Freya, a prominent goddess in Norse mythology, is associated with love, beauty, fertility, war, and seiðr (a form of sorcery). She is a member of the Vanir, a group of deities associated with nature and fertility, but lives amidst the Æsir after a truce between the two groups. Freya is renowned for her enchanting beauty and her magical necklace Brísingamen. She rides a chariot pulled by two cats and possesses the magical cloak of falcon feathers that enables her to fly. As a war deity, she receives half of the slain warriors in battle to her hall, Fólkvangr, while Odin claims the other half for Valhalla. Freya's complex character embodies both the nurturing and combative aspects of life, making her one of the most multifaceted figures in Norse mythology.
