==Background==
===Personality===
As one of the most skilled warriors in Asgard, Fandral is a serious man. He's loyal to his friend and fearful for his enemies, but he's extremely polite, even on the battlefield. Although he's often irritated by Volstagg's endless appetite, he'd give his life for his teammates.
===Powers and Abilities===
Fandral is a master swordsman, with centuries of experience in hand-to-hand combat and with the foil. Thor refers to Fandral as "the best of us with the blade. As an Asgardian, Fandral also possesses the physical attributes of an average Asgardian male; he possesses superhuman strength, speed, durability, stamina, and longevity. His dexterity, speed, and agility are all significantly greater than the average Asgardian male. However, despite his long life, he is not completely immune to death or aging. In addition, Fandral possesses a healing factor that enables him to recover from grievous injuries within a short time, depending on the damage degree. However, he isn't able to regenerate severed limbs or missing organs.

====Thor====
Thousands of years after the war between Asgard and Jotunheim, Odin would give way as King to his son, Thor (very despite the discontent of Loki). However, the ceremony was interrupted by Frost Giants who wanted to retrieve the Casket of Ancient Winters. This intrusion angered Thor who asked Fandral to accompany him to Jotunheim and put an end to the cold war between the two races. Fandral and others traveled to Jotunheim, even though they thought it was a bad idea. Here, they fought against Jotuns, who quickly surpassed in number and power. Fortunately for them, they were saved by Odin.
He watched as the all-father vanished Thor and send him to Earth. Days later and after Odin falls into Odinsleep, Fandral and his friends asked Loki to forgive Thor and allowed him to return from his exile. Loki refused this request since for him that would be the wish of his father. As Loki refused, Fandral and the others Warriors three and Sif traveled to Midgard, even though they knew that it could cause their banishment. Here, they revealed to Thor that his father was not dead, only sleeping, finding out that Loki was behind all this.

After the attack of the Dark Elves, Volstagg and Fandral informed Odin that their defenses were destroyed during the attack. That same night, Thor, Heimdall, and the Warriors three devised a plan to prevent another attack, which consisted to release Loki from prison and so he was able to help them to go to the land of the Dark Elves.

==Trivia==
*For the original Thor, Fandral was meant to be played by Stuart Townsend, who dropped out reportedly due to creative differences. Zachary Levi was meant to replace him, but he was busy filming his TV series Chuck, resulting in then unknown Josh Dallas playing him in the final film. By the time Thor: The Dark World entered production, Dallas was now too busy filming Once Upon a Time, but Chuck ended, allowing Levi to take over the role.
