Militsa Gnosis is a young Scottish Necromancer who teaches Magical Theory at Corrival Academy. Militsa is specialized in information relating to the Source, which is the reason why she wanted to see Valkyrie's magic, as it's directly connected to it.
Biography[]
Resurrection[]
Militsa meets Valkyrie at Corrival Academy, where she teaches Magic Theory, and worries that she's being lame around Valkyrie. She later invites Valkyrie to the Museum of Magical History to help Valkyrie find out how to break Smoke's control over Skulduggery.
Bedlam[]
It is revealed that she and Valkyrie have started a relationship quite some time before the events of the book. She also goes out to eat with Valkyrie in a café and helps her to steal a Necronaut Suit in order to retrieve one third of Alice's soul from the Necropolis.
Seasons of War[]
She is briefly mentioned in a conversation between Kes and Valkyrie, with Valkyrie stating that negative thoughts eat away at her, even when she's with Militsa. She is later mentioned in a conversation between Tanith Low and Valkyrie, where Valkyrie describes her as "a bright ray of light in her otherwise dark existence."
Militsa later appears saying goodbye to Valkyrie when she is leaving for Dimension X, and she looks after Xena when Valkyrie is gone. When Valkyrie comes back, she makes her vow never to go into an alternate dimension again.
Dead or Alive[]
Militsa accompanies Valkyrie to her meetings with her family. Where they meet Fergus and Beril who are wounded show that Valkyrie is suddenly bisexual. After Coda Quell's first assassination attempt on Valkyrie and Skulduggery, Militsa lovingly takes care of the traumatized Valkyrie and gives her the support she needs.
She ends up breaking up with Valkyrie after attacking her ex Coda Quell in self defence under the empowering effects of Féile na Draíochtha, sending him flying into the death field set up earlier. She doesn't take this well. After she discovers that Valkyrie is the Child of the Faceless Ones, she ends the relationship.
Until the End[]
Militsa deliberately gets herself captured by the City Guard to lure in Valkyrie. When Valkyrie goes to her house afterwards to ask if she's alright, Militsa leads Valkyrie into a trap that results in Valkyrie losing her connection to the Faceless Ones. Afterwards, Valkyrie apologises profusely, and they get back together.
At the end of the book, Militsa is seen talking with Valkyrie and Alice.
Appearance[]
She is a redhead with freckles who dresses almost exclusively in black (as per Necromancer tradition). She has been seen wearing cloaks.
Personality[]
Militsa has a bubbly personality and is self-conscious about how she talks too much. Her general self-awareness makes her seem insightful but awkward. She is very willing to help Valkyrie at a moment's notice. Militsa is Valkyrie’s age.
Magic[]
Militsa stores her Necromancer power in a bracelet on her wrist. She had originally intended to store it in a ring, like Valkyrie, but decided against it, so as not to appear to be copying her.
Trivia[]
- Most students at Corrival Academy don't know her full name, implied when Valkyrie called her Militsa when speaking to Omen Darkly.
