Northern Heavens (Valravn)

Profile


Valravns are shapeshifters associated with darkness, death, war, and fate. They frequently take on the form of ravens and occasionally a humanoid form, but their most well known form is a monstrous hybrid of a raven and a wolf. They are the descendants of valkyries and wargs, a very rare union.

They are most likely to be found on Svartalfheim or Nidavellir. They are practically never seen on Alfheim, due to the fact that the light magic that permeates the realm is in direct opposition to their dark nature. On any realm they are found, they frequent battlefields, where they consume hearts of the dead.

Valravns are ruthless, known to cause wars simply for their own amusement, then leisurely feast on the fallen afterwards. Worse, they are incredibly difficult to kill and can come back from the dead even if they are ripped to pieces. For these reasons they are almost universally hated.
