You could call it a hazel color, but Valerie prefers to say brown. (For some she has a weird obsession with being compared to one of those honey bear honey bottles and pooh the bear? I'm not quite sure lmao. Sunflowers and sunsets too, anything with a warm golden vibe really.) Rosy, light skin that turns especially pink in the cold around her nose, cheeks, and ears. Skinny, and she gets a lot of comments about this so she's somewhat self-conscious about her triangle body figure, but that doesn't really stop her from dressing the way she wants. Her closet is full of vibrant clothes, from revealing crop tops to baggy clothing, from yellow and orange pastel colors all the way to monotone shades. Her daily outfits really depend on her mood. Although she's could totally afford most clothing, Valerie is a big fan of thrifting. Long cinnamon brown hair that shows as copper in the sun. Sometimes her hair naturally curls at the ends, but most of the time, it's silky, smooth, and straight. Her usual accessories are multiple bracelets on one hand and dangly or small earrings. Her signature item is a teddy bear pendant chain necklace, which is usually hidden beneath whatever she's wearing but she does treasure it since it was gifted to her by her brother on her 16h birthday. 5'4 Backstory: None? I mean, nothing much tragic. Valerie has grown up with very loving and easy-going, accepting parents in a middle class family. Valerie also has an older brother, older by 2 years, who's pretty frustrating, but she knows that his teasing and their bickering is just out of familial love. From a quick overview, you would assume she has the perfect life that many would kill for, but it's not exactly that simple. Valerie tends to always attract the depressed kids, perhaps due to her sunny personality, and somehow she always ends up as their therapist friend. It affects her a lot, being the peoples person she is. Even her closest friends disregard her complaints and feel inferior to her, claiming that she should be happy because she has such a good life. Her dad is probably her closest friend. As for dating, Valerie's openly queer and has dated a couple of people. Out of those relationships, maybe 2 have ended poorly, either because the other person cheated or because they found her too clingy. But the rest ended on a good note, so she's friends with a lot of her exes. I don't know what else to say: Valerie's just a normal person living a happy life, while having her fair share of worries and flaws. Personality: (ESFP) An outgoing, adventurous girl for sure. Let me explain it like this: as I said before, Valerie's a sunny girl with an optimistic, "go with the flow" mindset. But this also means she's a risk-taker that doesn't think much before doing something. Valerie also a quickly moving person, meaning she dismisses things easily, but this means she accidently might leave important things or people behind because they don't match her pacing. A peoples person, meaning she loves socializing and exciting things, buttt this means she easily gets bored and has a short attention span. With quiet people, Valerie accidently might cut them off or shrug off their words because it simply doesn't interest her enough. This may make her sound like a person that's hard to get along with, but most of her friends love that she's spontaneous and so fun to be around that they ignore her flaws.
