Valerie

"I KNOW! IT'S WEIRD! Anyways! I was hoping you didn't get too far ahead of me. I wanted us to go together."

Valerie the Elusive Mage

Valerie - or Val for short - is the Protagonist's childhood friend, a playable character in Adventure High, as well as the first member to join your party during a New Game. She's also the worst girl in the entire game.

Val is initially the only way for the player to deal damage as the Protagonist lacks damaging spells. Upon obtaining her magic, she describes it as "being able to use some elemental magic".

She seems to be quite selfish in regards towards the Protagonist, to the point she'll get jealous - or flat out mad - if the Protagonist remarks that s/he wishes to make some new friends.

Despite this, she'll give up her own magic in order to help the Protagonist gain magic as she can't stand to see the Protagonist's one dream go up in smoke. However, she still remarks that she considers herself a failure due to being able to mess up when she's told to transform Ms. Rack into a bimbo.

During the Bimbo World NG+, she tells Molly to wait for them in town. Once she gives magic to the Protagonist again, Molly will ask what happened. Val then instantly defends herself by saying "it's something only a close friend could solve". The Protagonist won't comment on her actions, possibly due to being overwhelmed by the fact that s/he now can use magic.

Molly gets somewhat hurt by this remark but says nothing more about it, though she sticks with the Protagonist.

During the Mysterious Book NG+, if you tag with Julia instead of Val, upon coming back to the school, Val will give magic to the Protagonist. Julia will remark that both the Protagonist's and Val's gift has changed, though she has no idea how it could have happened. She then heads back to the Library.

Party Role: Elemental Damage

Val is one of two characters with eight spells in the Destructive tree, allowing her to use a variety of heavy-hitting elemental spells. Like Sarah, she has a broad range of elemental types but unlike Sarah, she unlocks those simply by being proficient enough in the Destructive school.

In terms of physical magic, she has Grass Knuckles, which deals a decent amount of damage for a somewhat low cost, but her damage output from the physical school is highly lacking compared to her destructive school.

She also has a hidden spell called "Erase," which is the heaviest hitting spell in the game. The only actual downside is that it costs a whooping 250 Stamina to cast, but it's easily dealt with by giving her the Endurance upgrade, which increases her Stamina by 85, covering a third the cost.

Valerie Stars In...

Valerie plays a major role in the following routes:

Heroic route, where she tries to help the Protagonist to defeat Drape.
Bimbo World Route, in which she helps the Protagonist turn the school (and presumably the town) into bimbos.
- Bimbo's Gone Wild, in which she tricks Dan into making her and Ms. Rack into permanent bimbos. She seems to be spending her time transforming others into bimbos, too...
- This is a spin-off of the Bimbo World route.
Redemption route, being the first person to be freed from the Protagonist's control. She's also the only one who will automatically willingly join the Protagonist once s/he has started freeing slaves again.

Enslaving Val

The very first chance you have to do so is right at the start of the game. Simply choose to use your spell on her three times, then choose to keep her like that. She's now your slave.

Another chance is in the school hallway. Cast Confuse followed by Suppression and she'll become your slave.

One thing you can do is, during the scene in the streets where she complains about leg warmers being bought, simply cast Grapple and she'll become your slave after a short scene.

You can also do so by having Sarah enslaved and in her Eager to Please form. Grab the third floor note and you can either start Val's route to become a willing slave, or you can just flatout enslave her like that.

At the end of her willing slave route, siding with Sarah also causes you to enslave Val.

A more evil way of doing that is on the Heroic Route, assuming you had no other slaves. After defeating the boss in her mind, cast Suppression on her and she'll count as your slave.

If you're hellbent on getting all of the slaves, all you have to is to start the Redemption route. Enslave Dr. Tiff and, when speaking to Val, simply enslave her in the hallway again by casting Confuse. After taking her to your room, you can just let the scene play out, and she is Suppressed again.

If you don't want to enslave her like that, if you enslaved Dr. Tiff using Ms. Rack, you can speak to Dr. Tiff - talk to her about fetishes, then and ask her to elaborate. Next, go to Ms. Rack's room and speak to her. Ms. Rack will say that she's sad that Val is no longer the Protagonist's slave if you speak about Val. Agree to let Ms. Rack help you enslave Val again, then head home for a scene.

