She followed Eldi dutifully, if a bit skeptically. Whether or not he could indeed contain himself had yet to be seen and she wasn't convinced they'd get a meal out of this turkey hunt, but it was worth a try. Although, if he crowed before a bird was down she would have to give up on him entirely. Well, lo and behold. He hadn't been pulling her leg. A gaggle of sleeping turkeys cluttered the branches of a big tree. Valkyrie followed Eldi's lead as he raced forward. She was a few beats behind him to give him time to stir them up so she could knock a few down when the time game. The birds exploded off the tree in a panic. In their haste they beat each other with their wings and several smaller members were nearly beaten out of the air as their companions used the bodies of their neighbors to propel them higher. These individuals were swatted down low enough for Valkyrie to take a swing at them. She jumped and succeeded in knocking one down but before she could go after it, movement in the tree drew her attention away. Valkyrie squinted and then slipped into a low crouch as a pair of feline eyes fixed her with a challenging stare. Apparently Eldi wasn't the only one wit thoughts of a turkey dinner. The snow leopard slunk to the base of the tree and then jumped down. Its sides were thin, its face hollow, and Valkyrie got the feeling hunger was behind the normally shy cat's bold approach. Without taking her eyes off the cat, she called to Eldi, "Eldi, get your turkey. I've got the cat." With her tail held high over her back and her hackles raised, she squared off with the leopard. She bared her teeth at it to give it a chance to back down. The size difference was comical; it didn't stand a chance. Surely it knew that. |
This character has a noticeable Icelandic accent!
Valkyrie also has a female melanistic japanese macaque named Inga. Unless she's mentioned IC it's safe to assume she's not with her master.
It can be assumed that Valkyrie has a bear skull mask hanging from a strap around her neck at all times.
