Volstagg’s exact weight is a tightly held secret in the circles of Asgard, but may be safely said to be over one ton, depending on whether he has just walked away from a big meal or not. His flesh provides Excellent rank protection against physical and energy attacks.

History
Long ago, by Asgardian time; Volstagg was among the most powerful fighters in the land, earning him the title "Lion of Asgard". Many centuries of feasting and drinking have spread his waistline, if not his fame, to even greater dimensions. He still asserts himself to be one of the premier warriors of Asgard, but in combat he seeks less-strenuous forms of conflict than direct attack. When storming a castle, for example, his first point of attack is the larder, to see if any enemies are hiding among the breads, cheeses, and meats. Volstagg is no coward, however, nor is he unwilling to confront opponents, as many a young Asgardian gallant has discovered when he challenged the Lion and was sat upon after a short scuffle. In a short trip to Earth, Volstagg made the acquaintance of the children in the Power Pack, and he knows their true identities. He has also adopted into his large and child-filled home two Earth boys who lost their mother to an enemy of Thor. Volstagg has a large family, and though he loves each and every one of them a great deal, he finds that he must escape domestic confines in the cause of high adventure. Of course, he must explain this to his wife upon his return
