## Biography

### Early Life

Thor was born in Asgard. Through as of yet unknown means, Thor would be sent to Earth under the mortal guise of **Dr. Donald Blake** with no memory of his history as Thor.

As Blake, Thor opened up a medical practice and took on Jane Foster as a nurse. The two had feelings for each other.

### Kronan Invasion

Dr. Donald Blake was vacationing in Norway when news of Aliens reached the town he was staying. Blake decided to investigate and eventually found them. Blake made too much noise which alerted the aliens, known as Kronans, to his presence. Blake attempted to escape, however his bum leg made him extremely slow. Blake attempted to hide in a cave, but there was no exit and he was trapped. Blake found a secret chamber with a strange old staff in it, deciding to use it to move a boulder that blocked a potential exit. The boulder did not budge, and in a rage Blake hit the boulder with the staff and transformed him into Thor. Thor exited the cave, however he still had Blake's memories. Thor sat down and put his hammer, Mjolnir, aside wile he pondered what to do because of his transformation. Thor suddenly detransformed back into Blake, which he realized was because he had let Mjolnir down for too long and needed to continuosly hold it to stay transformed as Thor. Thor then began testing out his abilities and realized that he could use Mjolnir to switch between forms at will.

Thor then fought with the Kronans and effortlessly defeated them, causing the Kronans to flee back to their homeworld. NATO arrived but were too late, however the only thing they witnessed was Blake.

### San Diablo Civil War

Blake returned to the New York City, and began operating his medical practice once again. Jane explained to him that a violent civil war in the nation of San Diablo had broken out between a Democratic side and a Communist side led by a warlord known as the Executioner. A program for doctors to volunteer there services in San Diablo was enacted with Donald and Jane volunteered.

On the boat ride to San Diablo, Blake expressed his regret for bringing Jane with him as he feared that she could be endangered, although Jane brushed those concerns away. The ship the doctors were on was then bombed by the Exceutioner's planes and Blake turned into Thor in order to combat the planes. Thor then dove in the water and reverted into Blake and acted as though he had been knocked overboard. The crew of the ship then saved Blake.

The doctors' convoy was then attacked by more of the Executioner's troops, but Blake turned into Thor to keep them at bay. In the attack, Jane was captured by the troops who gave Thor an ultimatium, if he does not stop fighting then Jane would be killed. Thor then flew away, and Jane was brought to the Executioner's base. Having returned to his Blake form, Don was captured, brought to the base, and the Executioner was prepared to have him executed, although he promised to spare him if Jane agreed to marry him. Mjolnir (still in it's cane disguise) was taken from Blake, but Blake managed to trick the Executioner into giving it back. Blake then caused a flash of light and transformed to defeat the soldiers. In the conflict, the Executioner attempted to flee with the army's gold but was killed by his own troops to prevent that from happening. Jane and Blake then reunited and began helping the sick and injured in San Diablo, before returning home to New York.

### Return of Loki

One day, Thor was entertaining children at a hospital. Some time later, Blake and Jane were doing a house call and after completing the job, they began returning to the office. On the way to the office, three people randomly transformed into negatives. Blake snuck away and turned into Thor to cure them. Thor was then confronted by a man who revealed himself to be Loki and challenge him to a duel and the two began fighting in the air.

During the battle, Loki hypnotized Thor and forced him to cast away Mjolnir however Thor was unable to because of an enchantment made by Odin. Loki then tricked Thor into reliquishing it by creating a double of Thor. Loki then tasked Thor with freeing the animals in a nearby zoo, however a minute passed and Thor reverted back into Blake. Blake then grabbed Mjolnir once again and retransformed into Thor without being hypnotized. Loki attempted to escape using a flock of birds. Thor gave chase to Loki, however Loki attempted to escape through a theater and then the subway. Running through the subway, Loki pushed several people into the tracks as a train approached, forcing Thor to move to save them. Loki then gave life to a mechanical pegasus and rather than escape he began smashing shops before attempting to leave.

Thor then threw a pipe at Loki which knocked him into the water. Loki nearly drowned, however Thor saved him, tied Loki to his hammer, and threw it all the way to Asgard to deliver Loki into the custody of Odin, Mjolnir then returned to Thor. Blake then rejoined Jane and listened as she gushed over the prospect of two gods fighting on Earth.
