Holidays
Day of Triumph. 25th of October, a dedicated holiday to Valentina's victory over the weremen horde. The holiday itself consists of a meal, any meal really, that is only allowed to have meat on it, along with any beverage. Any meat would do, but people usually tend to eat more bovines and caprines.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
She was fit. Her body shape is perfect for fighting.
Body Features
Her skin was pale white
Specialized Equipment
Valentina's arms and armor aren't exactly unique but are masterfully crafted by blacksmiths hired by her from abroad.
Mental characteristics
Education
Educated by the best of the best, Valentina grew to be a cunning noble. By her 15s she had amassed enough money to contract a powerful mercenary company to serve as her body guard, their captain teaching her the art of combat.
Accomplishments & Achievements
The princess was not supposed to be elected as the queen, rather one of her rivals had a sizable advantage, making her the second in the race. However, cunning as she was, she ordered the assassination of her powerful rival in one day, and in the next she was the first at the race... now she needed to stay alive and fend off her other rivals' assassination attempts... she did that masterfully for a sizable amount of time.
Failures & Embarrassments
She did win the election and became queen. She did stall the weremen invasion upon her lands... however, she once, and only once allowed herself to rest... And on that day she was murdered by one of her rivals who's, strangely enough, household was actually avoided by the weremen invasion, who encircled around it.
Intellectual Characteristics
She was not very charismatic, rather preferring to be ruthless when negotiating. However, she was extremely smart and cunning.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
At first, her objective was to maintain the free cities united as one war machine that moved against the great divine horde. While the situation stabilized her objective now shifted to take control or destroy all of the other noble houses... sadly for her she was assassinated before she could complete such objective.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Her charisma was certainly lacking, but she was able to use her ruthlessness to great effect.
Virtues & Personality perks
She was extremely patient, never acting until the exact right time. However, when said time came, she was known to act so quickly that her enemies did not realize what was happening nor who was attacking until it was too late.
Vices & Personality flaws
At times, she was too ruthless. That earned her the nickname Bloodied Queen when she enacted an ambush against one of her rivals' trading caravans. Looking to proliferate fear into any and all traders who did business with her rivals she ordered her soldiers to slaughter every single guard of the caravan, leaving only the civilians. The ruthless princes then impaled the leader of the caravan with her sword, bringing it up higher than her head, spilling blood into her hair. The survivors fled in fear, later spreading the word of the Bloodied Queen.
Hygiene
It is said that around Valentina there was always the smell of exotic perfumes... Never the same twice.
Social
Family Ties
She had a... special connection to some of her cousins, keeping them around as much as possible. That lead to rumors of incest, but she never cared too much about that, and neither did she care about most of her family.
Religious Views
She cared nought about gods, much preferring to solve problems the old fashioned way... instead of vague and unreliable rituals and prophecies.
Mannerisms
She made a point to always speak a little louder than anybody else around her...
Speech
She used the word "nought" way more than her noble compatriots... and than anybody else really.
Relationships
History
The prince and the princess had a long history of assassination attempts, political maneuvering and mischief. It was never any personal problems that lead to such cunning rivalry between the two of them, and in other circumstances the two might even have turned into close friends... or even closer than that.

The queen was extremely rich, as was normal to the noble families.
