Hi, I was wondering, can anyone here provide a biography of Valeria of the Red Brotherhood as set down by Marvel? Apart from the obvious RED NAILS, I know she has an origin story involving Red Sonja, and appears to help Conan briefly in a story set shortly before Conan becomes king of Aquilonia, but I'm a bit hazy regarding her other appearances.

Valeria’s main appearances outside of Red Nails were in Roy’s Valeria-ized version of Isle of Pirate’s Doom In SSOC scattered thru the 70s and the adaptation of Gods of the Mountain in the 210s.

She's also in one of the mini-series from the late 90s. It's set just after Gods of the Mountain. Blood River I think?

Roy Thomas also chronicled the first meeting of Conan and Valeria in SSOC 196-197, the second story was based on an original Wild Bill Clanton story.
The prequel to Red Nails is in SSOC 225.

Also, Valeria appears in Savage Sword 73, 74, 76-79, 127, 138, 139, 170, 172, 177, 179, 196-198, 201, 211-213, 215, 217, 225. And Conan the Barbarian Movie Special, although that doesn't really count.
That should be all.
Hope this helps

Valeria's characterisation is wildly different in non-Roy Thomas stories. In one where she meets Red Sonja, there's no trace of their past friendship.
