Character Profile of Scooby Doo Personils

Scoobert Doo View Family Members NickName: Scooby-Doo Phrase: "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!", "Rut Roh!" Description: Scooby is a cowardly 7-year-old Great Dane who loves to eat. He will do anything for a scooby snack. Scooby is Shaggy's pet and best friend. Scooby and Shaggy are usually the bait for the villains, and always seem to end up in Fred's traps. In the end, they accidentally catch the villains. Scooby always goes with Shaggy when the gang splits up to look for clues. They are occasionally accompanied by Velma. Norville Rogers View Family Members NickName: Shaggy Phrase: "ZOINKS!", "Like, no way man!", "Gang Way!", "Scoob! old friend, old buddy, old pal!" Description: Shaggy is Scooby's owner and best friend. He's lanky, has a goatee, typically wears a green shirt with brown bell-bottoms, and has a huge appetite. Shaggy is a coward, though he and Scooby are usually the bait for the villain. Shaggy and Scooby usually get caught in the traps that Fred sets, along with the villain. When the gang splits up, Shaggy gets paired with Scooby, and occasionally Velma. His ventriloquism and disguise skills frequently come in handy. Is Shaggy really a vegetarian? "From the series inception in 1968, and at least through 1982 when Ruby-Spears produced the Scooby series for ABC that year, Shaggy was not a vegetarian. Joe and Ken always had he and Scooby being ravenous chow hounds who'd eat anything in sight....especially hot dogs, chicken, etc. Some time after that, Kasey apparently became a vegetarian and insisted his Shaggy character be the same. H-B (or Warner's) obviously went along with it." - according to Craig King, webmaster of the Ruby-Spears Productions website, 4/13/2007. It has not been confirmed whether Casey Kasem walked out on the role of Shaggy in 1995 when he was asked to voice Shaggy for a Burger King commercial. Fred Jones View Family Members NickName: Freddy Phrase: "Let's split up, gang..." Description: Freddy is the leader of the gang. He is known for his ascot, which was removed for the series What's New, Scooby-Doo?. He usually drives the Mystery Machine. He is always good at setting traps to catch the villain, but he can never keep them from being fouled up. When the gang splits up, Fred would go with Daphne and Velma, though sometimes Velma went with Shaggy and Scooby. Daphne Blake View Family Members NickName: Danger-prone Daphne Phrase: "Jeepers!" Description: Daphne is a fashionable teen who takes great pride in the way she looks. She is known for her red hair and purple dress. Daphne, out of all the other characters, is the one who is most likely to be kidnapped by the villain. She is depicted as coming from a wealthy family. When the gang splits up, she usually goes with Fred and Velma. Velma Dinkley View Family Members Phrase: "Jinkies!", "My glasses! I can't see without my glasses!" Description: Velma is the brains of the gang. She always figures out who the villain is in the end. She is known for wearing an orange sweater and glasses, which she seems to lose a lot. When the gang splits up, Velma usually joins Fred and Daphne, though occasionally, she goes with Scooby and Shaggy. Mystery Machine Description: Though the Mystery Machine is not a character, it is just as important and we felt it needed to be on the profile page. The Mystery Machine is what the gang uses to get everywhere they need to go. It breaks down a lot , especially when there is a mystery to solve, but it always gets fixed in the end. Fred is usually the driver, though sometimes Shaggy drives.
