Ramlethal Valentine

**Ramlethal Valentine** is a character in the *Guilty Gear* series, who first appeared as a non-playable boss character in the arcade version of *Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-*. She later became a playable character in an update on April 8, 2014.

## Personality

The life forms collectively known as Valentine, which are birthed in theBackyard, are devoid of emotions. They have no values of their own, no concept of right or wrong and neither like or dislike anything.

It is because of this that they view the orders from the one called "Mother" as absolute commands that are not to be questioned.There is no thought or affection, nor any feelings of doubt or restraint - only a machine-like obedience of carrying out a mission. The Valentines view themselves as merely to be used to achieve a goal.

However, in the creature known as Ramlethal, one can detect signs of faint but undeniable emotions. Valentines, in general, are unable to place any kind of value on anything other than their assigned target. Without any thoughts, feelings or desires of their own, these creatures do not possess the capacity for falsehood, making them naive in their honesty. However, Ramlethal is able to withhold information as well as play dumb in order to bluff her way through certain situations.

Though she is not aware of it, she has personality all her own. In Story mode, Ramlethal starts to open up thanks to Sin and Elphelt, developing emotions and fondness for a magehound.

Following her encounter with Bedman, Ramlethal no longer refers herself as a tool of "Mother" but as "unique".

## Powers and abilities

Ramlethal Valentine uses balloon-styled familiars named Lucifero as a weapon, like the previous Valentine. However, unlike the latter, Ramlethal uses two, one black and another white, which can combine with each other. She carries two Greatswords which she can summon and telekinetically control. She can also alter their size and increase their destructive capabilities by charging them with energy. Her cloak is organic and changes its shape to whatever she chooses so it can be used as a weapon during battle. She can generate claws made of energy, bind her enemies within a magic field, fire various energy bursts and projectiles, and materialize a green barrier to protect herself. She is also incredibly fast, capable of closing the distance between herself and an opponent instantaneously. Ramlethal also possesses a self-destruct mechanism.

As a soul candidate for Justice as well as a Copy of her, she is exceptionally powerful, as it has been stated by various characters, including Dizzy, Ky and Sol. Haekyun's Tuning analysis states that of her Ki structure is like a "Wind Instrument", meaning that she has a vast amount of mana without a filter to regulate it. Uncovering her hidden emotions and gaining a drive beyond her Mother's orders has made her even stronger, as implied in -REVELATOR-.
