== Trivia ==
In Norse mythology, an Einheri (plural Einherjar; literally "army of one") is a member of the glorious dead - a warrior who has died in battle and been selected by the Valkyries to dwell in Odin's hall, Valhalla. There, they will spend the rest of time in a daily cycle - fighting to the death all day, being raised at sunset, and feasting all night - in preparation for the universe-ending battle of Ragnarok. The [[Syandana|Brising Syandana]] is a reference to the dwarf-made golden necklace [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Br%C3%ADsingamen Brisingamen], owned by the goddess Freyja. Freyja, in addition to the conventional goddess purviews of love and beauty, is also a goddess of war (though to be fair, so is most of the Norse pantheon) - in fact, half of the Valkyrie's battle-dead go not to Valhalla, but to Freyja's hall (or possibly ship) Sessrumnir, in the field Folkvangr. This may indicate that the [[Hildryn Einheri Skin]] represents an Einheri belonging to Freyja's host, rather than one of Odin's.
The [[Blodgard Heavy Blade Skin]] does not appear to have any mythological significance, but it does sound cool. {{SkinNav}}
