Thyra The Valkyrie - Gauntlet Series

---

Game: Gauntlet Series

Machine: Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, PC, Sega Megadrive, Arcade, and many others

A classic female character, pre-dating Xena (Warrior Princess) by about ten years. When it comes to men, she's a picky one is our Thyra. She wasn't interested in Thor (too muscle bound and stupid) while wise old Merlin probably didn't have a prostate gland to work with. The Elf? Green tunics? Forget it.

Sowho could tame the mysterious Valkyrie? Rumour has it that the ultimate prize of Gauntlet was to find the key that would open Thyra's chastity belt. Although her chastity belt is probably wired up to some horrible trap. A bit like a mouse trap. But worse. Anyway, Thyra's a pioneer pixel chick. Hurrah!
