Hi there Treasure vault, going to to try another fanfic. Lets see how this goes...
Prologue:
"Is that all?" A deep, slightly sympathetic voice asked.
"Yes sir. Thank you for allowing me to do this, I'll start recruiting immediately." A younger, female voice replied, the excitement was barely hidden under a veil of professionality.
"Then I guess you're free to start recruiting, when you have the required minimum, I'll see what I can do about getting you a mission. Be careful, I'm sure you know what happened last time."
"Don't worry, I know what happened then, I won't make that same mistake."

Corvina's mind raced as she steps out of the command building. With her plan approved, she could finally stop hiding in public. She longed to do it now, but held herself back. She strode towards her office. Everything looked a little brighter. The auction house employees didn't look so bored, the hall of heroes guards didn't either. Even the sun seemed to make everything else a shade brighter. She walked into her apartment, and made a beeline straight to her computer. The quicker she could get the message out, the quicker people would respond.
To any Valkyrie,
I am very glad to tell you that I will be forming a regiment composed fully of Valkyrie. Those who wish to volunteer, please report to the Hall of Heroes entrance at the end of the week, after lunch. Our goal is to provide support quickly and swiftly. Nobody else can traverse the clockworks like us, and let's take advantage of that. I hope to see you all at the
Sincerely,
Corvina Quilon

This will be adding some depth to Valkyries, the rare, winged knights of the Spiral Order. On Isora sometime before the Morai Wars, a small portion of the population were born with wings. Some believed a supernatural force had blessed them with the added limbs, others said that experiments from scientists led to the mutations. No matter the reason, Valkyries were looked upon as outsiders. On cradle, Corvina Quilon aims to create an all Valkyrie regiment. An idea that failed awhile ago, that she was part of.

I will give you two of my Valkyrie characters, Valkyrie overseer Xinde and her young male student, Midnight. They both belong to the blue star conclave, one of the most powerful Valkyrie conclaves known to Isoran. ( the symbol on Midnight's head is the conclave's insignia ) Blue star Valkyries are often dispatched to normal Spiral Knight squads to provide assistance in battle against fiends and undead (where their knowledge comes useful), the Blue Star Conclave strictly forbids it members from having love relationship with anyone outside the conclave, Valkyries or otherwise.
Name: Xinde
Age: 4000+
Gear: Cold Iron destroyer - a CIV / Divine avenger hybrid, a cold iron great sword with DA attack pattern.
Raging Griffon - an ancient variant of the gilded Griffon, nothing special except for extra ornaments on the gun frame.
Valkyrie overseer armor - a set of venerated Valkyrie raiment, no abnormal stats
Appearance/Costume/Personal Color: A cold blonde woman with hairs that are near bleached, her Valkyrie raiment is tattered in stitches and sew line. A sign that she has seen a lot of combat. Her face is pale and devoid of blood, much like her fellow Valkyries from the Blue Star conclave. Xinde's eyes are glowing blue, a sign of her aging but also her untainted spirit.
Wings: Xinde is very old for a Valkyrie, her past are wiped by the stains of time and her wings tell you as much, the once glorious ivory wings are now grey, covered in dusts and old blood stains from forgotten battles. Her wing span is twice as long as any adult Valkyrie, a testament to her greatness and wisdom.
Personality: Xinde is a harsh woman, always making sure that the youngsters of the Blue Star conclave does not violate the sacred law and become Fallens. One of the latest offender, Midnight, was kept under heavy surveillance by Xinde due to his latest love affair with a male squad captain he was recently assigned to. However, deep inside her heart, Xinde knew that she was an offender just like Midnight for falling in love with her own captain, Vanguard Orza during a great fiendish invasion on planet Isora almost 4000 years ago. Orza died during that ancient war, leaving the young Xinde to silently mourn for his death, some say the longing for captain Orza was the reason why Xinde lived for so long. She is often seen praying at the Blue Star monastery's sacred altar for her captain's return. But he never returned.
Important Notes: Xinde still holds an old cold iron crest necklace, a token Valkyries present to their leader as a sign of loyalty. This one was given to Orza and was probably recovered after the fiends were driven off.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Midnight
Age: 16
Gear: Cold iron Carver - with initiate ceremonial design.
Strike needle - normal strike needle with a platinum coating, says to bring good luck when fighting fiends.
Initiate Raiment - male version of the Valkyrie raiment with some purity seals attached on it.
Appearance/Costume/Personal Color: Much like his fellow Valkyries from the Blue Star conclave, Midnight appears to be Aryan with his hair being xanthous (bright yellow). He is really feminine even for a Valkyrie with long eye lashes, smooth jaw and slim nose.
Wings: being a young teenage Valkyrie, Midnight's wing span is shorter than the average adult, his white wings always shines with a blue sheen.
Personality: Midnight is a pure and good-natured boy with very feminine appearance and have questionable sexual orientation. Midnight is a loyal member of the blue star conclave and passed his initiation test without failing. Although the good grades made Midnight a promising young Valkyrie among his peers, he was rumored to be sexually confused and was tortured by the pressure he received from the conclave's hierarchy. Midnight does not react well to the presence of the Swarm energy, often suffers from puking and stomach churn during in deep clockwork expeditions.
Important Notes: Xinde was assigned to monitor Midnight's growth during this important period of his life (puberty) to make sure that he doesn't derail from the conclave's strict code of conduct. Immoral thoughts are often believed to be a contributor in a Valkyrie's descension (turning into a Fallen).
