An Asgardian by birth, Valkyrie, also known by her real name, Brunnhilde, was selected by Odin to lead the Valkyrior. Among her other aliases are Barbara Norris, Samantha Parrington, Sian Bowen, and Annabelle Riggs who were all host bodies to the spirit of Brunnhilde.

A one-time love interest of her ally Thor, her Riggs alias is openly bisexual. Valkyrie was ranked 30th in IGN's list of "The Top 50 Avengers", and 65th in Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list.
