法夫納(Fafnir),也拼为Fáfnir、Frænir,又名法夫尼爾、法芙尼爾。是北歐神話中的一名侏儒,之後化身為龍,法夫納主要出現在《詩體埃達》(Poetic Edda)、《散文埃達》(Prose Edda)、《》及《尼伯龍根之歌》(Nibelungenlied)中。此外,在華格納的歌劇《尼伯龍根的指環》中,依然以法夫納之名登場,但身份被改成巨人。 他是赫瑞德瑪(Hreidmar)的長子,歐特(Otr)和雷金(Regin)的兄弟,故事中提到赫瑞德瑪因為兒子歐特被洛基(Loki)殺害,而要求巨额]的賠償,洛基便強奪了另一名侏儒安德瓦利(Andvari)的寶藏來償還;安德瓦利因此詛咒不論是誰持有寶藏中的戒指安德華拉諾特(Andvarinaut),都會招來無限的災禍。 而受到龐大財富誘惑的法夫納,不僅殺害父親赫瑞德瑪,還變成一條巨龍守護財寶。法夫納逼迫弟弟雷金離開住所,雷金只好到人類的世界去。之後,雷金唆使英雄齊格魯德(Sigurd)殺掉法夫納,還幫他將格拉墨(Gram)的斷片重新打造成一隻完整的寶劍,齊格魯德就利用格拉墨殺死了法夫納。法夫納在臨死前,警告齊格魯德這些財寶是被詛咒過的,但齊格魯德沒有聽從而帶走寶藏,因此也受到詛咒而展開他悲劇性的一生。
