CODEX

Valkyr was modified into a highly motivated and fearsome killer. She is adept at dealing damage and surviving. Her battle cry strikes terror into all who hear it.

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 11.0 (2013-11-20).

Acquisition

Valkyr's main blueprint can be purchased from the Market. Valkyr's component blueprints can be obtained from defeating Alad V on Themisto, Jupiter.

Previously having thrived among the Tenno in her original Gersemi form, Valkyr is known for her capture and subsequent torment at the hands of Alad V. The Warframe-obsessed Corpus scientist brought Valkyr to his lab on Jupiter, where she was restrained and subjected to harsh experiments, including having her skin flayed. This mad science would greatly expand the Corpus' knowledge of Warframe design and influence the design of their own robotic proxies, and consequently left Valkyr visibly scarred, maddened, and enraged. Upon comparison with Gersemi, it can be seen that Alad V has added forearm restraints and gauntlets relating to the claws in her fourth ability Hysteria. This addition may have been inspired by the armor on her original Prime Design.

Valkyr's skin was used as the outer armor for the Zanuka prototype, Alad V's companion proxy— hybridized with components from several Warframes.

Valkyr's abilities reflect her madness, accompanied by cries of anguish. It is not confirmed whether Gersemi shared these cries, though it is likely, since her Prime version does due to torture at Orokin hands.

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 Valhalla (a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard where the gods resided). It was generally believed that dying in battle with your honor intact was a sure way of being chosen.
- This is further reinforced by her Kara Helmet and her Gersemi Skin, both of their names having ties to Norse mythology.
Thematically, Valkyr's design was inspired largely by felines:
- Valkyr has visible claws on both her hands and feet, and Hysteria{"Description":"Valkyr is imbued with energy and becomes a ball of vicious rage, capable of unleashing a torrent of deadly claw attacks on unsuspecting foes.","Cost":"25","Augments":["Enraged","Hysterical Assault"],"Powersuit":"Valkyr","CardImage":"HysteriaModx256.png","Name":"Hysteria","Introduced":"11","Icon":"Hysteria130xWhite.png","Key":"4","InternalName":"/Lotus/Powersuits/PowersuitAbilities/LastStandAbility","Weapon":"Valkyr Talons"} gives her an additional set of claws on her hands which accents the ability's wild, feral nature.
- Her Bastet Helmet, is named after Bastet, the Egyptian Goddess of Home and Family, who was commonly depicted with a cat's head.
- Her Passive – added knockdown recovery bonus and immunity to heavy landings – belie a feline's agility.
- A now-patched bug unintentionally caused any equipped Whip to extend while Hysteria{"Description":"Valkyr is imbued with energy and becomes a ball of vicious rage, capable of unleashing a torrent of deadly claw attacks on unsuspecting foes.","Cost":"25","Augments":["Enraged","Hysterical Assault"],"Powersuit":"Valkyr","CardImage":"HysteriaModx256.png","Name":"Hysteria","Introduced":"11","Icon":"Hysteria130xWhite.png","Key":"4","InternalName":"/Lotus/Powersuits/PowersuitAbilities/LastStandAbility","Weapon":"Valkyr Talons"} was active, giving the appearance of a tail.
Before Update 23.0 (2018-06-15), Valkyr was the only Warframe which has human-like audible cries, voiced by Digital Extremes community coordinator, Megan Everett.
