In Hinduism - it it's even a term - Brahma is the manifestation of time and space, his curse is - he doesn't have a temple to be worshipped

Even the Greek one is contradicted by a bunch of it's stories

Well that's true for all of them, but I think as an extremely heterogenous religion, it's hard to have much consistency.

It’s gets the gist of it. There are a lot missing and a few “wrong” depends on who you ask.

Just a bit of googling and the thing about Daksha being his own child's child is super wrong.

In some sects, it might be right. Some Hindus believe Krishna is the first god, others view the Trimurti as first. It's complicated.

I thought Odin was Thor and Lokis father

6 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 0

For clarification

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Odin is Thor's father. Loki is Odins blood brother via oath, so technically Thor's "step-uncle"

6 years ago | Likes 17 Dislikes 0

Pretty sure that's just a marvel thing.

Thors father but not lokis

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Not entirely. Even in Marvel, at lest in the MCU, Loki was adopted, and was a frost giant.

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

He is Thor's father. Loki is an adopted Jotun (meaning troll) and that's why he's always pissy

6 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Jötnar and trolls are not the same thing. They're all magical humanoids, but they are distinct.

Salty ice, yes. Auđumla was imagined by people who lived far enough up north that sea water froze in the winter, after all.

I guess I missed that part in the Thor/Avengers movies when Loki fucked a horse

Among other things.

Technically - the horse fucked him. Loki turned himself into a mare to distract the horse so the Asgardians wouldn't have to pay their bill.

"we'll build a wall and have Loki's ass pay for it"

6 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

To be fair - the bill was Freya's hand in marriage. So it was "We'll build a wall say Freya's ass will pay for it then substitute Loki."

Sleipnir actually appears for like... 5 seconds when Odin comes to Jotuheim.

Essentially, the Aesir had hired a giant to build a wall around Asgard in exchange for the sun and moon, and Freya. So, they had Loki 1/?

turn into a mare and lure away the giant's stallion for a couple of weeks so he didn't manage to finish the wall on time. 2/3

Loki is a shapeshifter. And if you can do species, sex is no issue so he can also become female. And he REALLY needed to distract a horse...
