Loki

Loki is a figure of Norse mythology. He is a god or jötunn (giant or ettin) or both.

Biography
Loki's interaction with the gods depends on the source. He sometimes assists them and other times is against them. He is a shapeshifter, taking on the forms of a salmon, a mare, a seal, a fly, and possibly an elderly woman named Þökk.

Several theories of Loki have been made including: Eventually, Loki is bound by the gods with the entrails of his sons. The goddess Skaði also places a serpent above him from which venom drips. His wife, Sigyn, collects it in a bowl to spare him the pain, but every time she must remove it to empty it, Loki writhes in pain, causing earthquakes.
 * he was a god of fire
 * a variation of Lucifer from Christianity
 * he is a hypnotist
 * he is a trickster figure
 * he was a spider

It is foretold that Loki will eventually free himself and fight against the gods on the side of the jötnar. In that battle, he will meet the god, Heimdallr. The two will slay each other.

Role in Evermagic
In the world of Evermagic, Loki is also Rumpelstiltskin. He is a god who is a trickster and Master of the guild White Tiger. He often shapeshifts to disguise himself, the form depending on his purpose for interacting with an individual.

Like other gods in Evermagic, Loki is able to time travel and often uses it to his advantage. He entrusts assignments linked to his mastery over time jumping to only a few within his guild. Any others that are involved with his mastery over it are a special circumstance. He often works with The Spirit King but few others.

His spirit manifests as a flame.

He has not yet met his wife, Sigyn.
