Magic
[ Requip : The Vanguard ]Durasteel Armor - A lightweight, durable, plate armor with kinetic padding.Ventilation Mask - A light weight clip on mask that allows the wearer to breath in the worst of conditions. Also renders them immune to toxic fumes and any magical and/or curse related effects that require inhaling.EMP Grenades - A short range pulse bomb that cleanses an area of magic. Mages caught in the blast radius will have their magic affected for up to 15 minutes.Sentry Turret - A small, light weight, turret that hovers in the deployed area. Specific targets can be established by the user/owner. Projectiles vary depending on the distance to said target. After sustaining a large amount of damage it explodes knocking back those caught in the area.→ Rockets, long range projectiles that explode on contact.→ Flamethrower, close range.Micro-bits - Mercury-alloy devices that remotely monitor and track target's. They're self repairing. Once they've taken a sample of a target's magic they can replicate, housing an adapted version of it. Due to the metal they're made of, their outer shell is toxic.
Tyr’s Legacy Armor -
Equipped with grav boots to always keep her grounded the form fitting armor allows for a greater freedom of movement. Not limiting her battlefield to the ground. Able to walk both on any surface she might choose including walls and ceilings. Lined with the latest Asgardian technology. Giving her greater control over her own gravity.
Hel's Bargain (Armor) -No one can truly escape death. Not without paying the price. Hel's boone wasn't a gift, it was a bargain. When in this armor Valkyrie is able to see the souls stuck in limbo and bound for Helheim. As someone who has been touched by it they're drawn to her and linger in her presence. It also grants her immunity to fire based magics/curses. Wearing it requires a large amount of magic and (at current) Valkyrie can only maintain it for a short amount of time.
Guns;
Valkyrie uses a combination of firearms and three varying types of ammunition,Standard (Shrapnel) - A compressed bullet of magic able to penetrate through most materials. The outermost shells shatter during impact to cause additional damage.Incendiary - Targets burst into flames when shot. Weakening armor. Has an explosive burst when enemies are ignited that causes an explosion with a range of 2.50 meters. Increases overall weapon damage by 15%.Cryo - Flash freezes and shatters unprotected enemies, slows down armored/shielded targets.
Scorpion (Pistol) -
A light weight, six shot, weapon. It fires low impact projectiles with a strong adhesive that sticks to targets on impact. Similar to sticky grenades. Exploding approximately after 3 seconds later or when agitated.{Unique Abilities}Proximity mine, When fired onto a surface it converts into a makeshift mine that explodes with enemy contact and/or proximity.Flash bang, Instead of the usual projectile a harmless doppelganger is fired creating a large burst of light. Disorientating those caught in the blast.
Black Widow (Sniper Rifle) -
A powerful, long range weapon, with a precision scope.{Unique abilities}Scoped and dropped, Lines up one powerful shot with deadly accuracy. The overall magic/power of the shot will build up slowly overtime. Once fired a cool down period is triggered.Scratched one, Fires off three consecutive shots aimed at key parts/weak points on the body.Infiltrator, the further away from the target the more powerful the shot.
Odin’s Call (Sniper Rifle) -
A compressed rifle that fires bullets of compressed electricity that directly target magical energy sources including a person's origin. Varying from person to person too many shots can cause them a source to overload. Exploding on impact with the bullets. Side effects may include MD (Magical Deficiency).→ Seen with the Tyr’s Legacy Armor{ Unique Abilities }Scatter, heat sinking bullets that seek out several different targets at the same time. The shot always lands.Valhalla, non lethal mode any shot fired will still harm but will be unable to cause irreversible damage e.g. death. Allies who are shot with the weapon can also be healed of minor injuries. The sniper rifle glows blue.Ragnarok, lethal mode. Shots fired (if successful) disintegrates matter, both organic and inorganic, until nothing remains. The sniper rifle glows red.
Vanguard (Assault Rifle) -
Fires a two round burst that increases in accuracy the more you shoot. Holding the trigger causes a continuous hail of bullets to be fired.{Unique abilities}Burn out, holding down the trigger Valkyrie unleashes a storm of bullets into chosen area. The increased accuracy and speed of the bullets causes the gun to overheat.Choke hold, increases the firing range of the gun scattering the ammunition more erratically. Increasing the power of the burts.
Claymore (Shotgun) -
Suited for close combat only it produces powerful shots that is able to rip through even the toughest armor. It was once believed that the kick back from this weapon could break the average person's arm.{Unique abilities}Adrenaline rush, instantly reloads/cool the weapon ready to fire off too quick consecutive shots dealing additional burst damage. Triggers a cool down period.Melee Mania, attached to the main base of the weapon is a short, sharpened, knife. After firing off a round following up with a melee attack drastically reduces reload time between shots.
