Powers and Abilities
Valentina is similar in appearance to Medusa of Greek Mythology. As a result, she can use her hair to bite people with similar effect to a deadly viper. She also has her own fangs (which assumably also contain venom) as well as the ability to change her form. She can either transform herself into a giant snake-like creature or her limbs into one or more snakes. She does not seem to be able to separate any of these snakes.
Valentina is a Serpent Queen, and as such has the ability to communicate with and control all sorts of serpents. She can even use her snakes to bite regular humans for unusual effect. If they should survive the experience, their strength and toughness increase dramatically but they can be controlled by Valentina in a similar fashion to her serpentine servants.
