However, they do note that Riordan's "firm grasp" over his audience will make things acceptable. Hypable said that the introduction of a genderfluid character is a "risk" as a portion of the population will not want their children to be exposed to the "realities of life". They also noted that Fierro made a point about not representing the entire transgender population in the book. They noted that Riordan spent more time with Fierro's prose, but that it deepened their characterization.
Texas A&M University-Commerce noted that the introduction of Fierro complicated matters. Reception Īlex Fierro was praised by reviewers as a new attempt to secure LGBTQ rights. Alex Fierro is also capable of shapeshifting, another trait she inherited from Loki. Being a child of Loki, Alex is distrusted at first, but is later accepted by Magnus and their floormates.
Due to the fact that Alex is transgender, the thanes of Valhalla and some fellow einherjar call Alex argr, Old Norse for "unmanly". Magnus is initially shocked by this, but quickly grows to accept it. Although Alex's mother is Loki - a god known for his shapeshifting powers - Alex does not accept the traits she inherited as Loki’s or attribute her gender-fluidity to her parentage. She also states that she usually identifies as a girl and prefers she/her pronouns unless she says otherwise. Tells Magnus that she prefers others use the gender pronoun that matches her current gender identity, rather than simply using the singular gender-neutral they. Alex is genderfluid, switching between the male and female genders. Fierro had attacked the hotel manager and wrecked her given room. Alex is selected as an einherji by her sister Samirah and the latter oversees the former's first appearance as a cheetah running across Valhalla with Magnus and his floormates chasing Alex. Description Īlex Fierro is a child of Loki with heterochromia introduced in the second installment of the Magnus chase series. Riordan had used the book of interviews Beyond Magenta as a source of information for developing the character.
