In many ways, the Norse god Loki could serve as a patron for the Spark and thus much of the Girl Genius world. Although often understood (particularly in a dualistic system) as "evil", Loki's role is actually that of "trickster": his "alignment" is closer to "chaotic neutral" than "neutral evil" in the quadratic alignment system. Like the Greek Titan Prometheus, Loki brings fire to humanity, the first significant technology, for which he is tortured for Eternity.
