Valerie Allen

*"I know that it's not easy for you to let something like this go, but...we are on the cusp of something great here. The removal of the Blood-born is something that's just too big to pass up. Harriet, the board is bringing in Deacon Min to help us bring them down. The goddamned Scalpel is coming back from the UEE for this. I can't have you going against my orders while we're trying to organise something like this. It's just...too important."*
― Valerie confronting Harriet[src]
**Valerie Allen** is a Detective Chief Inspector at the Anti-Vampire Department. She is an important member of the force and is one of the main organisers of the Blood-born Extermination Operation. Prior to her promotion to DCI, she was a good friend of Harriet Green and still is to this day.

## History

Not much is known about Valerie's life before the show other than at some point, she joined the AVD.

## Appearances

### Season 1

#### "We Tell Ourselves"

Upon seeing an overworked Harriet, Valerie urges her to go home and get some rest.

#### "The Thirst"

Valerie is present at the fight at the Blood-born's base.

#### "Life Sucks"

The next day, Valerie congratulates Harriet and Boris for their work in finding the Blood-born's base. She then orders them to work on finding any survivors so that they can help eradicate the gang, despite Harriet's desire to keep looking for Henka's killer.

#### "Deliver Us"

Valerie asks Harriet to come with her to look for a reported member of the Blood-born. While on the way, Valerie confronts her, telling her that she is still investigating Henka. She then tells her that The Scalpel, Deacon Min, is coming to the AVD to help eradicate the Blood-born and that she can't be dividing the department to look for random murderers at the moment. They then come across Nils, chasing and killing three of his underlings before catching up to him on a rooftop. Nils leaps onto the next building, leaving the two of them behind.

#### "Bloody Situation"

Harriet tells Valerie what she saw in the catacombs and they estimate where their base must be. She then welcomes Deacon Min to the department and he instructs her to show him what they have so far.

#### "Vampire: Part One"

After Valerie and Deacon go over the plan for the attack, Harriet breaks the news that the Blood-born have stolen a supply of weapons and that they may have found out about the assault. Later, she consoles Harriet after she appears worried about Boris. The two of them then watch the church, where they catch four vampires trying to escape.

#### "Vampire: Part Two"

Harriet and Valerie continue to fight throughout the catacombs, killing multiple vampires. After the fight, Harriet comes across Boris' dead body, breaking down into tears and crying over him while Valerie tries to console her.

### Season 2

#### "What Happens Now"

Valerie attends the funeral of all the AVD members that died during the raid. Later, she comforts Harriet after she says that she blames herself for Boris' death.

## Personality

Valerie is committed to her work and despises vampires with a passion. When it comes to her work, she is ruthless and cares only about bringing vampires to justice. That said, she still cares about the well-being of her subordinates, though not so much that she will allow it to interfere with her work.

## Relationships

### Harriet Green

Harriet and Valerie appear to have a healthy relationship. She looks out for Harriet and suggests that she go home for rest. Their relationship seems to become strained, however, when Harriet insists on investigating the death of Henka. Despite this, Harriet obeys her commands and moves on from the Henka case.
