Velma.

Velma Dinkley is a character from the Scooby-Doo series. She is the bespectacled resident genius and second-in-command of Mystery Inc., often being the one to decipher the clues and solve the crimes.

She originally met Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore, Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, Owl, and Gopher in the first (and, for so far, only) episode of The New Winnie the Pooh Movies entitled The Pooh Mysteries (which featured the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! pilot episode What a Night for a Knight). Pooh's Adventures of Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins will truly explain how Pooh and his friends first met Scooby-Doo and the gang.

Appearance[edit | edit source]

Velma is a Caucasian teenage female, with chin-length auburn hair and freckles. She is somewhat obscured by her fashion choices, wearing a baggy, thick turtlenecked orange sweater, with a red skirt, red panties, knee length orange socks and black Mary Jane shoes. Velma has a slightly wider waist than the thinner framed Daphne Blake, as seen when both are dressed in swimwear, but this may be exaggerated due to her sweater, which makes her look somewhat heavyset. Her facial shape is also more circular/square compared to the ovular shape Daphne. She is also well known for her thick-framed, square glasses.

Personality[edit | edit source]

She has a fascination with mysteries (her younger sister Madelyn said that she was "born with a mystery book in her hand". At times she can be competitive with other people who are very intelligent like she is, such as Verona Dempsey.

She is sharp-witted and sometimes sarcastic, not lost on others. She also seems to love secrecy, and has a bit of slyness in her character, as she was the only gang member to actually perpetrate a hoax, albeit for a noble reason, as she was helping Omar Karam protect Cleopatra's riches. In the same case, she was also overly-caring of the gang, as she wanted to protect them from harm's way, despite everything they've been through.

When she found some unappetizing chicken at the Addams Family mansion, she said "it's time to start my diet." While this may be an excuse, the phrasing "my" rather than "a" implies that she may diet regularly, perhaps self-conscious of her weight.

She loses her glasses on a regular basis, immediately claiming "My glasses. I can't find my glasses" or "I can't see without my glasses," before hitting the floor to crawl around until she finds them.

She is a very serious skeptic, and has a philosophy that they're always a rational explanation (and admits that it's kinda boring).[citation needed]

She conquered her extreme phobia of clowns during the Menacing Metallic Clown case.

She also thinks herself as pure of heart and got annoyed that no one kidnaps her during the Valdronya case.

She can also identify fake jewels by looking at them, having dealt with a variety of monster jewel thieves for years.
