Valerie S. Purge, or better known as Teapot, is the daughter of Aludra & Violette Purge and older sister to Sal Purge. While also, notably, being the Granddaughter of the former Guardian of Magic, Blair. She strives to become a heroine and wants to make people smile using her magic. She is known for being a mutated version of a mampire due to her demonic blood that gave her dangerously high mana, making her more deadly than even her cousin Huella Pastel. This was mostly because of genetics given by her father upon her birth. She specialises using her magic for long ranged attacks.

## **Appearance**

Teapot is a relatively short woman. Despite looking young, she is factually a young adult in human years. It's just that Mampires age slowly. So she's still technically a teenager. Like all mampires, she has a bright lilac skin colour, black sclera with white glowing pupils and long lavender hair. Her hair isn't like regular hair, as it resembles and feels like flesh. She has it tied up in a ponytail on her right side. In the front, she has a big strand that notably covers her left eye. Plus she has four additional strands of hair. Two sticking upwards on the top and two downwards on the right with the former sticking out of her hat. She gained this hairstyle from her mother.

She is also known for having notably large features, like her eyes, hands and having a somewhat thick build. With the latter mostly being in reference to her namesake relating to her being "Short and Stout", which is mostly seen through her healthy thighs and her chest size.

Her usual outfit consists of a Indigo witch hat that’s torn on the back with a black sewed button on the strap, a necklace made of rocks, long black gloves, a indigo dress resembling a wedding dress with a bow behind the corset and 4 black spheres on top of the chest with a black bat shaped emblem in the middle, black leggings and indigo boots with black spheroids on the front and having black parts underneath. On the back of her dress near her chest, she has a black ring shaped emblem. This is to coincide with Grim Susie's cross on her hoodie. Which is a reference to their time playing Noughts and Crosses together. Like with all mampires, a majority of her skin is covered or at least is underneath shadows. This is due to the sun potentially hurting her.

Her casual attire, which also serves are her work attire at the comic store, is a cute indigo dress with a large black scarf, her returning black gloves, leggings and a summer hat. Again, she mostly wears all of this to protect herself from the sun. She is also the one major character to wear something completely unique for her sleepwear. Whereas characters just wear a simple t-shirt with pants. And male characters, such as Ace, are shirtless. Teapot instead wears a adorable dog onesie that's based off a pug. Mainly Grape, a shih-poo originally owned by Paul Williams, later owned by the Gonzalo Family and accompanying mascot of the Citrus Ranch Branding.

When ascended to her Valerie Purge state, her hat disappears and her body turns into hell fire that makes her look intimidating. This form is also known as the Mampire Demon form, a form that her father and grandmother would turn into. The flames seem to have different colours depending on the user's preference. Resulting in Teapot having indigo flames. They are also shaped like her hair but flow upwards like normal flames. She also barely emotes here due to her name being said, which relates to her demonic curse. The rest of her clothes remain however but they are low saturated than normal, possibly relating to her curse. Unlike her grandmother, her irises are still visible when transformed.

## **Personality**

Despite having demonic blood in her veins, Teapot is somewhat childish and absent minded but she is very kind, upbeat and joyful. She’s always cheerful, filled with energy and is always curious about situations she’s in. It’s almost adorable. She was inspired by comic book superheroes that results in her having a heart inspired by a heroic nature and being kind to even the most random of people. But that doesn’t mean she can be serious. She’s very sensitive, caring and supportive, wanting to see the people around her smile and laugh using her skilled magic. Making her the most kind hearted character in the story. Most of the time, she can go through a emotional outburst if she ever feels upset. Which, comically, makes her extremely strong. Being able to pick and throw large objects or cause her to abuse her magic than normal. Her kindness is likely a result of her being raised very well by her parents. Who are also known for their kind nature.

Her weakness tends to be her many problems. For one, Teapot has “Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder” and Asperger's Syndrome. As a result, she does a lot of unexpected things that may seem different to others. These include: Being very easily distracted (especially if it involves something she very much enjoys), tending to be talkative without realising, being very sensitive to loud noises (mainly sirens), having anxiety issues, forgetting things and most notably twirls her hair when she is upset or just at random times when she doesn’t already have something in her hands. She also notably has hay fever, revealed when Cranium and her went to a botanic garden. Although she doesn't have a nose, she mainly itches her eyes. Since she is a mampire, there are times where she uncontrollably hisses when something bad happens like her getting burnt slightly from the sun; that of which is usually followed up with her apologising straight after. She sometimes hates these problems but she tries to remain positive.

