We're here for the angel.

Narfi was a Norse demigod and the son of Loki.

History[]

At one point, Narfi was friends with the archangel Gabriel alongside his father Loki and his brothers Fenrir and Sleipnir.

In 2010, Gabriel approached Loki and his family for help hiding after faking his death at Lucifer's hands at the Elysian Fields Hotel. The four agreed and allowed Gabriel to party with them. However, enraged by the death of Odin at Lucifer's hands, something that he blamed Gabriel for, Loki turned on Gabriel. Loki had his sons bind Gabriel while he was sleeping and sell Gabriel to the Prince of Hell Asmodeus.

In 2018, Gabriel escaped from Asmodeus' custody and came after Loki and his family for revenge. Gabriel was able to kill Fenrir, though he was injured in the process. Narfi and Sleipnir discovered Fenrir's body afterwards and Narfi was displeased with his brother's disrespect towards Fenrir. After tasting Gabriel's blood, Narfi identified it as coming from an archangel and the brothers realized what it mean. Quickly, Sleipnir informed Loki of the situation.

Narfi and Sleipnir managed to track Gabriel to the Winchester's motel room. Displaying a holographic image of his true form, Narfi demanded Gabriel who identified the two to the Winchesters. During the fight that followed, Narfi attacked Sam Winchester, quickly subduing him and then strangling Sam from behind as Sleipnir fought Dean. As Narfi continued to strangle Sam, he was stabbed through the heart from behind by Gabriel with one of his swords, killing Narfi and scaring off Sleipnir.

Following Narfi's death, the Winchesters broke into a junkyard and disposed of Narfi's body in a car crusher.
