Half-Frost Giant and half Storm Giant, Loki was raised as one of the Aesir with no knowledge of their true heritage, after Odin, King of Asgard, found them as an infant, left to die, during the last war against the Frost Giants of Jötunheim. Ever since their early childhood, they’ve had an aptitude for magic, mayhem, and tricks, creating mischief wherever they went. While meant to be harmless pranks, they often spiralled out of control into catastrophe—which caused the Aesir to be somewhat less fond of Loki than they were of their elder brother Thor.
Still, no matter how dire the circumstances their mischief might have caused, Loki was always able to fix it, somehow, so they lived their life in a rather carefree manner.
Though, their mischief would go too far when an attempt to teach Thor responsibility nearly ended in war between Asgard and Jötunheim and led to the elder’s banishment—and Loki discovered the truth about their heritage. Angry that they had been lied to, they seized the throne of Asgard and attempted to use the Bifröst to destroy Jötunheim, but they were stopped by Thor and fell from the Bifröst into the depths of space.
Later, they were recruited by Thanos’ agents and sent with an army of Chitauri aliens to conquer the planet Midgard, or Earth, in exchange for the Tesseract, one of the Infinity Stones. They were armed with a sceptre containing the Mind Stone, which allowed them to control the minds of others, but their attack is eventually thwarted and they are defeated by the Avengers, and returned to an Asgardian prison.
When the Dark Elves attack Asgard, Thor frees Loki so that they can show him a portal to Svartalfheim. There, they are fatally wounded while saving Thor’s life. However, they manage to survive, and, believing themselves to be abandoned, return to Asgard, using their magic to wipe their adoptive father’s memory, sending him to Earth, and shapeshifting into Odin to rule Asgard in his stead.
Thor returns to Asgard to discover the truth, and takes Loki with him to earth to find Odin, who warns the pair of Hela’s impending attack. The pair try to save Asgard, but are ultimately unable to, and Loki summons Surtr, king of the Fire Giants, beginning Ragnarök to destroy Asgard and Hela’s power. The people of Asgard escape to Earth as their homeworld crumbles, Loki among them.
