The most apt description for Val is that of a giant puppy; all big paws and sparking eyes with a toothy grin that radiates excitement. She's the type of person to roll out of bed in the morning bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready to face the day. Excitable and warm, she's a good friend to have that would drop anything for another person - if she knew they needed it. After all, trying to get this oblivious girl to take a hint is like throwing eggs at a brickwall. Pointless.

Val takes her training very seriously, and is an absolute powerhouse of a person since it focuses on weightlifting. She's actually been catching the eye of a few trainers after winning various competitions, and now has her own eye on beating the Women's Deadlifting world record. The problem is despite having this lofty goal the fact of the matter is, much to Val's chagrin, she fits the dumb jock stereotype more than she'd like to admit. Still, she's pleased to have at least been accepted into BCC, since while she works hard her grades don't seem to reflect it.

The Coven is a new experience that, for once, will leave Val flat flooted. Concerned that these special abilities make her own efforts worth little, she's trying to hide her growing self-doubt behind a worry for the others caught up in this mess.[/center]

[h3][b][color=#990000]Relationships[/color][/b][/h3]

[b][u]{NPC} Stravos Silaov:[/u][/b] Father. Being a bit of a Daddy's girl, Val adores her father, and when they're together you can see where she gets her beastly proportions from. Of course, he cares for his daughter just as much, enough to uproot his family's life for her.

[b][u]{NPC} Nadia Siloav:[/u][/b] Mother. Nadia is the reason her family could afford a rather abrupt immigration, as well as keep them afloat. She is a well known violinist and composer, and wishes Valeria would show a bit more interest in her craft.

[h3][b][color=#990000]History[/color][/b][/h3]

The Siloav family originally hails from Russia, Valeria being born in the port city of Yakutsk. From seemingly the day she was born, she was a Daddy's girl, content to shadow her father in everything he did. Stravos doted on his daughter in turn, and as such when his little girl begged to join him on his morning runs in the cold of dawn, all he could do was bundle her up and carry her back home when her little legs got tired. As the years past, soon she was keeping up with him, and then he was the one trying to keep up with her. Stravos, after all, was a former Olympic strongman, and just like her father before her Valeria was soon taking to anything physical like a fish in water.

Of course considering where she ended up, Valeria didn't end up staying in Yakutsk forever. It was when she was thirteen that Val let it slip she had her first kiss. With a female classmate. Her parents initially hoped it was just a phase, that it would pass. Val told them honestly it wasn't. So they accepted her, despite all their worries of her being persecuted in a country that still saw it was something to be ashamed of. It was this worry, this love for their only child, that led to the Siloav parents to make a very large decision with their lives, and move away from Yakutsk to somewhere their entire family could be happy.

It wasn't easy immigrating to America, and at first Val was just considered an awkward, towering foreigner to her classmates. It took time to find her place fitting in with others, but she was friendly and sincere and quite frankly a good friend to have. Even if she never stopped towering over classmates - even current day she's over six feet tall. Eventually though she made friends, even a best friend, and happily spent her high school years continuing to scrape by with mediocre grades and a focus on entering (and even winning!) as many junior dead lift competitions as she could.

Despite her terrible grades, Valeria was accepted to BCC with an athletic scholarship in hand. Not yet fully committed to a degree, she's focused on truly earning that scholarship and is determined to finally get her name in the record books.

Well, not so much recently. Ever since giving a helping hand in the car accident that first spawned three sets of strange glowing arms, Val has been wrestling with what the hell is going on with her. Despite being mildly panicked by them, she is still tentatively using this ability when alone and especially when getting ready has used a second set of arms to her advantage.

[b][u]Knack:[/u][/b] Keeping in line with Val being a very physical person, her knack has always been extraordinary muscle memory. She can embed any type of task involving muscle memory to heart with only a handful of times doing it, and can get far more benefit than a normal person just from watching another. This is most obvious with her athletic prowess, as can be evident in her strength training and nearly any sport. However, her fine motor skills are also affected, and ever since her mother taught her how she can play a violin no problem, even years out of practice. That being said, don't expect any masterpiece compositions.

[b][u]Gift:[/u][/b] Valeria's gift is very simple, in that she can create extra limbs made up of a faintly glowing yellow energy. This is most commonly shown as extra arms, but she would also be able to make very awkward wings, as an example. The drawback is that despite these limbs being made of energy, it's as though using her own muscles. After the incident that she first spawned extra arms, her actual arms were like dead weights the next day, and bruised for a week after.
