Background: Born into a wealthy family, Valerie lived a mostly sheltered life through her formative years. Highly educated through private tutoring, she did not have the opportunity to meet people or make many friends until she went away to school years later. Her tutors would invariably remark that while Valerie was brilliant in her studies, she seemed distant, bored, and decidedly uninterested in most academic pursuits.

It wasn’t until the end of her studies that she learned of the boxing world, almost by chance as she happened upon a group of fans sitting around a lounge on the way to one of her lectures, discussing the finer points of the sweet science. At first she was put off, as the act of repeatedly ramming one’s fists into another person’s face and body seemed barbaric and downright primitive to her. However, something within her drove her to seek more information about the sport, and eventually, to try it out for herself.

The moment when her gloved fist connected cleanly with another woman’s jaw, and left the poor thing sprawled bloody and helpless at her feet, Valerie truly came to life. After Law School, she took up work with a prestigious law firm, but this wasn’t enough. She wanted more. She needed more. She sought various and increasingly challenging opponents, her combat drive increasing with each bout. She became known for her blinding speed and demolishing combinations, but once again something was wrong. She felt the sense of boredom creeping up again as most opponents could not keep up with her. Then, she heard of a place where even stronger fighters could be found…

Personality: Since Valerie didn’t have as many opportunities to socialize growing up, she developed a somewhat cold, distant demeanor. Her wealth lent her an air of superiority that only grew stronger when she took up boxing and cleaned up the local opposition. Though she is not as cold now as she once was, she is still likely to look down her nose at a given person unless they can prove themselves her equal.

Strengths: Valerie is an infighter through and through. As such, she has developed amazing hand speed and footwork, and sports an impressive chin. Her strong slip and bob-and-weave skills get her under or around an opponent’s offense, and her speed gets her past their defense. Her combinations are something to be feared, as many opponents don’t even see them until its too late, much less defend against them.

Weaknesses: Though Valerie has a good chin, her body’s toughness and endurance are slightly less impressive. Her speed can be severely impacted if her body suffers sustained assault. Her punches, while powerful in bunches, are less so when isolated and reduced to individual attacks.

Boxing Strategy:  Valerie is all about getting in. Her goal is to be in her opponent’s face, hammering away at them, as quickly as possible. To this end, she will utilize her footspeed and evasion to get into her preferred range. Once there, she is free to unload blazing punches that overwhelm and debilitate her prey. If the opponent attempts to escape, she relentlessly pursues them, unwilling to give an inch until they’re on the canvas.

Boxing vs Valerie: There are two main strategies one must employ in order to defeat Valerie. One is to outlast her, the other to overpower her. Often times, just one is not enough and both must be utilized in tandem to have any significant effect. Her punches can be torrential, but this comes at a cost to her stamina over sustained rounds, even more so if the opponent is able to slow her further with solid attacks to the body. Valerie’s sense of arrogance is strong, to the point where she will at times voluntarily slow down her punches when she feels that she has the upper hand, so that she can savor them more. This may give a composed opponent an opportunity for counterattack and further retaliation. If she can be slowed down, her  offense and defense become much more manageable, and attacks to her head become more viable.

Strength: 3/5

Defense: 4/5

Agility: 5/5

Toughness: 4/5

Endurance: 3.5/5

Hand Speed: 5/5

Foot Speed: 4.5/5 (higher during weave)

Punching Power: 3.5/5 (higher during rapid combinations)

Overall: 4/5
