As for his trouble I didn't mean make that sound like he has got anger management issues or is a bully I wanted that to represent his eagerness to test his mettle against a worthy foe or to protect his friend or an innocent. I should probably reword that.

Thanks for the suggestions I'll definitely work on that

As for the family vengeance thing its like this

In the background I'm working on Erlend Gunderson was born in Norway and grew up on the stories of the Norse gods that his grandfather insisted were all true. He naturally gravitated towards the Asatru religion that his grandfather believed in. When he came of age he became a priest of Asatru. Erlend's wife and son were killed in a car accident. His faith was shaken by their loss. After their funeral he climbed the galdhopiggen Mountains and screamed to the sky for a sign from Odin that his life had not been wasted believing the stories of the Norse gods. A enormous impact struck the mountainside and Thrudstok odins Uru mace was in a crater not twenty feet from where he knelt. When he touched Thrudstok power flowed through him and he was given a terrible vision of his family being forced off the road by a were-wolf. He swore an oath to strike down the beast named Skoll or die trying. He was then instructed in the use of runic magic to find the beast and the Cult of Fenrir.  A group of Were-wolves that Skoll lead. He has been hunting them ever since.

Its a work in progress still hammering some of the details out

Hey looking for some help for a character i'm working on for whatever reason i just can't seem to wrap my head around invoking aspects. I have his aspects down I think the problem is coming up with Ideas to invoke them. I'm having a brain block or something lol. BTW if you see anything I screwed up plz let me know thanks

Item of power
Description: Thrudstok the Uru mace of Odin
Musts: You must have an aspect related to your possession of this item.
Skills Affected: Weapons
Effects:
[-0] Purpose. To champion Odin’s cause and serve the Aesir. If the wielder is not worthy, Thrudstok returns to Odin.
[-0] It Is What It I:. A weapon 2 mace.
[-0] Unbreakabl:. As an Item of Power, this item cannot be broken except with a magical ritual predicated upon perverting its purpose.
+2 Item of power: Thrudstok channels an infinitesimal portion of Odin’s power to his champion granting the following abilities.
-1 Marked by power:  Erlend is marked as a champion of Odin.
-2 Inhuman Strength: Odin grants his champion a prodigious strength.
-2 Inhuman Toughness: (+2 physical stress and Armor:1) Odin imbues his champion with the ability to shake off many attacks that would wound or slay a mortal otherwise.
+2 The Catch (Fire) Odin’s champion is not immune to mundane and magical fire.
0 All seeing eye of Odin (Cassandra tears): When it behooves Odin to do so he grants his champion the power to pierce the veil of time to see events of the future.
-1 (Mortal stunt) Clever wrestling: You've wrestled against incredibly strong things before and you know how to handle it. When grappling with something with a strength power half their bonus to might and round down.

Thrudstok is powerless once per year during the week long Odinsleep.

Name: Bernard Francis Desmarais
High concept: Knight of the Autumn court
Trouble: The Summer court wants me dead
Aspects:
Guile and subterfuge are tools of the trade
Trust is earned not given
An oath given is an oath kept (he is very reluctant to give his word because he always keeps)
A knight stands firm against his enemies
The end justify the means
