For those that don't recognize me, I'm Liz. My AIM is Draqonelle and I humbly offer up the Valliants. Mystery solving, globe trotting, victorian twins. Their Father is the famed Professor G. Valliant, a superhero and super scientist of his day.
Vance is a strapping athletic lad, on the verge of manhood. He dreams of being the next Leonardo Da Vinci though his inventions are not only ahead of their time, but generally backfire. He has no interest in getting married. (Even the prurile interest of the average young man, if you catch my drift.) He likes animals, feats of daring, and sobriety. He cannot refuse a gentleman's wager non matter how inane.
Violet is a beautiful young lady, stern and bookish. She is a terrible gossip, has a memory for facts and figures, who cares for her brother and father. She is always seen with opera glasses and a small notebook. She is unlucky in love, and many of the young men she wishes would take an interest, turn out to become only friends. She wishes to break free from the world, and find a man who likes travel, art and has a supreme love of Schadenfraude. She loves to go shopping, go undercover to uncover treachery (mostly because she is an adequate actor and loves to surprise people when she unveils her true identity) and the company of people who think just like her. She is overly anxious

Mentor/Assistant/babysitter for Vance Vance is a energetic and scatterbrained inventor. He may need a sterner influence, mainly so he doesn't turn himself purple or cut off his fingers. An older gentleman who perhaps with a scientific or mechancial background, or even an intelligent freethinker and innovator, whom could Convince the young man to be wiser, and help him with his loss.
London Friends Violet is seeking to expand her social circle. For now she only wishes to make friends with people who think the exact same way she does. But anyone will do. She is very upset over her loss and becoming cross with her brother
enemies, rivals, frenemies or friendly rivals Vance will probably get in some fights. He is very aggressive. Violet is very nosey and it will get her in jams. Don't you just love to hate them?
Bully Cad and Thief Violet did have one suitor. The sworn Enemy of Vance Valliant. He even tied her to the railroad tracks when she refused to marry him. Not really a threat, melodramatic and insane. Still may harbor emnity and lust for the twins.
