Tom "life ruiner" Hiddleston as Loki
----
Now, let's talk about my fav Norse god ever:
Loki who in Norse mythology, is one of the major deities, is a son of the giant Farbauti and the giantess Laufey.
Loki's relation with the gods varies by source, sometimes assists the gods and sometimes causes problems for them.
Loki is Connected with fire and magic and he's a shape shifter: in separate incidents he appears in the form of a salmon, mare, seal, a fly, and possibly an elderly woman.
He's crafty and malicious, but is also heroic. The ambivalent god grows progressively more unpleasent, and is directly responsible for the death of Balder, the god of light.
The gods punished him for the death of Balder. He was chained and a poisonous snake was placed above his head. But the dripping venom that lands on him is caught by his wife, Sigyn, in a bowl. Sometimes, when the bowl is filled to the brim, she has to leave him to empty it, then the poison that falls on Loki's face makes him twist in pain, causing earthquakes.
On the day of Ragnarök (Doom of the Gods), Loki's chains will break and he will lead the giants into battle against the gods.
Loki is often called the Sly One, the Trickster, the Shape Changer, and the Sky Traveler.
