Personality: Valence is a young, intellectual and ambitious girl. She’s clearly not just beauty, but brains too which is shown with her highly attained skills, orientation around Streoewana as well.  At times people have described her as a selfish, cunning woman. But deep down, Valence is caring and loving towards those who she cares about and loves. But she is not afraid to stand up for herself and eliminate competition, if someone poses a threat to her Tribe.
When in Battle she’s almost always victorious, highly vigilant and ruthless. She shows no mercy to the weak or enemies.
Valence is also highly loyal to her religion and worship of the Egyptian Gods.

Bio: Born in the distant planes of Streoewana, Valence Echo is the daughter of Chief Alpha Echo from the tribes of Efilan that reside in the Stuvaln Wilds. Valence is the only child of the Alpha and his wife in their tribe. Valence grew up being taught by the best, the skills of expertise and knowledge have been passed down to her by the Elders as well as her parents. Even though at the age of 25, people from their tribe believe that she will one day make a good and worthy leader of the Efilan Tribe. 
Valence had spent most of her early years being trained and educated by the people of her Tribe. But there were times where she was allowed a normal childhood, go exploring and do all those things that a young child would do; even if it meant having fun by getting into trouble. As she grew older, she visited the temples of the Egyptian gods and spent hour ours admiring and worshiping the beauty of the Gods and their temples.
When she was 18, her mother sadly passed away after a duel between the Shifters and the Hybrids The Cerulean Territories. This left Valence as one of the few women left in the Efilan Tribe. Her father has tried to marry her off a few dozen times, but it seems like no one can keep up with the young woman.
Valence is the Beta of the Tribe and she helps teach young children and the rest of the women of the tribe, as well as proving them with food and protection.

[hider=The Efilan Tribe]
The Efilan Tribe is quite a large tribes in the depths of the Stuvaln Wilds. There are only a few mortals or half-breeds among the Leopard Shifters (those being the rescued or young children, if some of the men and women mixed with a mortal from the other regions of Streoewana). They are like a one big family, protecting their own and very loyal to one another, until deceit and lies destroy their ties to each other.
In their Tribe, the Chief Alpha is regarded as the King that rules over the Tribe (Bring the chosen ruler and leader by the Gods). They are treated like Royalty among the commoners.  After The Pharaoh it is said to be believed, that they are next in line in the Graph of Hierarchy.[/hider]
  
[hider=Their Religion]
The Efilan tribe are worshippers of the Egyptian Gods. The temples devoted to the Gods can be found in the Scarlet Realms where the Tribes people visit often, to show their respects and provide their gifts/or sacrifices on the full moon or the duration of rain.
Their biggest believes include: The God Ra provides them with the sunshine. Each night he would get swallowed by the Sky Goddess Nut, and reborn with each sunrise.
The Goddess Isis would offer them help in a time of need, or any time the Efilan people would make a worthy sacrifice. 
The Goddess Amunet is secretly hidden Among them and is the secret behind their witchcraft and healing magic.
The God Amitt is the Devourer of Death, he helps Anubis with judgement and eats the hearts of those who are not worthy.
The Dead souls of the Efilan people pass through the Final River after Judgment if they survive. After survival of the Judgement they are united with the Gods of their worship and hard works.[/hider]

[hider=The Cerulean Territories]
The Cerulean Territories are ruled over by the Hybrids. They have been known to be the enemies of the Leopard Shifters since the dawn of time. The Territories are a no-zone for many, apart from the Brave of stubborn minded people. The Cerulean planes are full of danger and death. The Vampires and Werewolves rule along-side the Hybrids, due to their alliance through blood and next of Kin through Inter Marriages. [/hider]

[hider=The Scarlet Realms]
The Scarlet Realms is known as the Pharaoh's Empire. He is charge of all the Mythical and Mystical Creatures surrounding Streoewana, it’s also mostly a home for the commoners and Mortals of the Realm. When the people of the Tribes and the surrounding parts of Streoewana don’t gather or hunt their fruit from the Wild, they get it at the daily market in the Town’s square. It’s a place where many including the Efilan come for more entertainment outside of the Tribes Village.
On the Outskirts of the Scarlet Realms are the Temples devoted to the Egyptian Gods. Some of them are guarded by a Shifter Guardian or some of them have a Priestess or a Priest to look after them. [/hider]

[hider=The Enigma Terrain]
This Part of the Streoewana is the home to many more Mythical Creatures including the other Shapeshifters, Elves, Faerie Folk, Half-lings, Orcs, Angels and much more. They work alongside each other to keep their home and the rest of the realm protected from Danger. The Enigma Terrain is rumored to the the most beautiful and peaceful of all the Realms when it comes to the Nature and it’s secrets.
The woods expand to the Stuvaln Wilds where many of the Mythical creatures hide and reside. The waterfalls and lakes are the homes of the alluring Sirens and Nymphs that help protect the natural springs.[/hider]

[hider=The Final Lake]
The Final Lake is the place of the dead. Judgement day happens in this part of Streoewana. Those souls who pass, shall enter the Realm of the Egyptian Gods and await their awards.  Those who are not worthy and have sinned, get punished and banned into the Underworld by the Demonic Guards that live around the swamps near by.
Those who drink from the lake, gain the ability to see the dead on the other side. If someone has the desire to swim across the lake; they drown and join the dead and await their judgement by the Gods.[/hider]
