Jane Foster
25
10When Jane Foster was young, her father had passed away, and not too long later, her mother Elaine became terminally ill. Before passing, Foster's mother told her not to be afraid, as even with both her parents gone, she wouldn't be alone, and that she should always keep fighting. Foster was a student at Culver University, where her father and Erik Selvig worked together. She later graduated and became an astronomer, dedicating her life to her research, where she built most of her equipment herself. Sometime after her graduation from Culver University, Foster began studying a mysterious weather event that she believed was linked to an Einstein-Rosen Bridge. Accompanied by Selvig and their intern Darcy Lewis, Foster travelled to the source of the anomalies, which was out in the desert surrounding Puente Antiguo, New Mexico. While conducting field research in Puente Antiguo, New Mexico, Jane's team accidentally ran into Thor Odinson with their research van. Thor had just been stripped of his powers and banished to Earth by Odin. As she helped him navigate Earth and attempt to retrieve his hammer, Mjolnir, the two fell in love. After Thor defeated Loki and destroyed the Bifrost Bridge to save Jotunheim, Jane was left stranded on Earth, dedicating her work to finding a way back to him. While investigating a spatial anomaly in London, Jane inadvertently discovered a hidden portal and became the host body for the Aether, an ancient weapon later revealed to be the Reality Stone. Following the battle, Jane and Thor lived together on Earth, primarily in New York. However, due to Thor's responsibilities with the Avengers and Jane's demanding career, their relationship fractured. They underwent a mutual, bitter breakup around 2015. Jane went on to win a Nobel Prize for her work in astrophysics. Years later, in 2022, Jane travelled to New Asgard, drawn by a mystical pull from the shattered remnants of Mjolnir, which Thor had previously enchanted to protect her.
