Valorie is a hero in Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Dungeons Arcade, as well as the novel The Rise of the Arch-Illager, where she is known as Red to Karl. She is also the leader of the quad of heroes consisting of herself, Hex, Hal, and Adriene. She was the first hero to be named and appears in most of the promotional material for the game.

Appearance

Valorie has red hair and a navy blue outfit with brown boots, gloves, and a belt. Her eyes are green and she has bright amber skin.

Personality

Valorie is brave, headstrong, and fiercely loyal. She’s the type of person who throws herself into danger without hesitation to protect her friends and stand up for what’s right. However, her determination can sometimes make her reckless, and she struggles with patience and thinking things through. Despite this, she has a strong sense of justice and genuinely cares about others, making her a natural leader, even if she doesn’t always see herself that way.

Biography

MINECON Earth 2018

Valorie was shown, along with three other characters, Hex, Adriene, and Hal, during the trailer at MINECON Earth 2018. Her name was not announced at the time. In the trailer, she nods to Adriene, the hero to her left after the scene with the Illagers. She is the last of the four to equip armor and weapons. When she does, she wears the Guard's Armor, as well as a sword.

E3 2019 Gameplay Reveal

During the gameplay reveal of Minecraft Dungeons for E3 2019, Valorie was shown as the first character, running towards a Skeleton which she later kills it by bringing it close with a Fishing Rod and then using her sword. She then proceeds to defeat a Vindicator and a Zombie with a bow. She then runs into an area full of Cobwebs and Spiders to grab a piece of armor. After that, she activates a door to a secret area, which she then enters. She collects a Great Hammer while there, swapping it with her sword. Then, in the Desert Temple area, she kills two husks with the hammer. In another room, she watches as part of a floor slides back to reveal a decorated chest. She then kills several zombies in another room with the hammer. She then moves through a corridor and pulls up a virtual map of the area. Later, in yet another room, she equips a Corrupted Beacon and kills three Vindicators and three Skeletons. Eventually, she is killed off-screen in what we now know to be the Fiery Forge, but is shown being revived by another hero. Two other heroes rush to meet them. There is text above her head reading "MCDungeoneer", although this is more likely to be an example hero name rather than Valorie's real name. She and her three companions walk through a marsh-like area, with two of them (including Valorie) crossing a bridge and the others going around. She then collects a Key Golem and uses it to unlock a door. Later on, she has shown to have better armor and an Iron Golem pet, attacking different mobs. She equips the Tasty Bone item to spawn a Wolf pet as well, and they fight several mobs. After several other battle scenes, including one with hundreds of mobs and a Redstone Monstrosity, the gameplay reveal ends with the Arch-Illager wreaking havoc with the platform names.
