Loki is the Norse god of mischief.

History

Long ago, Loki committed a terrible sin and was sentenced to be chained into a cave where a snake would perpetually spit venom in his face. He was freed by Odin in order to bargain the Hell's key with Dream of the Endless and escaped to run wild in the mortal world. He took part in the War of the Gods, battling the Justice League, and later aided Puck in kidnapping Daniel Hall, setting in motion the events that led to the child becoming the new Dream. On Odin's orders, Thor tracked Loki down and bound him in the underworld once more.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

• Divine Empowerment
  • Immortality: Loki like other members of the Norse Pantheon is ageless and immortal unless physically killed.
  • Superhuman Durability: Loki is able to take powerful blows by Metamorpho and remain unscathed.
  • Superhuman Stamina: Loki's stamina and endurance are on a godly level, allowing him to fight with members of the Justice League for an extended period of time before deciding to end the fight quickly.
  • Superhuman Strength: Loki possesses enough physical strength to knock away Guy Gardner like a fly and beat both Fire and Ice with his bare hands.
  • Magic: Loki can use powerful magic to cover beings in wood which neither burns nor is capable of being transmuted, as seen by Fire's inability to burn it in her fiery form and Metamorpho's inability to transmute its magical elements. He can also use magic to deflect the Green Lantern Energy of Guy Gardner.
  • Flight: Loki is capable of unassisted flight.
