Daily Entertainment: Superstition Edition!

Happy (or not-so-happy) Friday the 13th, everyone!

In honour of that, I give you today's Daily Entertainment Offering.

Superstitions!

Is your character superstitious? If so, what about? If not, why?

For bonus points... what about you as a mun?

Well, that's not quite how I interpret the worldbuilding for Thor in-bar -- especially since he's purely from the movieverse, without comics mixed in. (Except occasionally as backstory where I think canon is highly unlikely to joss me, and even then I tend to rework it significantly. Comics Asgard and movie Asgard are significantly different, after all.) As I play him, he's an alien, not a god, and the Norse beliefs contain some truth and some fiction and some misunderstandings of what's actually true for Asgardians. I love folklore and religion, don't get me wrong, but I do feel that hewing too closely to the mythology will make me OOC for a pure-movieverse Thor, given that Marvel cheerfully throws so much out the window.

I've been very vague about the status and current physical existence of other pantheons in Marvel movieverse, just because I don't know what canon's going to say. I know it's different in the comics -- not to mention definitely different in real life!
