HistoryEdit

In the early days, Odin , the King of Asgard, marched his forces into Jotunheim to battle Laufey and the Frost Giants. Odin faced down Laufey and destroyed his war club, prompting Laufey to brandish a sword. A sprawling battle between the two forces ensued.

The battle ended with Odin using Mjolnir to crush Laufey's skull. Odin discovered a baby, Laufey's son Loki, amongst the wreckage, and made the decision to raise him as his own son. Laufey had kept Loki hidden as he was ashamed that Loki had been born a runt.

It was later retconned that Loki had been a child, rather than a baby, when Laufey was killed. The day prior to the battle, Loki had attempted to inform him of an opportunity to stealthily kill Odin prior to the battle. Laufey struck Loki for calling him a coward.

The next day, after the fateful battle and Odin's claiming of Loki as a son, Laufey was left wounded, but alive. A version of Loki from the future traveled back in time to alter events, proceeded to decapitate him, stating that Laufey would never strike him again.
