==Appearance & Personality==

Veronica appears to be a very young girl with light skin, indigo-~~colored~~ eyes, and long blonde hair with a fringe worn in two braids, tied in orange hairbands at the ends. She wears a long red wizard's hat, a red dress with a large red bow in the front over a cream-colored smock with puffed sleeves, blue bracelets, and purple leather shoes with orange socks. She also carries a very large [[Heavy Wand (weapon type)|wand]] topped with a red orb that is much taller than her.

She also carries a very large [[Heavy Wand (weapon type)|wand]] topped with a red orb that is much taller than her.

She is a strong-willed magical prodigy, but hates being treated like a child. This is due to the fact that Veronica is actually older than she appears, but after an encounter in [[Hotto]] with monsters serving the [[Mordegon|Lord of Shadows]], her appearance was transformed into that of a young girl and she temporarily lost her magical powers. With the aid of the Luminary and [[Erik]], Veronica was able to rescue her sister Serena and defeat the monster who stole her powers, [[Jarvis]], but she did not return to her true age. Despite her displeasure at her childish form, Veronica enjoys getting piggyback rides from [[Hendrik]] due to his height, something that she wouldn't be able to do normally.<ref>[[Dragon Quest XI Character Book]]</ref>

Veronica appears as a DLC costume for the [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Mii_Swordfighter_(SSBU) Mii Swordfighter].

==~~Etymology~~==

==Name Origin==

Veronica is the Latin alteration of the name Berenice, a name which means "bringing victory". The spelling of Veronica is influenced by the Latin phrase ''vera icon'', which means true image, possibly referring to Veronica's transformation and her true fate. Veronica is the name of a saint who lived in Jerusalem in the 1st century AD who famously wiped Jesus's face with a cloth and then found his image imprinted on it. It became a popular girls' name in medieval times due to this legend. It was not common in modern times until the 19th century, when the name was brought from France and Scotland.

~~The word ''vim'' is an antiquated adjective that describes someone as being very lively and full of high energy.~~

==Trivia==

Line 987:

Line 1,034:

** Veronica is the older of the two twins and Maya is a few years older than Meena.

* Veronica is the party member who levels up the fastest, and she will often be ahead of the other characters.

** This is to compensate her complete absence in Act 2, as well as so she can learn more skills to be passed on to Serena during the tail end of Act 2 when Serena gets Veronica's entire skillset.

* She is able to dress like [[Stella]] and High Priestess [[Jacqueline]] by equipping certain pieces of armor.

* Veronica is the only party member who has the same name in the original Japanese and English versions of the game.

* In her child form, Veronica is 110 cm tall, or 3 feet and 7 inches.

* In the international [https://www.famitsu.com/news/202001/11190471.html fan poll] for ''Dragon Quest XI'' released by Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu, Veronica was voted the second most popular female character in the game and the fourth overall, with a total of 506 votes.

* Her motto is, 'Where there's a will, there's a way'

* She wants to become a magic teacher after the world is returned to its peaceful state.

* Her favourite thing about herself is her signature braids and she enjoys shouting down Erik for stress relief. The things she wants most are stylish shoes in children's size. She also enjoys spicy food.

* When she is afflicted with [[Sultry Dance]] in battle, Veronica will perform the can-can.

* Each of the Luminary's companions represents one of the classes in [[Dragon Quest III]]. Veronica represents the mage.

 Veronica appears as a DLC costume for the [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Mii_Swordfighter_(SSBU) Mii Swordfighter].
-==Etymology==
+==Name Origin==
 Veronica is the Latin alteration of the name Berenice, a name which means "bringing victory". The spelling of Veronica is influenced by the Latin phrase ''vera icon'', which means true image, possibly referring to Veronica's transformation and her true fate. Veronica is the name of a saint who lived in Jerusalem in the 1st century AD who famously wiped Jesus's face with a cloth and then found his image imprinted on it. It became a popular girls' name in medieval times due to this legend. It was not common in modern times until the 19th century, when the name was brought from France and Scotland.
-The word ''vim'' is an antiquated adjective that describes someone as being very lively and full of high energy.
