Atali, daughter of Ymir, featured in Robert E. Howard's novelette, "The Frost Giant's Daughter". Atali was said to visit battlegrounds and show herself to the dying, where she would lure them away into the frozen wastelands to be slain by her brothers, the Ice Giants. Atali's original descent is unknown in precise detail. According to the Nordheimer, she is the daughter of Ymir, the frost giant king. Unlike her brothers, who are monstrous ogres, she is utterly beautiful.
