[edit] The Agents
The Agents in the Heroscape Universe is part of the large and diverse Human race. The Agents are cunning warriors in the service of Vydar and are from the future in Earth's timeline. They are masters of street fighting and defensive strategy.
Agent technology is highly advanced, giving the Agents much leverage in the battlefield. Some Agents have even been given magical weaponry created by the Kyrie.

Agents Sets that have appeared:
The Master Set: Rise of the Valkyire:
- Agent Carr
Agent Commander wielding a hand gun and magical sword
(On his home planet Earth, Agent Carr was a revered master of Krav Maga, the 'no rules' art of face-to-face street combat. With his superhuman senses, lightning-fast reflexes and advanced stealth techniques, Agent Carr simply cannot be caught off-guard.
A cautious man who leaves nothing to chance, Carr is also well-schooled in the art of weaponry. He usually carries a gun and a long sword, both gifts from Vydar, his Valkyrie General. Agent Carr is the strong, silent type who asks few questions, and answers even fewer.)
- Krav Maga Agents
Agents wielding hand guns
(Hand-picked by Agent Carr for intensive Krav Maga and weapons training, these agents worked for several secret agencies on Earth before being pressed into service in Valhalla. They can dodge long-range attacks with almost superhuman agility; and their sharp-shooting skills are legendary throughout Valhalla.
With single-minded focus and fierce loyalty, they routinely carry out nearly impossible missions with no questions asked-or answered. Thus, they are perhaps the most dangerous of Vydar's followers.)
Jandar’s Oath:
- Microcorp Agents
Agents wielding sub-machine guns
(Relying on their advanced technology rather than brute strength, Microcorp Agents combine technology with relentless training in order to infiltrate and neutralize key positions. Not only do their weapons have superior range, they are also much more effective when firing from a greater height.
But that¹s only part of the story. The Agents wear special suits that allow them to glide easily through the water and provides extra protection in that environment. The suit is also equipped with Stealth Armor ability, enabling the Microcorp Agents to dodge attacks.)
Thora’s Vengeance:
- Nakita Agents
Agents wielding hand guns
(She draws in the cool night air in long painful gasps. No amount of training at the agency could have prepared her for this. Mind racing, the young Nakita Agent nervously rolls a metallic cylinder between her thumb and forefinger. It’s a slick little device -- a close range laser cleverly disguised as a tube of glossy red lipstick.
“Chrissy!” Her fellow agent, Kimberly, calls to her in a hushed voice. Chrissy looks up and meets the eyes of her ally. The bond between Nakita agents is so strong that they rarely need words to communicate. A squadron of Gorillanators is pinned under heavy fire from one of those Deathwalkers. Chrissy clicks her tongue to signal Angela, the third Nakita, two meters down the ruined wall they're jokingly calling cover. A sudden hand gesture and her teammates are over the wall firing on the towering machine. On cue, Chrissy throws smoke powder from behind the wall, then moves to aid in the Gorillanator’s retreat.
There will be another day for victory.)
