Nora Valkyrie (Pink Thunder Goddess) is a recurring character from the anime-styled cartoon web series RWBY.

Bio[]
Nora Valkyrie is a bubbly, happy-go-lucky, and playful Huntress and student of Beacon Academy, as well as one of the remaining members of Team JNPR after the death of fellow teammate, Pyrrah Nikos. Nora turned up in the village of Kuroyuri as a homeless orphan who had to scavenge for food. Sometime later, she met Lie Ren and the two would eventually become friends. When the village was attacked, Ren used his newly acquired Semblance, and since then, the two promised to protect each other, and have been inseparable ever since. After Nora unlocked her Semblance, both her and Ren honed their skills and were both accepted into Beacon Academy.
Nora uses a fighting style that's built around an overwhelming and explosive physical force. Her weapon, Magnhild, is a war hammer, used for close-ranged attacks and movement, that doubles as a grenade launcher, for ranged strikes. Her Semblance allows her to produce and channel electrical energy through her muscles, which leads to her absurd strength that rival Yang's own immense strength, and although she can still take damage from low level electrical attacks, she is practically immune to them as she can simply absorb it to fuel her strength.
