The team that appear in the lava stage are the 'Sneak Into My Room' team. I think that Brynhildr would be the type that directly 'attack' instead of sneaking into My Room lol.

Aside from that, I guess Brynhildr is (almost) always violent yandere (Because of her instinct to kill 'Sigurd') while the other three (Kiyohime, Raikou, and Serenity) can be reasoned with somewhat.

My Room Trio wants to ride him while Brin wants to murder him because she is projecting Sigurd on the player.

If she were to appear the Trio will murder her instead.

"Love, is terrifying"

Most likely yandere are like "I love you so I have to kill you"

Brynhildr is a tragic heroine rather than Yandere

Though Norse Myth is not very good at moral anyway

"Love is evil." (Marilyn Manson - Deep Six)

Well, in the myth that this Brynhildr is based upon, she wants to kill Sigurd because she was cursed to imprisonment until she married the man that broke her out of imprisonment, but Sigurd (who did the actual break-out) lied and got her married to someone else so he could marry another girl. When she is boasting about what a hero her husband is, Sigurd's wife then says (for some stupid reason) that no, it was Sigurd, and her husband is a lying weasel sham. Brynhildr then goes on to get Sigurd killed for betraying her and (and mistakenly thinking he raped her during that break-out) before murdering his son and then committing suicide.

While it also can count as 'tragic heroine', that sure sounds yandere to me. (That said, if you don't go to elaborate lengths to betray her, she shouldn't be all "I kill anyone I love" as a default. She had at least some fairly good justification to seek revenge, even if it was over-the-top. At the very least, she's more rational than Kiyohime.)

Incidentally, another of her myths has Siegfried get her married to some other doofus by cheating at the contests she set up for a man to marry her by using invisibility. When she then still isn't ready for sex after the marriage, Siegfried, who was apparently hanging out in their bedroom while invisible, the voyeuristic pervert, then steals her magic ring and girdle to de-power her, and then starts snapping her bones until she begs for mercy and accepts being a docile wife for the guy she was cheated into marrying. Siegfried's wife then later comes along and publicly humiliates her by explaining how Siegfried cheated and then beat her into submission. In that one, killing Siegfried isn't even her idea, but she just goes along with the murder plot because why wouldn't she?!

While Nibelungenlied sure has a tons of variants, essentially I thought it was supposed to be:

> Siegfried is to be married to Kriemhilde to begin with.
> Gunnar wants to marry Brunhilde but the only person who can marry her must be able to overpower her.
> Siegfried uses his invisibility(or transformation, depending on versions), to win against Brunhilde under the guise of Gunnar.
> He also helped Gunnar overpower her in bed, though whether or not he actually get in on the sex depends on the versions.
> Brunhilde thought the entire time that Gunnar won over her fair and square.
> Brunhilde found out this was a deception. Who broke it to her, whether or not she was a bitch in either prompting the information or how she reacted to it, and whether or not she came up with the idea of assassinating Siegfried depends on versions.
> Whether or not Gunnar wholeheartedly or reluctantly agreed to the plan also varies.
> Haagen assassinates Siegfried.
> Kriemhilde goes to marry Etzel(Attila), and whether or not she brought his army back to kill everyone in Siegfried's revenge, or Brunhilde commited suicide, again depends on the version.

The versions vary so much you can pretty much paint anyone in the Siegfried-Brunhilde-Gunnar-Kriemhilde square as being either a tragic figure or a ruthless villain.
