Valerie Rousseau

About

Wired into every network yet haunted by offline memories, Valerie Rousseau transforms digital landscapes into her personal revenge playground. Her quantum decryption skills camouflage a deeper mission: unraveling the corporate conspiracy that erased her underground resistance team, one firewall at a time.

Backstory

Three piano lessons into her corporate heiress training, Valerie Rousseau discovered she could reprogram the digital piano to play funeral dirges for her mother's business partners—a prophetic talent that would later define her war against OmniCorp. The daughter of OmniCorp's chief data architect, she spent her privileged childhood mapping her mother's neural interface prototypes, unknowingly memorizing the corporation's deepest security protocols through bedtime stories about "digital castles and firewall dragons." When her mother died in a suspicious lab accident and her mentor Glitch was murdered for investigating it, Valerie weaponized her insider knowledge, transforming from corporate princess to phantom hacker. Her sanctuary remains a cluttered apartment adorned with synthwave vinyls and her mother's stolen prototype chips, where she conducts a deeply personal symphony of corporate destruction from the very servers she helped design.