Teapot was revealed to be a mutated version of her species. Mainly through her dangerously high mana given from her demonic blood passed over from her father and grandmother. This mutation leads to her Valerie Purge state, which is her turning into her more serious mode after it’s activated by saying her real name. She starts to change. She never smiles, gets upset or anything. She looks like she’s angry and it makes her look intimidating. However, her bubbly kind-hearted personality is still intact, it's just her emotions that might make her seem off-putting. Teapot chooses to go into this state to help with her problems in focusing on fights she's in, which also helps with her magic as it’s more stronger now. As previously mentioned, she is still the same Teapot. So she still would say things Teapot would normally say but in a bored sounding tone. Which can be seen as rather humorous. Her voice also sounds rather demonic too, very much like her grandmother except that she doesn't sound like she is sick.

### **Mana Control**

Her species are known for their control of mana. Teapot herself is a semi-professional mage. She's able to use a lot of magic spells to her advantage. Due to being a mutant, she has dangerously high mana that restores rather fast. With this, she can abuse her magic as much as she can. However, her weakness tends to be how much of a glass cannon she can be. Most of her moves were invented by her mother, Violette Purge.

* **Magic Shield:** Teapot can protect herself using a shield made of magic. She even uses it to parry attacks.
* **Mana Beam:** A powerful beam made of Runic magic that decimates opponents that primarily pops out of magic circles. Originally, the move was fired directly from the mouth but nowadays, the user places the circle in front of them and then fires it. Teapot uses this very differently and her version tends to be more effective. She places the circle normally but then slaps it with her palms that it attaches onto her. She can then do the impossible and move the circle around while it’s on her palm like it’s a arm cannon. Due to her being a mampire, her version is very strong.
* **Arcane Sphere:** A ball made of Arcane magic that pops out of a magic circle and positions itself onto the users hand. The user can then throw it and it will explode like a bomb once it makes contact. Teapot’s version is weak and small but she throws multiple of them at once like a pitcher in baseball.
* **Shadow Friend:** A illusion spell that her grandmother was known for; making use of her shadow to attack. Teapot's version acts like a mirror, copying everything she does. This also includes her own spells. So she can fire arcane spheres from the front and behind her opponents.
* **Mampire Ice:** A ice-based spell. Teapot spews out a icy breath to freeze her opponents.
* **Neutron Thunderbolt:** A electricity-based spell. Her forehead bursts out pillars of electricity that paralyses the opponent completely. This usually gives her a massive headache upon use.
* **Mana Arm Blade:** A natural ability from mampires. They have the ability to make weapons using magic. Teapot and even her mother have access to a arm blade version.
	+ **Cruci-Slash:** One of Violette’s signature skills that was later used by her daughter. It’s mostly a mampire based attack that involves the use of her blade arms. Where she positions her arms in the shape of a X and slashes them with it.

### **Extra-terrestrial Mind Control**

Being part alien, Teapot has access to alien mind control abilities. This is separate from her magic so it doesn't cost mana. However, it takes time to do so. She does use it to help bypass tricky situations such as evil people guarding a post.

### **Vampire Physiology**

Being a mampire, Teapot has a lot of Vampire traits. Mainly drinking blood, turning into a bat, flight and being sensitive to the sun. She doesn't use her bat form that much unless it’s for situations where she wants to cheer someone up due to her very cute appearance when transformed. She wears outfits that covers her body like long gloves and a oversized hat. Teapot has admitted to drinking blood but this is mostly for a gag as she jokingly bites people when she’s hungry. In fact, Grim, on occasion, lets Teapot suck on her blood due to her trait of being generous. Grim usually limits this to once per-day since her blood regenerates naturally after a day like how blood regenerates in 2 days for humans. As time passed, especially after the Vale incident, Teapot drinks plasma instead as it is the better alternative for Mampires who don't want to hunt down people for their blood. Her mother would also follow this path since she originally drank blood to render a unaware opponent unconscious instead of completely sucking the life out of them.

