Capabilities
User with this ability either is or can transform into a Valkyrie, one of a host of female figures who decide who dies and wins in battle. Selecting among those who die in battle, the valkyries bring their chosen to the afterlife of the slain.

Valkyries have abilities relating to their duties as choosers of the fate of slain warriors. They can sense when a warrior is about to die, arrange that this warrior will die, defer the death so the warrior can survive to grow in skill, and they have the power to take the chosen warrior's soul with them. They are able to move around unseen and some can take forms of birds or animals or fly with wings.

As Shieldmaidens, they are skilled fighters, with several lifetimes worth experience.
