The Einherjar are Norse warriors who had died an honorable death. Their home is Valhalla, which is what their linked to in Asgard. The Einherjar were created by Odin in order to prepare against Ragnarök.
The Einherjar (which means "Army of one" and "Those who fight alone") are warriors who have been admitted to Valhalla, the majestic hall of Asgard by the Valkyries after they die in combat. It also consists of legendary heroes and kings. Once there, they eat their fill of meat from the nightly-resurrecting beast, known as Sæhrímnir and wash it down with mead brought to them by the Valkyries. The mead came from the udder of the goat Heiðrún. The Einherjar train daily for the coming of Ragnarök, where they will battle at the field of Vígríðr, which is where the final battle takes place.
The Einherjar are dead warriors who have pale white skin and have black marks over their eyes as a result of receiving the All-father's blessings. In addition, their eyes are violet pink. Some einherjar are shown to wear armor pieces on random parts of their upper body while others wore full-body armor with helmets that completely covers their faces, save for their eyes.
The Einherjar serve as a military force for Asgard and the Aesir and are an antagonistic faction all throughout the Nine Realms. When Atreus was taking the tour with Odin in Asgard, he witnesses the Valkyries Hrist and Mist training Einherjar in the art of combat and Odin giving his blessings to new Einherjar. Later, in the Black Thunder pub, many Einherjar were seen drinking and chatting with each other. When Thor unknowingly starts a fight with a drunken Einherjar, the latter falsely believed that it was Atreus and the fight immediately erupted into a full-on brawl. In the aftermath, many Einherjar were killed while some of them were left injured. Whenever they fall in battle, they return to Valhalla, allowing them to be reborn in an endless cycle, giving the Aesir an endless army to fight for them. In the aftermath of Ragnarök, most of the Einherjar were killed at the hands of the armies of the other realms. In the aftermath of Ragnarök, some Einherjar were able to survive and on the orders of Gná, went to Niflheim to guard a large prison, which is where Tyr has been imprisoned.
Asgard's finest. A warrior of Midgard wants nothing more than to fall in battle. It would ensure passage to Valhalla, a promised land where the honorable and wretched alike are sent. There, Odin selected the best and gave them another chance to die for him. Thus, creating the Einherjar.
It's diabolically genius if one would like to view it that way-instill enough devotion within a bloodthirsty group of undead killers, and you guarantee yourself a near endless supply of fodder for your war.
Einherjar Warrior
One might look at this and think it's a bit repetitive in nature-we already know Einherjar were warriors during their lifetimes. But I can assure you the distinction is quite keen. Just as one rises in rank in an army, so too the Einherjar. Odin may have changed the qualification since my days in Asgard, but the title of Warrior used to be awarded around the third of fourth resurrection, depending on how glorious the previous death was deemed. Didn't count if you offered yourself on purpose, of course. I wonder if any other contingencies were added when he found out they were staging battles for sport in Svartfalfheim...
Einherjar Archer
Odin's experimentation with Bifröst energy continues to cause us trouble. This time it's in the form of long-range bolts shot from his Einherjar Archers. Not that I like to give him credit for anything, but it only makes tactical sense-imbue the beasts, imbue the short-range weapons, imbue the arrows. Though it does present a break with tradition-previously, Einherjar manifested their weapons according to their choices in life. Now that Odin removed that limitation from the afterlife, where do his ambitions cease?
Einherjar Tamer
These members of Odin's army specialize in wrangling fearsome beasts to their will and can summon them to their aid in combat-never a welcome complication.
Einherjar Rider
At one point, Odin found it worthwhile to train Einherjar to ride Graðunger into battle-or perhaps it was the other way around, training Graðunger to be ridden by Einherjar. Either way, some training was involved. Quite a bit, if Graðunger are as wild as they've always been. Mistrustful creatures, and rightfully so, given that they've been all but forced into servitude by Odin.
Einherjar Brute
Hardly a more fitting title than Brute, although perhaps applicable to more than one rank of Odin's soldiers. If memory serves, this title was granted if a newly- incarnate Einherjar completed some feat or other. Last I heard, it was accomplished by wearing the jaws of ten enemies that had been ripped from their owners' heads with their bare hands.
