Tricks, disguises, jokes, and innocent fun are all part of the gods regular daily activities. Loki is known as the Trickster and Odin uses many disguises and pseudonyms. While both of these gods engage in tricky activities there is a slight difference between their actions. Loki's jokes often prove injurious while Odin's disguises allow him to speak wisdom to many.
