Loki



Loki=is the wily trickster god of Norse mythology.
http://norse-mythology.org/gods-and-creatures/the-aesir-gods-and-goddesses/loki/

Is handsome and fair of face, but has an evil disposition and is very changeable of mood. He excelled all men in the art of cunning, and he always cheats. He was continually involving the Aesir in great difficulties and he often helped them out again by guile.
He has the ability to change into any shape, an ability he uses a lot. He was accepted into the ranks of the gods by becoming Odin’s blood brother. In his earlier days in Asgard he followed Odin and Haeni, sometimes also Thor.
He often got the gods into serious trouble because of his shortsightedness. However, he was remarkably successful at making things right, after the gods had threatened him. Loki’s wife is called Sygin and is the sweetest and most loyal of all women. Their son’s are called Vali and Nari. But Loki had more off springs. But his most famous offsprings, which he had with a troll woman, are the wolf Fenrir, the serpent of Midgard and the goddess of death, Hel. He’s still important today because Tricksters give bravery that others wouldn’t generally do it makes life not boring because we would all have boring lives.
