== Clancy (i) - daughter of [[War]]==

Clancy is [[War]]'s daughter, appears in {{IT}}, and is portrayed as a spoiled little girl wearing a {{wp|Pony_Club|Pony Club}} hat. As the daughter of a [[Valkyrie]], this is perhaps only fitting.
She has a permanent scowl which makes her brothers [[Panic]] and [[Terror]] somewhat redundant at the moment.