### **Ascension: Valerie Purge**

Teapot’s Ascension. A form she transforms into when her real name is spouted in front of her, which activates her exclusive Mampire Demon form. A form that only she, her father and her grandmother can turn into. Unlike the other users of this transformation, she activates it due to a demonic curse she possesses thanks to her demonic blood. This changes her colour scheme from bright colours to low saturated colours and she has massive indigo hell flames around her, which, unlike her grandmother, removes her hat when transformed. This state merely temporally disables her emotions. Which is a good thing for her and makes her stronger as a whole; allowing her to focus on fights better. Despite her lack of protection from the sun due to removing her hat, the flames seems to help her from this issue; as if her new flame body is a magic barrier. When transformed back to normal, the hat magically appears on her head again.

## **Biography**

### **Backstory**

Teapot was born on an unknown planet. She was given birth by Aludra and Violette Purge after several year after the calamity war. They were currently dealing with moving out from the planet to go to Planet Earth after one of the guardians and Aludra’s mother, Blair, ordered them to do so. It’s there where the family start to make a living in a mansion located in the Northern Land of Concept. Violette and Aludra would later conceive and give birth to Teapot’s younger brother, Sal.

The mansion was formerly owned by Blair. Which happened to be the perfect place for Teapot’s family and as a result, the mansion was known as the Purge Mansion.

Teapot grew up in that mansion for most of her life but she was very lonely. She lacked any friends. That’s until she met an Aranea Draco named Susannah; or as she’s later known as Grim Susie. They met at the Turtlehide Beach and the two would play Noughts and Crosses together and that’s where Teapot became what she is now. A playful and happy individual wanting to make people smile.

When Teapot grew up. She had to attend the funeral of the death of her close friend's mother, Pyro Dominus. Grim later, goes with Teapot to her house when suddenly, Blair visits the Purge Mansion. Teapot was curious on why she is here since she is the one who answered the door, to which Blair confirms she is here because it is to mainly check up on her family. Blair notices Grim and was shocked. The old witch asks the entire family for a meeting

It's there where it's revealed that Grim is a science experiment made by Pyro when she wanted to make a new daughter. Teapot was surprised but she thought this was cool and then she looked at Grim. At first she was upset that she isn't normal to which Teapot says to her "Even if you are different, you are still Susie. And we all think you are a great person!" Grim was happy when she said this. Blair also recommended that Grim and even Teapot should learn magic due to the potential return of Frewil. Without hesitation, Grim and Teapot would learn magic through and through.

Eventually, both Teapot and Grim were trained under Teapot’s parents and Blair to learn witchcraft. However, Grim met her fate when going after Frewil when it was released to the world once again due to a accident made by Blair herself. Teapot couldn’t handle the death of her friend and vowed to take down Frewil once and for all by becoming a heroine.

19 years pass and during this time when Frewil returns once again, Teapot got a job at the comic book store. Which was a place she would go to read comics.

## **Relationships**

### **Aludra and Violette Purge**

Being Teapot’s parents, they are both important figures in her life and she loves them dearly. They taught Teapot to behave nicely and she takes a lot from her mother especially. They both also support Teapot’s dream to make people smile and laugh by using her magic.

### **Sal Purge**

Teapot’s relationship with her younger brother is complicated. She sometimes dislikes how lazy he is and how he likes to scare people trying to visit their home. However, she still loves her brother with Sal being the same but he barely shows this affection on the outside. She is older than him by 2 years.

### **Blair**

Blair is Teapot’s grandmother; being Violette’s mother. She acted like the typical grandparent type to Teapot and her family. It was her idea for the family to move to earth. When Teapot was asked by Susie about her via a painting of her in the mansion, the mampire says that she is very creepy but likeable. She was the one to teach Teapot and Grim her magic abilities like Mana Beam, Arcane Sphere, Etc.

### **Grim Susie**

Grim Susie is Teapot’s very close BFF growing up. They first met at the Turtlehide Beach at a very young age and they played Noughts and Crosses on the sand. Later on, she discovers that Grim is the daughter of Pyro Dominus; who is one of the guardians. All while Grim discovers Teapot is the granddaughter of Blair. Both her and Teapot train to learn magic via Teapot’s parents although Grim is more of a physical fighter than a long-ranged fighter. Teapot was scared when Grim went on her own to fight Frewil that resulted in her death. Teapot was absolutely upset over her death. Back then, if Teapot were to get hungry, she would ask for Grim for her blood. Grim would be weirded out by this at first but she would allow it. Since her blood regenerates really fast due to being a Aranea Draco. Grim allowing this shows that she cares for Teapot too and is actually the reason why Teapot is who she is today since she is the first friend she’s ever made.

