The horns extending from the eyes were based on snail parasites, and emphasis was placed on making him appear sickening and with no apparent sense of direction.
This camouflage was used to make it harder to figure out the shape or size of warships. The design is based on the " dazzle camouflage" of World War I warships. His design is a large body patterned in white and black, and we hoped that it would conjure up the image of not being able to see where his loyalty lies. Kaneko's design for Loki draws inspiration from 19th century Danish illustrator Lorenz Frølich's depictions of Loki in the 1895 poem Lokasenna, in which he can be seen here quarrelling at a table with Bragi, Freyja, Freyr, Frigg, Heimdallr, Iðunn, Njörðr, Odin, Sif, Skaði and Tyr.
The trickster god also is the mother of Odin's great eight-legged steed Sleipnir, as Loki was impregnated by the powerful male stallion Svaðilfari while disguised as a mare. It is unknown how Loki reacted to his childrens' fate, though it can be assumed he was none too pleased with it but could not go against Odin. He marries the minor goddess Sigyn, but has many affairs, one being with the giantess Angrboda, by who he gives birth to Hel, the queen of Niflheim Fenrir, the oversized wolf who is fated to kill Odin at Ragnarök and Jormungandr, the World Serpent banished to the seas. His jötunn heritage does aid in explaining the complexity of his character, as the jötunns once went to war against the Aesir and are considered, in many ways, their enemies. Loki, as the son of a jötunn as well as a goddess, straddles the two warring factions, a trait which plagues his character throughout his mythology. With the onset of Ragnarök, Loki is foretold to encounter the god Heimdallr and kill him, dying in the process. He is son of Fárbauti, a jötunn, and Laufey, a lesser known goddess and is the blood-brother of Odin, with his two biological brothers being Helblindi and Býleistr. His mischievous nature was such that he even managed to slither his way into becoming one of the Norse deities. Loki was the trickster god who was also known to be a god of mischief, magic and fire in Norse mythology. 5.34 Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2.5.27 Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth.5.19 Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner.5.10 Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey.4.19 Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2.
