The serpent drips venom from above him that Sigyn collects into a bowl. In both the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, the goddess Skaoi is responsible for placing a serpent above him while he is bound. Loki is eventually bound by the gods with the entrails of one of his sons. Loki's positive relations with the gods ends with his role in engineering the death of the god Baldr. Loki is a shape shifter and in separate incidents he appears in the form of a salmon, mare, seal, a fly, and possibly an elderly woman. Loki sometimes assists the gods and sometimes causes problems for them. Loki's relation with the gods varies by source. In addition, Loki is referred to as the father of Vali in the Prose Edda. And with the stallion Svaoilfari as the father, Loki gave birth-in the form of a mare-to the eight-legged horse Sleipnir.
