In the very first drabble on this blog is the line: “born through magic from the lust of a Jotun woman and a the darkest depths of a prince’s desire for love unconditional”. This is vague on purpose. There are a few ways of translating this, but the one I tend to fall back on is that around the time when Loki started maturing into an adult he wound up the target of a giantess’ obsession. All Loki wanted was to feel the sort of unconditional love that Thor got from their parents and his magic reacted.

The next thing you know, a giantess is giving birth to Loki’s son and dumping a wolf-pup on the Asgardians. Stuff happens, Fenrir grows up and up and up and the wolf definitely got his mother’s scale as he winds up gigantic. The Asgardians start worrying, Odin makes a decision, and Fenrir is tricked into caging himself. 

For whatever reason Loki does not visit his child after that. A clean break? Another attempt to fit himself into Odin’s favor? I don’t know. I’m trying to avoid writing anything specific for characters other than Phil.

On that note: I don’t believe in forcing children and relations on other players. I’d like to play with a Loki or two, but I understand that the whole I’m-your-son aspect can be off putting. I’m willing to play Phil as being the son of an alternate timeline/reality version of Loki, or as a wolf shape shifter of some variety. Drop me a line, we can figure it out.
