Valhalla is a world much like Neopia but the size of Kreludor that lies in an alternate dimension. It is only accessible via portals, that are controlled by the seraphs. There are various Public portal locations in the various main cities of Neopia.
There are three main types of Valhallans.
These are the second reigning class of Valhalla, characterized by possessing three pairs of bird-like wings. They are powerful beings who have an ease to manipulate the energies of Valhalla, and in general are of great wisdom.
Seraphs take up all of the top positions in every aspect of Valhalla, from the House of Lords, to the Generals of the army. They lead, and decide most of what happens everywhere, and respond only to other seraphs and to the Arch-Angels.
If a seraph is found wanting, or proves to be problematic, they may find themselves demoted to Angel status, loosing their privileges and two of their wing sets. This is shameful for a seraph and usually if they are demoted, they retire to Neopia, where no one knows who they were.
Valkyries are special Seraphs, there is about 5-10 (not decided yet) of them. They are all female warriors, the elite of the elite, and are a law unto themselves, reporting directly to the Arch-Angels only. They have legendary powers and skills, and are the guardians of the Realm, usually preferring to work on their own, although they can command any to help them, if they so require. And obedience to them is mandatory.
The seedlings for warriors and teachers, cherubs had a wide variety of wing-types, and not all of them can hide those wings as other Valhallans can. Cherubs are specialists in magic powers, and are trained from a very early age in a special school.
Depending on their virtues and gifts, Cherubs can be assigned to work as part of a Flight, guided by a Seraph, and become part of the Army, or as a teacher for other Cherubs and Angels.
Cherubs are more numerous in quantity to Seraphs but they still do not compare to the amount of angels in Valhalla.
The common citizen, and 'lowest' of categories are the Angels. They have one set of bird-like wings which they can hide at will. As a commoner, they have less standing in political situations, but can rise in status if they prove to have magical aptitude or physical prowess. It is not unseen for Angels to be part of a Flight.
This is the most numerous of the classes, and there are all types of Angels, some not as virtuous as others. As they are not expected to be teachers or fighters, many Angels travel to Neopia to try their luck in a land where they are more respected.
When a citizen of Valhalla commits a grave sin, or is found guilty of treason, they are sentenced to leave Valhalla forever, banished. They are called 'The Fallen', they are stripped permanently of their wings, and cut off from the magical energies of Valhalla. This usually means they are stripped of their powers, and can no longer go back to Valhalla.
Most Fallen are sad, broken creatures that wander aimlessly over Neopia, and are commonly grey pets.
