"The Valkyrie are legend. Elite warriors of Asgard, sworn to defend the throne."

―Thor^[src]

The Valkyrie were a group of female Asgardian elite warriors that served as Odin's special force.

History

"I used to want to be a Valkyrie when I was younger, until I found out you were all women."

―Thor to Valkyrie^[src]

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.

Trivia

• The sacrifice of the Valkyrie was honoured with a monument in the Einherjar barracks within the City of Asgard.

Behind the Scenes

• The seal of Valkyrie was designed by Taika Waititi.
