- Fólkvangr (フォールクヴァング Fōrukubangu) is a legendary weapon and a weapon skill in Fire Emblem Heroes. It is the personal sword of Prince Alfonse of Askr. Fólkvangr's edges are coated in gold, while the grip has a glowing blue crystal. It emits a blue light when performing a special attack. According to Alfonse, "the stones in the hilt burn like white flames". Alfonse needs to have 5-star rarity in order to learn Fólkvangr as a weapon skill.
- In the poem Grímnismál collected in the Poetic Edda, Odin (disguised as Grímnir) tells the young Agnar that Freyja allots seats to half of those that die in her hall Fólkvangr, while Odin receives the other half (Fólkvangr is here anglicized to Fôlkvang and Folkvang):

High then continues with a description of Freyja's hall Sessrúmnir.
