Eye Color Green Hair Color Blonde Species Incarnation of Immortality Time Chronos Appearance Valerie is a lovely young-seeming woman that has taken on the duty of Time. Though often thought of as Father Time, her role has not taken any of her feminine power but instead given her personal strength she didn't know existed within herself. Though beautiful in life, Valerie has become quite a vixen in death. She has taken life to the fullest and lives perpetually with a new light in her eyes. Personality Valerie, upon initial meeting, typically seems to be very distant when speaking with people. She will drift off in conversation and seems to be thinking of a lot all at once. Though she is kind, she is a rather blunt person and doesn't really understand how to sugar-coat her wording. She comes across sometimes as vain, as she cares a great deal for her apppearance and works hard to stay beautiful. Overall, she isn't a terrible person and is rather kind but she doesn't seem very approachable at first glance. She is sexually rather aggressive with her approaches and doesn't enjoy mincing words. This is something she learned after death and not before it. Strengths Can see mulitple different futures and can sometimes predict which is most likely Immune t human sickness and disease Can pause, speed up, slow, or reverse time at her will Weaknesses Lives backwards see powersabilities Still holds onto human fears Can be killed, though it's tricky Fears True death. Though she has by all means died once before, her soul has not been reaped by Thanatos and she fears the day it will be taken. PowersAbilities As the Deity of Time, Val is able to manipulate time to her will. She can stop it for short periods or turn it back as she sees fit to get a desirable result. She works most closely with Fate and Death, though will dabble some with Gaea Nature. Hourglass A grand tool of Time, the Hourglass is what permits for her to manipulate time at her will. It can be made to be any size that she wishes and is filled with golden sands.To manipulate time backwards, she will make sands from the bottom return to the top. To stop time, the sands stop flowing. Cloak Her cloak gives her the ability to not be affected by the change in Time. While everything else moves backwards, she will be protected and be able to move forward. She can extend the protection of the cloak to cover others, but rarely employs this unless necessary. Living Backwards Time is an odd Incarnation in the fact that her life is constantly lived backwards. She will only hold her Office for as long as her human life was - 28 years. When she reaches the point of her human life's creation, she will have to pass her Hourglass off to another human. This is advantageous for her in the fact that she sees all the futures that could be but is forever in surprise when others don't know them as well. This also causes issues with her relationships as she remembers things that already have happened as opposed to their memories of her, which are less. Background Born human, Valerie lived a rather happy and quiet life in Canada. Unfortuantely, her parents sacrificed home life for working to provide for their child financially. Valerie grew up with emotionally distant parents and didn't learn to connect. Until she met Derrick. Derrick was the love of her life and a charmer, a man older than her by 7 years and well-spoken. He conned her into his bed when she was just seventeen and had her dangling by a string at his heels until her untimely death at 28. Derrick convinced her to sink all of her savings into his business plan, which she later found out to be him having sex with other women. It wasn't until he accused her of making him cheat that she lost herself completely and gave up on her human life. Desperate to end her own selfish suffering, Val made an attempt at her own life. She was moments from true death when an hourglass seemed to appear from nowhere and she felt compelled to touch it. The Hourglass saved her from a true death and sent her to Purgatory to learn about her new status as Chronos. Though she initially balked at the idea of being in control of Time, she found it fitting to watch as her past was written and watched the events that lead to her death unfold in front of her eyes. Her first few years as Time were tricky as she learned to deal with the other deities and finally came to terms with her new life. It is confusing, at times, considering she lives her life backwards, but she finds she enjoys her rather solitary life as Time as it gives her a chance to focus on herself. She works now to love herself instead of pouring her love into someone else and she has formed a somewhat infatuation with a much older deity, Thanatos.
