The Valkyrie were a group of female Asgardian elite warriors that served as Odin's special force.
History
Odin sent the Valkyrie to Hel in order to prevent Hela from escaping. The attack turned into a massacre, as Hela killed every Valkyrie with the exception of Brunnhilde. The trauma of the massacre led her to abandon Asgard and settle on Sakaar.[1]
Trivia
- In the comics, the Valkyrie, or Valkyrior, led by Valkyrie, were killed in a war between Odin and Hela over rulership of Valhalla. Odin restored the Valkyrie to life after he regained possession of Valhalla, but these Valkyrie only have physical forms within Valhalla; outside it, they exist only in astral form.
- The sacrifice of the Valkyrie was honoured with a monument in the Einherjar barracks within the City of Asgard.[2]
Behind the Scenes
- The seal of Valkyrie was designed by Taika Waititi.[3]
