Valeria Richards, is the child of Reed and Sue Richards of Earth-616, and apparently died at birth but was saved by her brother Franklin who, using his almost limitless powers, sent her off to a future alternate Earth-99315 where her parents became Doctor Doom and Susan Storm von Doom. When older she adopted the alias “Marvel Girl” and eventually returned to Earth-616 and met her original family. At some point Franklin’s powers were depleted and Valeria von Doom reverted back to her original form in the pregnant Sue Richards. She had the same complications that she died from the first time but this time she was able to be saved by Doctor Doom, who became her godfather. She grew up to become a genius intellect and have many fantastic adventures on her native Earth-616. Valeria von Doom of Earth-99315, who originally died while being born to Reed and Sue Richards of Earth-616, was sent by Franklin Richards, her older brother with almost limitless mental powers, to a future alternate Earth-99315 to be the child of Doctor Doom and Susan von Doom. While growing up there she took the alias of Marvel Girl. At some point she returned to Earth-616 and became associated with the Fantastic Four extended family and had many adventures there. When Franklin’s powers dissipated, she reverted back to the baby born to Sue Richards, who grew up to be the Earth-616 Valeria Richards.
