:: GENERAL APPEARANCE: Valerie has matured so much from the small and pretty teenager. She has grown a lot and is now tall compared to others her age instead of short like she used to be. She is normal weight for her age but then she does have some muscle, none that shows but you can tell when she is fighting or traveling around the tree tops of a forest. Her hair has gotten darker, or at least thats what she tells everyone, she really dyed it black. She has beautiful brown eyes and pale skin that she can never tan no matter how much time she spends in the sun. She still wears old jeans and shirts when she is out in the forest but when she isn't she now wears dresses more often and also wears more girly clothes.

Personality!

:: LIKES: spending time in the forest, shopping, fashion design, going to parties
:: DISLIKES: paper work, hunters, the idea of family
:: HABITS: frowning and sighing at random times
:: STRENGTHS: she is fast, great at getting around in the forest and is great at socalizing with vampire and lycans
:: WEAKNESSES: she can't seem to have a loving relationship (best friend, "like family", or boyfriend) with anyone since losing everyone else she'd ever loved, she is really bad at coping with stress

:: OVERALL PERSONALITY: After going out of her teens and entering adulthood, Val has changed in a few ways. She has matured just enough to take over the protettores after Rachel resigned as leader but then she can still be very immature and emotionally unstable. She refuses to get to know anyone to the point where she has a really good relationship with them because she has lost everyone she has ever loved, her parents, her boyfriend (that she had thought of as a soulmate) and her best friend. She can't feel emotion like she used to because of how much she has been hurt and how much she has seen in her short life so far.

She can be happy. She is always happy when she is in the forest and when she has time to sit down and do some fashion designing. She has never gotten the chance to make her designs but she does want to try one day. She loves partying, when she turned eighteen she discovered the how stress relieving partying was and now she goes to a party at least a couple of times a month.

:: HISTORY: Valerie Ashley Rayment was born in Meander, a small town on the edge of the Meander Vallery in Tasmania, Australia. Her parents were Michelle and Tyrone Rayment, a protettore couple, and her father was a descendant from one of the first protettores. They were kind, loving parents that did whatever they could to be perfect parents for Valerie and to make sure she didn't feel bored, hurt or lonely. They were what you would call perfect parents.

From the time Valerie could walk and talk her parents had been telling her about the supernatural world and about the protettores and hunters. She didn't understand things much when she was young except for the fact that some of the magical creatures from stories were real and she was always really excited to know more about them and meet them. She was never scared of them when she was little and she never thought of them as bad even though she knew that the vampires drank blood, the warlocks could be dangerous with their magic and that werewolves sometimes were completely controlled by their wolf forms. She could never get herself to think badly about the species.

Around the time she started school she also started protettore training. She loved training only because her parents always tried their best to make things as fun as possible. They taught things to her that she would need if she were going to spend long periods of time in the forest and also ways to protect herself and be able to win in a fight against a hunter. And of course she was taugh about the vampires, the werewolves and the warlocks. She did find things like learning abotu edible plants boriing at times but then she didn't complain because she understood that it was something that would be useful in her future.

Also in school she did a small part of her protettore training, learning Italian. When she was in school the protettore hall was in Italy and a lot of the higher ranking protettores spoke Italian either as a first language or fluently so she had to learn it to make sure she would be able to understand everything at meeting she would get to go to when she was older. She hated the idea of learning Italian from the day her parents had told her she had to start learning it but she always tried her best because of how much she loved her parents, that was the only thing that got her through school when she was young, the fact that her parents loved her so much.

As she got to her late childhood she had been thinking everything was perfect and that nothing would ever change. She had been thinking that she would go into her teens, find a nice guy, finish her training, get married and have children. She had really been thinking she would have a perfect life and she was oh so wrong. When she was nine years old everything went down hill and her perfect life started to be destoryed then. Her parents died in a car accident. Her parents had died.

