mini starter call !  give this post a like, and i’ll write you a (probably short) starter from loki!!

[iingwaz-blog]

├ EZRA MILLER / SOFIA BLACK-D’ELIA. GENDERFLUID. HE/THEY/SHE. ┤ you’re riding solo, LOKI. their file names them a A FEW THOUSAND year old FROST GIANT / DEITY from MARVEL. according to their old friend, LOKI has ALL of their memories. but what they do know, is their quintessence is captured within the lyrics of I WANNA GET BETTER by THE BLEACHERS.

trigger warnings: death

this is the story of loki backstory, let’s go!

a disaster, a mess, a trainwreck of a person deity

this intro is a reflection of that

like really this is a mess, reading the wiki would probably be a lot less confusing

okay, so right off the bat let’s just establish one thing: i play loki based almost entirely off the comics.  there may be a few thing’s influenced and based off the mcu, but my portrayal of loki is probably like… 99% comics based.

so i’m pretty sure we all know the basics of who this asshole is bc of the mcu, but let’s quickly establish a few things that are different 1) loki was raised fully knowledgeable that he was adopted / is a jotun, not an aesir 2) loki dies - like full on, not faking or almost dying and then not, is completely 100% dead - multiple times. 2a) there’s multiple different incarnations/versions of loki in the comics, kinda almost as a result of that. 2b) more on all this in a moment. 3) loki is…. vastly more powerful in the comics.

okay so i know i said i write loki in the comics, but i also mentioned that there’s a lot of lokis in the comics.  so which one in particular do i play??

the third main incarnation, most commonly referred to as ikol.  ikol was originally created by the first loki as kind of a failsafe of sorts in the event that he died?

which yknow

he did

the original loki fucking died.  rip in pieces, you piece of shit.

ikol is a ghost, a copy, an echo of the original loki.

loki ended up being uhhh reincarnated as a kid.  this incarnation, known commonly as kid loki, is great.

except for the part where ikol’s whole purpose was to, yknow, kill him.

which he did

kill kid loki, that is.

didn’t just kill him, really.  stole his body, too.

just loki things: murdering yourself, and then stealing your body

“i am the crime that will not be forgiven!”

this is such a goddamn mess i’m sorry

okay so…. we have now arrived at the point of ikol playing the role of loki

the event of young avengers v2 happen, all that good fun happy stuff happens

and then!!  loki: agent of asgard!

sooo…. loki ends up working for the all-mother (mainly freyja, who’s, yknow, loki’s mum) to basically make up for all of loki’s past crimes, misdeeds, and such.

anD THEN! king loki shows up

king loki is… ikol’s future self?  

he’s from a future where loki accomplished pretty much all that they set out to do.  their past crimes were largely forgiven and forgotten

but… loki still wasn’t accepted by the asgardians, was still mistrusted, was still theoutsider.

because loki is the god of lies, and how can anybody trust someone with that title?

and that, yknow, rightfully pissed him off.  and it basically sparked him into going back down the path of villainy.

and go back in time and try and force ikol to accept that their fate, that loki is only ever going to be hated, is only ever going to be a villain.

and it very nearly works!  largely as a result of king loki’s machinations, ikol ends up, well. 1) thor finds out about kid loki, very nearly kills ikol, and basically disowns them 2) the asgardians basically say that ikol isn’t even worth pretending to care about 3) freyja basically disowns them as well, and sends them into exile

but.  largely because loki made a friend, the absolute best friend in the world, king loki’s plan doesn’t work.

and loki kinda redefines who they are and what a lie is.

“what is a lie, when it’s at home?” … “a lie is a story told, that’s all.”

a story is just a falsehood that people like to hear, that people like to be told.

and we see loki become the god of stories, rather than stay the god of lies

it’s largely the same title, just with a more positive spin to it

they’ve also said that while they have no plans to do anything evil, and that that’s not really who they are anymore, trying to say they haven’t done it or are incapable of it is wholly wrong

and now! stuff that’s actually super relevant to the rp rather than backstory, let’s mcfucking goooo

loki is genderfluid.  it’s a canon fact about this incarnation of loki.

loki has no idea how they feel about chicago.  they’d much prefer to be in new york city, but they’ll take this over a small town

mostly they’re just upset that the technology is so outdated

there’s a 90% chance that if they need money, they’ll steal it.  just bc they’re not evil anymore doesn’t mean they’re good

if you read through all that, i’m sorry and i love you ♥

EZRA MILLER & SOFIA BLACK-D’ELIA, UNKNOWN, MARVEL COMICS, THEY/THEM & SHE/HER. did you see LOKI walking down the streets of canada? they remind of me BLACK NAILPOLISH, MISCHIEVOUS LAUGHTER, AND SPARKING GREEN MAGIC. they’re here as an UNEMPLOYED and they’re in Halifax because THEY’RE TRYING TO ESCAPE THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES.

i tried to keep this brief but who am i kidding i ramble

so.  i write a strictly comics / earth 616 based loki

mcu canon? idk her

okay not really i do know and rather enjoy the mcu i just don’t write an mcu based loki

anyway

loki, a brief history:

the og loki existed and died

loki was reincarnated as a kid

kid loki was haunted by a copy/echo/ghost of the og loki

the echo’s name is ikol

ikol basically kinda kills kid loki and steals his body and becomes loki

loki (ikol) goes through Some Shit™

not-dies a few times

and that’s what you missed on glee!

so..... there’s a loki comic currently running.  i’m going to try, as best i can, to keep loki up to date with it but also.... *stares at the ending of issue 3* that’s not always going to be possible

i also want to avoid posting spoilers for the most part but???? yknow whatever

so, currently, loki’s the reigning monarch of jotunheim (after they killed laufey (which was after laufey tried to eat them (apparently the frost giants are cannibals????)))

buT they hate it.  like, it’s pretty peaceful and nice and loki could live a pretty happy and content life as the king of jotunheim

except. you know. that’s super boring and they would rather die tbh

so............. they decided they want to join the avengers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

it’s not going well for them though

and they’ve wound up in halifax instead, trying to run from thor and their responsibilities

idk guys

they’re genderfluid, and i write their gender as flowing between being a woman and somewhere closer to agender

formerly the god of evil and lies, currently-ish the god of mischief and stories, also currently the god of nothing

read? their wiki pages?? i guess????? (x) (x) (x)
