{Valentino Scorpius}
{Age/School Year: 15/Year 9}
{Picture of OC or thorough physical description: Valentino is a short, twiggy young boy with a sort of pale complexion and a lightly freckled face. He possesses dark brown eyes and short, feathery-looking pinkish-red hair with a few brown streaks in it. He also has slightly pointed teeth. When not in his school uniform, Valentino prefers to wear pink and brown colored clothing with his favorite blue jeans and brown boots.}

{Quote: "Is it so wrong to try and help people find who they belong with?"}
{Special Talent/skill inherited from parents: He ended up being a little bit of a wannabe cupid thanks to his mother.}
{History: Like Twitch, Valentino never knew his real parents. He was taken in to the Scorpius family when he was very young and grew up the youngest in the family after his older brother. It was discovered when he was a little kid that he had a certain desire to try and get his friends together into pairs based on how well he thought they got along. No one quite knew why Valentino liked trying to play cupid, or why Valentine's Day was his favorite holiday, but that was the way things had turned out. His parents showed concern because of this, though, and tried to keep him from doing so. As he grew older, Valentino began to become more involved with putting together dances at his school just so he could try to get people together as couples.
When he was getting ready to enter high school, a strange man came to his home and invited him to what seemed to be a prestigious school. What followed was Valentino discovering his true heritage. He was the son of Leroy and Experiment 323. Unlike so many others, Valentino was very skeptical about this idea. Him being related to two aliens that didn't even look compatible? Preposterous! Valentino had to go, though. What he decided to do was cause trouble. He'd run around doing what he loved best, and that was trying to pick out couples.}
{Adoptive Family – Beatrix Scorpius (mother), Dominic Scorpius (father), Alexander Scorpius (brother)}
{Likes – Valentine's Day, romance novels, chocolate of all kinds, dances, birds (particularly humming birds), and romance movies (including romantic comedies)}
{Dislikes – Horror movies, being called girly (it happened on occasion at his old school), and science}
{Fun Facts:
As of this moment, Valentino is unaware that Twitch is his cousin.
He once got in trouble at his old school for trying to pair two guys in his class together. Such attempts at pairing haven't happened again since then, but deep down he does want to try once more at the very least.
He is a boy of few words, much like his true mother.}
{Sample Post: Much like a bird, Valentino tilted his head to the side and looked on at the pair he could see talking in the garden. That girl and boy had been talking for what had felt like an eternity, but he hadn't seen much more progress than that. It was infuriating to Valentino. Couldn't those two see they belonged together? Perhaps it was time for him to become involved again. Slowly, silently, Valentino slipped out of his hiding spot and crept toward the pair so that he could try to nudge them a little closer together.
Come on... just a little closer...
Valentino reached his hand out toward the girl and he stretched it a bit. He had to be very careful to avoid being caught. The last time he'd been caught, he'd received a stern lecture from his father about not playing matchmaker. Well, he'd just have to be extra careful. That was what he'd decided. What followed was a gentle nudge from the teen, causing the girl to move a little bit closer to the guy before he ducked into the bushes behind them. Now all that was left to do was wait to see what happened.}
