Looking to form a themed supergroup (The Valkyrie or maybe The Ravensgard)

Hello, I’m looking for a group of players to play in a themed supergroup. Players, who can spare time to regularly play the group.
The theme of the group is based around Odin’s Valkyrie. THE VALKYRIE, Odin’s host of female figures who decide who will die in battle.
The backstory centers on a group of Scandinavian sisters who accompanied their father, the archeologist Dr. Ravensgard, to a remote northern temple-burial site where he un-wittedly opened a bridge (portal) from Midgard (Earth) to the Asgardian Plane. Opening the portal released the great worm Jörmungandr (dragon-serpent) and his master (Nemesis TBD) from imprisonment. During the encounter the doctor is possessed and the girls were killed. The spirits of the girls were summoned thru the portal and brought before a very angry Odin. Who after some persuading by Freya, grant the girls the power of the Valkyrie to right wrong. The Ravensgard girl’s spirits are returned to their bodies; with a quest to defeat their Nemises and free their father; and recover the portal object. (The child of Ravensgard perhaps not be only girls, but boys too. Maybe the group name would be RAVENSGARD Maybe the group holds other norse based chararter themes such as the ettins-fire giants.)
Some appropriate archetypes may inlcuded:
The Marksman (Battle-Archer), DEX, INT, EGO
The Tempest (Storms-Lightning), END, EGO, REC
The Squall (Storms-Wind), EGO, REC, END
The Glacier (Storms-Cold), CON, END, EGO
The Blade (Battle-Sword), DEX, STR, REC
The Devastator (Battle-Sword), STR, REC, CON
The Grimoire (Mysticism-Dark), INT, EGO, PRE
The Radiant (Mysticism-Light), PRE, EGO, INT
The Mind (Mysticism-Mind), PRE, END, EGO
Others ?
Freefrom based on above ? (This option could allow the use of a weapon (sword?) with the extra slots freeform provides. Or, trying to mixed a couple archetype powers in one character.
Some Valkyre by name:
Brynhildr - Armor battle or bright battle -> Glacier Archetype ?
Eir - Peace, clemency or help, mercy -> Radiant Archetype ?
Geirdriful - Spear-flinger -> Marksman Archetype ?
Göndul - Wand-wielder -> Grimoire Archetype ?
Guðr or Gunnr – Wa r or battle
Herja - Related to the Old Norse herja meaning "devastate" -> Tempest- Squall Archetype ?
….
Þrúðr, Strength or power
There are over almost forty names listed, most with name-meaning very suitable for a Archetype.
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valkyrie_names_in_Norse_mythology
The Ravensgard-Valkyrie should have a themed look … Valkyrie wings and flight-acrobatics for example, and use of Norse based costume options, which has atleast one color which is common in the group.
As far as number and types of characters I think a spread along ranged, brick, melee and support will balance and serve the group well.
An expert in ranged (bow) or enegy (storm).
An hardened warrior (cold or brute).
An nimble melee expert in weapon-sword?
An strong melee warrior in weapon-sword?
An support expert in mysticism-healing?
Interested … Please reply.
Personally I would favor playing a Devastator, Radiant or Grimoire archetype; perhaps freeform based on two of them.
