Future Aspirations: She’s not exactly sure where the hero business will lead her, for now being fine remaining as Nightwing’s partner. However, she does wish to become a performer in her civilian identity, whether through her talent with music or acrobats, maybe even both. She also has this strange, but strong, desire to learn more about the Homo Magi race, her Grandmother and their homeworld.

Family: 

  • Dick Grayson - (Father/Mentor - Very much a daddy’s girl, she exhibits many of his traits and qualities. She has been her father’s partner in crime since she was ten, roaming Bludhaven and training under Nightwing. She is very thankful that her father also treats her with respect, hardly ever hiding secrets that could affect her. She does what she can to impress him, looking up to him since she was little.)

  • Zatanna Zatara - (Mother - While she is a daddy’s girl, she will always love her mother. She learnt many of her spells and magical tricks from her, and will often confide in her mother whenever she has outbursts in powers or they react dangerously. She’ll often appear in Zatanna’s shows as her little assistant)

  • Bruno - (Pet Dog ‘Husky’ - Big fluffy guardian her father adopted behind Zatanna’s back. Bruno will almost always be by Valerie’s side when she’s around and is always a teddy she can cuddle with when she is unhappy.)

  • Maya - (Pet Cat ‘Mixed’ - A cat Uncle Damian gifted the family when Valerie was young. She was the pet that taught Valerie how to be patient and respect animals at a young age, as Maya was a shy kitten and now slightly vulnerable in her old age.)

  • Crumpet - (Pet Hedgehog - Her prickly little bean, that is all.)


  • Jason Todd - (Adopted Uncle-In-Law - Being the one to help deliver Valerie at birth after some...mishaps, her middle name is in honour to him. She has given him the ‘Fun Uncle’ title and she can get away with a lot of things around him. He did have a habit of giving her his version of the ‘Birds and Bees’ talk here and there as a young child, which angered Dick to no ends.)

  • Koriand’r - (Adopted Aunt-In-Law - Fun loving Aunt who adores any niece and nephew, Valerie being no exception. Kori will happily take Val flying, as the girl has a need for heights like her father.)

  • Miro Todd - (Adopted Cousin - Being one of the only other Bat Members to join the new Young Justice team, Valerie spends a lot of time with Miro and works well with him in battle, always supporting him in fights. Outside of that, she’ll always be up to hang out with him and Molly)

  • Molly Todd  - (Adopted ‘Cousin’ - Despite being Kori’s niece and not child between her and Jason, Valerie will always openly see Molly as true family. Before Blair, Molly was the only other girl on the team and other only Bat Member too, so the pair would have plenty of sleepovers that they knew the guys couldn’t handle.)

  • Blair Wilson - (Adopted Cousin - Despite being the granddaughter of Deathstroke, Valerie was quick to accept Blair in the team, understanding she never had a choice who her family was. Valerie was the one who taught Blair how to have a normal life, showing her things normal teenagers would enjoy. When it was revealed that Blair was Jason’s child, Val ended up caring for her even more, as this meant they were family. She vows to keep Blair out of Deathstroke’s hands if it’s the last thing she does.)


  • Tim Drake - (Adopted Uncle-In-Law - While Valerie can come off a little too much for someone like Tim to handle along, the pair do enjoy each other’s company. Sometimes it’s nice for Val to have someone calm to talk to.)

  • Stephanie Brown - (Adopted Aunt-In-Law - One of Valerie’s key babysitters in life. Steph never shy away from showing love to her family and Valerie will show it back always.)

  • Jett Drake - (Adopted Cousin - Jett is a hard case for her. He’s often anti-social and didn’t know how to handle her when she was much younger, thus is has been a little off-put by her since. Valerie understands this now and has grown strong people skills, so she doesn’t resent him for it. She is willing to take things slow for him.)

  • Everleigh Drake - (Adopted Cousin - Valerie will always volunteer to babysit her youngest cousin, watching the hell out of Disney movies with her forever.)


