Revision as of 19:34, 11 March 2023
Véronique was a Niden Elect of Fealty before she and Fealty defected.
Appearance
Véronique was face cast as Wikipedia:Hunter Schafer, specifying; blonde, tall, and skinny.[1]
Their dress uniform is a blue dress jacket covered in hundreds of cameos, similar to the doublet the queen in The Green Knight wears.[2]
Personality
Véronique is impulsive and committed, especially to her technically athletic skill,[3] and initially very loyal to their Stel. Early in her escape from Curtain forces they struggle to rationalize their actions, with her oaths to Fealty and to her Stel coming into conflict.[4]
She talks constantly about track-and-field with Fealty, and does not realize how often she does.[5]
Véronique often refers to herself as the Elect Fealty, in the same way as addressing Divines, and herself and Divine Fealty collectively as Fealty.[6][7] They expresses several times that they think they literally can not be killed due to their status as Fealty's Elect.[8]
History and Involvement
Véronique first became an Elect at 16, with her initial ceremony being held at her high school, Artwright, the same school Gucci Garantine and Clementine Kesh a couple years before Véronique.[9]
While in school they were a "beloved jock" who competed in multiple track and field events (including some type of running, high and/or long jump, and javelin).
In her appearance in the HOUNDs Arc she is 24 years old and has been an Elect for 8 years.
Early in the Curtain's search for a way into the Twilight Mirage Fealty and Véronique are escorting the Peaceful Princept across Nidean space when Fealty happens to catch sight of something that will allow the Stel access to the Mirage. Véronique initially intends to report this to the Princept, but loses their nerve and is forced to flee when the rest of the escort realizes something is wrong.
Véronique and Fealty proceed to try and escape their pursuers, fleeing with the Portcullis System to the Skarnoc Debris Fields where they kill Curtain forces, start a small kingdom, and come into conflict with Millennium Break agents. Over the course of their journey Véronique and Fealty are petitioned by Perennial, Amaryllis, Acacia, and Gallica. After eventually deciding that their only option is to flee to the Twilight Mirage, Véronique expresses doubt that they will be allowed in, but proceeds with the mission after Fealty assists them in formally breaking their oath to their Stel and Fealty swears an oath to Véronique, which is broadcasted across the sector. This leads to several other ships, including Pressure Cove of the Fox in the Snow joining up with the pair (much to Véronique's frustration).

Upon reaching the edge of the Mirage, Véronique, Fealty, and their followers are cornered by the forces of the Curtain. While their followers fight, Véronique and Fealty choose to pilot directly into the Mirage, risking being lost forever in exchange for preventing the Curtain or Pact forces from being able to retrieve any information from them about how to breach the Twilight Mirage.
Relationships
Fealty
Veronique has a very close relationship with Fealty, having begun her service as an Elect at 16. Véronique has a very close, even codependent relationship with Fealty; they both refer to each other as "Anchor" with all the associated symbolic baggage. Fealty has also called her an Excerpt. Notably, Véronique has a habit of referring to both her and Fealty as one person, ie. "We can't do that, we're Fealty".
Véronique often turns to Fealty with questions about the world and their place in it, doubly so after they betray Stel Nideo.
Amaryllis
Amaryllis is the Elect of Conviction that was sworn in only weeks after Véronique. The two are on good terms, to the point where Amaryllis reaches out to Véronique when they and Fealty go rogue, being unsure about what to do, and just wanting to talk. Véronique asks Amaryllis to join them, and though they decline, Amaryllis admits that if their divines choose to fight, they will not willingly raise their weapon against Véronique.
