Overview
Valkyrie is a hero trainer in Steel Canyon in the Blyde Square section located at the base of the large statue in the middle of the square. Her coordinates are (-3125, -84, -508). Her location is marked on the map as a contact.
Valkyrie and Janet Kellum are sisters. Their careers as an archeologist and FBSA agent took them in radically different directions. Since Valerie was injected with nanites when Crey tried to steal her greatest discovery, the two sisters have become reunited in one cause: taking down Crey. Janet’s love of her sister has motivated her to help the heroes of Paragon City in their attempts to finally bring Countess Crey to justice[1].
Recently, it was revealed Valkyrie's spear is from War Earth, the same world Battle Maiden hails from[2]. It is not known how the weapon arrived to Primal Earth, or if any more such weapons exist.

Background
History
Valerie Kellum was an up-and-coming archeologist exploring Scandinavia when she discovered what she first took for an ancient spear. A more careful examination led to the realization that the spear had a technological component. She traveled around Europe looking for ideas about its origin and ended up in a local Crey facility. When a Crey security team tried to take the weapon from her it activated and injected Valerie with advanced nanites that transformed her into Valkyrie, an extraordinary warrior with a completely different personality. She broke free and traveled to Paragon City where Positron is helping her come to terms with her new identity.
