- Brighter than the morning star, that is Valandra's aim to be! Her hair is a bright mop of lightning sprouting from her head that falls in a bob-style just above her shoulders and it emits a bit of a glow. It is a platinum blonde color that contrasts with her darker tanned skin, though if closely inspected her skin has a purple tint to it. Runes run up and down her arms and legs like veins in a strange pattern that has to do with her stormsoul genasi heritage. There are small markings under her eyes as well in sharp geometric patterns. Her lips are a deep plum color naturally but she tends to wear gaudy makeup for her act, mostly covering herself in as much glitter as possible.
When she manifests herself with her causticsoul element, her skin becomes greener and her hair appears a wavy blobbish shape that looks as if it might drip. Hardly as glamorous unless you're into a more sea-witchy look and hence she does not use this form much. Her hair turns more silver in color but the markings on her body stay the same shapes and patterns.
Her clothes are very flashy and revealing as she is a little heavy in places but thankfully it just gives her curves. Valandra's favorite outfits involve her signature sequined corset and heels. As she likes to stand out and grab for attention, it would be best to look for help elsewhere if stealth or subtlety is needed. She is a sociable person and generous when she wants to be but also harbors a vain selfish streak. She is highly intelligent from pouring over magical books and a couple of her own adventures after leaving her home in the Maelstorm but sometimes lacks common sense. Flattery will get you everywhere.

It's been a busy year for Valandra after touring down south for three months trying to drum up some publicity for her branch of the Traveling Troupe. She harassed Zanster into scoring her a few gigs there and attempted a one-woman DANCE&DAZZLE show that eventually fell apart as she ran herself into the ground with exhaustion trying to do everything herself. Retreating back to the tavern, she spent a great deal of time drinking away her frustration over her failure until she'd recovered enough to go bother the great wizard Dwayne for some tricks and advice. Rumors are she is cooking up another troublesome 'great act' but she's not letting any secrets slip about it just yet!
She also blew a bunch of gold at the black market for some strange items, most of which turned out to be useless junk. However, she did manage to score herself a set of cool gypsy veils complete with stars painted on them and has been looking for another dancer to try a double act with.
