Loki was a trickster; it was hard to know whose side he was on. He would gladly help the gods and goddesses in their quests, but his undeniable appetite for trickery would always win out, pushing him to betray them. one of his greatet betrayals was to cause the death of Baldr, a crime that did not go unpunished.

This drawing shows the fake Loki suffered as punishment for his deadly trickery. The gods compelled him to stay under a serpent with poison dripping from its fangs. Each drop would burn his flesh, bringing Loki terrible pain. Fortunately for him, his wife, Sigyn, vowed to stay besides him, placing a bowl between the serpent's maw and her lover's face to collect the poison and stop it from freaching him... until she had to empty the bowl, leaving him temporarily unprotected. When the venom dripped upon him, Loki would writhe in pain, causing the earth to shake.
