+ | Due to her lifestyle, Valentina is a very practical woman. Since she was a child learned how to take care of herself, resulting in competence in a wide array of skills; a jack of all trades - master at none. She will always admit she is no professional in any of them - she has not studied or particularly trained for extended periods of time, much is self taught (as situations would demand, since she didn't quite have anyone to rely upon). | ||
+ | |||
+ | She is fluent in Slovenian, Italian and English, understands Serbo-Croatian, speaks some Japanese, albeit poorly. | ||
+ | |||
+ | During her childhood and teens she has learned basics of living alone - taking care of the apartment, cooking (which has become something she enjoys and takes pride in), fixing up certain appliances and devices. She has dealt with stressful situations, living with minimal amounts of sleep, how to handle herself in fights and resilience to physical pain as she would often get into fights with bullies. She later also took karate lessons for some two years. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Used to living it down and dirty, tobacco, alcohol, weed, mushrooms, experimented with some other drugs but kept them on the sidelines. | ||
+ | In terms of music, she is about rock and metal and has at a point learned to play bass guitar, played in a garage band with some friends as well as played some gigs in bars, where she was particularly popular not only for her looks but also for her rough and hoarse backup vocals. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Her time spent in the military has further strengthened her body and despite spending less time in the career as she would have wanted, she has learned a lot. Hand-to-hand combat, firearms, explosives, first aid. She still swears that her favorite rifle, the AK-47 is the best rifle, as she values reliability over anything else. She will make use of modern technological advantages, but she refuses to fully rely on anything that can easily malfunction, break or run out of power. | ||
+ | She is used to tough things out, shunning treatment and medicine unless really necessary; she would always say "the body is designed to deal with it". Her immune system strengthened and she rarely gets sick (and when she does, she quickly overcomes illness), she shrugs off pain to high degrees and heals very well. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Bar and street fighting were also valuable lessons in her life. For one, she holds alcohol well and can function and fight while drunk. She has learned to use every advantage she can; her skills of karate and hand to hand combat, intimidation, misdirection, taunting and mocking her opposition. She doesn't fight fair. "Life's not fair. Life's dirty." She will resort to dirty tricks and low blows without a second thought. | ||
+ | She will at times resort to sexuality for benefit, though more often for pleasure. Experienced in many kinks and sexual acts, both with men and women. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Her travels and work were source of even more knowledge: orientation in nature, camping/sleeping outdoors, she can also make a fire without matches/lighters. She's not a picky eater and there are very few foods she won't eat. | ||
+ | During the years she has worked with a lot of people, simple people who were passionate about what they do, learning from them and listening to their stories was both entertaining and educational. Her skills range through woodcutting, carpentry, masonry, construction, farming, fishing, sewing, painting, mechanics, driving and operating various machines. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Due to all this, she has mostly worked and frequented male company and has always been one of the 'bros' in her circle. | ||
+ | |||
+ | She is a very handy individual to have around in a 'stranded' scenario and she believes that should the apocalypse happen and the world go to hell tomorrow, she would be ready to survive in it. The main downside to this is that she is quite inept at living in a modern society. She could never be a 'model citizen', which is why the Secret World is a perfect ambient for her. | ||

The apartment was too spacious for one person and not all that cheap, so she got a part time job and had a friend move in with her. Living together they have come to trust each other and become a couple, Valentina's first lesbian relationship. Valentina never continued her schooling, instead she pursued a career in the army. She showed great promise as a soldier, always pushing herself and striving to be the best, showing great physical prowess, topping marksmanship scores and high proficiency with explosives. Months later she had to take medical leave due to severe knee injury. It was during that time that her girlfriend died of sleeping pills overdose while heavily inebriated. | The apartment was too spacious for one person and not all that cheap, so she got a part time job and had a friend move in with her.

− | Broken, Valentina started to drink heavily and became aggressive, after her knee healed she regularly got into bar and street fights that she would usually initiate to sate her lust for (self) destruction. She would end up beaten often, but it didn't matter to her. Pain and pleasure seemed the same in the drunken haze that became her reality, until she was beaten by her closest friend and convinced that she needed help. She then admitted herself to a psychiatric hospital where she was diagnosed with depression, suicidal tendencies, delusions of guilt, manic outbursts of violence, auditory hallucinations and debilitating nightmares. | + | Broken, Valentina started to drink heavily and became aggressive, after her knee healed she regularly got into bar and street fights that she would usually initiate to sate her lust for (self) destruction.

− | Upon accepting the fact that she needed help and with the help (and drugs) she received in the hospital, she did strive to get better and was eventually released. She didn't want to go back home. She packed the necessary things and followed her father's footsteps - abandoning home and travelling around the world, taking occasional jobs wherever needed, for some cash, a meal, a roof - for years. | + | Upon accepting the fact that she needed help and with the help (and drugs) she received in the hospital, she did strive to get better and was eventually released. She didn't want to go back home. She packed the necessary things and followed her father's footsteps - abandoning home and travelling around the world, taking occasional jobs wherever needed, for some cash, a meal, a roof - for years and she had started to again enjoy life. Travelling and physical work was good for her and she has come to be more at peace again. Even the nightmares stopped. |
+ | She has somewhat settled down after her powers manifested. She was scared and, for once, had no idea how to handle it or who to turn to. Luckily, the Dragon has helped her. Given her powers purpose. | ||
