Loki is a wily trickster god of Norse mythology. While recognized as a nominal member of the Norse gods, Loki plays a highly unique role among the gods, giants, and the other kinds of spiritual beings that populates the Norse religion. Loki fathered Hel (goddess of the Underworld), Jormungand (World Serpent who killed Thor during Ragnarök), and mothered Sleipnir (Odin’s eight-legged horse) when he shapeshifted into a mare and courted the stallion Svadilfari. Loki is often portrayed as a nihilistic character whose only concern is for pleasure and self-preservation. He is playful, malicious, but helpful to the other gods at the same time. This can be seen in many tales where Loki rectifies calamities which he himself caused in the beginning.
