Chronology

 * Main article:Baggage City Arc

He is first seen having a conversation with Weissland Strainikov about the means to fight back Academy City. Weissland stated that through denying resources, and spread news that the Anti-Academy City Science Guardians "have a chance of winning" is the best bet.

At one point in time, Útgarða-Loki had realized that he was under the influence of an illusion and break free from it, only to be beaten nearly to death by Kiharu Ransuu. While Ransuu was busy torturing Weissland, Útgarða-Loki had managed to immoblize Ransuu with his own magic. As soon as he could move enough, he began to smash Ransuu's head in with a pile of paper. Thinking he was finally safe, his shoulder was tapped on by Kamijou Touma.

Abilities
Útgarða-Loki is the illusion specialist of GREMLIN; his illusions are similar to the mold used by Kiharu Ransuu. His magic allowed him to transfer the information sent to one of the five senses to a different sense. Simply put, he could make someone feel the pain of burning by showing them a picture of fire. Used correctly, that ability held quite a bit of destructive power, but many materials used together in the right way were needed to give a more accurate and long-lasting illusion.
