imported>Kennyannydenny As the answer to Sol's question in the summary of the other pages: the reason I used a slash instead of "or" was to prevent the list turning in 'or, or, or, or, or'. But the change is fine by me. For consistancy, i'll do this one too then. Be prepared to be or'ed :) |

Patience, brothers. Soon we will reveal the secrets of Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. This article has been identified as being out of date. Please update the article to reflect recent releases and then remove this template once done. |
|
You cannot know anything. Only suspect. This article contains content from pre-release sources that may or may not be reflective of canon upon release. This article therefore likely contains spoilers. |
|
Where are the paintings? This article is in need of more images and/or better quality pictures from official media in order to achieve a higher status. You can help the Assassin's Creed Wiki by uploading better images on this page. |
|
Ezio, my friend! How may I be of service? This article has a lot of room for expansion. Please improve it with additional information in accordance with the Manual of Style |
Sýnin was a female[1][2] raven that accompanied the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan during the invasion of England in the 9th century,[3] as well as on Eivor's further travels to Ireland[4], the Isle of Skye[5] and Francia to aid in Rollo's siege of Paris.[6]
Skins
In 2020, while reliving Eivor's genetic memories through the Portable Animus HR-8.5, the Assassin Layla Hassan modified the Animus interface to allow for a variety of skins to be applied to Sýnin:
| Image | Name | Description | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Albino | These white ravens are said to have escaped from Hel, Loki's death-bound daughter. | Stable merchant |
|
Angelus Mortis | This dark bird is often compared to the angel of death, who drags souls of sinners to throw them in the frozen lake of guilt. | Reda's Shop or Gothic Pack |
|
Bald Eagle | A most fierce and stubborn bird. Not the sort to keep around any unattended family pets smaller than a pony... | Reda's Shop or Hearthweru Pack |
| Bjartr | An awe inspiring sight, closer to a ray of light given physical form than any actual bird seen anywhere else. | Reda's Shop or Knight ISU Pack | |
|
Black and White | Ravens of this coloring are rumored to see into the realms of the living and the dead. | Stable merchant |
|
Blood Eagle | This raven survived by eating the remains of warriors fallen in battle. | Reda's Shop or Einherjar Pack |
|
Blue Shades | Ravens of this shade have been touched by Mani as he drove his chariot across the night sky. | Stable merchant |
|
Bone Raven | A raven born out of a nightmare of Niflheim. | Oskoreia Festival |
|
Celtic Raven | These black birds are drawn to battlefields and the death of great warrior. It's said their sight is so keen they can see into the underworld. | Stable merchant (Wrath of the Druids only) |
|
Colorful Raven | A raven with all the colors of the wind. | Ēostre festival |
|
Dellingr's Envoy | Reda's Shop or Twilight Pack | |
| Drakeling | Not to be confused with Wyrmlings, whom Drakes in general seem to despise with a singular burning hatred. At least, that is what scholars say... | Reda's Shop or Dragon Knight Pack | |
|
Droninn | Once in the air, this bird seems to stay in the sky for days, monitoring your area and scanning for any danger. | Reda's Shop or Modern Day Pack |
|
Eugene | This bird must have been the companion of the most powerful mage, since it speaks back to you in the human tongue. Sometimes, he even seems to be mocking you. | Reda's Shop or Mystical Pack |
|
Falcon | These sleek birds of prey prefer to kill with their beak over their talons. | Stable merchant |
| Feigr | To say this bird is "near to death" may be a very optimistic way of stating the obvious. | Reda's Shop or Draugr Pack | |
| Fylgja | There are rumors that this is not a real raven, but a shapeshifter or perhaps a totemic spirit given physical form. | Reda's Shop or Werewolf Pack | |
| Gallus | This flying rooster is just as agile as other types of bird, it may actually be unique in this regard. | Reda's Shop or Charlemagne Pack | |
| Huginn | A raven of legend that supposedly sees all and reports its discoveries back to Odin. | Reda's Shop or Valkyrie Pack | |
