Loki's Family Tree
Loki's two brothers are missing from this, but we know nothing about them.
Besides that I got nothing to add.

Sleipnir most likely got his eight legs after Loki. Loki is thought to have been the spider god in older germanic paganism (Odin is probably a merge of the horse, raven and wolf). Also, "Loke" (or other variations) can literally mean spider in various scandinavian dialects. In faroese for example "lokkanet" means 'spiderweb'.

Was Svadilfare 8 legged? I thought he was just a normal horse and Sleipner was only 8 legged because Loki.

Ah, Loki's brood with Angrboda. Hel is my favorite Norse deity. Also, don't make Nari and Vali so cute. Nari's intestines were used to bond Loki to the rock after Baldur's death, and Vali was turned into a wolf.

I once did a picture/weave of different relations between the norse gods, and I think I chose purple for conflict/hate. Loki was connected with purple lines to almost everyone.
