Homebrew Valkyrie, From Valhalla Species Details
The Valkyries are the finest warriors and the first line of defense in Valhalla. You are one of these and get to have all the benefits, and detriments, that come along with it. To be a Valkyrie means to accept the role of a fighter who believes deeply in the valor and honor of the battlefield. At the same time, it is to accept your place in the world as what you are. Tending to not be born normally but made, there is not much room for emotion. This may make you take longer to pick up on social cues as well as being very blunt in conversation. Maybe the amount of time on the material plane has taught you more about this, what it means to be alive? That is up to you.

Valkyrie, From Valhalla Traits
Use the Racial Trait's of the Valkyrie wisely, though limited being able to fly can be game breaking for some DM's. Be sure to discus with yours before choosing this Race.
