- “My beauty simply shines forth like the sun!”
- —Valentina, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Valentina was first introduced and only seen in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Valentina is a well-endowed woman, who wears a white dress, has what appears to be a parrot on top of her head in place of hair, and is always seen carrying a martini glass.
History
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Valentina became an aide in the court of King Nimbus several years after the disappearance of Mallow, who is actually King Nimbus's and Queen Nimbus's son (i.e. the heir to the throne of Nimbus Land). She managed to work her way up in the hierarchy of the Nimbus court, and eventually hatched a plot to take control of Nimbus Land by imprisoning King and Queen Nimbus and then passing off her assistant, a large black bird named Dodo, as the prince of Nimbus Land. She would probably have succeeded without the intervention of Mario, Mallow, Geno, Bowser, and Princess Toadstool, who managed to defeat her, thus spoiling her plans.
After being defeated, she fell on the balcony of Booster's Tower and Booster attempted to marry her. Surprisingly, he succeeded.
Personality
Valentina has been shown to be an extremely bossy and domineering person which seems to treat her henchmen and just about everyone else around her with as little respect as possible. Despite the blatant disrespect she shows toward her underlings (especially towards Dodo), as well as the apparent hatred they have toward her (as shown in Birdy's Psychopath), they still remain loyal to her regardless. Valentina also thinks a bit highly of herself, believing herself to be beautiful beyond compare, as well as a refined "art buff."
