Claimer of the Heroic Dead (divine)

Svarýr commanders can detect the souls of those recently dead. A commander spends 10 minutes praying over the body of a creature who has been dead for no more than 12 hours; if that creature is worthy of becoming an einherji and of the appropriate alignment, the commander transforms that creature into a Svarýr soldier.

Ravenspeaker (divine)

Valkyries use ravens as servants and spies. They can speak with ravens, and they can have up to three raven servitors who follow their commands. Valkyries can constantly observe whatever their commanded ravens sense.

Constant Spells

A constant spell affects the monster without the monster needing to cast it, and its duration is unlimited. If a constant spell gets counteracted, the monster can reactivate it by spending the normal spellcasting actions the spell requires.

Attack of Opportunity

Trigger A creature within the monster's reach uses a manipulate action or a move action, makes a ranged attack, or leaves a square during a move action it's using.

---

Effect The monster attempts a melee Strike against the triggering creature. If the attack is a critical hit and the trigger was a manipulate action, the monster disrupts that action. This Strike doesn't count toward the monster's multiple attack penalty, and its multiple attack penalty doesn't apply to this Strike.

Recall the Fallen (divine, healing)

Frequency once per day

Trigger An allied creature within 60 feet who isn't a construct or undead is reduced to 0 Hit Points and their dying value is 2 or less

---

Effect The commander restores 8d10 healing Hit Points to the target.

Storm of Battle (divine, electricity)

The commander hurls their spear into the air, creating a massive storm in a 100-foot burst. Spears of lightning rain down upon enemies in the area, dealing 5d12 electricity damage (DC 41 reflex save).

Choosers of the slain and so-called angels of battle, the song of the valkyries plays wherever steel rings against steel. Valkyries are humanoid individuals of impressive physical stature who seek the most epic battles and legendary conflicts so that they can lay claim to the souls of the world's greatest warriors. The valkyries transform these souls into the implacable immortals known as einherjar.

Valkyries most often serve gods of battle and war, though a valkyrie might pledge their service to any deity they consider worthy. Gorum is particularly well known for having valkyrie and einherjar servants, though he isn't the only such deity. Besmara also has valkyrie servitors, and many stories of "ghost ships" actually reference accounts of encounters with ships manned by einherjar crews devoted to the Pirate Queen.
