Astrid is missing her right eye, and usually wears an eyepatch to hide it. She refuses to wear a false eye, saying it would dishonor the reason she lost her eye to begin with. [/hider]

[b]Short history/personality:[/b] From a young age Astrid never felt right in her skin, in her life, in anything. She was always forced into activities she didn’t want to do, and while the other girls were having tea parties, she was expected to be rough and tumble.

It all changed one day when she was visiting a museum. She took a wrong turn and ended up in a grand hall, full of dead warriors. In there, her eyes were opened, as she saw a different world, and found out what she truly was.

She found the door to Valhalla. At first she was a simple servant, but she soon caught the eye of Odin and then later Freyja. They noticed the girl wanted to be more than what she had been and gave her the chance to be one of the chosen, a Valkyrie.

She had finally earned her place, when she was tasked with one last thing. She was sent back to her home, to see if she was ready for Ragnarok. She waits for her door to open… while making sure that Astrid can live, while the part she left back in Valhalla, her past, is forgotten.
