Valdi is a Hero in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. He is a Levnis mechanic from Colony 30.

Hero Quest
Valdi's Hero Quest, The Kind Right Hand, is part of the main story.

Valdi first observes the party from a cliff at Elise's Sprout before being messaged by Yuzet, warning him that the Consul is searching for him. Valdi them tells Yuzet to lie to the Consul before attacking the party with two Equites-type Levnises.

After being defeated, he request the party to help him build a Levnis from salvaged parts around the surrounding areas, including a Levnis Auxiliary CPU from a stash in Terra Wasteland, a Levnis Self-Charger from a Equites-type Levnis, and a Levnis Endoskeleton at a Levnis wreckage. While searching, he is dismayed how poorly his Levnises were treated and reveals he has an injury, and that his gauntlet was made by his masterpon as a token of recovery. After getting the necessary part, the party returns to Elise's Sprout. There he builds a non-combat Levnis named Mechafriend. However the celebration was short-lived with the arrival of Consul Q, forcing him to return to Colony 30 to finish building a very powerful Levnis, however in reality Valdi wants to destroy it. However Mechafriend (under the directive of protecting Valdi) and the party follows him.

At the colony, Q urges Valdi to speed up the construction, but swears under his breath to the Incomplete Siege-Lev that it will not be used for hurting others. Before Valdi gets a chance to destroy it however, Q however overhears him, physically assaults Valdi and hijacks the Levnis to attack him. However Mechafriend and the party arrives to protect Valdi from harm. Annoyed, Q piloting the Levnis steps on Mechafriend, much to Valdi's horror before attacking the party, but they manage to destroy the Levnis and Q retreats. Valdi then laments the apparent destruction of Mechafriend, but Lanz told him that he lived how he wanted to, before thanking the party. Noah requests Valdi to destroy the Colony's Flame Clock in which Valdi accepts. After the destruction of the Flame Clock, Valdi joins the party as one of the Heroes, teaching the party the Wall Climbing skill.
