Page "Victoria Waterfield" Paragraph 2

On the outside, Victoria is a typically fragile lady of her era, frequently screaming when faced with the creatures the Doctor and his companions encounter in their travels, such as the Cybermen and the Yeti, the latter which are automatons of the disembodied Great Intelligence.

However, this exterior hides an inner strength that crops up when needed.

Victoria may be young, but she has an instinct for when she is being lied to, and her sensibility is a contrast to the recklessness of Jamie and the curiosity of the Doctor.

Jamie, in particular, is very protective towards and fond of Victoria, and is heartbroken when she chooses to leave.
