Loki {loh'-kee} is the trickster god who is always causing mischief
and always scheming.
In Norse mythology Loki was the spirit of strife and envy. The son
of a giant, he lived among the gods at Asgard, where he continually caused
them trouble but aided them with his cunning. After he contrived the death
of Balder, however, the gods chained him to a rock below a serpent whose
mouth dripped venom. Loki's wife, Siguna, caught the drops in a cup, but
when she turned away to empty it the venom fell on Loki's face and he writhed
in anguish, causing earthquakes. Loki was to remain bound until the final
battle of Ragnarok, in which he would lead the forces of evil against the
gods. However he managed to escape his bondage.
Loki how ether has done some good deeds. The helping with the wall
of Asgard being just one of them. As well as being the god of mischief
and magic he is also associated with evil by many mortals who fail to fully
understand him.
Loki is the son of Odin and a Giantess. His half brother is Thor
and the two consider each other enemies.
Roleplaying Notes
Loki is one of the most unpredictable gods among the pantheon. One
day he can be acting against the other gods and looking for a way to further
his own power, the next he can be acting in the aid of the gods. He will
never let up a chance to further his own power however. He is known to
be very sociable and have a good sense of humour and this often disarms
man and god alike. Thor never falls for this. Loki is a master of disguise
and has many forms.