### **Alex & Tiff Pastel**

Teapot met the married couple on Alex’s plane. it's there where she gets info about Susie Pastel. Alex and Tiff trusted Teapot to not harm Susie despite her species once being feared. Teapot thinks Alex in particular is weird for waiting for her to wake up on his plane while he was flying around in circles but she opened up to him and Tiff. This seems to be the only true interaction she has with these two, as her relationship with the two are merely Acquaintances.

### **Susie Pastel**

Teapot first met Susie when she was on a mission to find Grim’s reincarnation. Which happens to be this Susie here. Besides reuniting with Grim via a ghost that appears alongside the Aranea Draco, Teapot becomes good friends with Susie. She would allow Teapot to suck her blood like Grim but she feels more uncomfortable doing so. Susie sees Teapot as a extremely nice person to be around; very much like Grim.

### **Ace Shoryu**

Teapot was inspired by Ace when reading comics depicting his life. Later on, Ace accepts Teapot as his minor sidekick when he returns back to the living realm. Ace acts like a older brother to Teapot; as well as a master. Teapot states that he reminds her of Grim albeit less aggressive.

### **Sir Cranium**

Due to being Ace’s partner, Teapot is acquainted to Cranium. They first met when Teapot arrives at Cranum’s treehouse in the jungle. At first she was scared of him. Due to being a skeleton of a giant. But Cranium, like with many others, eventually acts like a grandfather to Teapot. He’s usually the one to give her nice advice in life and she is easily entertained by his jokes to the point where she can’t stop laughing.

### **Olivia Emerald**

Olivia is known for being the author of several pieces of literature. One of them being the comics depicting Ace’s life that Teapot was inspired by and reads on occasion. Teapot first met Olivia one day and she was happy to meet her and wanted a autograph which she thankfully did.

### **Helga Terrifang**

Helga first met Teapot when Susie brought her to the Purge Mansion. Like with Susie, Teapot is good friends with Helga. She loves how upbeat Helga is but she doesn’t know she’s hiding her melancholy thoughts about her mother. She also loves the song Helga sings, which happens to be a song Kako would sing to her. Eventually, Teapot would witness Helga lashing out at her by literally punching her in the face when she was trying to comfort her. This was due to being enraged by what Frewil said to her about her mother. Since Teapot, or Susie for that matter, didn’t know Helga was going through depression over her mother being used as a vessel for Frewil. At that point, even if Helga literally ran away after she hit the mampire, Teapot was still worried about Helga but was very much upset over her lashing out on her. When Helga returned, she literally literally went to talk to Teapot for forgiveness and to explain why she was upset. Teapot, being the extremely pure hearted woman she is, accepted Helga’s apology and since then, they’ve been great friends. It’s implied that Teapot and Helga got more to know each other more via sleepovers and hangouts.

### **Kyin**

Kyin despised Teapot a lot. But that’s mainly because she’s a mampire; referring to them literally killing his family. As for how Teapot feels about him, she’s very much scared of him. With how he keeps saying he’s beyond his humanity and will destroy every mampire he sees. Teapot keeps saying Mampires have changed but he wouldn’t listen and due to his influence with Frewil with how he was turned into a demonic slave, Teapot had to take him down.

### **Evelyn**

Teapot encountered Evelyn when she saved Susie. Like with Kyin, she is extremely scared of Evelyn. She notes saying her absorbing people of their essences is similar to her own vampiric abilities. When Helga explains to Teapot on why she was maddened by what Evelyn said, the mampire ended up hating Evelyn completely for how evil she was.

### **Frewil**

Like with many others, Frewil is Teapot’s enemy. She was upset over him killing Grim and countless of other things he’s done throughout the years. They met in person during her Arc and she quotes saying that just looking at him reminds her of what he did to Grim. But due to Grim now being right next to her alongside her reincarnation during Susie’s Arc much later, she wasn’t worried anymore and like several others, she wants to stop Frewil once and for all.

## **Trivia**

* Teapot’s name is referencing the nursery rhyme “I’m A Little Teapot”. This is evident from her being short and having a thick build which is derived from the line “Short and Stout”. Her title also references this.
	+ Her real name, Valerie Purge, is a Walpurgis pun. As it is derived from “Walpurge” only the “W” is changed to a “V”. This mostly relates to her and her family being Mages. The name, Valerie however, could refer to Latin Orgins. As it means “strong” or “healthy”. Which relates to Teapot being raised to be a strong mampire by her parents and having quote "healthy thighs".
	+ Her middle name, Sapphire. is in reference to her birthstone.

