1891 | Valentin discovers a new addiction in reading Witch Weekly with all its mostly local drama and promptly subscribes.

Personality: Passionate. Creative. Romantic. Imaginative. Dramatic. Fickle. Falls passionately in and out of love quickly. Tends to have almost no secrets from his siblings so unfortunately for them, they tend to be more aware than they probably want to be about his romantic adventures - even when it's with a man. A lover, not a fighter. But would probably kill for his siblings which wouldn't go well but his heart is in the right place. Capable of being seductive. Flirtatious. Irresponsible. Out of touch with social etiquette and propriety in general.
