Valerius~

Valerius is a relatively young Consul, always seen in an elegant robe that reveals much of his status. He rarely appears without a glass of wine in his hand. His long black ombre hair is woven into a braid that is draped over his shoulder. He wears a dark beige and white robe with shiny golden ties and lining, while a dark shawl is wrapped around his shoulders. The shawl is adorned with what appears to be a golden ram head, perhaps alluding to some closeness to one of the major arcana, the Hierophant. While generally calm and collected in public, Valerius has proven to be a ruthless conspirator, wishing to take control of Vesuvia from Nadia. When his plans go awry, he is quick to lose his temper. In Nadia's route (Chapter II of Book VI - The Lovers), he seems strangely interested in the apprentice; the expression on his face is described as 'morbid curiosity.'
