Dynamite Thor was highly motivated to do good and become a hero. However, he had difficulty thinking through the consequences of his actions, being blind to how destructive his explosion-based gimmick was and how inefficient he was at stopping crime.

Thereafter, he had a childlike enthusiasm for [[Pride Month|Pride]] and other displays of queerness, quickly bonding with [[Jenny Over-There]] over their shared orientation.

According to the [[Fourth Wall Awareness|meta-aware]] [[The Man in Grey|Man in Grey]], Thor had once been [[copyright]]ed, being “bound” to the “[[Fox universe]]”.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[Open Sourcing (short story)|Open Sourcing]]'') He once noted that he never travelled to [[Wales]] in his home universe. In his original universe, he was a wealthy man, owning and operating a mining company, but he was ultimately ousted by his own shareholders, who had him declared mad for his destructive attempts to become a superhero using his resilience to explosions.

He was familiar with [[Jenny Everywhere]], [[Jenny Nowhere]], [[Jenny Somewhere]], and also [[Jenny Over-There]] and her [[Multidimensional Finders Service]]. On multiple occasions, he phoned the M.F.S. for help locating criminals that he could fight, although his question was too vague for Over-There to usually give her a useful answer. However, she was able to help him on one occasion when, shortly after one of his calls, she received a call from [[Robber (The Tribulations of Jenny Over-There)|a robber]] who was in the middle of committing a bank robbery.

He later tried to apply when the Multidimensional Finders Service opened up slots for new hires. Rejected on the basis that they exclusively wanted open-source applicants, he tried again later in the day by tossing a bomb at candidate [[Captain Omega]], slowing him down as he stopped to defuse it, and then showed up to his appointment in his stead, claiming to be Captain Omega himself. Jenny and the Man in Grey immediately recognised him. Panicking, he threw what he thought was a “smoke grenade” to the floor, hoping to make a quick escape, but it was actually a real grenade — although no one was injured in the blast. Taking pity on the hapless hero after he apologised for this incident, Jenny ended up helping him get a new job as an intern at the M.F.S. office.

At some point shortly before or shortly after this, he discovered that he was asexual. He became very excited when, with [[Pride Month]] approaching, [[the Man in Grey]] asked him to decorate the M.F.S. office fittingly. Finding the Man's stock of decorations less than enthusing, he and Jenny travelled into the town looking for better ones and found [[Professor Helvetius's Convenient Pride Decorations Shop]], where they found a great number of flags and other decoration. When they brought them back to the office, however, they found the Man in Grey waiting for them, put in a very bad mood by his dismissal from the [[Interdimensional Pride Council]] over having tried to sell out to a number of unethical sponsors. He forbade Thor and Jenny from decorating the office at all, greatly distressing Thor. | |||
Seeing how much his first official Pride Month meant to her new friend, Jenny suggested that they use the stock of decorations to throw their own party, which they spent a week planning, using Helvetius's interdimensional, bigger-on-the-inside shop as a venue. The party lived up to his hopes and he had a great time, dancing wildly and socialising with other superheroes present, such as [[the Red Hot Roach]], [[Supertrans]], and [[the Invisible Pink Unicorn]].