  • Damian Wayne - (Adopted Uncle-In-Law - Adore Damian, even if does the whole ‘I’m gonna act tough and neutral half of the time’ around her, like with Dick. But Damian has never said no to babysitting her or training her, has even displayed moments of protectiveness around her.)

  • Raven - (Adopted Aunt-In-Law - While most of her magical problems are worked around with her mother, Valerie has had many talks with Aunt Raven about dark magic, which does not work well with Homo Magis. She’s even had privates talks about it without her parents’ knowledge, as Raven promises to never reveal these secrets.)

  • Aaron Wayne - (Adopted Cousin - Part of a magical team with Caroline, Valerie spends a lot of time with Aaron. Both being magical Bat members and opposites, they just click. They know how to talk to one another and treat each other. Valerie never pushes Aaron into things he’s uncomfortable with, along with giving him social advice, while he will always be willing to listen to her rants or fears, along with being the blunt one her can snap her out of stress.)


  • Cassandra Cain - (Adopted Aunt - Valerie never treats Cass differently, despite how she can come across. Always openly hugging, talking and playing with her, even if Cass doesn’t talk back, mostly just smiling and going along with it.)


  • Katherine Kane - (Aunt Figure - Intense Auntie Kane is intense, but really cool. Valerie always has fun watching Kate kicking ass, while cheering her on from the sides.)

  • Renee Montoya - (Aunt Figure - The pair mostly come across each other through police work, whether it’s because of her father’s job or Owlet talking to police. Renee can respect the girl and what she pushing for, as can Valerie appreciate the work she pushes towards.)

  • Samual Kane - (Cousin Figure - An intense cousin who matches his mother. Valerie knows how to hold him back or argue back without losing her cool, and while he doesn’t say it, he can appreciate that from her.)


  • Barbara Gordon - (Aunt Figure - The sassy Aunt that never fails to make her laugh. She sometimes goes to Babs for specific advice that can be had to ask.)

  • Hugo Gordan - (Cousin Figure - With Hugo being very shy and nervous, Valerie is always willing to take things slow with him or speak for him.)


  • Bruce Wayne - (Adopted Grandfather - Grandbats loves to spoil all his grandkids. Valerie will often tease him, but she adores him. Though when Bruce watches her, it often reminds him of fond memories of when Dick was younger, so he knows how to handle parts of her personality and habits.) 

  • Diana Prince - (Grandmother Figure - Adores Diana with a passion. Said Princess will always be willing to protect and teach her grandchild figure, often helping her understand her raw magical potential that she can struggle with.)

  • Alexsis Trevor - (Cousin Figure - Despite how off putting Alexis can act, Val isn’t afraid to joke with her or sass her back. She understands that Alex still needs time to understand the outside world.)


  • Giovanni Zatara - (Grandfather - At a young age, Valerie didn’t quite understand that Zatara and Dr.Fate were different entities, sometimes even thinking her Grandfather didn’t want to spend time with them. But as she came to understand the truth, she does her best to cherish the one hour each year they get to talk with her parents. However, it does hurt that she can’t get to know him better and how much her mother cries over it.)

  • Sindella - (Grandmother *Deceased* - She’s only heard stories of her Grandmother, the last pure royal Homo Magi. She’s always been meaning to find out more about her (along with the Homo Magi race) through her own means.)


  • John Grayson - (Grandfather *Deceased* - She will always be amazed when listening about stories from her father about her grandparents, wishing she could have met them.)

  • Mary Grayson - (Grandmother *Deceased* - She will always be amazed when listening about stories from her father about her grandparents, wishing she could have met them.)

  • William Cobb - (Great-Great-Grandfather - Her father never lied to her and was very open about the story they had with the Court Of Owls, preparing Valerie in case they would ever come after her. It is unknown wether the Court want her or not, but she has come into contact with her Great-Great-Grandfather, but he didn’t say much before vanishing.)



