Valentina



Queen Valentina was first introduced, and only seen in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Valentina was portrayed as a well-endowed woman who had a white dress, a parrot over her head (to represent hair), and always carried a martini wherever she went, the game also reveals that she must have had a thing for birds.

Characteristics
Valentina became an aide in the court of King Nimbus some years after the disappearance of Prince Mallow. With a sharp political wit and a conniving mind, Valentina worked her way up in the ranks of the castle and eventually hatched a plot to take over the castle by imprisoning the King and Queen and passing off her servant, Dodo, as Prince Mallow. Unfortunately for Valentina the real Mallow came along with his friends and spoiled her plans. Valentina escaped and her current whereabouts are unknown. She's vain and considers herself an expert in all high-class affairs. She also has a strange obsession with birds: she keeps many around and wears a very unusual green parrot-like hat on her head. Valentina is not a very dangerous physical fighter, preferring to rely on her brains and assistance from Dodo when she does have to mix it up. She has a decent knowledge of magic too.

Other Background Info
"I used to work in the castle. You should see the way she hits poor Dodo! What a horrible life he must live!" - Nimbus Land citizen "Swaggering around in a high-fashion dress with a cocktail in hand, Valentina sure looks like she might be a birdbrain. Don't be deceived by appearances, though. Behind that pretty face lurks a cunning master of palace politics. Valentina has tossed the king and queen in prison and hornswoggled the trusting folk of Nimbus Land into believing that Dodo is really Prince Mallow. Valentina is an unusual tyrant in that she fancies herself something of an art buff. She's ordered the castle guards to admit no one except the renowned sculptor Garro when he's bringing statues. Hmmm, Valentina's refined taste might offer Mario a chance to sneak into the palace, but he'll have to keep a stiff upper lip!" - Nintendo Player's Guide
