#Valerie Esono

[velvets-stuff]

one for each of the ocs you tagged ✨✨✨

Valerie Esono: • She has her father's ashes in her locket, so the locket is very important to her (obviously she doesn't have all the ashes there, just a part, the urn with the ashes is in her mother's house) • Her first crush was Shakira and her first girlfriend was a Chilean girl in sixth grade, they only lasted a month together. Dominik Doria: • Once he was returning home after a dinner with some business partners and at the door of his house there was a opossum, Dominik looked at it, the opossum looked at him, the possum growled at him, and that's how Dominik met his pet opossum "Loki". • In his meetings with the other villains he doesn't usually talk much, he only talks when he thinks it's convenient for him.

Elliott: • When he is not training or taking care of another matter in his camp he is dissociating, surprisingly he dissociates a lot and many times, reaching the point where it's not very healthy, people do not usually interrupt him when he is dissociating since they do not know if he would get angry, so They prefer not to risk. • Nobody knows exactly why he is a hunter.

Valerie!✨

Valerie, as I said before, has an older brother named Gabriel and two younger siblings, a girl named Luciana and a boy named Alejandro.

The reason Valerie ended up cutting contact with her older brother was because, months later, due to the stress of becoming the mainstay of their family after the death of their father, he started hanging out and getting involved with dangerous people (like bullies, criminals and stuff) and having unhealthy habits (like drinking, smoking, stealing, gambling), somethimes ending up bringing those problems to their house and they ended up fighting, which is why Valerie literally kick out her older brother and cutting off contact with him.

Despite that, Valerie still loves her older brother, she understands that the situation was not easy and that he was not in the best position emotionally and mentally, but she was not going to allow this new version of him to end up hurting her mother and younger siblings.

She is the type of person who, when sees a gringe scene in a movie or series, has to pause to process that gringe scene, or she would simply end up skipping that scene.

She is not a member of the Kratt team, Valerie tends to work on her own but she is quite close to the brothers, so she accompanies them and helps them on adventures, mainly if they are located in high places like mountains.

Girl does not approve of disrespect in her house 💀, if she hears or sees you being rude she will give you the most nasty look she has, the classic "don't talk to me in that tone", and believe me, she can and she will do it .

Valerie is not officially part of the Kratt team, but she appreciates them as good friends and more than once she has been involved in their adventures, in which she can be very funny with the brothers or even scold them when their love for animals or their stubbornness lead them to dangerous or unwanted situations. Although she has no problem getting into a conflict, she prefers not to intervene or start one if she does not see it as necessary or if she is simply not involved, even going so far as to advocate for peace. Throughout the program, Valerie's character, her origins, tastes, hobbies and relationships are known more.

Valerie is a good friend and companion and is very careful and kind to animals. It is not known exactly if she has had any interaction with the Wild Kratts Kids, but since she has three younger siblings and she is a teacher it is easy to speculate that she would get along well with children.

ya me dio curiosidad, ¿Cuál fue la inspiración para los nombres de tus OCs? 👀

Buena pregunta Kazzy, buena pregunta 😉 • El nombre de Valerie viene de una chica que conoci en el colegio, no es tan especial, fuimos amigas durante un tiempo, simplemente me gusto su nombre. Su apellido, Esono, es de origen ecuatoguineano, pais que tenia contemplado como el lugar de nacimiento y crianza de su padre. • Con Dominik fue mas sencillo, simplemente busque nombres alemanes o de origen aleman, y ese fue el que mas me gusto. Su apellido, Doria, fue elegido pensando en este detalle de la serie y es que casi todos los villanos tiene iniciales del nombre y apellido identicas, "Donita Donata", "Gaston Gourmand" y "Paisley Paver" (siendo Zach la unica excepcion 👀), y decidi seguir con esa "tradicion", su apellido igualmente lo busque en google. • Realmente no recuerdo como fue que elegi el nombre de Elliott, definitivamente queria que su nombre fuese de alguna forma imponente o que al escucharlo no pensaras en algun sujeto de 20 o menos, pero no se que me hizo especificamente elegir ese nombre, quizas solo se me ocurrio. • Victor fue elegido por la misma razon que Dominik (el detallito de las iniciales con los villanos), como las iniciales de Zach no son las mismas de su apellido le di esa caracteristica a Victor, la razon por la que especificamente el nombre es Victor es por el personaje de Victor Frankenstein del libro "Frankenstein". Su segundo nombre, Taylor, iba a ser el nombre para otro oc, pero como al final no lo use y me termino gustando se lo di a Victor como segundo nombre. • Con Rudy queria darle un nombre latino y me habia acordado del personaje Rudy de Call Of Duty, igualmente recordando que el nombre real del personaje era Rodolfo, y como me gusto el apodo Rudy le termine dando ambos, nombre y apodo, al fanchild de Martin y Aviva. • Maxine, al ser muy similar a Martin, queria darle un nombre con sus iniciales, y como me habia gustado el nombre de la prota de X (una pelicula slasher), que igualmente se llama Maxine, se lo di. MENCIONES HONORIFICAS: • Los hermanos mayores de Dominik, Caín y Abel, son claras referencias a los personajes biblicos de mismos nombres, y creo que es bastante claro que el final/climax de su historia es una fuerte referencia a la historia de Caín y Abel.

can you tell me 5 random/fun facts about your oc Valerie Esono? :3c

Of course! (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠)

Her mother is a seamstress and her (deceased) father was a fisherman.

They don't scare her, but the clowns make she quite uncomfortable.

Valerie stutters from time to time when she talks, especially when she talks fast, so it's normal for others to ask her to repeat what she said because they don't understand.

She herself had to throw her older brother out of the house.

She doesn't know it, but Zach is somewhat afraid of Valerie, especially since she is quite tall and strong for a woman.
