Biography[]
A member of Sapientes Gladio, Veronica is the sadistic subordinate and lover to Rasputin. She enjoys torturing her victims and will do anything in her power to help Rasputin achieve his goals.
Veronica becomes a temporary playable character along with Lenny Curtis, in the director's cut of Shadow Hearts: Covenant.
She has her own unique weapon, and her own armour.
Abilities[]
As a temporary playable character in the Director's Cut of Covenant, Veronica automatically comes with a list magic, which is called "Punishment", to use in battle. Although the list is rather small, her final skill can be powerful if paired up in to a combo with other characters.
In the PAL version, it's possible to add her to the party via the Debug Island's menu. Her list of magic is mistranslated as 'Panish', and each spell and its description only read as 'Unknown', but work perfectly regardless. When using Aroma Oil - Stun Perfume, she uses a Japanese voice clip, but otherwise uses English voice samples used when fighting her as a boss earlier in the game.
She can have up to three hit areas on the Judgement Ring.
Punishment[]
Punishment is the special sorcery magic used by Veronica in Director's Cut. The first two skills are available for normal characters to use by equipping the correct crests. However, "Aroma Oil - Stun Perfume" is a personal skill exclusive to Veronica only.

Trivia[]
- Veronica is shown using the spell Demon Rays in cutscenes, though she never uses the spell in battle.
- Veronica is a Dominatrix and much of her character is based around exagerated BDSM concepts, from her sadistic personality to her liking for slaves who she makes call her 'Queen', as well as her recurring theme of punishment. While her torture chamber utilizes a voltage machine instead of the 'usual' methods of sadism in BDSM, her weapon is called 'Rude spanking' with the description 'A favorite of those with a taste for domination, humiliation and the turning of pain into pleasure" implying she does utilize more traditional punishments like spanking. She also hits whichever torture victim is selected across the chest once before getting started, and if the player chooses to mock her age, she will give a full whipping across there chest. This includes females like Lucia and Karin, who she whips across their breasts in this scenario.
