LOKI
LOKI -- God of Fire and Trickery
Aliases: Logi
Loki, the trickster, the shapeshifter, is pleasing to gaze upon and questionable in character. They are cunning without a doubt, shifting gender on a whim, and often found to be in the direst of trouble, but it is their undeniable quick wit that allows them to save their neck. Blood-brother to Odin, child of giants, Loki is the father of monsters — Fenrir, the great wolf; Jörmungandr, the World Serpent; and, it is rumored, Hel, Goddess of Death — and mother to Sleipnir, the eight-legged stallion that is Odin’s steed. The stories say they will be bound in a cavern with poison ever dripping into their eyes because of the betrayals they’ve committed, and that they will side with the Titans at the end of the World. Yet while Loki gets themself into trouble frequently, and endangers the Æsir constantly, they are — for now — ever on the side of their tribe.
When Logi, the true God of Fire, bested Loki in an eating contest by burning the contents (including the platter) as he ate, Loki became enraged and called him a cheater. Yet they eventually tricked Logi into consuming himself, and stole the God’s mantle, even stealing Logi’s wife Glöð as well. Careful, sometimes cowardly, this God is the sly undercover agent, the politician that oozes charisma, and the seductress that can manipulate anyone to kneel at her feet. Passionate, with a belly full of fire, Loki will achieve any goal they set their mind to, and they will do anything to twist fate to their whim.
In the modern day, Loki is a handsome, charming man with flame-red hair or an imposing and powerful woman, and sometimes something other or in-between. No matter their gender, Loki always has a devilish smile and twinkling eyes, imparting lessons and humility with equal measure. Their Scions find these lessons are without prejudice, but rarely without danger. They will place them upon anyone at any time, and their victims must endure their fickle nature, for the art of the double-cross comes naturally to Loki. Yet if their children earn loyalty, Loki will remain to guide them for as long as they serve Loki’s needs.
