favorite bloodtype:: human, ab preferably German or Italian. general description:: Valeska is very manipulative, it comes mostly from her childhood spent in a Russian orphanage. She had to fight for everything she got and before she was a vampire little Valeska wasn’t all that violent so she used her ability to con people into doing things for her to get what she wanted. She became very aggressive both in temper and in her sexuality. Valeska is known to have a horrible temper when she is angered, often killing or torturing those who provoke her. Ironically she is very similar in the bed, those who are her just her casual night partner… she kills. Though, her longer term relationships, which only tend to be with members of her coven, are far less violent. Most of them live and she even parts with them on good terms.
Do to her rather unhappy childhood and the nature in which she was turned. Valeska is not the type to share her past with other willingly. She is very secretive about anything that is too personal, when people ask her (generally new members) about her claim to fame amongst vampires, who her father was, she will tell them that she doesn’t like talk about her past. Now if they persist, Valeska gets angry and well, there is usually a body to clean up.
Valeska is a social climber, she has always wanted to lead the coven. So she is always trying to get into the right position with in the leaders of the coven. In her slightly warped mind she thinks that she is a crucial part of the coven but most members view her as a very nice piece of eye candy.
&&__battle royale artillary:: Valeska likes small hand guns, ones that are very easy to handle and to hide. She does not like to carry them in a holster so she keeps her gun in her purse so she can blend in with the crowd. swordsmanship:: Now, knives and swards are Valeska’s passion. She prefers these primitive weapons because you have to be close to kill. Valeska collects them like most collect fine art. She has gone all around the world and has a number of custom made knives that fit perfectly into her black leather trench coat she wears when she hunts. So when she opens it up, it shines with impressive instruments of death. martial arts:: Valeska isn’t into many martial arts, she respects those who know them but she has no desire to learn any. combat:: Now, growing up in an Russian orphanage during the revolution. Valeska is very adept at fighting hand to hand. She is a brawler with no real style. She will use anything around her to help her out like walls or doors. She likes to knock people out by smashing their head into the wall.
&&__family history father’s name:: disputed but she used to claim Grigori Rasputin was her father do to records she found when she returned to the orphanage when she was an adult (*note* there is documentation that Rasputin had a forth child that was with an unknown woman later in life and no one knows what happened to that child… so I kinda ran with that idea lol!) mother’s name:: Sasha Ratajzcky (dead) sibling’s name:: none known to her. general history::
- Valeska Yelena Ratajzky was born on a cold St. Petersburg to a Russian prostitute. Unable to take care of her child and being quite young she took her daughter to an orphanage in hope someone would want her little girl and would give her a better life. -Little Valeska (known as Lena as a child) was tormented by other children at the orphanage because everyone knew her mother was a prostitute and that she unlike many other the other children, was unwanted and a mistake, not an orphaned child of the revolution. -As a teen Valeska ran away and got married young… which was a very big mistake. She couldn’t handle married life and three weeks after giving birth to a little boy, she ran off again because she was afraid of being a wife and mother at 17. -at the age of 20, she encountered a vampire in a bar, unknown to her she went back to a hotel room and had sex with him. In a similar fashion in the way she kills her prey now, he feed off her and then gave her an offer to live forever or let her die. Obviously she chose eternal life. -As a young vampire she wondered the world learning everything she could about vampires. She visited Germany, France, Finland, Japan and then returned to Russia. -When she returned to Russia, 25 years after she was turned she went back to the orphanage where she grew up in hope that they kept records of parents. She claimed that she was Lena’s daughter who was asked by her dying mother to find out for once and for all who her family was. It was at this time she learned her mother’s name and the fact on the papers her mother claimed that the infamous mystic Grigori Rasputin was her baby’s father. That he was possibly her father. -Soon after those events she returned to France, a place where she felt a connection to, and found her coven. At this time she bragged about the information she had discovered about her parentage. Some embraced the fact… or rather supposed fact… others did not like her because she could not leave her human life behind her. -When she was 45, she completely stopped talking about her past, and became known permanently as Valeska Rasputin. That was the only acknowledgement she had to her human life. -at 49, she took up collecting swords and started seeing a vampire from Russia in a romantic fashion. She later learns he was the one that turned her. -after 10 years Valeska leaves him because she was bored with him. -Soon after that, she left the coven for a short time to go to America to see was this place was incredible. Her she quickly learned English and began to speak it instead of her native Russian. -Also while in the states she began to develop a taste for high fashion and her more manipulative and violent sides started to come out. -When she returned to the coven many people noticed a change in her personality, some said for the better other for the worse. -As she approached her 100th birthday she started to long to learn the fate of her son and used the new internet as a tool to find him in Russia. She learns that he was killed during the cold war, he was only 19. -after learning that the only connection she had to her human life was no more she seemed to become even more tight lipped about her past and her personal feelings, only talking to a few members of the coven who had been around for as long as she had.
&&__proving your worth role-playing sample:: (I’ll give you two… just to show you how I post on average) example 1 For the daughter of the Dark Lord life was a simple one. She got up in the morning, owled anyone of her brothers to tell them about the latest happenings in her rather boring life. Then perhaps, as she did most days she would go spend most of the day wondering around Knockturn Alley where she was treated like the princess that she was. In Knockturn Alley she never worried about the stares and the whispers that she faced in most every other part of the wizarding world. If it wasn’t the whispers it was being tailed by the Order.
So shortly after finishing her letter she quickly got dressed, bid her beloved father goodbye for the afternoon and headed off. Like most young women, shopping was a great past time… but today had a purpose. Her potion stocks were getting rather low and the only place she ever shopped was at Linda Malfoy’s shop. After all, she was a Death Eater but more importantly she was one of Ursula’s friends.
As Ursula walked down the crowded walk way many people stopped and paid their respects to the daughter of the dark lord. Ursula nodded and spoke for a moment with those she was more friendly with but always ended with “I have some very important business I need to attend to… go well.” It those small things that were starting to get on her nerves, but it was something that she was going to have to deal with being Lord Voldemort’s daughter.
Once she reached the shop Ursula let out a small sigh of relief. She pushed the door open and stood there for a moment before calling out. “Linda… I’m in desperate need of restocking my potion supplies!” Ursula was not going to deal with some common person, that was not like her. She would only deal with Linda herself… no one else
Example 2
For the past year Rhiannon hasn’t been much of any where with out her little girl. Weather it was to the store or to the doctors, Shevon was always with her. Today was no exception. Even on her little shopping trip the proud mama had her little girl in her stroller right along with her.
She still had friends but they seemed fewer and more distant than those she had back in Boston. So little Shevon, for the most part was her only friend. She wished that she had someone who could relate to the trails of being a young mother and the isolation that was coming with being a stay at home mom. Rhiannon knew that going back to work would be the best thing to do but she had trouble with the idea of leaving her baby with a stranger.
So it was another lonely day and she found herself wondering to the mall to spend more money, a fact Sean wouldn’t be too happy about. She found herself stopping in almost every shop and looking at the teenage girls laughing and having a good time and couldn’t help but remember how it wasn’t that long ago that she was one of them. She would quickly be brought back to reality hearing Shevon’s cries for attention.
“It’s ok munchkin…” She said in one of the many trendy children’s clothing stores when her little girl started cry. Rhiannon lent down to pick up her one year old daughter, “I’m here…oh Shevon… look at the pretty clothes..” She said seeing a pink sun dress out of the corner of her eye and walking towards it. “Don’t you think daddy would just hate this…” She said with a small laugh, knowing it was true. “But this…” She said walking towards a black jumper with little skulls on it, “Is much more daddy appropriate…”
