His older sister is married to the King, making King Belzeneff his brother-in-law, but he is also a good friend of his. Valiant has a considerable amount of magic, and the only reason he wasn't exiled or executed was because of his relationship with the King and Queen. Instead of isolation, he was allowed to live a normal life, just as long as he made a contract to wear a collar around his neck that tracks and restricts the amount of magic he uses. If he exceeds his limit or tries to remove it, it will explode and consequently kill him. Because of this, he has pushed all of his children to get a good career so that if he ever dies, they will all be able to support themselves on their own and not fall into poverty. All of his fortune and estate would go back to the King, but Valiant has made his sister promise that it would all go to his wife instead. When he was younger, Valiant was a Protector and was one of Belzeneff's most prized bodyguards. During a visit from the royal leaders of vampires, one of their bodyguards tried to attack Belzeneff and Valiant shielded him and took the hit, resulting in the loss of his right eye. After that, Valiant was honorably discharged from the Protectors and was given a comfortable desk a job in the Wizard's Council. But before leaving, he and the other Protectors combined their magic to create Kyuberos, a constant companion and protector to the King. He retired from his job, after the death of his son Valor, and became a stay at home dad. He met his wife, Dionysus, when she healed him after the vampire attack. He was attracted to her straight from the start but was too shy to do anything about it. He was afraid to ask her out because he thought that she would be too disgusted by him and reject him, after seeing the horrendous wound his eye had become. He was very self-conscious about his eye because after living his entire life with people telling him that he was beautiful, he didn't know how he would handle it if everyone suddenly thought he was ugly, all because he was missing one of his eyes. He probably would have never talked to Dionysus again if it hadn't been for the routine check-ups to make sure that the wound had closed properly. During those short check-ups, a delicate friendship started and eventually blossomed into a blissful romance. Dionysus taught him how to accept himself, with all of his new imperfections, and her love gave him a new outlook at life. He matured from the pampered rich kid he was born to be into a responsible and thoughtful adult. Valiant is now a devoted father of fifteen children and did his best raising them with his wife. But when one of his sons, Valente, began to show signs of being a powerful magic user, he got worried. He didn't know if the King's kindness would extend to his son, and even if it did, he did not want Valente to grow up wearing the same collar he had, so he placed a protective seal on his son's soul that contained his magical potential. This caused Valente to appear very weak, so when he was nominated for the Wizard's Council, he was given the title of a parole officer. By this time, Valiant's oldest son, Valentine, was already an ambassador and was the apple of his father's eye. Everything was fine until Valente's magic became too much for Valiant to contain and it broke. All of the pent up energy came rushing out at once and Valiant and Valyn had to combine their powers to make a temporary seal. It was then that Valiant confessed to Valente that he had put a seal on his power to hide him from the King and that exile or execution were his only options....if he stayed in Wiz. So together, Valiant, his wife and Valente came up with a plan to get Valente out of Wiz and into safety. It was supposed to be simple, just Valente quickly breaking his seal in the middle of the night and disappearing into another world, but things changed the night before the operation was supposed to commence . Still holding the position of a parole officer, Valente was invited to a party held by Valentine, and it was there that he met the Prince of Demons. The two got into an argument and Valente ended up breaking his seal, turned the Prince into a duck, sent him into a different world, and then left through his own portal. King Belzeneff saw this as an attack against himself and labeled Valente as a traitor of the people, placing a heavy bounty on his head. Thankfully though, Valente's stunt was considered an individual attack and the Mancini family kept their wealth and positions in the Council. Except for Valerio, Valiant's youngest son, who was fired for unexplained reasons and developed a personal vendetta against his brother, choosing to follow Valente through the alternate timelines with the King's blessing. Valiant and his wife, along with the rest of their children, still remain in Wiz and wait for the day Valente and Valerio returns. Valiant is loyal to the King, but does recognize the oppression of the lower class. He doesn't say anything though, because he just wants the best for his family, and if that means throwing other people under a bus, then that is what he is going to do.
