Half Frost Giant One of the most peculiar aspects of Loki’s background is that he is not technically an Asgardian by heritage, and was only adopted into Odin’s family at an early age. Born the son of Queen Farbauti and King Lauffey, the leader of the giants of Jottunheim, Loki was outcast for his comparatively diminutive size.

How did Loki get so small in size?

When frost giants are subjected to intense heat, they get smaller. Since Asgard is the land of eternal summer, that explains why Loki doesn’t get as big as the other frost giant and why he seems a bit sickly even. Plus most people think Odin used magic to make him appear Asgardian. Personally, I think it was Loki’s survival instincts.

What would happen if Loki was left on Jotunheim?

My personal theory is that, if relieved of his Asgardian clothes and weaponry, and left on the Jotunheim “planetoid”, Loki would indeed slowly revert back to his naturally blue “Frost Giant” appearance, though whether or not he might begin to grow in stature to become a full-on Frost Giant is still doubtful.
