Mythology[]
“ | Age -- 1028 Homeland -- Valhalla Occupation -- Valkyrie Special attack -- heals allied units Her name means "Heritage of the Gods." Once a powerful member of the sisterhood of the Valkyrie, Reginleif served Odin by capturing the souls of warriors for his armies in Valhalla. Reginleif fell from grace from unknown events and seeks to redeem herself in Odin's eyes by delaying Ragnarok. The original Valkyries were Brynhild ("mail of battle"), Sigrun ("victory rune"), Kara, Mist, Skogul ("battle"), Prour ("power"), Herfjotur ("war fetter"), Raogrior ("god's peace"), Gunnr ("battle spear"), Skuld ("she who is becoming"), Sigrdrifa ("victory blizzard"), Svava, Hrist ("the shaker"), Skeggjold ("wearing a war axe"), Hildr ("battle"), Hlokk ("din of battle"), Goll ("battle cry"), Randgrior ("shield of peace"), Reginleif ("heritage of the gods"), Rota ("she who causes turmoil") and Gondul ("enchanted wand" or "Werewolf"). | ” |

Trivia[]
- Like most other heroes based on a myth unit, she is not classified as a myth unit in addition to being a hero unit. However, Reginleif is unique in that she benefits from Aurora Borealis like regular Valkyries.
- On the other hand, she gains no benefit from Thundering Hooves, presumably because she isn't mounted, nor from any other general bonuses for myth units.
- Reginleif is also unusual for such a hero in being a practically completely different unit, attacking from range rather than melee on horseback (making her significantly slower). She retains the ability to heal allies, but with stronger effect and longer range, making her arguably more comparable to a Pharaoh. Her defensive stats are quite comparable to her myth sisters.
- Although Reginleif is a hero and is revivable, she does not have the "Hero Soul" when she falls.
