Her life and that of her family was put under a media microscope and while ALEPH could find little subversive dealings in the family businesses, they were socially liberal and their lifestyle was demonized.  Valentina’s mother and father saw the writing on the wall and made a deal with Bakunin for asylum and citizenship.<br/><br/>Valentina was enrolled into a Bakunin Military Academy tied to the Moderators.  Her parents secretly scrambled Valentina’s identity with another PanOceania citizen to make her harder to track down by ALEPH through Maya. During academy training Valentina showed a proficiency in robotics and remotes and joined the Moderators after her schooling as a Technician.  During her work with the Moderators Valentina came into contact with an undercover O-12 agent who had infiltrated a particularly repugnant VaudeVille Body Shop that was kidnapping and mutilating the underclass of Bakunin.  During a Moderator operation on the same Body Shop Valentina rescued the O-12 whose cover had been blown and helped get her off ship.<br/><br/>This did not sit well with her superiors who wanted to question the O-12 agent, so Valentina left the Moderators and took a job with Carry All Couriers who offered her advance training in Remote Operations, an area that Valentina had a particular interest in from her days at the Academy.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Signature Skills (Expertise/Focus)</strong><br/><br/>Pilot – Coordination (3/1)<br/>Talent: Ace (The character may reroll one d20 when making a Pilot test, but must accept the new result.
