In Her Own Words

It was just an eyeball. No one wanted it. The All-father was furious. I could tell because he didn't act angry, but after asking about it. He said little else to me until he locked me away with the rebellious Valkyrja. Even with my raven brothers and sisters telling me about the outside world, I had no idea it would be like this. I stay at UNTIL until ... well, until they throw me out, I guess. As a raven, I could roost anywhere, but now I need a place for 'things', like phone chargers, and clothing.

When I escaped from Odin's prison, I found my kin had all but forgotten me, but I've enjoyed catching up with them, even the crows. Sadly, I have not heard from honored Munin and Hugin since my escape, but I will find them.

UNTIL INTELLIGENCE ASSESSMENT

Current Situation

Valravn is a member of the Urban Legends. She lives at UNTIL HQ, being assigned a small room for storage and access to base facilities. She mostly roosts on the roof in raven form.

History

Valravn was discovered with Valkyrja after an incident in Norway between a group of Vampires and Campers on holiday at what the locals called Raven's Mound. When an UNTIL investigative team arrived with a combat support team from the Oslo field station, Two of the Campers, Arvid and Eva Auber of Masi, Norway were dead from Vampire attacks. One of the campers, an Hed Berdahl, who claimed to have recited a charm he found cared on a stone and released Valravn and Valkyrja, who proceeded to destroy the vampires, in gratitude for their freedom. After a connection to Oslo allowed for translation from Old Norse, the team learned that the Mound was actually a carin, and had been holding themselves and up to a dozen other 'Valkyrja' -- primordial demons of battle who served Odin before pressures from the encroachment of Christianity caused the Aesir to transform the demons into the Shield Maiden Valkyries that most people are familiar with. Those Valkyrja who rejected the transformation were imprisoned by Odin, and only a stolen charm enabled Valravn to teach the raven's outside to carve the charm into stones around the cairn.

Powers and Abilities

Valravn is very closely connected with her Raven heritage. She has achieved mach 1 speeds for very short periods of time. She possesses superhuman reflexes and agility. She has lifted balanced weights of up to two tons. Her skin and muscle are denser than human, indicative of her strength and speed. While she should solid engineering reason she should fly, she is able to and has flown herself across the United States. She also heals from injury at a surprising rate. Valravn has a high level of endurance at normal exertion, though her bursts of super speed can exhaust her.

Valravn also is able to communicate with corvids -- bird such as ravens and crows. Her ability to connect with a single bird seems to extend to a mile, she claims ravens gossip, and in time, she can get messages to anywhere there is a corvid. They also seem to serve as an informational network for Valravn, and she has located people and things around Millennium City using her 'network'. She can call large numbers of crows and ravens, but this seems to be out of a social need and not as some sort of tactic.

Valravn asserts that she is a raven transformed into a person, and not the other way around, and that her form is a product of eating Odin's eye. She can periodically change into raven form, at which its conjectured her armor and weapons are shifted into a pocket space until she shifts back. The longest periods she remains in raven form is when she is roosting. Valravn also seems to have a keen sense of smell that is particularly sensitive to meat, again similar to ravens and crows.

Valravn is a master class swordsman, and uses her enhanced speed and agility to great effect. She is a skilled hand to hand combatant.
