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] and Francia to aid in Rollo's siege of Paris.[5]
Skins
In 2020, while reliving Eivor's memories through the Portable Animus HR-8.5, the Assassin Layla Hassan could modify the Animus interface and allow for a variety of skins to be applied to Sýnin:
| Image | Name | Description | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Albino | 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 / 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 / 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 / Knight ISU Pack | |
|
Black and White | Stable merchant | |
|
Blood Eagle | This raven survived by eating the remains of warriors fallen in battle. | Reda's Shop / Einherjar Pack |
|
Blue Shades | Stable merchant | |
|
Celtic Raven | Stable merchant (Wrath of the Druids only) | |
|
Colorful Raven | Ēostre festival | |
| 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 / 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 / Mystical Pack |
|
Falcon | Reda's Shop | |
| Feigr | To say this bird is "near to death" may be a very optimistic way of stating the obvious. | Reda's Shop / Draugr 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 / Charlemagne Pack | |
| Huginn | A raven of legend that supposedly sees all and reports its discoveries back to Odin. | Reda's Shop / Valkyrie Pack | |
|
Hunting Falcon | No prey can hide from the falcon's talons. | Sigrblot Festival |
| Muninn | A mythical raven branded with Odin's mark. It may or may not whisper secrets. | Reda's Shop / Berserker Pack | |
| Nepja | With wings of frost and talons of glistening ice, this infant creature will grow to become fearsome indeed. | Reda's Shop / Niflheim Pack | |
| Night Heron | A nocturnal hunter, this graceful bird is the perfect companion for those who prowl at night. | Reda's Shop / Huldufolk 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 / Hel's Damnation 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 / Ullr's Hunter Pack | |
|
Savage | Stable merchant | |
| Seidhr | Since Huginn and Muninn are busy gathering information, Odin enchanted another raven to hunt with. Probably. | Reda's Shop / Black Raven 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 / Taranis Pack | |
|
Vinland Crow | Ubisoft Connect | |
|
White Senu | 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 / Knight of the Round Table Pack |
Behind the scenes
Sýnin first appeared in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla's reveal livestream, flying over Eivor's shoulder.[6] 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.[7]
Etymology
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/).[8]
