Velma is a pink goat, with dark pink freckles and yellow horns. She has reddish-brown hair, including a goatee. She wears black cat-eye glasses with blue lenses, and has black eyes. In New Horizons, the glasses have purple lenses and her eyes are bright blue. Her initial clothing is the Cool Shirt, which is a design by Gracie. In New Leaf, she instead wears the Swell Tee. She bears a resemblance to Velma Dinkley, a fictional character from the Scooby-Doo franchise.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the snooty personality. For more information, click here.
Velma has a snooty personality, which means she loves makeup and gossiping. As a snooty villager, Velma will first appear rude and arrogant towards the player, often talking about herself and her own experiences. She also speaks about the style and appearance of other villagers, usually other female villagers such as normal, peppy, and other snooty villagers. She will soon warm up to the player, confiding in them about their own feelings but still keeping subtly rude. Velma will not get along with lazy villagers due to them not caring about their appearance or the lazy villagers hating what she eats, and she won't get along with jockvillagers because they will question her on her physical appearance and they won't worry about fashion. However, she will get along with cranky villagers due to their similar rude personalities, and usually normal villagers as well.
In New Leaf, Velma has many pieces of the Classic Series. This includes the couch, the bookcase, the table, and the buffet. She also has a Pink Velvet Stool, and a grand piano. She displays Red Tulips on top of her Classic Buffet. Her Retro Stereo plays K.K. Etude.
In New Horizons, Velma's house has a scholarly theme. She has a violin, a piano, and a metronome, along with some antique furniture. She has the classic library wallpaper and light parquet flooring. She has a phonograph that plays Mr. K.K..
Velma thinks she knows what's best for everybody, and she's not afraid to voice her opinions, no matter how inappropiate they may be. Of course, if you voice your opinion about her glasses, she gets mad.
It is possible that her English name is an intended reference to Scooby Doo character Velma Dinkley, due to their shared aspects of appearance (reddish-brown hair, freckles, and glasses).
Velma is the only female goat villager to have a tuft of beard-like hair on her chin, a trait of nearly all male goat villagers.
Her Japanese picture quote is "一流、名門、エリート", which translates to "First-class, prestigious, elite". This is reflective of her snooty personality.
In New Horizons, Velma's preferred styles are Elegant/Gorgeous, and her preferred colors are Aqua/Purple.
