Though much is not known about the early life of Karnilla, it is known that she has become exceptional in the arts of sorcery. Though she is of Asgardian race, she claims she is the monarch of Nornheim, with many troops of guardian demons, and is not under the law of Asgard. Karnilla has befriended Loki, god of evil, and has fell in love with a noble warrior of Asgard named Balder the Brave, but she has been seen as an enemy to Asgard for her past deeds. Later, though, Balder requested that Asgard form an alliance with Karnilla in the war with Surtur. While Balder was called away to help Thor in his mission to rescue souls from Hel, Karnilla was taken captive by the Frost Giants of Jotunheim, transforming Karnilla's subjects into stone. Balder came through rescuing Karnilla and helping to stop the Frost Giants invasion on Asgard.
