Valkyr/Main

"This is Valkyr, the tormented, the experiment. Valkyr was crafted from torment, Tenno. Take control of her rage."

- Lotus

Release Date: November 20th, 2013

Valkyr is a berserker-themed Warframe. Driven by feral rage, her attacks rend her prey with fury and ferociousness, while her tortured cries break the imposing silence of the Tenno presence. Valkyr was unleashed in Update 11.

Component blueprints drop from Alad V (Themisto, Jupiter).

Trivia

 * "Valkyr" is derived from Valkyrie. According to Norse Mythology, the Valkyries were a host of divine creatures in service of the gods that brought the "chosen" among the fallen up to Asgard (where the gods resided). It was generally believed that dying in battle with your honor intact was a sure way of being chosen.
 * She is the second female Warframe whose base stats defy a trend of fragility; despite having low shields she has the highest armor value out of all the Warframes.
 * Both her Warframe Profile video and in-game description state that she's a product (or possibly a failure) of the Zanuka Project.
 * Valkyr is the only Warframe which has human-like audible cries, voiced by the Digital Extremes community coordinator, Megan.
 * She is not the first Warframe to introduce human vocal expressions, however, which is Banshee.
 * Valkyr is the 2nd Warframe to replace Alloy Plates with Circuits when building. (The 1st was Saryn.)
 * Valkyr in many ways resembles and may be based off a feline or wolverine, if only vaguely:
 * Hysteria gives Valkyr a set of claws.
 * An alternate helmet, Bastet, is named after an Egyptian Cat-headed Goddess of Home and Family.
 * Equipping a whip (Lecta or Scoliac) while using Hysteria gives the appearance of a tail, though it may possibly be just a bug.