* Teapot was first designed when making villain characters for previous concepts for Wowlife. She’s had a rough start through her designs. She started off as just a villain character who’s personality resembles that of her Valerie Purge form. Her appearance was drastically different. Her skin was red and hair was blue. She had nostrils like a Aranea Draco and had patterns on her cheeks. For clothes, she wore a white vest and her hat had a weird yellow circle on it. She also wore a Mage cloak which was something that Teapot would later wear in other concepts. In other words, it was a mess of colours. She eventually became what she is today. A character filled with so much personality and being a very beloved character. Her colour palette is more cleaner and consistent too.
	+ Upon her transition to traditional art to digital art, her purple colour palette has been changed to a more Indigo colour.
* Her likes consists of:
	+ Plasma/Blood
	+ Making Others Happy
	+ Comic Books
	+ Magic
	+ Lighthearted humour
	+ Her relationship with her Family & Friends
* Her dislikes consists of:
	+ Being alone
	+ Garlic
	+ The sun
	+ Breaking a Promise
	+ Her Uncontrollable Hissing
* Similarly to Susie's Linked Form Ascension, Teapot originally would fuse with Grim to create a separate being named Vale. Who's name is a combination of Teapot's real name "Valerie" and the name "Susie". Her appearance is a mix of Teapot and Grim's appearances and she would act flirty due to Teapot's upbeat personality being fused with Grim's arrogant attitude. This was changed due to Grim fusing with Susie instead; with the linked form also having a simpler design.
	+ The name, Vale, would eventually become the name for her aunt, Vale Pastel. And some of her visual design would be given to her cousin, Huella Pastel.
* Her Necklace was originally a plain black necklace due to the limits Con Air had with the traditional pieces. Due to the power of digital art, the necklace was changed to be a stone/rock necklace. In lore, she made this when she was a child using many rocks on the Turtlehide beach where she met Grim. It also serves as a memento to Grim since the two of them made it together.
* In previous concepts, Teapot was one of the two surviving Mampires to never die. The other being her brother, Sal. This was changed so that Mampires are one of the many dominant races to roam earth after their planet was destroyed.
	+ In the original concept for Wowlife, her parents would die. Kyin would kill Violette and Aludra would die to his own son due to Sal being a villain in original concepts.
* Teapot, coincidentally, is a combination of 3 known fictional “monsters” seen in monster movies or any other pieces of media. Those being a alien, due to her originally living in a separate planet to earth and having big alien eyes. A vampire, due to her species literally being vampires with the only difference being that they can’t make others Mampires. And lastly, a witch. Due to her taking after her mother, who was known as the “Sapphire Witch” by having access to magic and primarily wearing a witch like hat. Besides the fact Con Air loves Vampires and being the main inspiration for Teapot's design, it is mostly based on the Sims series. Since these three types of monsters are three of the many types of sims you can control throughout most, if not all the main line games besides the normal sims themselves.
* Teapot was designed and inspired after her appearance in the game Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 as one of Con Air's created characters. In that game, she is a female Majin. She takes a lot from female majins too. Notably her hair not being regular hair but rather fleshy hair. Which might sound gross to some.
	+ Besides her hairstyle being based on the Female Majin Hairstyle 25, her hair is also based on Squigly from Skullgirls. Due to Con Air drawing her constantly in the past and wanting to adapt how fun she was to draw over to Teapot.
		- As of writing this, Teapot has been changed to Mirai but still kept Teapot's name due to not being able to change your character's name in Xenoverse.
* Her bubbly personality is based on Bubbles from the original Powerpuff Girls, as well as Rolling Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls Z. The former show being a cartoon that Con Air is very fond of.
	+ Con Air headcanons Bubbles's original voice actress, Tara Strong, to be the main inspiration for what Teapot would sound like if she were to ever get a voice. Using her voice for Bubbles as one of the many examples.
* The idea of her being a gifted/mutant version of her species is based on the concept used for Marvel's X-men.
* She was originally depicted with a valley girl accent. This was because in previous Wowlife concepts, she lived on a island. Nowadays, her accent would be up to the imagination.
