Who is Floki in Vikings?
The boatbuilder touched by the gods · House Lothbrok
Floki (The boatbuilder touched by the gods) is a character in Vikings, part of House Lothbrok. Floki builds the boats that make Ragnar's defiance possible — shallow-keeled wonders that can cross open ocean and slide up a river. Giggling, twitching, and claiming kinship with Loki, he lives apart from the town and closer to the gods than anyone finds comfortable. Floki's genius is matched by his zealotry: he loves Ragnar as a brother, and he watches his friend's growing fascination with the Christians' god with something that begins as mockery and curdles toward fury.
