Valentine
Gakuran
Profile
Having been born with an ailment as serious as Infesio- especially to a Royal line that already had trouble conceiving at all- Val was considered a sign of bad luck and looked at with sadness and shame. He was still loved and cared for, but he knew it was only because he would probably be their only heir... Valentine grew up hating to cause his parents more trouble than he had already, so he closed himself off... his odd horn, the product of hylica catalis, further isolating him from his peers. He stopped speaking to others.... Then, he was introduced to Kirin, the child of the Dirsia Royals. He took a shine to her immediately, as they shared the same ailment... he confided in her and she told him to show his people that he could be strong, and he took those words to heart. However, as time went on and the training to become a proper ruler ramped up for them both, they drifted apart.
Years later, Valentine would be faced with a dizzying amount of suitors looking for his hand- all looking to court him for his country's status as Poltera's Shooting Star Capital of the world. He turned them all away, as he knew there'd be no love, but somehow when Kirin introduced herself as a suitress, he found he couldn't turn her away...
An odd-looking horn, curved upwards with a strange circular, hollow growth protruding from the base, making a crown-like shape. The blood within is pastel pink, a rarity among SoftBots.
Valentine was often shunned by others his age simply because his horn looked funny to most. As he grew older and more independent, however, it was seen as a sign he was a true heir to the throne beyond a shadow of a doubt. Many suitors would compliment him on its uniqueness, but he knew they were just buttering him up as these were the same Bots who shunned him for it as a child. Within the horn, twinkles like stars manifest as part of his Infesio Pleurisma- an often fatal affliction that occurs when blood is tainted during the transfusion of shooting star dust into the blood tubes.

Years later as adults, Kirin came back to Eagragon to offer herself up as a suitress for Valentine, and eventually they indeed fell in love.
Has a resting bitch face and looks a bit intimidating, but he's a soft guy both literally and figuratively.
