Civilian Attire:
Since Hjordis is new to Midgard she generally has a stack of Asgardian clothing, keeping to the furs and chain of her homeland. Looking a bit out of place she has slowly come into contact with tank tops and jeans, finding herself feeling rather naked without some sort of heavy metal protecting her.
Personality:
Hjordis is a rather proud woman. She's somewhat quick witted to those closest to her. Otherwise she seems a bit lost, particularly in her new home of Midgard. She's a quiet warrior type, choosing to observe and then ask questions. She is somewhat quick to action, jumping to the worst possible scenario. Being a female and a warrior has given Hjordis somewhat of a feminist type of feeling. She is constantly challenging males of numerous races to drinking contests or arm wrestling matches.

The Hero
Codename:Hjordis
Hero Attire:
Hjordis' heroine attire is purely Asgardian. She wears a thin cloth tunic under a slightly padded gambeson. Then comes the chain, reaching about mid thigh. She has two plated pauldrons over each shoulder and a leather tabard over it all. She has leather pants and rough leather boots. Plate shields rest on the shin and knee cap of each boot to round it all out.
Powers:
Hjordis is Asgardian, meaning she is far denser and stronger than the average human. Even moreso than the average Asgardian. Valkyrie was stronger than an average female Asgardian, ranking with the men (and sometimes even out ranking them) of her race, able to lift the max of 50 tons. The genes passed to her daughter and have not gone to waste. She has a very quick speed, enhanced further by years of practice. Going to a speed that surpasses any human (about 60mph). Her immune system as an Asgardian is also far superior to a human. Immune to toxins and diseases, Hjordis is an Asgardian goddess through and through. She is even added the healing factor of being Asgardian, meaning small cuts bruises, etc, are quickly abolished with. She is even privvy to the fits of rage that amp up her strength thricefold when in battle. Her reaction time has allowed her to dodge a single shot from a gun, but any sort of consecutive shot is nigh impossible to dodge, leaving susceptible to some damage.
Being born into the Valkyrior also gives Hjordis inherent abilities not privvy to Asgardians alone. Hjordis has her 'Death Perception' which encases the victim in a greenish glow. This tells Hjordis that the persons death is nearing. It can be stopped for a short while, only to be met another time. Hjordis may also teleport to Valhalla with one other dying person to send them on their journey. She may also teleport back, but only in the same area. The teleports take mere seconds and are done via thought.
Skills:
Master Swordswoman- Having two parents who were extremely diverse in swordsmanship, only made Hjordis equally as capapble. Where as her father, Fandral was more fluent in parrying and quick movements, her mother, Valkyrie was fluent in the power attacks and killing blows of the blade. Hjordis has become muli lingual in both forms of swordsmanship. She can deftly block any sort of attack and deliver a devastating crush within a moments notice. She has learned to use both of her swords as one, as opposed to two separate weapons.
Poet/Storyteller- From a young age, Hjordis was always told tales and poetry of the brave and bold by her father. Even growing up, she took a very keen interest in it and has continued her studies further. She finds an extreme interest in the vast knowledge that Midgard has in multiple stories of olde as well.
Un-armed combat-Trained by none other than Octavius Thorson in the art of hand to hand combat, Hjordis is easily able to defend herself in these situations. Much more of a defensive fighter if it came down to it, Hjordis is able to hold her own against other Asgardians in this form of combat. She is a master at grappling and defensive blocks. She chooses to use the grapples that include sweeping her opponents off of their feet.
Special Equipment:
Dragonfang-a magically enchanted sword that belonged to her mother (and for a short time, Sif), Dragonfang is nigh un-breakable. It has the lightness of any other Asgardian weapon, save for it knows it's owner. The only other person(s) who know how to work Dragonfang are Doctor Strange (possibly children of) and Sif herself.
Fimbuldraugar- Hjordis' trusty rapier is actually passed down to her from her father. Giving her sword after he felt that she could properly defend herself with it, it as been in her possession for seven years. It has become a part of her and she treats it with the highest respect.
Weaknesses:
Hjordis was always taught as a young girl to nurture life and protect the weak. This is a huge stone for her to cross as she will stay by a fallen heroes side until they are well again. This could cause her to become surrounded and in the long run, die. She would never kill another human, seeing as she out weighs and is many times stronger than any of them.
Due to her intense love of mythlogical stories and whatnot, Hjordis harbors a hidden love for...well finding a lost love. She would never tell anyone of this, but she's somewhat of a hopeless romantic and hopes to find her love in another one day. She os on a quiet search for the male who can harbor her love.
Most Heroic Achievements:
At the age of twenty three she, in a set army, held off a Surtur demon from entering the bridge.
History:
Born to the Asgardian warrior Valkyrie and Fandral, of the Warriors Three, battle was in Hjordis' blood. Much less in her namesake. As the first child, Hjordis was doted upon by both parents. She found a trusting friendship in Octavius Thorson, seeing how both of their father's were close. She was brought to many royal happenings with Octavius' family due to both her parents standing in Asgard.
From an early age, Hjordis found a strange attraction to swordplay. She was easily able to handle the weight and movement of said weapon. She quickly fell into a hard regime of practice and play. Still hanging with her 'brother' Octavius, he taught her some useful hand to hand combat moves. She attended her studies as a dutiful student and eventually earned her way into one of the top warriors.
Her time did not end there however. Her mother bestowed Dragonfang to her, saying that Hjordis would need it in her great battles. At the age of twenty she enlisted herself into a defense army, guarding the bridge against invasions. One fateful day a Surtur demon decided to rampage the bridge. Hjordis held her ground, along with numerous other Asgardians. They eventually fought back the demon, causing it to retreat. It was after this that Hjordis earned her way into outside travel from Asgard.
She joined the Warriors Three on a few quests, finding the excitement she needed to sate her appetite. She reveled in the different planes and new creatures she came across. Her latest quest took her to Jotunheim where she stumbled upon a massive plot involving Midgard. Knowing that Octavius spent a good chunk of his time there she decided to head off to warn him and his fellow JLAers about the impending doom.
