Valerie Alice Bond is a 16 year old girl living in London in 1967. She is adopted and does not know who her birth parents are. Though she is naturally curious to find out their identities, she's not, exactly, in a rush to look for them. She enjoys her life with her adoptive parents and is focusing on the moment, on being a teenager and having fun, before she has to grow up. Maybe then, when she's out in the real world, she'll look for her parents. But not now.
Valerie is athletic and skilled with foreign languages, has a very vivacious personality despite expressing herself in a very reserved manner. She has a horrible temper. Everyone's sure she got it from her birth parents, whoever they may be, because her adoptive parents are the most nonviolent, benevolent people on the planet. Valerie loves them, really, but they can be a little...dull, sometimes.
Like many teens, she has an obsession. His name is James Bond. She's seen all the movies, she's read all the books, and she fancies herself a Bond girl thanks to her last name. On this subject she is her most obnoxious.
