Velma Dinkley is a fictional character in the Scooby-Doo franchise. She is seen as the brains of the group. Throughout her various incarnations, Velma is usually portrayed as a highly intelligent young woman with highly specific interests in science which in the Scooby and Scrappy-Doo series leads her to pursue a career as a NASA research scientist or merely being very well read on obscure fields, such as Viking writing as in the third Scooby-Doo series The Scooby-Doo Show.

In Scooby-Doo! Abracadabra-Doo , Velma is described by her younger sister Madelyn as being “born with a mystery book in her hand”.
