Biograhpy : On October 10th under the breath of a full moon she was named Valerie Alexander, but to her family it wasn’t her first name that mattered but her last.

Valerie was born into a pureblooded family and her parents though she was destined for nothing but greatness, to achieve such they made sure she was no stranger to the world of magic.

At the tender age of two her parents began teaching her about the great wizards that came before her. For countless hours she would sit in her basinet while her parents waved pictures and newspaper clippings in her face. Besides the long lessons there was something else odd about Valerie, at the age of two she had yet to say her first word. Out of desperation her parents tried everything: from charms, healing, and various muggle techniques. After realizing that nothing seemed to work her parents fell into a sea of depression and began thinking about having another child because in their eyes a champion wasn’t worth much if they could not talk.

Valerie remained mute until the age of seven when a bit of playground confrontation caused her to stand up for herself. It was on the cusp of spring and the children were playing outside in the courtyard. As usual Valerie sat on the slide drawing various wildlife in her notebook. When a child by the name of Michael grabbed Valerie’s notebook, took one look at it and threw it in the dirt. Valerie tried all that she could to stay calm but once she had enough she ran over to the boy and yelled at him to apologize. When he refused Valerie felt her body shake and Michael found himself hanging from the school yard gate by his ears. It was the first time in her life that Valerie had displayed any type of aggression and was determined to never let it happen again.

By the time she reached Middle school Valerie’s parents firmly suggested that she try making more friends. They did so by stating that a champion has to do whatever they must to get on top. The following week Valerie spent her time searching for a group of friends to hang out with. Before approaching anyone she weighed the pros and cons and finally set on a group of seemingly happy kids named Melody, Jane, , and Tyler. As the years passed Valerie found the trio to be rather obnoxious and annoying but she decided to keep up the charade to please her parents and on occasion give herself someone to talk to. There were many times in her life when Valerie thought about leaving the magical world behind her, but a small voice in her head kept pushing her to wait.

Family: Parris Alexander Jr (Twin), Parris Alexander (Father), Elizabeth Alexander( Mother).
**Valerie perfers to tell people she is an only child because her and Parris Jr. are not on the best of terms. Parris left their home at a young age and the two have not seen each other since. ( I plan to introduce Parris into Valerie's life later unless there is someone that would like to pick up his character).

Likes: Staying up late, thinking, observing other people, drawing (sketches), listening to music, reading, taking long walks in the forest.

Dislikes: cocky people, people that judge others without actually getting to know them first, and obnoxious people.

Travis cont.

Travis was born into the clan and grew up in a decent home, he was accepted by most of his classmates but never had time to make very many friends. He was one of those special cases who genuinely enjoyed Alchemy. Most kids in the clan learned to use Alchemy like it was a chore to be done with an apathetic annoyance, but Travis had a passion for the mixture of elements, transmutations, dark concoctions and all things Alchemic.

When he graduated from basic schooling he was mentored by his close friend, an old man named Drachmas. He taught him everything he knows and then some before he finally passed away, leaving all his possessions and notes to Travis. He currently runs an apothicary shop moving from town to town occasionally.
