What is the god of mischief?

Answer 2

That depends on which mythology you are looking at, since many religions have a "trickster" in their pantheon of deities. In Norse Mythology it would be Loki. To several Mesopotamian mythologies it would be Baal. In Greek mythology, Hermes is often associated with tricks and mischief. Hindus tell stories of Krishna as a boy stealing butter. In Africa and in the parts of the Caribbean where Santeria is practiced, it's Eshu (also called Elegua).
