Information
Relationships

Brynhildr is the Chief-Valkyrie of the Valkyrie squad in Asgard who serves the Norse Gods as well as Rossweisse's senior who taught her most of her magic. She is currently serving as Vidar's aide.

Appearance

Brynhildr is a beautiful woman to the point of being described as transcendental with long light blue hair. Outside of battle, she usually wears a professional black suit. In battle, she wears Valkyrie armor similar to the one that Rossweisse adorns in combat.

Personality

Brynhildr is a serious woman who seems exasperated with her duties of watching over Vidar whose cheerful nature clashes with her serious demeanor. She is also very strict with Rossweisse who is her junior due to Rossweisse's clumsiness and critiques Rossweisse's openings in battle. However, like Rossweisse, she is also a bit bitter due to the fact that she does not have a boyfriend although she tries to play it off as just waiting for the right man to come along.

History

Brynhildr is a resident of Asgard recognized as the strongest Valkyrie of her generation, inheriting the name Brynhildr. While serving in Valhalla, she became Rossweisse's senior and taught her about magic, as the two would spar with Brynhildr managing to win every one of their sparring sessions. After Odin's departure to the Isolation Field Barrier, she was assigned to become the aide of the new chief-god; Vidar.

Powers & Abilities

Immense Magic Power: As the Strongest Valkyrie, Brynhildr has considerable magic power enough to be recognized for her position. Her raw magical power was the strongest among the Valkyries and on par with Rossweisse's own magic power, although Brynhildr admitted that the latter was superior in terms of raw power even without her Mistilteinn Wand.

Master Magician: Brynhildr has extraordinary skills in Norse Magic, her knowledge and experience surpassing all other Valkyries including Rossweisse who is a Norse magic genius. She can perform offensive, defensive, and supportive magics, either releasing full burst magic blasts, enhancing her allies, and trapping her opponents. Her activation speed and precision is superior to that of Rossweisse, who stated she surpassed her in all magic aside from sealing, barrier magic, and magical power.

Master Swordswoman: Aside from magic, Brynhildr is also skilled in swordsmanship, being able to fight against Rossweisse wielding the Mistilteinn Wand.

Equipment

Magic Sword: Brynhildr wields a magical sword which she can enhance with her magic by imbuing it with various elemental attributes such as fire and light.
