Description
Valerie Aynsley, designated "Number 12," was born circa 1907. She emerged as one of the youngest assistant professors at Randgriz University, establishing herself as a brilliant historian dedicated to uncovering historical truths. Her research intensely focused on the origins of the Darcsen Calamity, driving her to repeatedly access restricted historical ruins and sensitive documents within Randgriz Castle without authorization. These actions stemmed from her conviction that understanding Gallia's history, warfare, and societal prejudices could prevent future persecution. Her mentor's belief deeply influenced her: "knowing history is to know the world and thus humans as a whole."
Gallian authorities perceived Valerie's research as a significant threat to national stability, particularly its potential to expose the royal family's secret Darcsen heritage. Consequently, she was assigned to Squad 422, the penal military unit officially known as "Nameless." This unit comprised individuals deemed undesirable by the Gallian military, including criminals and political dissidents, whose identities were erased and replaced with numerical designations. As "Number 12" within the Nameless, Valerie participated in high-risk operations during the Second Europan War.
Valerie maintained a consistently neutral and analytical demeanor, interacting without regard for age or rank. However, she exhibited a tendency to become entirely absorbed in her research, often rendering her oblivious to her surroundings. Her academic background informed her approach to warfare, favoring the Scout and Engineer classes where she applied strategic thinking and technical skills. Her resilience manifested in combat potentials like "Composure" under fire and "The Gate of History," which activated defensive boosts at critically low health.
Following the Nameless's disbandment after the war, Valerie lost her university position and could not continue her historical research in Gallia. She accepted an opportunity to restart her academic pursuits overseas, joining a research project led by a foreign scholar. This transition concluded her documented journey within Gallian military records.
Her core philosophy underscored her lifelong commitment: "To know the truth of history, one must study history as recorded by the fallen."
