Name:Valour Valentine also known as 'Val'
Age: Early 30's
Height: 5'5"
Weight:: 56-57kgs
Nationality: American (Old New York)
Appearance:
Defining physical characteristics: Dark, troubled eyes hide behind her dust filter mask with black kohl smudged as eyeliner to reduce the glare on the road. Her smile is neither comforting or cheerful but rather audacious and cheeky. A number of rarely seen tattoos cover her body in places while sections of her arm and back skin is marred by the mottled colours of burn scarring, a result of high speed accident a few years back. Usual choice of clothing include fire resistant racing suits, flat boots and gloves.
Fighting Style: Aggressive and fast- a mix of techniques brought from a few disciplines- Mainly Aikido for speed, fluidity and deflection. Relies heavily of her reflexes and avoiding close combat (due to her size most opponents have a strength advantage so key is not to let them get close enough to get ahold of her.) Not afraid of using her environment to gain the upper hand.
Specific Skill: Bartering/Gambling
Bio:
Fortune favours the brave
"Oh hun, whatchya wanna know? I'm one of the best racers here on the East Coast.. that should say it all. Been racing since I could reach go-kart pedals and ain't nothin here I can't drive either. Wanna have a run?" winks cheekily "Nah I didn't think so, little too much for you to handle eh, anyway I gotta be runnin, heard some mutherfucker down in Florida is offering Fifty G's to run a supply route. Easy cash hun, easy cash"
Valour is in way too deep, she placed a few too many substantial bets that never payed off. They say gambling is only an addiction if your loosening. Well Val lost and now owes the "Big Boss" of NYC a hefty sum of credits. Through a few contacts she heard of this Mercer guy needing escorts for his gig, sure she could stay in the city running races and watching the cash flow trickle in but BB's boys were breathing down her neck and it would be safer to just get outta dodge. The fifty thousand credits he offered would cover half of what she owe, give her a little room to move and if she could stand to make a little extra off the suckers running the job with her... Well... Perfect.
Theme Song: 'Shoot To Thrill' - AC/DC
Name: Banshee III
Appearance:
Firepower:3
Grip: 17
Frame: 2
Acceleration:20
Top Speed:13
Flavour Text:
The Banshee is a fast skirmish vehicle. Lightweight, manoeuvrable with and extremely quick acceleration and top speed. It excels in the streets of the abandoned cities, dodging and screaming around the tight turning and drifting corners that the city offers. Perfect choice for street racers and those who need a responsive quick vehicle. But with all its benefits comes those unsavoury drawbacks- these include a diminished armouring leaving it susceptible to ram damage and road wear & tear. Also to keep the vehicle light weight leaves it only able to carry a small selection of equipment, fitted with only driver and navigator seats and a smaller fuel tank leaving the driver on the constant prowl for fuel.
The Rotary engine's distinctive 'screaming' has given the off-roader to be called a Banshee as it's usually the last sound that those unlucky few hear before they die.
Valour acquired the Banshee a few years ago after wining a local off-road night race. The unskilled driver at the time neglected to navigate 'Gallows Gap' resulting in his death and Val claiming victory and the remains of the buggy. Banshee II was hurriedly built but then just as quickly written off by a disgruntled client claiming Valour had cheated him out of a few thousand credits (sucker didn't read the fine print). The current Banshee has been improved with a 13B Turbo Rotary engine (previous 12A) and lives true to the scream of a Banshee.
