4. Which charm gives speech to the dead in AC Valhalla?
The Skull Souls charm summons voices from death’s realm.
5. Is Ceolbert dead in Valhalla?

The Death Speaker, a powerful bow, can be purchased from any merchant trader for 360 silver.
7. Why is Eivor called “Wolf-Kissed?”
Eivor is called “Wolf-Kissed” because of a scar she received as a child. After the death of her parents, she was left to fend for herself, leading to a close encounter with a wolf.
8. Why do they call Eivor Havi?
Eivor is called Havi because she is the reincarnation of Odin, also known as Havi in Norse mythology. This is part of the larger Isu storyline within Assassin’s Creed lore.
9. Is Eivor a god in AC Valhalla?
Eivor is not a literal Norse god. Instead, she is a reincarnation of the Isu Odin. The Isu were an advanced civilization predating humans in the Assassin’s Creed universe.
10. How do you not betray Sigurd?
To maintain loyalty with Sigurd, avoid making decisions that contradict his values. Specifically:
- Leave cargo behind when prompted.
- Wait until Randvi is separated from Sigurd before pursuing a romance with her.
- Do not overrule Sigurd’s decisions as Jarl when back in Norway.
11. Why is Basim mad at Eivor?
Basim, the reincarnation of Loki, is driven by revenge for the treatment of his son in the Isu past. He seeks to eliminate those connected to the events that transpired long before the Viking Age.
12. Why is Eivor’s body in Vinland?
Eivor’s body ended up in Vinland because she was the first explorer to discover the region, over a century before Leif Erikson. She ultimately passed away there.
13. What happens if you let the animus choose?
If you let the Animus decide, you’ll play as female Eivor for the majority of the game, except in Asgard and Jotunheim, where you will appear as male Eivor.
14. Is Eivor originally a girl?
While both genders are valid, female Eivor is considered the canonical version. The game’s narrative justifies the gender discrepancy by attributing it to the Animus’ interpretation of Odin’s DNA within Eivor’s bloodline.
15. Who betrayed Eivor’s clan?
In the Soma questline, the traitor is Galinn. He betrayed Soma to fulfill his deluded visions.
