Stella Valentino

**Stella Valentino** is a character roleplayed by Trrebl3.

## General Information

Stella Valentino has an eccentric personality that seems to be several extremes of various things. With intense emotions coursing through her at any moment, she often comes of as disoriented and unhinged. However, this is usually the exact opposite because although she looks scattered brain, she usually has a precise goal in mind.

Stella has an undoubtedly good heart although the alignment may be a bit off. With unwavering loyalty for her family echoing her brain consistently, her good heart might reflect negatively. Stella would give all of herself and more for her people which sometimes ends up with her, and others, in very sticky situations.

Since the apocalypse, Stella has vowed to never show her face again except to her family. This is to keep the separation of what used to be and what is now clear. She feels herself slipping from the person she once was and every time she wakes up, she knows that she will end up killing hundreds of people who used to be just that, people. The Kkangppae way was to never steal from the average man and everyday she feels herself betraying that motto.

## Backstory

Stella Valentino, formerly Stella Lovecraft, began her life on the outskirts of Los Santos. Born into a wealthy family, growing up, Stella never really had to worry about much. The beginning of her family's wealth stemmed by her great-great-great-great grandfather, HP Lovecraft. (Yes, she did rewrite history.) The love for art dwindled with each passing generation until what remained was nothing but your standard money-hungry family with an ever growing family business.

Stella lived her life conditioned to belief that her destiny would be to inherit the family business and this did nothing but push her further and further away from her family. On her 22nd birthday, Stella's family announced that it would be her time to take up the helm and that sent Stella spiraling into a panic. That very night, she hopped out of her bedroom window and started running and never stopped. To this day, Stella's family still doesn't know where she has gone, and she doesn't plan to change that.

## Pre-Apocalypse

Stella Valentino started in Los Santos wide-eyed and optimistic. That all took a turn when she stood up to the leader of one of the most powerful gangs in the city for insulting her. From then, she was thrust into the unfamiliar but alluring gang life where soon, everyone in the city would know her name. Stella’s character oozed charm, and personability stretching past her appearance. Soon, she would find a home that would utilize her to her full capability.

Stella was given the opportunity to join the infamous gang Kkangppae. There she met her newfound family and worked her way up the ladder until she became Sunbae, a mentor and diplomat for the gang. Creating a bond that could never be destroyed, Stella's loyalty became unwavering.

Under the mentorship of her soon-to-be-adopted mother, Kitty Valentino, she cultivated a skill that would open numerous doors for her. Literally. With her help, Stella became one of the most skilled hackers in the city. There wasn't a bank she couldn't crack, a vault she couldn't open, a system she couldn't bypass. Suddenly she was no longer just pretty, but deadly too.
