His Egyptian equivalent is Naunet who is also depicted as a giant sea snake surrounding the world.That is a symbol in Gnosticism representing the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. The way Jormungand bites his tail is similar to the Ouroboros.During Ragnarök, the World Serpent is destined to be killed by Thor, yet his venom will also kill the latter shortly thereafter.This poison is deadly enough to kill Thor. Poison Generation: Jormungand is able to generate poison and spit it from his mouth.Ran stated that if Jormungand truly awakes, he will generate tsunamis and tidal waves big enough to destroy Boston. Massive Strength: Due to his massive size, Jormungand is incredibly strong, enough to trade blows with Thor himself, who is stated to be one of the strongest norse gods.The serpent's teeth gleamed in rows of perfect white triangles, with his pink maw being big enough to swallow Harald’s 20-foot-long boat and a dozen of Harald’s closest friends’ boats simultaneously. When Jormungand opened his mouth, the stench of serpent poison was so strong that Magnus' clothes smoked. His eyes resemble huge green spotlights the size of trampolines, while his irises glow so intensely, that Magnus was certain that everything he saw for the rest of his life would be tinted the colour of lime jelly. His ridged forehead and tapered snout make him look more like an eel than a snake, however. In The Sword of Summer, Jormungand is described as a gigantic serpent with his scaled hide glistening in a camouflage patchwork of green, brown and yellow. However, he was not completely awake to destroy the world. Magnus Chase and Samirah al-Abbas get Jormungand's attention (further intending to get the attention of Ran) by throwing a bull's head into the ocean. Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard The Sword of Summer Jormungand's arch-enemy is the god Thor, destined to kill each other during Ragnarök.

Jormungard was born to Loki and Angrboða along with Fenris Wolf and Hel.