Willing Slave Valerie

Valerie is one of the characters in the game that you can make into a willing slave.

Requirements

The following are the requirements to make Val into your willing slave or submissive lover.

Val needs to be level 10 or above.
The Protagonist must have enslaved Sarah (does not work with Doll Sarah).
Val needs 50 or more affection.
Ability to see your slaves topless in the library (either by enslaving Julia or giving her one note).
The Flirt spell (requires 110 Support Proficiency).
You can NOT be dating her, nor can she be affected by you in any way (she cannot be a slave or Charmed by you).

To get Val as a willing slave, you need to enslave Sarah using any means you please.

Change Sarah to her Eager to Please form and head to the third floor of the dungeon. Grab the Secret Note, which causes a scene to play out. During it, tell Val the truth and head back to school.

Next, you need access to seeing your slaves topless in the library. This is easiest done by grabbing the third floor note and then simply enslaving Julia.

Speak to Sarah and watch the scene. When Val shows up, cast Flirt on her and then head to the lake. A fairly lengthy scene plays out, in which you can't really do anything. Next, head to the Item Shop and confront Val about her behavior.

Head on back home assuming all criteria are fulfilled. Change Sarah to her normal personality and a scene plays out in which she brings Val back. Side with Val and she is now your willing slave and/or submissive lover.

Siding with Sarah, meanwhile, makes all your work up to that point moot, as she becomes a regular slave instead.

Honey, I shrunk my childhood friend!

If the Protagonist has access to the Shrink and Transform spells, it's possible to transform into Val either in the school or in the streets. Doing so lets you walk around as Val for a while, but you retain the Protagonist's spell list.

If access to the Heroic Route has not been shut out, meaning you haven't enslaved people - yet - you can speak to Drape in his classroom after reaching the fourth floor of the dungeon, causing a bad ending to play out.

Honey, I shrunk my childhood friend... again!

After reverting Val back to her original form, it's possible to cast Transform on her from the menu again. If Val has 40 or more affection, it's possible to cast Flirt on her for a CG, in which the Protagonist (now Val) is hugging Val (real Val). The real Val seems to enjoy it, at the very least.

Flirting with Val

If you have access to the Flirt Spell is possible to flirt with her and get a few new lines of dialogue as well as several affection boosts.

During your first conversation in the hallway (when she asks if you don't mind her hanging out with you), at any time during the conversation.
During the scene in the streets where she's crying about the leg warmers, after she mentions said leg warmers.
- When this encounter begins cast confuse on her to give an affection boost.

Dating Val

To date Val, you need access to the Flirt spell.

Once you have it and Val is level eight or above, speak to her in the streets the second time - the first time is the one about the leg warmers, the second time is about fighting monsters in the dungeon.

If she's below level 8, she will say "fighting monsters still isn't really [her] thing". If she's level 8 or above, she will say that it's not too bad with [the Protagonist] there. Cast Flirt on her on that line and then head home.

During the scene in the bedroom, you're given two options: "going out" or "hanging out". Choosing the latter causes the date to end in failure and Val hints at being in love with the Protagonist.

Choosing the former lets you either stay in the room, go to the monster ranch or to the lake. Choose any of the options, though the monster ranch causes her to get a drop in affection.

Regardless of route you chose, you're now dating her.

Val of the Roses

After reaching the eighth floor of the dungeon while Val has 35 or more affection, heading to the Protagonist's room causes a scene to play out, in which Val is lying naked on the bed with her eyes running and having a stuffed nose. The Protagonist asks if she's alright, to which she says she's not sure what's wrong. The Protagonist then asks if she's allergic to roses, which causes her to admit that she's not sure - she never really got into contact with them before.

The Protagonist can either cast Conversion: Speed on her to help her feel better, scold her for making a mess or simply tell her to take a nap while the Protagonist cleans it up. In the first case, Val thanks and leaves, saying she'll have to take a raincheck on the romance. If you scold her, she gets sad and if you tell her to rest, she just apologizes and thanks the Protagonist.

An Actual Date

Rosa and Val kisses (you can see the Dan x Val on the date transcript page).

The next scene has multiple different outcomes but basically boils down to speaking to Val in the living room of the Protagonist's house. There, depending on if you have fixed Ashley or not, a variety of routes plays out.