|
Hunting Falcon | No prey can hide from the falcon's talons. | Sigrblot Festival |
| Iron Claws | Red-colored alloy that has the ability to rip the heads off enemies with its sharp claws. | Reda's Shop or Holy Knight Pack | |
|
Leidarstjarna | Described as the brightest star in the sky, this raven guides sailors in the darkest times of night. | Reda's Shop or High Elf Pack |
| Mechanical Raven | A marvelous bird that has been hand-crafted by the ingenious dwarven engineers. | Reda's Shop or All-Father Pack | |
| Muninn | A mythical raven branded with Odin's mark. It may or may not whisper secrets. | Reda's Shop or Berserker Pack | |
| Nepja | With wings of frost and talons of glistening ice, this infant creature will grow to become fearsome indeed. | Reda's Shop or Niflheim Pack | |
| Night Heron | A nocturnal hunter, this graceful bird is the perfect companion for those who prowl at night. | Reda's Shop or Huldufolk Pack | |
| Ormr | Could this small creature be of the same lineage as the great World Serpent? Only by traveling with it can you find out. | Reda's Shop or Jormungandr Pack | |
|
Phoenix | Around the campfire at night, old warriors say this mythical bird has been alive for centuries, and some even claim the secret of immortality lies in its fiery feathers... | Reda's Shop or Hel's Damnation Pack |
| Pigeon | It lacks any notable lineage, confers no prestige to its owner, and likes to make a mess of things. | Reda's Shop or Carolingian Dynasty Gear Pack | |
|
Puffy | A puffin companion. Either as a self-imposed challenge or for comedic relief, bring this normally docile animal out to the hunt. | Reda's Shop or Ullr's Hunter Pack |
|
Rebel Raven | Frankish frills for your feathered friend. | Bought from Pierre after reaching max Infamy (The Siege of Paris only) |
|
Savage | This wild bird will accept you as a companion, even help you, but do not by any means consider it tame. | Stable merchant |
|
Scales | The previous owner's pet name for the diminutive flying lizard that kept following him around on his adventures. | Reda's Shop or Dark Knight Pack |
|
Seidhr | Since Huginn and Muninn are busy gathering information, Odin enchanted another raven to hunt with. Probably. | Reda's Shop or Black Raven Pack |
| Steel Crow | How one manages to animate a metal bird and make it fly surely reamins the domain of gods... | Reda's Shop or Steampunk Pack | |
| Thunderbird | Many claim that they know the correct origins of this golden bird, with the lightning coming from its eyes. The animal itself seems to not care. | Reda's Shop or Taranis Pack | |
| Vampire Bat | If it looks like a bat, smells like a bat and is called a bat, surely it is a bat, yes? Albeit a very large, agile and friendly one. | Reda's Shop or Night Rogue Pack | |
|
Vinland Crow | A type of bird from a far-off land that was brought back by stalwart explorers. | Ubisoft Connect |
|
Völundr | Let the god Wayland guide you through your adventures! With his ornaments and piercing vision, he's an exceptional companion in both beauty and might. | Complete "Through Faith & Fire" in Discovery Tour: Viking Age |
|
White Senu | Used to warm and dry climates, this majestic companion will still help you despite the cold. | Ubisoft Connect |
| Wyrmling | Small, but ferocious, companion. At this stage of development, it is hard to say this will grow to be a dragon, a wyrm, a drake or a wyvern. | Reda's Shop or Knight of the Round Table Pack | |
| Yokai | This marvelous bird responds to the name and can follow simple commands, although the meaning of its name is lost on you. | Reda's Shop or Shinobi Pack | |
| Zhuque | Old texts indicate this creature could be a "Fenghuang". The creature responds to "Zhuque" on the other hand, and that is what it is named. | Reda's Shop or Lunar Pack |
Behind the scenes
Sýnin first appeared in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla's reveal livestream, flying over Eivor's shoulder.[7] Her name was first revealed in an interview with USGamer, where it was announced that she would appear in-game as a companion and extension of the Eagle Vision mechanic introduced in Assassin's Creed: Origins and Assassin's Creed: Odyssey.[8] "Sýnin" is the definitive form of the Old Norse word sýn, meaning 'sight, vision'. The name is intended to mean 'insight' and is pronounced "Sue-nin" (/'suːnɪn/).[9]
