Ruhi "Valentine," "Val" Groeneweg is a young man of mysterious origins who appears first in Soulcalibur: Crystal Embrace. He was found as a baby, surrounded by dead, in a cathedral.

History[]

Background[]

Val was found by Siegfried and Hilde as Schwarzwind removed remaining Malfested from nearby countries. However, when they made it to a small town in Transylvania, everyone was dead. Everyone, except for Val. His mother was easily identified, as he'd been in the dead woman's arms, their scarlet hair and amber eyes matching in colour. She'd been a noble in the town, having traveled from elsewhere. When they went to take Val, they realized his mother was barely alive, her last words being Val's name.

Personality[]

There are few words that can be accurately put together to fully comprehend Val's complicated mind. He's hot-headed, he's levelheaded, he's brash, he's thoughtful, he's confident, he's loud, he's contemplative. He believes himself to genuinely be a figure of righteousness and authority and has felt that way even when he was young. He is not close to many

Weapons[]

Val uses a Sword and Shield, because that is the style he was taught to fight with. He soon mastered using the weapons, having various versions made of them. He preferred a shorter blade and smaller shield, as his style soon grew to be more on the offensive side. Like many people, he soon grew to admire the hero, Sophitia.

Fighting Style[]

Val is aggressive, focusing on hitting the opponent over and over and never letting them get in an attack. Even his guarding stance indicates he is on the offensive. He utilizes his shield as well as his sword, combined with kicks and pommel hits. Val fights with a ruthlessness and vicious authourity that no one is sure from where it comes.

Critical Edge and Finish[]

Critical Finish[]

Val slams his shield into his opponent's abdomen before thrusting his sword into their chest. Keeping his hands on the hilt, Val stares at the opponent as a mysterious, blue energy begins to form around the sword and Val before he rips the blade away with a burst of energy exploding around them both, the opponent being sent flying in slow motion before hitting the ground.