Ashley is still missing

The Protagonist remarks having had nothing to eat but casserole for ages. Val, surprised, asks "Casserole?" and the Protagonist explains after his/her mother left, she made a bunch of casserole for the Protagonist. Val suggests they go out for dinner, allowing the Protagonist to either disagree, saying s/he doesn't like to waste food which upsets Val a little or agree to go to the restaurant.

If the Protagonist agrees to go to the restaurant, a lengthy scene plays out in which Val asks what the Protagonist plans on doing in the future. If the Protagonist says s/he plans on exploring, Val gets slightly upset about this and remarks that it's a common thing for people to do.

If the Protagonist says s/he'll probably patrol the town, Val remarks she won't have any issue staying home and cooking dinner and fixing the house, but she quickly corrects herself, saying she shouldn't think that far ahead.

A scene plays out in which Val kisses the Protagonist regardless and Val remarks that [the Protagonist] is the best thing that ever happened to [her].

Ashley ate the casserole

If Ashley is in any non-Mindless personality, Val asks if the Protagonist have had anything to eat. The Protagonist remarks that SOMEONE ate all of the casserole, so... No. S/He haven't.

Ashley appears at this point and explains she didn't have anything but slime to eat for a full year. Val decides to bring Ashley with them to the restaurant - the Protagonist isn't really given an option in this case.

Heading to the restaurant, Ashley decides to leave them alone so they can have dinner in peace. If Ashley is in her Berserker self for this scene, she speaks normally, causing Val to ask what happened. The Protagonist says s/he uses his/her magic on Ashley to help her be more intelligent, at the very least in public.

Next, a lengthy scene plays out in which Val asks what the Protagonist plans on doing in the future. If the Protagonist says s/he plans on exploring, Val gets slightly upset about this and remarks that it's a common thing for people to do.

If the Protagonist says s/he'll probably patrol the town, Val remarks she won't have any issue staying home and cooking dinner and fixing the house, but she quickly corrects herself, saying she shouldn't think that far ahead.

A scene plays out in which Val kisses the Protagonist regardless and Val remarks that [the Protagonist] is the best thing that ever happened to [her].

Val's new Leggings

After the previous encounter, Val asks the Protagonist to tag with her to the shop. If the Protagonist turns her down, she gets sad and the scene ends.

If the Protagonist instead tags along, there's a short scene in which Val tries on a pair of black leggings, showing visible dislike in them. If the Protagonist still insists on them looking good, she says she knows it's just to try and cheer her up. If the Protagonist agrees they don't suit her, she thanks the Protagonist for being honest.

Recruitment

Val joins the Protagonist's party by default at the start of the game.

Saving Val's Mind

During the Heroic Plotline, the Protagonist has to enter Val's Mind to save her from Drape.

If Val tags along when saving Sarah's Mind and you use Boost on Sarah, Val will get pissed that Sarah's body gets an improvement, but not hers, further evidencing her jealousy.

Note that if you use Boost on Val at this point, you can no longer enslave her down the line. The reason for this is because you enhanced her mind to resist the ability to be controlled again.

Bimbo World New Game +

During this New Game+, the Protagonist runs into Val, who is blonde and has larger boobs - meaning she is very much so a bimbo. If Sarah is picked during class, Val will remark that they're teamed up "again". When the Protagonist asks what she means by "again," she quickly says that she meant that it's like usual and suggests they check out the Sigil.

If Molly is picked, Val will drop one level of affection and, upon finding out that the Protagonist is done with his/her initial run into the dungeon, she'll ask what s/he got as magic. When she finds out that the Protagonist didn't get any, she asks Molly to wait and brings the Protagonist with her to Ms. Rack's room.

In secret, Val gives the Protagonist magic and they head back into the hallway and meet with Molly. When Molly asks if everything is fine, Val claims that "it was something only a close friend could solve," causing Molly to get visibly hurt.

If you continue down the Bimbo World route as Dan while on the Bimbo World route, you can permanently make Val and Ms. Rack into bimbos, without being able to change them to other forms again.

Mysterious Book New Game +

During this New Game+, the Protagonist runs into Val as if it was a normal New Game. However, the Protagonist remarks that it feels like this has happened once before. The Protagonist is confused about it but doesn't say anything more about it.

