Unhinged, Unorthodox, Contained

Think the unhinged detective or wildcard suspect.  These characters have a dry humor that can break the tension of their passionate behavior.  Every character has a story that simultaneously creates their weakness and their strength. 

Veronica's stand up comedy and theatre experience create the foundation that makes her highly trained.  Her look makes you believe she could be a hard ass explosion or a weirdo wrapped up behind her glasses and smirk.
