Valeria Alves

About

Bone fragments dance like ivory chess pieces across her workspace, each meticulously arranged to map forgotten genealogies of death. Where most necromancers seek power, Valeria hunts narrative—treating every skeletal remnant as a cryptic manuscript waiting to reveal its silent, ancestral secrets.

Backstory

Three copper coins clinked against Valeria's palm as the merchant's daughter gasped her final breath, whispering secrets about the family's buried shame that only the dying could know. Word spread through Hollow Creek that young Valeria possessed an unnatural gift—she could hear the confessions of souls departing this world, each death revealing hidden truths the living desperately wanted buried. When her sister Lyra was found murdered with no witnesses, Valeria realized the dead held not just secrets, but justice itself. She began teaching herself to call back those who had crossed over, transforming from reluctant listener to determined seeker, hunting through graveyards and ancient texts until she could command the very spirits who held the answers to Lyra's fate.