In class, the Protagonist can either team with Val, try to team up with Sarah - who will refuse as she's tagging with Cassandra - or with Julia, who already has magic. If Val isn't picked, she'll drop one level of affection.

Once back from the dungeon, Val will ask what magic the Protagonist got. When she finds out s/he didn't get any, she asks Julia to wait, who agrees.

Val brings the Protagonist with her to Ms. Rack's room and gives him/her magic in secret. Once done, they head out and speak to Julia again, who is surprised to see that both of their gifts has changed. She requests to speak with the Protagonist in private in the library later.

Faculty Control Ending

Val does not provide testimony in the normal sense. She does it depending on how much Trust she has. Even if you did all the good things for her, she can still provide negative testimony.

At the end of the Faculty Control Path, Jane will suggest that now that you have many slaves you should confront Drape, since with their combined power you'll be able to defeat him and thus end the threat he poses to you. However, regardless of how many slaves you have or how powerful they are, Drape will still overpower you.

A scene will play where he will show you what they really think of what you did to them as a way of making you feel bad before "correcting things", meaning turning you all into his mindless puppets. Val will show up near the end of the scene regardless if she's your slave or not, and reveal she was the one that gave you your powers. If her trust is high enough she'll lend you her reality bending powers once more to save you from Drape, leading to a New Game+.

The simplest way to get Val to trust you enough is by charming her while in her mind (a charmed Val will always have unshakable trust in you and thus will always take your side).

If you'd prefer to enslave Val rather than charming her, go with her to the first floor (during the intro sequence); choose "let's be careful" for a boost in trust, then choose "Give her a break" when testing your magic on her (choosing to push further gives you a drop in trust). This should give you enough trust to succeed in achieving the ending as long as you don't screw up in other conversations with her.

Val requires a total of 30 Trust in order to trust the Protagonist enough to help out, one final time.

The various people gives various amount of Trust, most giving or reducing by 1 or 2 while Ms. Rack's testimony is 5.

Completing this ending unlocks her Erase spell if you choose to start a NG+.

If you see this line, congratulations. Val has enough Trust for you to complete the game with the Faculty Control ending.

Trivia

She's one of only six characters to have a confirmed first and last name in the game.
Her real magic is to change reality, but she gives this power to the Protagonist, saying that it's too tempting for her to keep for herself.
- It's presumed that's the reason that the Demoman monster spawns on the first floor - Val simply created it to give the Protagonist a chance to try out his/her magic.
As of version 0.42, she no longer explains how to save the game. Instead, ??? does.
Failing to enslave Val in the hallway unlocks a new enemy in her Mind.
Her favorite color is purple.
She's allergic to roses, something she was unaware of as she had never really come in contact with them before. She finds out about this by dating the Protagonist.
- Even if you dated her and started the Bimbo World route, she'll remain unaware that she's allergic to roses. Whether this is an oversight or she simply didn't retain those memories from the previous timeline is unknown.
She's the first character to fall under Drape's control. While under his control, she wears identical clothes to his but claims it was of her own free will. If you find the floor seven secret note while she's like this, she'll say that Drape's class is her favorite one, though this is most likely due to her changed personality.
She's in the same class as Julia, Molly, Cassandra, Victoria, Sarah and the Protagonist.
- She's one of the initial three people you can choose to join your party at the start of a NG+. Depending on what ending you get, it differs who you can choose. However, she will always join you.
  - It's unknown who she'll join if not chosen by the Protagonist during a NG+ (read: creator has not decided who she teams up with yet). Regardless, she waits for the Protagonist to come back from the dungeon as she finishes earlier than him/her.
    - Not choosing her also causes her to lose some affection.
She's the first character added to the game to have a Willing Slave Route.
Her last name is Guile, making her the first student in the game with a confirmed first and last name.
- You can learn her last name by transforming into Val during the Heroic route and entering Mr. Drape's room. He'll refer to you as "Ms. Guile" at that point.
She's one of multiple slaves to only have two different slave outfits. Hers only change colors in Goth personality.
She's the only character to have naturally pink eyes.
- She's also one of two characters to have an unnatural eye color as her default one.