She knew that every time her parents went out to do protettore stuff there was a possibility that they would be killed but they had died in a car accident and that was what made it so bad, so horrifing for her. She had accepted the fact they could be killed by a hunter or even an insane creature (there were insane humans so why wouldn't there be insane vampires or werewolves?) but she hadn't accepted the fact that there were still human things that could kill them like car accidents. She didn't take the news well at all and when she was asked to go to a foster home she refused and ran off into the forest just behind her house.

She hid up in a tree and didn't move at all until she had been completely sure that they had given up on searching for her at least until the morning. When she was sure she got down from the tree and just started walking. She didn't exactly know where she going or what she was going to do, she jusyt walked but she didn't end up getting very far. She was suddenly fronted by a werewolf. She had never felt nervous around them before that night. The lycan had looked insane. Its eyes hadn't looked the slightest bit sane and it was almost foaming at the mouth but it looked morre like a human staring a double chocolate cake or something. The wolf had looked hungry, no it had looked starving.

It had growled at Valerie and slowly began walking towards her, as it took a step forward she had taken a step backwards. The wolf had gotten faster though and Val had began to run away. The wolf decided to follow her and she had thought that she would be dead. She made a quick decision though and jumped up onto a low lying tree branch and then she ended up going back to the house and spending the night there.

She was found in the morning and was forced to go to live in a foster family because she had no other family alive. Rachel, the protettore leader at the time, did offer to put her into a protettore family but it would have meant moving away from Meander and she loved the town too much to leave it. She ended up in a normal foster family and was forced to live a normal human life, something she thought she would never have to do. After a year of it she was close to insane. She missed her parents, she missed the protettore training and she missed just spending time in the forest.

At that time she was lucky because a protettore family moved into Meander with a daughter about her age, Maria. She met the family and she ended up becoming friends with Maria. The parents agreed to let Val do protettore training with Maria and she was so excited to get to do training again. It didn't bother her that the training was less fun than the stuff her parents had taught her, she was just happy that she didn't have to try and act like a normal human anymore. As far as her foster parents knew she had started a sport after school a couple of times a week and they didn't really care enough to make sure she wasn't lying.

A few years later a hunter family moved into Meander. It took her a while to work out it was a family of hunters and she had just thought at first that they were a normal family. She fell in love with the son before she learned he was a hunter and she couldn't just forget him or hate him once she found out what he was because of the fact she had fallen for him at first sight. She kept it a secret from everyone, even Maria and she usually told her best friend everything, she felt so embarrassed about it.

After a while though she found out that that Brendon liked her too and they couldn't just ignore the fact that they liked each other. They ended up going out, it started very casual but it ended up with them being boyfriend and girlfriend. She tried her best to keep it a secret but it didn't take long before people found out. first Maria, then a hunter friend of Brendon's and more people from that. No one could stop them from going out but a couple of people attempted to kill Brendon, no one did and they were left alone to a point.

Maria was bitten by a werewolf and changed when Valerie was seventeen but they still stayed friends for the most part. They were at least good friends until high school finished and they went there seperate ways, they just lost contact and Val had lost her best friend. Things just got worse when she was nineteen and Brendon ended up disappearing. She had no idea if he had been killed, had died or had just ran off to go in hiding or to get away from her. She didn't know what had happened to him so she treated it like he was dead and she felt like she was dead inside as well.

She had to at least hide all of her pain when Rachel stepped down from being protettore leader and Val was the first person to be offered the job because of her bloodlines. She wanted to turn the offer down but then this would be her one chance at getting the top job and her father had always told her that he would be so proud iof she became the protettore leader, he knew that Rachel wasn't likely to have a child so she took the job and ended up maturing from the second she said yes to the job.

She moved to Moscow, Russia where the new protettore hall was located and she started her job as the protettore leader. She heard about all the bad things that were happening in the supernatural world all around the world and she really didn't blame Rachel for stepping down because it is a stressful job. To calm the stress, Val goes partying a couple of times a month, a routine that has gotten her into trouble more than one time.
