Odin's Valkyrie
From SCross
In Odin's court reside beautiful maidens known as the Valkyrie. These Battle Maidens journey to battle fields the world over, singing hymns to Odin and collecting the souls of the dieing deemed worthy to join Odin's army. These souls become Einherjar, spending eternity in friendly(but generally mortal) conflict with one another by 'day' with the 'night' reserved for feasting an drinking. This army of Odin awaits a final conflict for the fate of the Spirit Realm, called Ragnarok.
It is possible to pact with Valkyrie, but often the process demands a show of martial prowess. Valkyrie are generally unimpressed by magic, preferring traditional implements of war, and thus the few Summoners that have ever pacted one have often been powerful War Summoners in the armies of the Empire or the Barbarians.
