History

Aegir was the God of the Seas.

He lived in a castle made of coral underwater beneath the Island of Hlesey, guarded by Fish-Men, and had a life of joy, thanks to the companionship of the Ocean-Nymphs.

At some point, he sired three Mermaidens, including Rana.

After Loki had Hoder kill Balder with a mistletoe arrow, Aegir held a feast at Odin's behest, for the Aesir to discuss the incoming Ragnarök, without Loki.

Odin was entertaining Aegir in Asgard when Loki arrived to beg release from his sentence for trying to start Ragnarök.
