Who is the central playable character in Assassin's Creed Valhalla?

The story behind the answer

Eivor is the central playable character in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

Eivor is a Viking raider who leads a Norse clan from Norway to England during the ninth century. The player can choose a masculine or feminine presentation for Eivor, but the character's name remains Eivor Varinsdottir in the game's established identity.

Valhalla was released in 2020. Its story follows the settlement of Raven Clan in England and their alliances and conflicts with Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. Eivor also becomes connected with the Hidden Ones, including the Assassin Basim Ibn Ishaq.

Sigurd is Eivor's adoptive brother and an important story character, while Basim is a major ally with his own agenda. Neither replaces Eivor as the campaign's central playable character.
