The Evermore Grimoire: Heroes
Loki Laufeyson is the god of mischief & stories, a Prince of Asgard and a Variant of himself. After sabotaging the Asgardian throne on a number of occasions Loki found himself serving under Thanos by taking an army of Chitauri to New York City, but his plans were soon thwarted Thor and the Avengers. Before Loki could be taken back to Asgard though, the Avengers from another timeline altered history and caused him to escape using the Tesseract. He was then arrested by the Time Variance Authority and recruited by Mobius M. Mobius to hunt down Sylvie Laufeydottir, another Variant of his. Having learned that the TVA had been built on lies, Loki helped Sylvie track down the Time-Keepers and its founder, He Who Remains. They were warned by He Who Remains that if he was killed, his Variants would conquer the Multiverse. Sylvie still murdered him causing the timeline to branch indefinitely. Loki then found himself in a different TVA, and began Time Slipping between the past, present and future. Returning to the present, Loki met Ouroboros and learned that the Temporal Loom was on the verge of failing. His work to repair the Loom reunited him with Sylvie and encounter Victor Timely, a variant of He Who Remains. Despite their best efforts, the Loom collapsed and seemingly destroyed the TVA; however, everyone except Loki were in reality returned to their places on the Sacred Timeline. Learning to control his Time Slipping, Loki used his new power to go back to before the Loom was destroyed, trying everything he could to salvage it. Unable to do so, he time slipped back to his original confrontation with He Who Remains, who revealed that the Loom was a failsafe whose purpose was to protect the Sacred Timeline whilst eliminating the excess branches and preventing the Multiversal War. Defiant, Loki chose to destroy the Loom and weave the branches together by hand, sitting on his newly created throne at the End of Time, determined to protect the people of the Multiverse his own way.
