Valkyrie (ヴァルキリー, Varukirī) is a Phantom born from a man called Katsuya Kiritani (桐谷 克弥, Kiritani Katsuya), when he gave up in despair. His Gate target is Shozo Matsuki (松木 昭造 Matsuki Shōzō ).
History[]
Valkyrie first attacks Matsuki's apprentice Tetsuya Inagaki, to thwart his delivery, with Shunpei Nara thinking his friend was the target, then uses his human identity to trick Matsuki into wasting a majority of his wagashi.
When Kamen Rider Wizard interferes, Valkyrie takes Shunpei hostage to cover his escape. But Valkyrie eventually learns that Matsuki's hope is within Tetsuya and sees killing the youth to be the only way to fulfill his quota.
However, during the attempt on Tetsuya's life, Valkyrie is destroyed by Kamen Rider Wizard's Hurricane Dragon form with the Dragon Sonic.
