The protagonist of Loki is not the same person. That's not to say the character wasn't an enigmatic figure or a good guy, but he's a very different person from the one last seen in the main timeline. Disney and Marvel were smart to find a new and plausible way to keep Loki alive in the MCU.
The Loki we see in “Loki” is not the same God of Mischief we see in the majority of the MCU — he's actually another version of him from a separate timeline. Just as Loki and Thor teamed up and all seemed well at the end of “Thor: Ragnarok,” their home was destroyed.
So the way they are explaining it within the show is that Loki (Tom Hiddleston, Earth 199999), is the 'original' to this universe. Sylvie and the other 'Loki's' are what happens when some decision in the past resulted in a different version of Loki being created.
In the comics, Lady Loki is a reborn version of the Loki we know and love. She has the same personality and powers – shapeshifting, creating illusions, other sorcery and magic – as the male version of the character.
Also dubbed as Variant L1130, he is the one who escaped from the year 2012 when the Avengers were trying to retrieve the time stone by going back in time. This is the variant of Loki we have all been following in the Loki series. The reason he was captured by the TVA is his escape using the Tesseract cube.
The two trekked to a nearby town, and the two argued on the way, especially how Sylvie was a Variant but did not like to be called one, and also did not like to be called Loki. She then told him her name was Sylvie, and Loki told her that having an alias was not Loki-like.
In the comics, there is no difference. She isn't an alternate version, one that has escaped the main timeline. She is the Loki we all know and love. You have to remember, Marvel based their God of Mischief on Norse mythology in which the trickster god is genderfluid and often appears as a man or woman.
After he's captured by the TVA, Loki's tasked with helping it track down a variant of himself — Sylvie, a female Loki hellbent on revenge against the Authority. After facing down an apocalypse together, the two fall in love, which has reality-shattering implications.
How is Thor 500 years older than Loki? Thor Odinson himself said he is around 1500 years old at the time of the events of Infinity War (2018), and MCU fandom wiki mentions Loki's year of birth as 965 AD, hence he would be 1055 years old at the time of his death in 2018. So, Thor is around 445 years older than Loki.
Unlike other Variants however, Classic Loki placed more emphasis on his sorcery than his bladework and was therefore a far more powerful wizard than an average Loki.
Creation of a branched reality: When Loki escapes with the Tesseract, he creates a branched reality, according to the Russo Brothers, the directors of Avengers: Endgame. This means that a new timeline is created where Loki is still alive [3].
Technically speaking, the real Loki — or rather, the Loki that fans have watched since 2011 — is still dead. The version in the series is from a different timeline, and he is at a distinct point in his character growth.
Here, holding on to all of the timelines, he became a kind of tree god, physically representing the Norse tree of life, Yggdrasil. It was a poignant and painful ending for Loki, who now seems to be sentenced to being alone for eternity as he watches over the timelines.
Fatherly summed up the character as: "While the comics imply that some version of Loki created Sylvie, they are not the same character. What the Loki series has done is seemingly combined the character of Sylvie and Lady Loki into a new person: a Loki Variant who uses the alias 'Sylvie. '"
"Loki would only do what he does at the end because he cares about her because he cares about Mobius more than anyone he's ever cared about," Wright says. "So I don't think it's about pulling back on anything. I think it would feel forced and unnatural to slow down and give them romantic time together.
In just a matter of seconds, Loki has disrupted Sylvie's new, quiet life. “Loki is a threat to Sylvie in this series because he is asking for her help but he's asking for her to step away from this life. She [explains to him] I'm out I, I don't want anything to do with this.
Odin revealed that he wanted to gain a permanent peace between Asgard and Jotunheim by having Loki rule the world of the Frost Giants. Loki was disgusted by his own parentage and claimed that Odin could have never loved him the same way he loved Thor and would have never given him the throne.
By the jötunn Angrboða, Loki is the father of Hel, the wolf Fenrir, and the world serpent Jörmungandr. In the form of a mare, Loki was impregnated by the stallion Svaðilfari and gave birth to the eight-legged horse Sleipnir.
He always hated Balder, and when Balder became virtually unkillable, he found a loophole and tricked Balder's own brother into killing him. And he and Heimdall never got along. They fought constantly over the years, and eventually, kill each other at Ragnarok. Does Loki really hate Thor?
She's Sylvie so she has blonde over black hair. The “Lady Loki" is a variant of Loki on a different timeline — which means that the variant went through many variations to become a “Loki" that isn't like the original in a lot of ways.
Sophia Marie Di Martino is an English actress known for portraying Sylvie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe television series Loki. Di Martino was born in Nottingham and grew up in the suburb of Attenborough.
Again, Marvel is simply reflecting an aspect of Loki that's existed in Norse mythology for centuries. Loki is a trickster who can adopt many different forms, male, female and otherwise. Far from needing to steal another Asgardian's body, Loki can change his physical form at will.
Canon. Loki and Thor are brothers, and Loki and Sylvie are variants of each other from alternative timelines. Due to the time-travel aspect of the Loki series, there are some variations in the canon/history of each character in this relationship.
