Korotiku is an Immortal of the Sphere of Thought in the Mystara setting of Dungeons & Dragons. He's your classic trickster archetype, and is probably inspired by Anansi from West African and Afro-Caribbean mythology/folklore.
History[edit | edit source]
Like other "ancient Immortals" Korotiku claims to not remember his mortal origins. He, alongside Ka, Ordana, and Ixion, helped shape the Hollow World.
Personality[edit | edit source]
Korotiku is a mischievous prankster. In most stories told of him, he is tricking or outsmarting other Immortals. His goal is to shake people out of complacency, embarrass the proud and pretentious, shatter illusions, and reward the clever and self-sufficient. He hates Loki for stealing his Trickster God schtick.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Korotiku appears either as a Tanagoro (read: black) human or as a giant black spider with a human face.
