The Order of Valkyr
Every war has a beginning and ours began with her descent into our realm. In her desire for amusement, the Blood Deity descended from her desolate lands of Absolom to Earth, and with an otherworldly beauty tricked a Son of Adam, and left with his child. Thus began the rapid spread of the descendants of Nyx. At first there was one, hidden with her in the darkness of night. Soon her creation bred more of them and with them came their unending hunger for blood.
At first, there was nothing but whispers. A collection of spilled drunken hushed secrets about creatures so pale they were ghost-like and haunting the shadows at night. That they were so cold you could feel the chill crawl up the spine seconds before death followed. The disappearances of those who wandered home late at night alone became a warning written in blood and bloodless corpses. We named them Vampyr. The larger they became the more organized they became. They terrorized but they were cunning in their ways until they organized. The host of them became the Sacrament of Nyx. Earth became their playground. In the years after the first Regent Scion of Nyx ruled, more hellish monsters spawned and crawled up from an unknown underground. Humans weren’t only at war with Vampyr but their cursed brethren, shapeshifters, witches, and demons alike.
The fate of cities lay in the hands of a sparse few, those who could brave the vicious, challenge the impossible, and were willing to confront their worst nightmares in secret. Fractions of us arose to fight back. Once we were the hunted. But no more. We would become the Hunter. We became known as The Order of the Valkyr. We are an ancient shrouded society of Hunters and Huntresses sworn to protect the Sons & Daughters of Adam. We are the shepherds of our mission; send the Scions of Nyx and their ilk back to Absolom through Death.
