Hailstrum was a Frost Giant, a member of Laufey's army and easily one of the largest and strongest of his kind. He fought with Thor when he arrived along with Loki, Sif and the Warriors Three to invade his home Jotunheim, and managed to briefly keep the God of Thunder off-balance using his size and strength. However Thor eventually threw Mjølnir at Hailstrum, which crushed the Frost Giant's skull, killing him instantly.[4]
