Veronica appears to be a very young girl with 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 white smock with puffed sleeves, blue bracelets, and purple leather shoes with orange socks. She also carries a very tall [[Heavy Wand (weapon type)|wand]] topped with a red orb that is much taller than her. | Veronica appears to be a very young girl with indigo-colored eyes and long blonde hair with a fringe worn in two braids, tied in orange hairbands at the ends.

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]], she 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. | She is a strong-willed magical prodigy, but hates being treated like a child.

With the aid of the Luminary and [[Erik]], she 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. Her real age is a secret. 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> | ||
Although she has an abrasive personality and frequently clashes with others, Veronica has a kind heart and frequently worries about her younger twin due to her haplessness. Since the two sisters traveled alone for some time, Veronica enjoys sitting around the campfire with her companions, especially watching Serena perform with her harp. Her favorite type of food is spicy and her most prized possession is the flute that she received from the elder of Arboria. She relieves stress by arguing with Erik. Veronica's ambition is to become a magic teacher when peace is achieved. | |||

Veronica and her twin sister, Serena, both inherited the soul of the sage [[Serenica]], who accompanied [[Erdwin]], the original Luminary on his journey against the Dark One. The two hail from the land of Arboria and are Keepers, a group of people dedicated to protecting the Luminary and helping him fight against the evils of Erdrea. The two girls have known since birth that they would aid the Luminary on his journey. | Veronica and her twin sister, Serena, both inherited the soul of the sage [[Serenica]], who accompanied [[Erdwin]], the original Luminary on his journey against the Dark One.