Hel's Bargain (Machine Gun) -A large, oversized, gun that produces an invasive/corrupting Hell fire. It burns hotter than your average flame and is especially effective against the undead/demons. The magic stored within the weapon (and armor) is a strain of potent Devil Slayer Magic. Rounds can be fired in short bursts and/or a continuous stream.→ Seen with the Hel's Bargain Armor{Unique Abilities}Reaper, calls upon the lingering souls in the surrounding area to use as hosts for the flames. Temporarily allowing them to interact with the living and making them viable to the naked eye.Boil, burns the magic found within the surrounding area/atmosphere.Ignite, whilst equipped Kinetic Fields take on a deep red colour and burn with the same intensity of the flames. Harshly scolding those touched by them (except for the caster/person of origin). The flamethrower attachment for the Sentry Turret can also be modifiedInfestation, burns caused by this weapon/fire spread. Constantly scolding those who have been inflicted by it over a period of time.→ Hel’s Take-OverThis powerful form can only be accessed while the Hel’s Bargain set (armor and gun) is equipped. It activates when 90% of Valkyrie’s current magic supply has been used up acting as a second wind. However, the power can be addictive and unpredictable. Swapping out the Hell fire for Hel’s Ice. This ice exists in the limbo between life and death. It is cruel, unrelenting, and deathly. Not even the undead are safe from it.While under Hel’s Take-Over, Valkyrie’s hair turns pitch black. Her skin becomes so pale it mirrors that of a corpse and the blood in her veins freezes solid. Just one touch from Valkyrie whilst in this form can freeze a person on the spot. Their souls destined for Helheim to join Hel’s army.Each of the unique abilities from the Hel’s Bargain carries over to the blessing. Converting to Hel’s Ice. The effects of each remain largely the same but are for more potent than their fiery counterparts.
[ Kinetic fields ]
Energy constructs that vibrate at a molecular level allowing them to repel other sources of magic. The magic stored within the main barrier can be released into other forms.Barrier, a thin shield that wraps it way around the entirety of her body. An added layer of protection.Burst, throwing a cluster of kinetic fields they scatter. Triggering a series of detonations, colliding (and possibly toppling) any enemies in their path.Unleash, releasing the (pre existing) barrier causes a huge explosion of kinetic fields within the surrounding area. Doing this depletes the barrier which will require a small amount of time to recharge.Crash, charges at a target while encased in the Kinetic barrier knocking enemies/targets off their feet from the sheer force.Backlash, generates a shield that reflects spells/projectiles back to the source. Will break after a short period depending on the amount of damage it has taken.Capture, wraps an opponent/object in a kinetic field lifting them into the air, dragging them towards the caster. Can capture up to three individuals/items at a time.→ Releash, hurls a captured opponent/object towards a target.Singularity, creates a sphere of kinetic fields (akin to a black hole) that draws in and suspends nearby objects/targets in a gravity well. Trapping them in its orbit.
[ Archive ]Visor - A semi translucent screen that run across the width of her face, covering her eyes. Enhances vision and tracks/detects magic markers. Comes with a built in communication device.→ While in active duty, Valkyrie, partook in an experimental treatment. Both of her eyes were replaced with magic driven devices known as the Hawkeyes. They allowed her to see far greater distances and connect directly with her rifle without the use of her visor. Additionally they also allow her to see in the dark and renders magic/curses that requires eye contact ineffective. However, her visor is still required in certain situations. These devices also contain ArchiveOmniblade - A retractable, lightweight, dagger that is built into the gauntlet. Constructed out of a strong light based magic it can be called upon in and out of her armor.Blueprint - A 3D (digital) prototype. Design information can be downloaded directly to a person's mind.Fire wall - A protective barrier wall that combusts upon an opponents/enemies touch, can be set down anywhere in the immediate area.

[ Guild Spells ]
Vanaheims' Guardians -Stone Giants (jötnar) are scattered around the castle, resting within the walls. Immovable titans. Only waking in times of crisis to protect all that bare the mark.Vanaheim CallingGrants guild members access to the Bifröst in their time of need, calling upon their guild mates for assistance. Those who heed the call are transported to the person's location in a matter of seconds.Vanaheims' IreOnly those who bare the mark are able to remember where the guild is.

Origin
Valkyrie was raised in Crocus solely by her mother, always trying her best to provide for their small family. It didn’t matter if the hours were long and the pay was few so long as they had each other. Alice Naglfar was an angel in her daughter's eyes. Always so filled with positivity despite the struggle that came with everyday life. She’d often tell Valkyrie tales about her father. A brave man that had gone to war and lost his life but that didn’t mean he didn’t love her. He was watching over her always. Even more than she knew.There were few jobs that existed for a young teenage girl and Valkyrie, desperate to help her mother, took the only one available to her. Enlisting in the army at 15. She believed she was following in her (mysterious) father's footsteps. Serving her country and the family that guided them as a nation. Of course her mother protested but she was doing this for her. Working hard and scratching her way through the trials that military life provided each bit of jewel she earned was sent home. She certainly didn’t need it. As a soldier she had a bunk and three meals a day to fill her belly. Any other luxuries weren’t important to her.
In her four years as an active service member she managed to reach the rank of Major having proven herself as a powerful and capable soldier. Serving within the N7 Unit. A collection of highly trained soldiers believed to be the best within their rank. Valkyrie was the youngest to ever join and remains the only woman to have done so. Always willing to take on the tasks no one else would. However shortly after her mother passed away. A break in at their family home had caused an ill fated fight to break out and Alice Vakarian lost her life that night. Justice was the only cause of action open to her. She’d find the men that had done this and take their lives just like they’d taken her mothers. It was only fair. It was only right.Excusing herself from duty she tracked down those responsible. Tyr revealed himself as her father. The War god, also the god of justice, insisted she follow through with her plan. Rather than letting the men go. After all they had murdered his love in cold blood. An eye for an eye. Their deaths weren’t quick. Instead she dragged it out for days and used her contacts within the military to cover it up. However, the men worked as low-level thugs for a local Cartel. Collecting overdue debts. They had been supplied with the wrong address by a scrupulous man that had found himself in trouble after one too many bad trips to the casinos. When they arrived at the house they mistook her for his wife or lover. Using the innocent violin teacher to send a message.Naturally, she had to send her own, eradicating the local cell in a single night. The massacre solidified her reputation. A ruthless hunter who always hit her mark. No matter the cost.
