Panel 1:
Loki sitting on the edge of the camp, overlooking a cliff over the rocky shores. A cat sith watches them.
Panel 2:
The cat sith jumps down from a rock, a letter in it’s mouth.
Panel 3:
Loki: [perks up, looking over as the sith approaches] “Oh, hello.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sngubhguyhwoqsuzjfrapalb/bafkreihokedlpkr4ueozv2hpmff2fujlipb5nmoa5dgvoxclswd6vgdaji)

Panel 1:
The cat stops next to them.
Loki: “… do you not fear me? The fae oft find me unnerving.”
Panel 2:
Loki: “… is this for me?” [they take the invite, moving to pet the cat sith with their other hand] “Thank you, friend.”
A figure with red eyes is watching from the trees in the background.
Panel 3:
The cat sith dodges their hand, glaring at them before walking away.
Loki: “Ah… sorry.”
Panel 4:
The cat glares at Loki.
Loki: "I guess that’s expected…"
Panel 5:
Loki looks to the side, somber..
Loki: "...though I wish I could show you my thanks.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sngubhguyhwoqsuzjfrapalb/bafkreiggzud5pi6g65klrjac2lfx3qqqbdv7szmdvyj2xyrg4tfxqim334)
![Page 3 of Loki's reference. The images show the items in their inventory, magic or other wise, as well as them creating a barrier with their staff.
Artifact Collector
Magic is something that has always interested Loki, but as someone who doesn't have a talent for spell casting, they have instead collected a large number of magic items. Some are useful, but many are useless or gimmicky, such as a self-sewing needle, or a tin crown that instills the wearer with false confidence. Only Loki could tell you why they considered it worth keeping. There’s far too many items to list out in full, but here’s a few of Loki’s most readily available mainstays:
Seeing-Stone: One can see through glamour and illusions when looking through it.
Lantern Staff: Never stops glowing, and when the light turns from blue to gold, it creates a barrier around it about as wide as the staff is tall (aprox. 9’~)
Coin Bangles: They magically protect Loki’s hands, keeping them clean like a pair of gloves, but also preventing magical effects from activating on touch.
Jewelry Box: Nullifies the magic effects of anything inside until it is removed, like a mini-stasis chamber.
Scroll Canister: Repeals magic from interfering with it or it’s contents.
Remembering Map: Shows everywhere it’s ever been, and can be navigated by touch. Additionally, if one’s blood is placed on the map, a rune tracking their location will appear.
[NOTE: Feel free to add more artifacts.]
(Additional) Inventory
Hand made mask.
Journal. Slightly musty.
Forage bag. Tasty.
A shit ton of magical items. And herbs.
Thoughts on Jinx:
“Kind, to allow me to come with her. Kinder, to offer the reward of the tournament to me. Even kinder to help me come up with a way to help all my friends. I admire her magic, I wish the spirits loved me like they love her. She sounds odd. Scuttling. Like many little things. She smells of paper and dust.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sngubhguyhwoqsuzjfrapalb/bafkreibmh62gwk76kcw7ldds53z4rrlhciro3lodkwr3icufmcqalodwoy)
