I recall Althjof the Thief's antics. He understood one of the most important rules of resistance: you don't always need to win major battles. You just need to inconvenience your invaders.
Althjof was a Dwarven Thief, living in Svartalfheim who constantly rallied against the Aesir until his demise.

God of War: Ragnarök[]
Not much is actually known about the male dwarf Althjof, but you can find a special artifact belonging to her during your journey, which in turn will unlock a special journal entry saying this about him, "I recall Althjof the Thief's antics. He understood one of the most important rules of resistance: you don't always need to win major battles. You just need to inconvenience your invaders. Before Svartalfheim voluntarily bent the knee to Asgard, Odin sent a detachment of Einherjar as a gentle show of force. There wasn't a day that went by where I didn't hear about missing bags of grain or pilfered armor. Or, in this case, treasured valuables stolen away before they could be returned to Asgard. Unlike most thieves I've known, he stole not for the thrill nor the payoff, but simply to irritate the Einherjar. And it worked! Until they laid a trap for him, caught him, and hanged him with a length of rope he'd been attempting to steal."