Weakness/Flaws/Fears: Unable to cast most spells if she can not speak. She is still young and learning, along with having a body not fully developed. Strength, and often defence, isn’t her biggest trait. Much like her father, she struggles to deal with her own negative emotions, which can also badly affect her magic. Dark Magic can linger, sometimes hurting her, whenever she must use it. Her kindness and forgiving nature can be used against her. Puts herself in danger to protect others way too often. Feels the need to take care of everyone, sometimes forgetting basic health care. Powerful magical seals. Taking away her utility belt and ‘toys’, will hinder her. Known to have dangerous magical outbursts and mishaps. Because of her acrobatic skills, taking out her legs, sometimes arms, can limit her movement. Allergic to certain types of flowers. Atychiphobia (Fear of failure, mostly towards other people). Thanatophobia (Fear of death. There have just been moments where she nearly lost someone, and in this line of business, she knows one day it’ll come true). Coulrophobia (Fear of clowns. And this was before she even met the Joker). 

Extra:


Infinite Utility Belt - Valerie just seems to have way too many items that should not be able to fit into her utility belt. Weapons, tools, snacks, accessories, first aid, chalk, toys, stapler, fishing rod, you name it. No one is sure if she used a magical charm on it and she won’t tell. 


Owls! - From a young age, owls have been her favourite animals. Her main plushie is an owl, she dreams of having an owl pet and her hero identity reflects an owl. Of course, the irony being her blood connection to the Court Of Owls has been noted, mostly through her father who did once try to sway her interest, only to fail. 


Representing Song: Am I Wrong - Nico and Vinz

Friends: 

  • Caroline Constantine - (Best Friend/Magic Member - Caroline hangs out with Aaron and Valerie in their magical squad. Both met at a young age when John needed someone to babysit Caroline, leaving her with the Graysons. The two have since then been very close, Valerie always willing to listen and give her advice, whether social or magical. Val is also very determined to ship her with Aaron, as they two clearly like each other!)

  • Adax Hyde - (Friend/Teammate - Being the timidest member, Valerie never pushes him and knows how to draw tension away from him. She understands his deep issues about his placement in life, as she can sometimes relate.) 

  • Apollo West - (Friend/Teammate - With Wally and Dick’s close friendship, there were plenty of times where the family would hang out and Valerie and Apollo would spend time together. They often treat each other likes siblings at times, annoying one another, pranking each other and will always tease the other relentlessly. But they do have their sweet moments and know how to cheer each other up.)

  • Otto Kent - (Friend/Teammate - Valerie can respect Otto leadership in the team, but she will take command if he can not. It’s easy for the two to get into debates on how to tackle a mission, hearing each other out and working well together.)

  • Wally West  - (GodFather - Her other main babysitter, she loves Wally like he is family. That doesn’t stop her from teasing him or pulling a prank on the man.)

  • Artemis Crock - (GodMother - Artemis was one of the only ones who could keep both Apollo and Valerie in line when they are in the same room, their relationship very much reminding her of younger Dick and Wally. So, Valerie respect the woman, but loves her like family.

  • Most Superheroes/Justice League members 

Enemies: 

  • Deathstroke

  • Court Of Owls

  • Most Gotham/Bludhaven Villains

  • N/A

Skills: Magic (Mostly through casting backwards spells. But she’s been learning ones that don’t require speech.) Multilingualism-(Romanian/English/Japanese/Spanish/Russian/Arabic/German/Korean/Cantonese/Mandarin/ASL/Some Latin). Advance Hand-to-Hand Combat/Martial Arts. Acrobatics. Computer Hacking. Acting. Driving (Mostly with motorbikes, but she does know how to drive a car, just can be a little chaotic with her age). Leadership (Not perfect, as she is still young. But she knows how to take charge when she is needed.) Basic Mechanics. Supernatural Agility/Speed/Reflexes/Stamina/Accuracy. High Intelligence/Willpower. Stealth. Tracking. Weaponry. Marksmanship. Decent Swordsmanship. Empathy (Can be through the use of magic, but mostly because of her Grayson side). Flexible. Medical Knowledge. Her gloves have clawed tips.
