Every 1000 years, gods of every pantheon convene and hold a conference to decide the fate of humanity by calling a vote to determine whether or not the human race should continue living or go extinct. With the most recent of these conferences having concluded, the gods unanimously decided to put humanity to an end. However, at the very last second, the eldest of the Valkyries, accompanied by the youngest, intervened and made the bold proposition to let humanity have a say in their fate by letting them go against the gods in a series of one-on-one fights to see if they are worthy of continuing to exist. Afraid to let go of their pride, the gods accept this proposal. Thirteen gods will fight against thirteen human champions. The first side to reach seven victories will decide humanity’s fate.

She wears a stylised black and white low cut dress with a crimson pendant at the base of her neck and with short separated sleeves and collar.

On her feet, she wears crimson shoes with high heels.
Personality [ ]
In spite of her cute appearance, she is aggressive, spoiled and arrogant.
Hlökk greatly cares about her appearance, as seen when she spent her time combing her hair while waiting for her turn in Ragnarok, and when she was displeased about being covered with blood after the match. Judging by her room, she appears to like stuffed animals and other cute things. She stubbornly opposed Brunhilde’s plan for her to be partnered with a murderer for the fourth round.
When talking to Jack after the match, she looked at him with pity after seeing his inability to express sadness. Despite this, she apparently started to care about the killer enough to advice him to go recieve medical treatment as soon as possible.

As Hlökk was combing her hair, Brunhilde entered her room, telling her that it was her turn to fight. Hlökk protested and refused to be partnered with a murderer and told her to ask some other valkyrie. Brunhilde ignored Hlökk and told her that she had already made the decision. Jack the Ripper sneaked up behind Hlökk and, after feigning goodwill, grabbed her by the neck. Hlökk started pleading to Brunhilde for help, but Brunhilde just coldly watched them. By betraying her sister, Brunhilde gave Jack the Ripper the ability to perform a forced volund with a valkyrie.
As soon as the fight was over, Hlökk undid the volund. Jack asked how she was feeling, but Hlökk asked how it felt to kill a god. Jack told her that he didn’t know how he felt and the emotion he was feeling was unfamiliar to him. Hlökk called him pitiable for not being able to express sadness. She then noticed that she was covered in blood and immediately started to fly away from the arena to take a shower while suggesting that Jack the Ripper should tend to his wounds.
