Asgard

Asgard, City

The capital of the Nine Worlds, the arcology of Asgard is home to the AESIR, the elite battle-armored troops commanded by Odin. Asgard is home to millions of humans, alfer, and Dvergar, as well as those Jotnar aligned against Utgardt-Loki. Various other organizations have headquarters or branchs in Asgard, such as the NORN Technical Services, the VALKYRIE and the EINHERJAR. YGGDRASIL's central servers are lodged here, as is the tactical AI known as Mimir's Well.

Valhalla

Headquarters of two powerful military organizations, Valhalla is home to the VALKYRIE, the “Choosers of the Slain.” It contains vast medical facilities, both for soldiers who survive battles and for those the VALKYRIE select for Destructive Uploading into EINHERJAR bodies. Production of Saehimnir, the precious life-giving fluid of the EINHERJAR also takes place at Valhalla.

Asgard, Planet

The planet Asgard is a distant, cold world, with little to distinguish it from hundreds of other planets. It has high metalicity, near-frozen seas and plains of ice.
