GalleryValentina "Val" Ortiz is the captain of the Firehawks hockey team at high school and hockey camp. She first appears on the first day of hockey camp, accidentally bumping into Riley Andersen. She helps Riley up where the girl becomes excited to meet her in person as Riley is a huge fan of Val's. Val then recognizes Riley from stories Coach Roberts told her and the rest of her team, but assumed she was from Michigan instead of Minnesota.
Because of her presence as a popular high-school girl, Riley's new emotions (minus Nostalgia) have done a takeover in their host's headquarters, which involves exiling the five original emotions out of the headquarters. This has abruptly caused Riley herself to behave rather improperly, going through stuff under the influence of Val, such as being distant to her best friends Bree and Grace, pretending to like stuff she's not personally into (such as protein bars), being socially awkward, and even dyeing part of her hair red to emulate Val's.
During the climactic hockey game, Val is shocked to see Riley playing the game competently, but has also done it rather selfishly (thanks to Anxiety's continuous control on her). However, Val later felt devastated after seeing Riley hitting one of her best friends Grace, leading to Riley's anxious state.
After Riley calms herself down and reconciles with Bree and Grace, Val's later seen hanging out with the other Firehawks members, where Riley herself shares to them her best friends. Val then gives Riley some advice about having second chances of making it on the team, saying "there's always next year" to her fellow teammate.Val is a slim Latina teenager with olive skin, brown eyes and long, dark brown wavy hair with a single red streak. She also wears red eyeshadow.
