takes the form of Thor's Chariot, which is driven by two magical, giant goats: Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder.

Apart from the fact that, y'know, those are the two best names for a pair of goats anyone is ever going to think of, Thor's ride is beneficial in a whole host of different ways. It's speedy, offers him a way of getting around when Mjolnir isn't about and, most importantly, gives him the option of two giant goats as backup for when the going gets ugly.

Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder might be the unsung heroes of Asgard for now, but if Mjolnir truly is gone for good come Ragnarok, expect to see them make an appearance further down the line.
