[Valkyrie (Brynhildr): A Valkyrie is a semi-divine, race of female warriors. A Valkyrie might also be called the Chooser of the Slain.

A semi-divine creature is a creature that possesses part of the traits of a divine being. Valkyries can only be created by an extremely powerful, magic proficient Death attribute Asgardians. They are created from female humans. They are expressions of different aspects of the Asgardian but they are not under the control of the Asgardian; they have free will.

Valkyries inherit some certain divine qualities, they are:

Holy Aura: The aura of a Valkyrie has the Holy Attribute regardless of whether they can use aura attribution or not.

Enhanced Intellect and Psyche: Valkyries easily understand problems related to magic and strategies and are extremely hard to trick or control with psychic energy.

Enhanced Physique: The body of a Valkyrie is enhanced by the Death Magic of a powerful Asgardian. They are extremely hard to kill, impossible to poison and have enhanced physical capabilities and body control.

Battle and Death Oriented instincts: Valkyries are battle oriented creatures, their senses naturally can perceive the Flow of Battle which makes it seem as though they can predict the future in a fight. Valkyries can also sense their imminent death or the imminent death of any creature around them.

Familiar: Valkyries can create and summon death type familiars; ravens, dire wolves, vultures, war horses, dark pegasi and a host of other death type psychic life forms and give them bodies. The type(s) of familiar used depends on the personality of the Valkyrie and the Valkyrie’s experience in using familiars.

Spirit Form: Valkyries can transform their body or parts of their body into a fully psychic form (spirit form). In this form their actions can only affect the psyche of creatures and not their physical form. This form allows them to steal memories and control minds but this strains their psyche hence they will be weak to psychic influences if they maintain it for too long or use too many psychic manipulations.

Death Magic (Asgardian): Valkryies can create Einherjar from the psychic energy (Spirit), energy, soul and body of a dead person. Einherjar vary greatly from regular undead. They require sustenance (food), can grow more powerful, and still retain their previous personalities and memories. Einherjar cannot do anything unpleasant to their maker but they also cannot be controlled by their maker. But the maker can remotely destroy them anytime they want.

Einherjar are not weak to Holy Aura like normal undead and they do not die when assaulted with Life Magic, in fact they can be healed with both Life and Death Magic. Einherjar cannot be resurrected when they are killed.

Valkyries have special abilities that they are named after.

Brynhildr: meaning Armor battle or Bright battle. This Valkyrie possesses two abilities; one is an infinite sized separate dimension that she can store anything in, mostly armor and weapons. She can instantly equip any one of her armors and weapons that are in the separate dimension. This ability can be used to store Einherjar.

The second ability allows the Valkyrie to make 3 light runes;

A Healing rune: That stimulates and enhances the regeneration of any creature it is placed on with the energy in it.

A Paralyzing rune: That paralyzes any creature it is placed on by separating the mind of the creature from its body with the energy in it.

An Enhancing rune: That momentarily enhances the properties of any creature or object it is placed on with the energy in it.

After reading Mira thought ‘Interesting, the abilities are cool and most of them are easy to understand. Creating undead… Einherjar seems like a way to make myself a one man army.

From what I’m seeing of this infinite separate dimension, it could allow me to create and store different diamond weapons and armor and use it whenever I’m fighting without ever having to use my own energy to make them in battle, very broken.

I don’t know what this Flow of Battle is but the effect sounds quite cool. I don’t really know what the familiars are about; they just seem like super pets or something. Holy aura is just a dead end for me.

What surprises me though is the amount of magical powers, I’m sure Jade would want me to pick this so that I can teach him the Magic. It’s still really weird though since I don’t use any Magic. I even thought that my diamond energy being part of me would prevent me from getting Magic options. IP, why was this magical race given to me?’

[The Valkyrie race is only available to female Superior Energy Pugilists or Superior Martial Artists. It gives them the option to go to the Magic Pugilist or Magic Warrior classes by combining their Magic and Martial Arts.

With a bit of study in Magic and with some experience in strategy a Valkyrie is a plague to any opponent. The Valkyrie race offers you diverse battle options. It makes you into more than just a fighter but a moving war. The Brynhildr name was given to you because the abilities synergize with your own and can make you a trickier opponent to fight.

Valkyries are battle focused creatures as all their abilities are made with battle in mind. You got this option because you only have one class and it is a battle class.]

Mira thought ‘What is this class thing?’

[Classes are our ways of understanding and identifying your field of expertise (Battle)].

After hearing the short answer, Mira assessed the race options ‘The Human Elementalist (Carbon) race has too many Grade 3 stats. It has great growth potential but it just isn’t my piece of cake. So it’s between Valkyrie and Gene Lord.

Gene Lord has some weird powers that I don’t really understand but I get that since these powers use Biomass, which I’ve never had before, it is supposed to be foreign to me. The starting stats and infinite growth potential are very welcome, if only the powers weren’t so weird and sciency.

Valkyrie seems badass; undead are certainly welcome, the infinite separate dimension is OP and the spirit form will allow me to phase through objects now that I think about it, which is cool. I’m kinda sad that it doesn’t have an ability that uses Biomass since this new stat seems to be a must-have for Mythical creatures.

I wish I could ask for someone’s opinion but it seems like I’m not meant to.

…Final verdict! Now that I scrutinize both Gene Lord and Valkyrie they both have huge weaknesses. Gene Lord’s greatest weakness is its inability to properly reproduce when the Gene Lord has gotten way stronger. The weakness is glaring and it is the reason why they are extinct but it isn’t so problematic from my own perspective. I don’t really have any plans to have kids soon and even when I want to have them their strength won’t really matter to me since I plan to be strong enough to protect them.

The weakness of the Valkyrie is plainly written out… they are just aspects of a greater being. They seem to be made to serve so they don’t really have the capacity to surpass their makers. This is also why the reason for its recommendation is so short. It gives great battle capabilities but it seems to be made to never surpass a certain level. The only natural way to improve is to increase one’s stats; the abilities themselves don’t evolve with proficiency. Although it is not impossible to surpass the limits with constant training, I imagine this Asgardian that made them won’t like the idea of creating a being with free will that can surpass him/her. This weakness makes me want to avoid the Valkyries even if they have the highest intelligence stat of the three options.

Compared to the unlimited growth and high starting stats of the Gene Lord, the Valkyrie pales. Gene Lord it is!’

[Are you certain of your decision? It cannot be reversed]

‘Yup’

[You will now enter into hibernation…]
