Valkyrie GeirskögulWP (ワルキューレ・ゲイルスケグル?), Class Name Lancer (ランサー, Ransā?), is a Lancer-class Servant summoned by Ritsuka Fujimaru in the Grand Orders of Fate/Grand Order. Initially only comprising part of the Noble Phantasm release of Ragnarök Lífþrasir of the Servant Valkyrie (ワルキューレWP, Warukyūre?), she later manifests as an individual under the group's Assassin Summer Saint Graph.
Profile
Identity
The Servant Valkyrie consists of three primary individuals, Valkyrie ThrúdWP (ワルキューレ・スルーズ, Warukyūre Surūzu?), Valkyrie HildrWP (ワルキューレ・ヒルド, Warukyūre Hirudo?), and Valkyrie OrtlindeWP (ワルキューレ・オルトリンデ, Warukyūre Orutorinde?). While each would normally possess their own True Name as individuals, the unique circumstances of their summoning leads to them sharing the True Name "Valkyrie." As most of the Valkyries are nearly identical, they share the true name and refuse to be treated as "separate individuals."[1][2]
Due to the circumstances of the Scandinavian Lostbelt, Ritsuka Fujimaru's encounters with the living Valkyries of the Lostbelt formed a bond that allowed their Proper Human History Heroic Spirit counterparts to be summoned to Chaldea under a unique Saint Graph. Bearing no connection to their Lostbelt counterparts, only the Chaldea members who encountered the Lostbelt Valkyries remember them.[1]
With the activation of their Noble Phantasm Ragnarök Lífþrasir, seven other Valkyries temporarily manifest. During the 2022 Summer Event, Scáthach-Skadi allows Valkyrie RindrWP (ワルキューレ・リンド?), Valkyrie ÖlrúnWP (ワルキューレ・エルルーン?), and Valkyrie GeirskögulWP (ワルキューレ・ゲイルスケグル?) to manifest in their Assassin Summer Saint Graph.
Appearance
War maidens dressed in armor and carry their Divine Iron Shield.
Personality
While nearly identical to her sisters, their manifestation has brought about some individuality. [2] According to an anonymous Chaldea employee, Geirskögul is an individualist who strives to be true to herself.

Role

Abilities
Skills
Class Skills
- Magic Resistance (B Rank): Spells with less than three verses are nullified. Even greater magecraft or ritual curses would cause next to no damage to her.[1][2]
- Divinity (A Rank): They possess an aptitude as a Divine Spirit. Valkyrie are the daughters of the Almighty God Odin and their existence can even be called as Demigods; they possess an extremely high aptitude as a Divine Spirit.[1][2] Though Brynhildr, Thrúd, Hildr and Ortlinde are all demigods, Brynhildr's Divine Core is much closer to that of a true goddess. This is because she was the first one and thus the closest to the gods; the ultimate valkyrie.[4]
Personal Skills
- Primordial Rune (— Rank): They possess Runes, a Norse Magic Crest. It differs from those used by modern mages; it’s unique as it conceals astounding power because it was from by the Almighty God. While this skill is Lancer’s skill, Valkyrie uses the mana of various combat supporters. While it might be possible to use offensive magecraft with it, they don’t use it very much because they think that the merit of combat isn’t with magecraft but with flesh and armaments.[1][2]
- Swan Mystic Code (A Rank): They were rewarded with swan-white clothes from the Great God Odin. (This was originally a Noble Phantasm but it was turned into a skill in Fate/Grand Order)[1][2] Once it is activated, the Valkyries are able to engage their light spear's comabt function.[5]
- Fate Weaver (B Rank): As per the 「Njals Saga」, the Valkyries are occasionally depicted weaving with terrifying looms. The girls determined the victory or defeat of the battlefield by ripping up weaved cloth.[1][2]
Noble Phantasm
The Valkyries' Noble Phantasms are Gungnir, Ragnarök Lífþrasir and Svanhvít.[1]
Despite the three Valkyries working together and using their Gungnir's against Brynhildr, they are bastly outmatched in performance, output and equipment. There's so much difference between them, that Brynhildr ended up killing Thrúd and Hildr with a single strike while Ortlinde retreated.[6]
