Frigg (sometimes anglicized as Frigga in other versions), is the Norse Aesir Goddess of Prophecy, Marriage and Fertility and the Queen of Asgard. She is the wife of Odin.
History
Death of Balder
When her son, Balder, had nightmares about his own death, she went to every living thing in the Nine Worlds to have them promise not to hurt her son. She has the word of everything in creation except mistletoe. Loki then tricked Hod into throwing a mistletoe dart at Balder, therefore killing him.
In the Series
When her daughter, Mallory Keen was unknowingly tricked into installing a bomb on a school bus by Loki in 1972, Frigg appeared in the form as an old lady and convinced Mallory to disarm the bomb and gave her two knives so she would be accepted into Valhalla.
Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard
The Sword of Summer
Loki mentions the Queen of Asgard when he was explaining to Magnus Chase about how and why he was in his current situation due to how he killed Balder.
The Hammer of Thor
The Ship of the Dead
When Mallory sees the old lady who was there on her death, she runs off to pursue her. Magnus, Samirah and Mallory followed the old lady into a train carriage. Mallory, who thought the old lady was Loki, threatens her, but Samirah tells Mallory that it's not Loki. The old lady then reveals herself as Frigg and tells Mallory that she is her mother. Mallory is outraged that Frigg would choose to reveal herself only now, but Frigg told her that she always loved her. She then explains that she can see into the future and predicted everything that would've led up to now. Frigg explains to the three what they must do to get Kvasir's Mead, and gives Mallory a walnut which would trap Loki.
Abilities
As Queen of the Norse Gods, Frigg posses incredible and supreme power though not quite on par with her husbands. She is considered, by many, to be the true power and mind behind the throne.
- Hyetokinesis: As the goddess of rain she has absolute and divine control over it. She literally knits new clouds.
- Persuasion - Frigg was able to convince all things, bar mistletoe, to never harm Balder implying a persuasive nature. This is more then likely what makes her the power behind the throne.
Advanced Intellect- Frigg is an incredible thinker, a facet of her self that plays heavy on her position as the Queen.
- Precognition: As goddess of prophecy, Frigg can see into the future.
