Veranda Grimom, usually called Veranda, is Sye's woefully apathetic, Emoguin-adhering, older sister. She is a PWNguin. Though aware of the Xet predicament, she doesn't give a care in the universe about it not only because she knows that Xet is virtually harmless, but because she doesn't seem to care about a lot of things beyond her core interests. She is most notably addicted to video games and does not leave home without a portable game console of some type.
Background
Veranda apparently hatched about six months before Sye, and from day one, her apathy was apparent. She was uncaring and seemed to lack compassion, even for the most minor of situations. Things that moved most penguins to tears barely got a passing glance from Veranda. Her neutrality does swing both ways, though, as there are not many things she explicitly loves or hates. As long as she has a video game and something to eat, she is fine regardless of circumstance or situation.
This, however, did not pertain to Sye, who came into the picture six months later. Veranda didn't hate Sye, but it is clear that she enjoyed picking on him. She would take his glasses (when he started wearing them), mess up his hair, or push him and otherwise physically harm him, especially if he was in the way of the television or in her seat.
She actually learned of Xet before Sye did, but, as with all things in life, she couldn't possibly care less. She lets Sye do his own thing these days, that "thing" being trying to halt Xet. However, Xet is foolish enough to halt his own plans, excluding Kirbguin, of course.
Involvement
What is there to involve? Veranda loafs around the family igloo, her focus glued to her video game, only getting up to eat, drink, and sleep. She gives no concern to her appearance or what she wears; this is because invariably wears the same black dress, sweater, and skull pendant day in and day out, complete with matching boots.
Her apathy is strong enough that nothing short of a natural disaster would result in her simply getting up and waddling to a safer location, only to sit back down and continue her video game. She has never given assistance to anyone except Sye, and Sye is too frightened, spastic, or immersed in his quest to stop Xet to pay attention to her dull, flat, monotone voice.
Interests
We all know how much she loves video games, but how much does she love them? Her apathetic nature can and will waver in the case of a new game, in which she will do anything, anything, to get her hands on it. She has no regard for the desires and goals of others, even if they are like-minded. She tries to camp out outside game stores to be the first one there when a new game or console releases, but these plans often fall flat by virtue of her being a child with no autonomy or transportation methods besides walking. This has not stopped her, though.
Trivia
- Veranda's full name is an anagram meaning "Gaz from Invader Zim". Gaz is her parody.
- No one has ever seen her reaction to her game console's battery running out. It never seems to do so.
- She bears little resemblance to the rest of her family.
- Veranda is one of the Pizza Parlor's biggest patrons, often ordering pizzas and even keeping her own tab there, a feat not many penguins have accomplished. She somehow obtains the money to do so, probably from Sye's player card.
- Some just call her the "anthropomorphic personification of apathy", or "that scary penguin", or "Sye's sister".
