**Valkira Acoria** is a tabaxi rogue who is among the adventurers of Wildtrace. She is played by Kyla Robinson.

## Description

### **Early Life**

Valkira is a female tabaxian rogue from the Slums of Fabled Cay. She grew up being part of a clan of thieves called "The Reflected Aura" with her twin brother Clover. Clover and Valkira were both extremely close, always a duo no matter what and promising to never abandon the other under no circumstances. Both of them had fully put their heart into always doing whatever it takes to keep the Reflected Aura safe because it was their home.

During the time, Valkira also had a best friend with the clan named Opal, whom she dearly trusted almost as much as she trusted Clover.

Until one night, Opal and a few other members of the Reflected Aura decided to use Clover as a trade piece to an enemy clan to keep others safe. Valkira found Opal trading them off and did her best to fight and stop her from succeeding. But she was left with many scars from the fight, eventually losing the battle and losing Clover.

Not long after, Opal and the few members of the clan booted out Valkira and lied saying, "She went AWOL and betrayed the whole clan."

Valkira soon after changed her last name to Acoria and began to wear clothing that kept her unrecognizable, especially covering her scarred cut mouth as well. Months since then, she had received a letter of ransom from the clan that had taken Clover away, saying if she sends over the money, she will get her brother back. Valkira now has a mission and will not let anyone pull her away from achieving what she needs to do to get the money to save her brother.

### **Appearance**

As a tabaxi, she is blonde with various brown spots around her body and has peridot green eyes. She wears a dark green shirt, brown shorts, and a black mask that covers the lower half of her face. When revealed, there is a scar across her mouth.

### **Personality**

Valkira is often cold, straight forward, and one-track minded. She often doesn't trust anyone and will do what she has to, even if it means stepping on others to achieve her goal. She became this way after losing Clover and has no plans on changing how she is anytime soon.

   As much as she puts on the front of being a lone wolf, she misses being in a clan or group and knowing who she can trust but is deep down scared to let her vulnerable side show or being nice to others.

## Journey

### **Chapter 1 (Episodes 1 - Present)**

Valkira is seen to be on a ship, covered by a hood along with Mathias, Zhaleska, and Nerida. Her hood is then uncovered and she introduces herself to the group.

As the group meets Giy, they are given very little detail about the job, but they see a heavily chained, bagged humanoid. They are given the mission to take the being to a monastery, but not much more details are given. Valkira is the first of the group to see through Giy's lies.

At the campsite, Valkira runs a card game of 21 (an allusion to Blackjack). She wins the first round, but loses the second round to Giy. Nothing eventful happens during her shift. As the next morning comes, they all walk through the forest, only for Giy to trigger a trap. Mathias sees a blue light and is nearly attacked by a mysterious construct.

During the battle, Valkira attempts to make shots with her shortbow in the beginning but has made very little impact. However, in the end, she dealt the killing blow and making the construct explode.

After the battle, Nerida reveals her encounter with the bagged creature. Valkira is colored with skepticism and is concerned that if the group sets Lunegar free. She then engages in a quarrel with the rest of the group about whether to set Lunegar free and risk punishment or send him to the monastery and receive the reward, showing hostility and even threatening the rest of the party.

When the group arrives at the monastery, they are given gold ingots. Valkira makes a risky move by grabbing the bag of ingots and running away from the monastery. As they do, they are rescued by a dark skinned, black haired human named Minu. They are teleported to a headquarters where they meet another being named Anhwell. While the group is discussing the Materiai with Minu, Valkira counts the number of golden ingots in the bag and pays no mind to the group.

The next morning as the group is eating, Valkira offers that they could eat Nimbus. However, Mathias reminds them that Nimbus is technically a familiar and will just disappear if "killed." After Mathias notices the tear in her clothes, he offers to mend it for her, which she declines.

As the group makes it the Slope Inn, Valkira is offered a peculiar drink called Herald's Edge, which she declines after seeing Nerida suffer. She, along with Zhaleska, go over to the gambling table to play cards. After Zhaleska wins the first round, Valkira offers to change the rules: whoever wins, info is offered.

After Zhaleska's win, Valkira learns about the foot soldiers, the stone constructs that the group fought previously, and how they caused destruction to the point where the three allying cities almost declared war.

## Relationships

### **Mathias Erranduil**

There is not much about the interaction between the two of them, but it can be shown that they can tolerate each other as long as they do not test each other and not get on each other's bad side.

### **Nerida Trenchfell**

The two of them seem to bicker a lot as shown in episodes 2 and 3.
