Stormarksgothi,

I'm currently working on new Army of Stormark Regiments for the Thanedoms that located on the archipelago known as Freyja's Necklace.

Could you provide Me with objects, creatures, individuals that are associated with Freyja?

Objects, creatures and individuals associated with Freyja:

Obviously, her necklace, Brisingamen.

The 4 dwarves who Freyja slept with in return for making Brisingamen: Nordri, Sudri, Austri, and Vestri

Cats, her wagon is drawn by 2 cats

As a battle-goddess (a patron goddess of warriors), she also rides on a boar called Hildisvini (Battle-Swine).

She shares the battlefield dead with Odin. Odin claims half and Freya half (as chief of the Valkyries). Also in common with Odin, she practices seidhr (a form of shamanistic magic).

She is a goddess of riches, whose tears are gold and whose "daughters," in the riddle-poetry of the skalds, are precious objects.

She was obviously known to be the embodiment of the holy life-force on some level.

Twin sister of Freyr, daughter of Njord and Nerthus.

Known as the Vanadis (Dis of the Vanir- disir are ancestral female spirits that look after their descendants).

Sometimes said to be the wife of the human Ottar.

Wife of the hero Svipdag (who is sometimes said to have been deified as the god Hermod- who was also the messenger who traveled to Hella to try to bring Balder back to Asgard).

Freyja lives in the beautiful palace Folkvang ("field of folk"), a place where love songs are always played, and her hall is Sessrumnir.

Stormarksgothi,

What are Valkyries?

From The Troth:

Valkyries
"Choosers of the Slain," these maidens were originally seen as frightful battle-spirits accompanying Odin in his work of marking men for death in war. They appear in a more pleasant aspect in Valhall, where they carry out the traditional womanly duty of bearing drink. The idea of the valkyrie as the hero's supernatural lover is probably a product of romanticization by the thirteenth-century scribes who recorded the earlier poems of the heroes Helgi and Wayland (Völundr) and filled in gaps with their own prose; the poems themselves do not recognise these spirit-wives as valkyries. The most famous of the valkyries, known chiefly through Wagner's Ring Cycle, is Brunnhilde, demoted from her position for defending a hero against Odin's will and punished by being forced to fall in love with Siegfried the Dragon-Slayer (Sigurd).

Stormarksgothi,

Do you know many Valkyries there are?

I don't know if there is a set number of Valkyries.

This Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valkyrie lists a number of them, however.

Stormarksgothi,

Do you have a favourite Valkyrie?

No, I don't.

How could I choose just one? :D
