Valkyrie! We figured we'd point out some aspects of the race to explain things better!
Valkyries above all else, think males as being the weaker sex. The strongest, most honored male is still lower than the weakest, craven of a female. They will ALWAYS side with the females. Valkyries have a power which entices men, making males fall in love with them, or at least lust for them. This is a power blessed by their Goddess, to aide them in life and their struggles. They believe they are a band of sisters, a family. They protect each other. This doesn't mean they don't disagree or hate each other, it just means they consider everyone family of sorts. You can hate your family! Once upon a time the valks viewed mating as a weakness. The only exception was to mate a fellow female warrior. However, the Goddess Synthia has spread word herself, letting the Valkyrie know that the old ways must be abolished and a new path forged. A male may yet make himself worthy through a challenging ceremony that both the male and his potential mate must go through in order to prove themselves worthy still. Any valk that mates to a male outside of his ceremony does not have the Goddess' blessing, and will be cast out of the tribe. Combat valks have armor, non-combat valks do not have armor. Typically, the ones in armor are the fighters, while the rest take care of everything else. Aka historians, messengers, temple workers, etc. One type of valk is not considered better than the other type; all aspects are needed to make life run smoothly. The difference between an ebil gal and a neutral gal is hard to tell. Mostly, it's how they treat the males. Ebil ones will treat them as slaves, and tend to be a little more abusive to the male meat. Neutral gals will treat them as servants and pets, and will be stern, but generally nice to them. In a weird sort of way. Ebil valks are considered fiercer, wild, and quick to leap before they look, while the neutral ones are calmer, and look before they leap... while taking their time to do so! Non-female valks running around the homeland tend to be the offspring of valk/male or valk/nonvalk relations. They are often pitied and treated like family pets or children. Not that they're treated bad, it's just sad they didn't get to be valks. Males are never allowed on the prayer grounds. Valks are the only ones who get to work in the temple. Other females can come in to pray, meditate, and speak to the goddess, but only valkyries can handle anything holy.

Valk RankingValks have their own ranking systems within their community. Unlike the mountain valks, the swamp valks are highly disorganized and don't have an actual system. They believe that if someone wishes to become a more important person, then it is upon them to become that person. Other than the tribe leader, each swamp valk believes that she is her own person, and answers to no one but the Goddess and her kin. That being said, instead of rankings, the swamp valks have specialties. Obviously, these can be far and wide ranging, with just about anything a valk can title herself with. Prayer. Poisons. Cooking. Teaching Children. Scouting. Anything. As such, there aren't descriptions for the specialties. Instead, it is up to your valk to prove who she is and what she contributes to the tribe as a whole. Should another Valk claim the same specialty, then it is up to the two valks to hash out who is senior based upon their skill sets. Typically, this is done more or less with the other valks in the tribe aware of what is going on, and much to the amusement for everyone but the loser. The victor can then claim the loser as an apprentice, as they obviously have a lot to learn, or if they are unworthy, state they must claim a new specialty. In order to claim a specialty, post this form with your valk's cert, and a declaration in character from your valk. Where the underscore is, please delete it and state your specialty.

Males Males of this Valk tribe are kept an eye on! As such, every single one will be listed here. Now granted, typically, males are also used as breeding stock. Males who give daughters, or Valk daughters are more sought after versus those who give male children (aka worthless ones). Just because a male is chosen to assist someone doesn't mean he'll be breeding with her, doubly if he keeps giving Valk daughters. As such, every star after his name shows how many Valk daughters that male has given!
Males 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
To sign your male up to be a Valk captured prize, merely post his picture, his pros and cons. Feel free to RP plot and frankly, breed plot within the community. Not that we're limiting your flings or anything, merely making plot behind the babies he'll be having here~ <3

Mating Ceremony Once upon a time, the Goddess Synthia decreed that any valk to mate to a male was no daughter of hers, and they were cast from the tribe of valkyrie to be shunned for the rest of their lives. However, change is on the wind. The Goddess Synthia has spoken a new word, and as all valks know, her word is law. She has spoken to the daughters of the swamp tribe, this new information.
Valks may mate to males.
However, a male must be carefully selected and prove himself worthy of his mate before even beginning the ceremony. It is required that the male in question be a slave to the valk prior to settling upon this agreement, so she may come to understand who it is she is shackling herself to. Once the valk has decided that the male is worthy enough to become her mate, she may come to the tribe leader (to be NPC'd)
How the Ceremony works! It's all done in character, RP'd right here in this thread! It's supposed to be a very tough task for both the valk and the male, and people are supposed to fail more often than not. However, we're not out to stop you from uniting your valk and male in a mating fashion while staying in the guild, so you may try as many times as you like! We'll skip a few days ahead IC each time a round is completed, so we should be able to get it done in one go.
The IC ceremony is actually very simple. The valk and the male must survive a series of poisons. The tribe leader will currently be NPC'd by myself, of course, and will be the one implementing the poison. The valk is proving that mating to a male has not weakened her, and the male is proving that he is worthy of the female. As long as they stay awake, they pass. If they don't, they recover, and try again when they are better. There are three rounds to a ceremony in the swamp tribe, and the odds are actually better for you in each round! It's more of a 50% chance, but you have to do it three times instead of one! Both the male and the female roll one 10 sided die for each round. As long as the combined number is between 11-20 they pass that round. Pass all three rounds, and you are allowed to become mates! If you don't pass, well you auto win the second time!
Once you have passed, the tribe leader will give you Synthia's blessing, and the two are mated on the spot. The male can never be sold or traded to another valk. He must swear to always serve his mate, and to always defer to her. His actions are a reflection upon his mate, and thus he must always follow the rules. Should he break any rules, he brings disfavor upon his valkyrie, and her stance within the tribe will be affected by it. Should he be kidnapped, she must rescue him. Should he run away, she must hunt him down. Should he disgrace her past the point of return, she must kill him. That is the word of the Goddess Synthia, and her word is law.
Mated Pairings None at the moment!
