I tend to not go near him, even with a ten foot pole. I'll occaisionally have a beer with Loki, but other than that, I stick with the Aesir and Vanir.

I know people always tend to gravitate towards the 'forbidden' god/desses, but fenrir just doesn't seem the type to do anything for you. Not even something malicious, he, IMO, just wouldn't care. And a doubt the sacrifice of a hand is necessary, as Tyr did that to bind fenrir, not empower him.

I don't really think I would want to "get" anything out of him.
He just seems interesting.

Sorry, I must have gotten a little confused by your title.
Okay, I personally, have not had any experiences with him, but this guy has. www.cauldronfarm.com/jotunbok/index.html
check out the entry Trolltryggr, and there's an entry under Fenris. And a little farther down there's Bindings, a poem about the same. I do agree, though, that Fenris is an interesting character, and there doesn't seem to be much about him, and (at least in the flimsy lorebook I'm waving around right now) no explanation for how he gained the traits that made the gods wish to bind him. (apparently he was just born ravenous, which, IMHO, doesn't just happen. Not even to jotuns.)

Fenrir... Chaos... Chaos... Fenrir... Tyr... Order... Order... Tyr...
Perhaps Fenrir can be invoked to inspire great upheavals?

I dont know, but I think fenrir is simply cool too. I also think fenrir/fenris was bound because of a prophecy he was going to cause ragnarok, and the fall of the elder? gods. Not sure tho.

We've got a big family black and white picture to get taken in a few skf bearing cross reference weeks, I've gotta wear a white top and black pants. I've got really fair skin and real dark hair and medium brownish/greenish koyo bearing cross reference eyes. I usually do purple around my eyes when SKF ball bearing thrust I'm getting dressed up but I don't know what to do timken bearing interchange because I don't want the darker color to make me look like a raccoon in the black and ina needle roller bearings white picture... Suggestions?

No such thing as a pointless deity.

He was bound (by a chain made of items that don't exist, such as the breath of a fish) because he was getting too big and out of control, and numerous divinations had said that he would be nothing but trouble for æsene.
When ragnarok comes, Fenrisulven will break from the chain and the sword that keeps him in his place, and he will eat Odin.
There would be nothing to gain in working with Fenrisulven. He won't protect you, he will just cause mischief, and you won't have the power to keep him under control.
PS: Tyr didn't bind him, he just put his hand in his mouth because of a deal they made, and fenrisulven tried to break from the chains but he couldn't, and Tyr lost his arm.

Whilst I agree with a lot of what is said in this thread, i.e. the points that Fenrir will not really help you with spells or protect you or stuff, he is still a valid deity. He represents, to me at least, the inexorable drive towards entropy. He is the force that makes the mountains crumble and the valleys fill, he is the chaotic devourer upon the land (as Iormungand is of the sea and Hel is of the soul). He is a wild and untamed natural force, bound by the gods to slow the course of entropy and the coming of Ragnarok. But he can only be slowed never stopped.
Not every working we do with a deity needs result in a material gain or protection. You can invoke Fenris, possibly as part of a seething, to feel the wild within. Just because by his very nature you cannot hope to ever control him or permenantly contain him doesn't mean he doesn't have his uses. Yes he is unlikely to assist in most operations, and there are no real 'Goetic' style curses for the Norse gods (you can try and bind him with runes but why bother when he's already bound by the roots of a mountain and other funky stuff). But as I said before he is a wild force of entropy, bound but not forever, I'm sure he'd gladly ride you for a while if it meant he could escape his chains for a little. Just pick your intent wisely and let it roll.
I take no responisibilty for hang-overs, full stomachs, missing cats in the neighbourhood or bits of fur between your teeth after invoking Fenrir.

Re: Has anybody worked with fenrir?
When you can cut the hairs of a maiden's beard that is part of what binds him, then you could set him free. But, what would the father of werewolves and lord of berserkers have to deal with you?
Re: Has anybody worked with fenrir?
No. An enemy of the holy ones is an enemy of mine. I am fascinated by Fenrir in a sense but I do not worship him. He is a being that I have a hard time trusting.
