Biography
Karnilla
Imprisoned, Loki sent mental waves in order to send a message desperately to Karnilla where he asked her to use her magic to awaken Odin from the Odinsleep. This was so that he would stop the Destroyer from killing Thor which would have sealed Loki's fate as a result. (Journey into Mystery v1 #119)
During the War of Realms, the Dark Elf Malekith the Accursed sought to kill the Norns so that fate itself would die and therefore he along with his allies would be free to forge their own destiny. Thus, Karnilla called upon the Odinson to aid in the protection of the Norns who had already fought back several assassination attempts by Ulik and his Trolls. They were then attacked by a large force including Frost Giants, Dark Elves and Fire Demons where despite the efforts of the guards and Thor they were overwhelmed. Queen Karnilla had the three Norns taken away to safety by the guards whilst she fought the intruders. At that moment, their foes severed part of the root above the keep causing it to crash down thus fatally wounding her. As a result, the dark cabal had succeeded in eliminating the Norns allowing them to chart their own fate in the future. (Mighty Thor v1 #700) Upon dying, she went to the afterlife in Niffleheim where she was reunited with Balder who was king of Hel. At that point, Fire Demons arrived in Hel where they attacked the native undead as they sought to conquer the land in the name of their Queen Sindr. (Mighty Thor v1 #701)
She helped battle against the hordes of Muspelheim where she secretly took the ring from Balder that he needed to wed Hela. After the battle was won, Karnilla wore it thus wedding her to Hela to maintain the pact and secure the aid of Hel despite the protests of Balder as he did not want to be separated from the Norn. However, she decided to make this sacrifice for her love as she felt Hela would try to kill him even after they were wed. She then asked Loki t use a spell to send Balder back to the land of the living whilst she herself came to rule the dead as one of the Queens of Hel. (Thor v5 #4)
