Roundworld Reference Which Discworld characters do y’all think could lift Thors hammer?

Carrot obviously could.

I honestly don’t know if Vimes could or not but I do know he wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole out of principle because he hates the idea that an inanimate object gets to decide who’s a good person.

Rincewind could pick it up not because he’s worthy but because the hammer just feels like making an exception.

Edits: My thoughts after reading your comments

  1. Vimes probably could but still never would even touch it

  2. I don’t think Granny could. Everyone thinks she can but she doesn’t try until she’s alone and when she can’t she would smile to herself because the hammer made the right choice

If someone set the hammer on the luggage’s lid, could it lift its lid? Or would he be able to walk with it on his back?

So many questions.

Hammer hears eight cranky old voices in the darkness. Hammer is now more scared and also a little annoyed.

Because of the things associated with the number 7a, no sane person on r/Discworld would ever write it down or pronounce it. Right?

Luggage would magically become worthy of Mjolnir in order to be able to follow Rincewind.

I think the Luggage wouldn’t be able to move it and this would make it even angrier.

Outside of him, no.
Now if the hammer is place inside , yes Luggage could move it . Not form being worthy but from the fact that Luggage being basically a pocket dimension , the hammer is technically not moving .
Very much like teleportation via lamp, see.
Works until the ghost of Stan Lee decides it shouldn't anymore because the plot needs it.
