Svanhildr, the Valkyrie I adopted from norala a bit ago. I wantged to get her backstory down before posting.


Name: Svanhildr
Age: Immortal
Gender: Female
Species: Valkyrie
Personality: Noble, honorable, courageous

Bio: Svanhildr is a fallen Valkyrie, an immortal warrior exiled from her place at the right hand of the God of War for disobedience: she refused to fight an unjust war, instead raising her sword against her fellow Valkyries in order to protect innocent mortals. Karth, the God of War, in a fit of rage, moved to strike her down but was stopped by Dyne, the Goddess of Justice and Mercy. Dyne's strength was greater than that of the war god and she easily stayed his hand, putting the brave Valkyrie under her divine protection.

Svanhildr was instead banished from the realm of the Gods, doomed to live amongst the mortal races until the Final Cataclysm. She sought refuge with one of the Guardians of the Mortal Realm, the Great Roc. Rather than seeing it as a punishment, Svanhildr instead embraced her life among the mortals, taking it upon herself to teach swordplay and other martial skills in her adopted home, the Kingdom of the Roc.
