// Meeting The Parents //

>> This was a theory I made when I watch the first mk1 trailer and also the reveal they are both brothers. We know now but at that times, everything was all messy so I did this.

>> What if the reason they both had the Scorpion and Sub Zero title is because it was pass down to them, by their own parents? Which is the actual Sub Zero and Scorpion we all know and love. They are just now old married grandmasters who adore their sons as they both carry on their legacy. Also the clan fused as well! Good ending for all.

greek mythology: hephaestus

hephaestus is the olympian god of fire, smiths, craftsmen, metalworking, stonemasonry and sculpture.

THE GOD OF MISCHIEF AND FIRE IS HERE!!! Loki is finally updated! Now he looks waaay better (and more androgenous :v) than before, now with even some tattoos!

Son of Fárbauti with Laufey, Loki was brother of Býleistr (which was also known as Thor and the giant father of wather spirits) and was "born" when his father struck his mother, causing a wildfire. From it, he took form. Loki had always been jealous of his brother, and when the dwarves Eitri and Brokkr decided to make the hammer Mjölnir for Býleistr, Loki decided to disrupt the forging but although succeeding with it and making the warhammer's handle smaller for such a gigantic hammerhead, Býleistr was fascinated by the hammer and could wield it even with such a disparity in weight.

Loki was fuming in rage and when a young god, Perkwunos, wanted the hammer for himself, Loki helped the young god achieving the god's goal, but his envy and jealousy blinded him to see though Perkwunos's intention. When the god held the hammer in his hand, he did not waste time on slaying Loki's brother in cold-blood, taking for himself the magic of weather spirits and Býleistr's title "Thor".

After that, the young god now named Thor threatened Loki into tricking Eitri and Brokkr to make for the thunder god a way to use the hammer with ease (due to its weight and small handle), and so the "járngreipr" were forged. Upon discovering about the trick, Eitri and Brokkr captured Loki and sewn his mouth shut "so he could not spread any more lies".

His other stories where he lied, tricked the gods and giants and even helped in the killing of Baldr led him into being hunted and captured by Váli Odinson, the god born with the sole purpose of capturing Loki, and bounding the trickster god into a rock with Loki's own daughter's guts, and the most venomous snake to spit its venom on the god's face for eternity. If not by Sigyn, his lover, who holds a bowl below the snake's mouth, Loki would be forever suffering and even if from time to time Sigyn has to let the venom drip on his lover everytime she empties the bowl, causing him to spasm and causing Midgard to shake, he would not have chosen any other one to spend his eternity with.

FINALLY HE IS DONE! I wanted so much to redesign him and I finally could BUT if you think he's the last redesigned OC Imma post, you're wrong >:D some Valkyries were also redesigned too and WILL be posted first on my P4TR30N so if any of you want check it out, it will be worth your money :D

OLD LOKI

Hephaestus ⚙️🔥

Zharook, a lesser god of fire from Ukrainian myth for an art contest (somehow I'm among the winners. Literally a very first win among contests I participated in)

greek mythology | hephaestus | weapon maker of the gods

hephaestus’ importance is never stressed enough. without him, most of the weapons that the olympian gods use would not exist. he created the silver bow and arrows artemis uses, the chariot apollo rides in, aigis breastplate made for zeus or athena, armor and shield created for achilles, spear of peleus, weapons of heracles, armor of aenas, and many many more. 

Thetis finding baby Hephaestus after he was thrown off the mountain.

Atar, the god of fire 🔥

Atar, or Azar, is the god of fire and sacrifice. In the old Avesta, he is introduced as the son of Ahura Mazda and is one of the most powerful gods. Atar has direct contact with people and is responsible for their duties and is also the link between people and the other gods. Atar is considered one of the most important Iranian gods, because he has several types of fire in him that protect people and the world, cleanse them, and transform materials into a supernatural force. This is why Iranians have always honored and protected fire so that fire would also protect them. Atar also hosts the oldest trials in ancient Iran to identify the guilty from the righteous by means of his power of discernment. Atar is also associated with stone, earth, and metals, and is a skilled blacksmith. Although he does not intervene personally and his subordinates and various fires do the work, it is Atar who allows these works with his innate fire. Atar has close ties with Anahita, Vayu, and Mithra. Since Atar's role is very serious, he himself has a serious and firm personality. Due to his power of discernment, Atar is also associated with Rashnu and together they establish justice on earth.

In the story, Atar is like a big uncle that everyone is afraid of, but always has confidence in uwu✨

Loki and fire hot take

(hehe, hot take get it)

There is not a single source saying Loki is associated with fire. But right out said that Logi is the wild fire personified, and beat Loki in a eating competition. So if Loki is a god of fire then hes really bad at it sense he lose to fire itself.

So why is there so much online about Loki being a god of fire?

When fire personified just sits there in front of you like "hello, im in one of the most famous myths and bested Loki, why is everyone on and on about Loki and some smith in muspelheim being the fire guy?"

Its almost like Loki being a fire god was a thing Loki himself started to spread out of spite for loosing to Logi....tbh I think that might be it.
