Veronica Cecilia Lodge is a main character in the series.

Veronica is a student at Riverdale High School. In addition, she was the former leader of the band Veronica and the Pussycats and a current member of the River Vixens Cheerleading Squad. She moved from New York to Riverdale due to her father's arrest and subsequent incarceration.

## Biography

She first appears walking home at night when a drunk bus driver almost hits her, but she's saved by Hulk, who hides his face with his hoodie. He then escorts her home and then they bid farewell for now.

The next day at school, she tells Betty and Kevin about her “mysterious yet sexily hooded rescuer”, whom Betty is curious about while Kevin secretly hopes that Veronica's rescuer is single.

After school, she sees Hulk, once again hooded, beating down some Southside Serpents that were assaulting an old man from the Northside. She manages to confront Hulk, who tells her his name, but also tells her not to tell anyone about him. She tells him that she won't, then asks him to spend some time with her. He reluctantly agrees, and the two quickly become friends, though clearly, there's some attraction going on between them, particularly from Veronica, as when she sleeps that night, she has an erotic dream where the two strip and hook up.

## Personality

Much like her nemesis Cheryl Blossom, Veronica is charismatic, confident, and very determined. Before her father's arrest, Veronica was a nasty, cruel bully, even describing herself as being “worse than Cheryl". Veronica even once drove one girl to transfer schools and go into psychiatric therapy. After the downfall of her father, however, Veronica was humbled by the barrage of accusations made against her and her family, resolving her to change.

Veronica has also been shown to be an outspoken feminist. This is evidenced when she and Betty help all of the other girls who were victims of a football teams playbook and stood up against the "slut shaming" that had happened because of it. Veronica is often quite elegant and charming, from her fashion sense to her demeanor. She is also rather sophisticated, as she loves to read and often quotes or references works of literature or plays, though most people are annoyed by this.

## Appearance

   Veronica is an olive-skinned, young Latina woman with straight, medium-length glossy jet-black hair, large expressive brown eyes, a slender yet voluptuous physique and long slim legs. Despite her family's recent misfortune, in which her father was arrested and everything they owned was taken from them, Veronica has managed to maintain her fancy and luxurious wardrobe, consisting of everything from stylish and expensive dresses to Louboutin heels. Her outfits often include her signature black cape with an authentic pearl necklace that was given to her by her father. She also has a sophisticated, elegant, and sexy look about her, that often draws people in.
