Reputation
Loki has been saddled with the reputation of being a Trickster, the God of Chaos and deceit for nearly 2 millennia. That's one hell of a reputation.
Biography
Adopted as an infant by Odin and Frigga (spoils of war with the Jotun, the Frost Giants), Loki grew up in Thor's shadow. Instead of showing a proficiency in fighting like his brother, he was far better in the art of sorcery. That, he learned from his adopted mother Frigga- as well as the art of war.
Through the centuries, he has visited 'Midgard', and has been worshipped as both God and cursed as devil. Either way, stories have grown around his early deeds; mostly told by drunk Vikings. (Thanks, guys.)

Character Details
Loki is a sociopath of the purest form. He is so far removed from the concerns of mortality that he doesn't even consider death to be an option. As for governments? Laws? Rising and falling, it has absolutely no consideration for him. He is, in his mind, a god. Immortal.
Loki isn't that simple, however. He is an emotional creature, always searching for the true meanings behind words. He can laugh, he can cry.. and there is anger, bitterness and resentment that can come quickly on the heels of happiness, and of contentment. He wants to be liked, but on his terms.
Sorcery |
Loki has learned from the best, and has killed at least one of his mentors after learning all he could. From divination to illusions, magical shields and weapons, Loki can take anything and make it magical, or in turn, take something that holds some magic and render it useless. (For the higher magicked stuff, it'd take him quite some time to learn its magic before he can pull it.) His current favourite is creating illusions. (That just never gets old!) |
Combat |
While not a warrior of Asgard, his skill with weapons is still formidable. Having learned most of his technique from his adopted mother, his style is a great deal more like the Valkyries of olde than of the Warriors of Asgard. Light, fast, his attacks are more feints as deception is his main tactic. He is as deadly with a dagger as with a sword or staff. While guns are not out of the question, they are not his 'go to' weapon of choice. He much prefers the close, personal touch. |
Shapeshifting |
Loki has the ability to truly become anything else, with all inherent abilities. If he shifts to a dragon form, he is that dragon. If he shifts to a puppy, he is… a puppy. Current science cannot discern which is the true beast and which is the shapeshifted Asgardian. |
Regeneration |
Loki has the ability heal almost any wound and quickly. Lop off a hand, and it returns. Cuts, stabs.. heal with remarkable speed. |
Advanced Physiology |
Born a Frost Giant and raised as an Aesir, Loki has the strength, stamina, toughness, dexterity and speed of both. He has no need of food and drink in any real portion, and sleep is long in coming. He can actually lift cars easily (though he doesn't), he can go for days at speed without need of rest, bullets do not harm him, and his agility and speed are on the level of other Asgardian- pretty darn quick. |
Deceit and Lies |
Loki is a silver-tongued creature. He can make a lie sound like truth, and deception the proper path. Even Odin himself, when in court, will not allow Loki to speak in proper fear that even he, too, may fall under the sway of his half-truths, and omissions. He is, after all, the God of Lies. |
Astral Projection |
Loki is able to project himself astrally, and while doing so, his body lies virtually comatose and vulnerable. |
Eldred |
Having apprenticed to a sorcerer of the same name, Loki bested the mage and took over his realm. While it's not much, Eldred is a small rock just outside the Nine Realms. He has a castle there, and all those that live there are loyal to their new King. The resources that can be found on that small world are more than enough to make the Prince of Asgard 'comfortable' wherever he may choose to call 'home'. |
Godspeak |
Loki has the ability to understand any language and be understood. Mind, he doesn't -speak- the language, but when he does talk, he does so in the person's native language. Or rather, the person perceives that it is. He can neither read nor write those languages, however. |
Laevateinn |
The sword mentioned in the Poetic Edda: Fjölsvinnsmál. It is sword that Loki himself made and later gave to Hel for safekeeping. It is a magical sword, runes carved in and is tied to him, and him only. It takes the shape of whatever it is its Master desires, and is stronger yet than Asgardian steel. It is so bonded to him that Loki knows where it is at any given moment and, like Mjolnir, can call to it and it will eventually appear. |
Illiterate |
…in Midgardian languages. He can 'speak' them, or rather, has the Aesir gift to being understood by all when desired, but he can neither read nor write them. It's not that he hasn't had time to learn, but more like… it's beneath him. He has followers to do that for him. |
Notoriety |
Loki has had a couple thousand years to rack up a reputation, and for good or ill, he's got one. Anyone who has such interest in mythology would know the name Loki and undoubtedly associate it with 'Trickster'. Most assume the worst when one hears of his deeds only because, well, they're his deeds. |
Shapeshifting |
It bears repeating that Loki becomes the creature that he shifts in to, with all abilities, and vulnerabilities. |
Flattery |
Loki is a sucker for flattery. It's not often that someone is genuinely complimentary, and it takes him by surprise. Given the rarity, curiosity reigns and he'll try and work out why. He does have the capacity to discern lies, however. Once he learns what it is he wants, the chances are good that he'll be finished with the person. |
God of Chaos |
Loki can't help it. Chaos is something that is needed, craved. It is the perfect state from which all things can come, the expected and the un-. He is, therefore, a chaotic creature and serves only himself. He can be a friend in one breath, an enemy in the next only to emerge on the other side as something else all together. Loki hates to be predictable, and yet moves with a hidden purpose towards an end that only Loki can fathom. There is often a brilliance to his actions, that is only revealed at a much later date as all the random threads come together. |
Driven |
Loki has demons that drive him borne of all the perceived slights and rejections over the years. He's bitter, envious, angry, resentful… and all equals a need to prove himself. To gain a proper throne, and it doesn't matter where. Or how. |

Thor |
Brother |
Sometimes my best friend, sometimes my worst enemy. Always my brother. |
|
Sif |
Friend, after a fashion |
We've had something of a history. Not all good, but not all bad. As my brother's friend, however, she's certainly a potential obstacle to my ultimate plans. |

Remaking his acquaintence. |

Ally |
'Catch a mutant by the tail'. She's intriguing, this mutant. Intelligent and resourceful. I believe that she is the one creature that can help me the most in my endeavors. Until she is no longer useful. |

Emma |
Acquaintance |
Self-styled queen? Really. Should be interesting to see how far her 'kingdom' spans. |
Notes
"So let's talk about Magic. We can dicker on the exact rules, if you'd like. There are all sorts of Grimoires and Crytonomicrons. I've got an AD&D Manual somewhere. At the core though…magic is taking a thought and making it real. Taking a Lie and making it the Truth. Telling a story to the universe so utterly, cosmically perfect that for a single, shining moment…the world believes a man can FLY. — 'Loki: Agent of Asgard'
