Article on Dragon Quest Wiki Veronica (Dragon Quest XI)

Veronica (ベロニカ, Veronica) is a character from Dragon Quest XI and is the game's dedicated mage.

Origin

Veronica is a brash mage that the player first meets in Hotto, looking for her twin sister, Serena. Veronica and Serena are Keepers, a group of people dedicated to aiding the Luminary in defeating evil. Despite appearing very young, she is actually much older, but her magic and her age were stolen by a monster named Jarvis.

The Luminary helps Veronica defeat Jarvis and get her sister and her magic back, but her age does not until return much later in the game. After returning to Hotto and learning about how to get to Yggdrasil, Veronica and Serena both swear to protect the Luminary in his quest to defeat the Dark One, and save Erdrea.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
