Magical Valkyrie Luistia is a character in the popular mobile game "Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links." She is a legendary warrior and a member of the Valkyrie archetype, which focuses on powerful spells and traps. Luistia joins the ranks of other Valkyrie monsters in her quest to protect the Nordic gods and maintain balance in the world. Luistia possesses impressive combat skills and magical abilities. As a Valkyrie, she can summon herself onto the field by banishing another Valkyrie monster from the graveyard. This ability allows her to quickly make an appearance and assist her allies in battle.

“[White] was interested in people on the margin and the underside of history,” Anne R. Kenney, co-curator of the exhibit, tells Allison Meier of Hyperallergic. “[A]nother big collection that he acquired was the anti-slavery collection.”

Together, these haunting relics illustrate the evolution of a widespread epidemic of paranoia and persecution one that left thousands of supposed witches dead. In an effort to give a voice to the female victims of Europe s witch mania, The World Bewitch d will tell the stories of seven women through court records and imagery.

This ability allows her to quickly make an appearance and assist her allies in battle. Furthermore, when Luistia is summoned, she can special summon another Valkyrie monster from the hand. This effect not only provides additional firepower but also aids in setting up combo plays and strategic maneuvers.

200 Artifacts of Witchcraft Cast a Spell in Cornell’s “The World Bewitch’d”

The Nuremberg Chronicle, a late 15th-century text that tells the history of the Christian world, features a grotesque image of an English witch being carried off on horseback by the devil. Her breasts are bared, her hair loose, her expression contorted. The image, a woodblock print, helped popularize the association between witches and the devil, and it was reproduced throughout the 16th century. Now, this influential relic can be seen at a new exhibit, along with 200 other artifacts from the Cornell Witchcraft Collection.

As Kristin Fawcett reports for Mental Floss, “ The World Bewitch’d ,” launched at Cornell’s Carl A. Kroch Library on Halloween (naturally). On display is a trove of rare European items, including handwritten trial transcripts, tomes on demonology, and treatises on witchcraft. Together, these haunting relics illustrate the evolution of a widespread epidemic of paranoia and persecution—one that left thousands of supposed witches dead.

The exhibit draws on the approximately 3,000 artifacts held by the Cornell Witchcraft Collection, many of which were acquired by the university’s co-founder Andrew Dickinson White and his librarian George Lincoln Burr in the 1880s.

“[White] was interested in people on the margin and the underside of history,” Anne R. Kenney, co-curator of the exhibit, tells Allison Meier of Hyperallergic. “[A]nother big collection that he acquired was the anti-slavery collection.”

Among the many intriguing items on display is a crude woodcut from the 1489 treatise De Lamiis et Pythonicis Mulieribus (“On Witches and Female Soothsayers”), which marked the earliest printed image of witches in flight. The woodcut depicts three figures clinging to a fork (the broom iconography would come later), their faces transfigured into animal heads. Also featured are the minutes from the trial of Dietrich Flade, a German judge who spoke out against witch hunts—and was subsequently tried and executed for witchcraft.

One of the main themes of the exhibit is the intersection between witchcraft and gender. In the 16th century, women were deemed particularly susceptible to the temptations of the devil—in part due to their perceived “uncontrollable carnal lust,” writes Meier of Hyperallergic, and in part because they were seen as less intelligent than men.

“Prior to 1500, most sorcerers were men because they were seen as powerful agents — think of Merlin — but as the ecclesiastical leaders began to think of a new form of witchcraft, it was the more powerless people whom the devil contacted to do his work,” Kenney tells Meier. “So they were not independent agents, but slaves of the devil. That powerlessness really became associated with women.”

In an effort to give a voice to the female victims of Europe’s witch mania, “The World Bewitch’d” will tell the stories of seven women through court records and imagery. Two of these supposed witches were ultimately declared innocent. All of them were tortured.

Reflecting on the ways in which popular attitudes toward witchcraft have changed, the exhibit also features a number of movie posters depicting witchcraft, sourced from films like The Exorcist and Harry Potter. No longer are “witches” the helpless victims of a powerful hysteria. As Kenney tells Meier, “[W]itches in popular culture now are more powerful, whether they do good or bad things.”

The constellation of issues related to gender around the witch hunts is still present today, Walsh says: “While the witch hunts of early modern Europe and Massachusetts are a thing of the past, the beliefs that drove that violence are still with us today, and they drive violence today, but just in different forms.”

In addition to her summoning ability, Luistia has a powerful effect that triggers when she is destroyed by battle or card effect. When this occurs, the player can add a Valkyrie monster from their deck to their hand. This effect ensures that Luistia's presence on the field remains impactful even after she is defeated. By retrieving another Valkyrie monster, the player can continue to maintain field presence and put pressure on their opponent. Luistia's magical prowess is further enhanced by the various support cards available to the Valkyrie archetype. These cards provide additional effects and abilities that can bolster Luistia's battle capabilities and overall strategy. Some support cards allow the player to search for Valkyrie monsters from their deck, add them to their hand, or summon them directly onto the field. Other cards provide protection and negate the effects of opposing cards, strengthening Luistia's position and enabling her to maintain control on the battlefield. In summary, Magical Valkyrie Luistia is a formidable and versatile warrior in "Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links." With her ability to quickly appear on the field, summon additional Valkyrie monsters, and retrieve key cards from the deck, Luistia proves to be a valuable asset in any Valkyrie deck. Her combination of combat skills and magical prowess makes her a force to be reckoned with, ensuring that the Nordic gods and the Valkyries themselves are always protected..
