A cinematic high-fantasy portrait of Valeria Varenne at age 26, before the fall of House Varenne, when she was still the designated heir to an old matriarchal merchant dynasty in the wealthy Mediterranean-inspired port city of Corenza. Valeria is a beautiful young Aasimar woman with fair skin, refined harmonious features, defined cheekbones, a straight elegant nose, striking silver-gray eyes, and long golden-brown hair with lighter natural highlights, worn in an elegant half-up, half-down style. Her celestial heritage is subtle rather than overt, she looks mostly human, with only an unusual clarity and quiet radiance to her appearance, no visible wings. She has a slender, athletic build and carries herself with effortless confidence, perfect posture, and the controlled grace of someone raised from childhood to become the next matriarch of a powerful house. She is not delicate or ornamental, beneath the aristocratic refinement is the balance and physical discipline of an accomplished fencer. Valeria wears luxurious but tasteful noble clothing in muted dark teal, ivory, silver and restrained gold. A loose, elegant blouse of fine lightweight fabric is fitted at the waist beneath a beautifully tailored teal waistcoat, with fitted trousers and high fine leather boots with a modest heel. The fabrics and craftsmanship are expensive without being gaudy. Delicate silver and gold embroidery suggests wind, sea currents and maritime motifs appropriate to an old trading family. Around her neck is a fine silver chain with an elegant silver pendant containing a polished sea-blue gemstone. A refined brooch shaped like a spiraling current of wind around a small star is pinned to her clothing. The setting is an elegant merchant-aristocratic mansion in Corenza, with tall windows, carved stone, polished wood, maps, ledgers and subtle signs of immense mercantile wealth. Through the windows, hints of a great harbor and distant masts can be seen. Valeria should feel intelligent, composed, warm beneath her formality, and entirely believable as a woman who expects one day to inherit the house around her.
