* series debut

Velour Ribbon is a female Madness protagonist created by Cymbourine. She has debuted in her own animation by Gabriel Barsch, VELOUR.mp4.

## Appearance

Velour stands out not only as female, but also for having a fully expressive face, a feature she shares with a couple other non-canon Madness characters like Gabriel Barsch. She wears a gray dress with a red central pocket, a red scarf and her large signature red ribbon on her head. She wears black fingerless gloves, similar to those weared by Hank, and has been once been portrayed having black tinted fingernails. Unlinke most other nevadeans, her shoes are more detailed, also having spikes underneath that she occasionally uses to stomp oponents to death.

She has straight brown hair and brown eyes with large black eyelashes. She is often depicted having a green, transparent wireframe body underneath her clothes: This is the equivalent of being "naked" for Madness characters, as in Zapchon Tries Energy Drink, a grunt blushed after taking a picture of her in that form.

This green wireframe also appears when she is wounded, and she has been depicted possessing green blood and tongue. This heavily implies all her insides have this color and she only has the usual gray nevadean skin on her head, while the rest of her body is fully transparent with a green wireframe around it.

## History

### VELOUR.mp4

Velour appears as the protagonist in this animation. She is jailed inside a high security Nexus Core/Nexus Prominence facility (evident by the logos on the doors) and has just escaped contaiment, breaking through the bars and killing an agent by smashing his head on the wall. She goes around killing many prison personnel and escapes successfully through the front entrance with a motorcycle, stolen from a MadEats employee.

## Abilities

Velour has been shown to be exceptionally strong, even when compared to some other Madness protagonists, most notably portrayed when she wields her iconic megahammer (which she has also been portrayed being able to summon at will), smashing enemies into walls and floors, and even moving tons of dirt with her strikes. Despite the large surface area of her shoe spikes, her stomps are so strong that she can crack open skulls with them, and she was once able to blast an armored G0L3M through a steel door by simply charging onto them in full speed.

Velour also possess immense endurance, surviving an RPG explosion in an elevator as well as being dragged many dozens of meters through solid ground. This is amplified by her regeneration capabilities, not too dissimilar from kryy's (though maybe not as powerful).

Similarly to many other Madness protagonists, Velour has insane agility and reflexes, dodging bullets and melee attacks from behind. She is also profficient with both melee and ranged weaponry, and just like other protagonists can easily switch between very different weapons quickly and easily during combat.

## Trivia

* In Velour.mp4 a Velour plushie can be seen inside a vending machine while she licks a lollipop.
* Additionally, the vending machine she gets her lollipop from is completely fine, which implies that she paid for it.
