[edit] Appearance
She wears a pink shirt and black trousers. She has large eye-glasses and curly hair in an afro-style. Her name is a parody of Victoria Principal. In addition, she speaks with a thick Minnesotan accent, though as of the later seasons, she seems to have lost the accent.
For special occasions, as seen in the awards ceremony scene in The Death Camp of Tolerance, she wears a indescribable outfit with a lavender top and a black skirt.
[edit] Character
Principal Victoria is not described often personality-wise but appears to be more intelligent and rational than most adults; in Go God Go she informs Mrs. Garrison knows too little about evolution to teach it and replaces her with Richard Dawkins.
In Breast Cancer Show Ever, she is revealed to be a strong feminine rights activist as she reveals to Wendy that she is a seven year Breast Cancer survivor and encourages Wendy to fight for what she believes in:
Principal Victoria: I see. I've noticed all the things you've done for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Did you know I'm a breast cancer survivor?
Wendy: Ma'am?
Principal Victoria: I was diagnosed seven years ago. Cancer is... pure evil. It is a fat little lump that needs to be... destroyed. When there is a cancer, you have to "fight" it. You can't reason with cancer, you can't wish it away. Cancer doesn't play by the rules, so neither can you.
Wendy: My... parents said that if I fight-
Principal Victoria: And you can't listen to what anybody else tells you. You have to be willing to give up everything, because the cancer will take everything. Do you understand?
Wendy: Yes ma'am!
Principal Victoria: When you have cancer you fight, because it doesn't matter if you beat it or not. You refuse to let that fat little lump make you feel powerless!
In this same episode, she shows contempt for Eric Cartman and compares him directly to Cancer. It is extremely unlikely that she punished Wendy for fighting Cartman, and if she did she would have punished Cartman as well for provoking Wendy.
Its hinted in the episode, Toliet Paper, by Josh that she had a physically and sexually abusive mother who, "Spanked her tighs with cold cuts and stuck umbrellas up her ass." This has not been confirmed but because he was able to correctly predict Officer Barbrady's own abuse this is plausible.
[edit] Murderess
In the episode Sexual Harassment Panda, she confessed to having killed a man, despite the fact that the trial in which she made this proclamation had nothing to do with whatever she may be guilty of. However, she explained, "I hit him over the head and cut up the body. I tried to burn it, but it wouldn't burn! I put the legs in the garbage bags and put the torso under the bridge. I had to do it!!" whereupon she then burst into tears.
[edit] Homophobia
In the episode 4th Grade, after much persuasion from the public, and hiding away from the world except Ms. Choksondik, Mr. Garrison finally comes out of the closet and admits that he is gay. Principal Victoria and Mr. Mackey express their joy over his new-found self-esteem. But when he asks for his job back, Principal Victoria merely laughs and says, "Oh I'm sorry, we don't hire gay people". This either implies that she is homophobic, or that she is indeed following a set law which states the above, although due to the fact that Mr. Garrion is seen teaching again in his next appearance and the fact she laughed straight after saying this, could mean that she was just joking. This is ironic as she is known along with Sheila Brosfolvski and Mayor McDaniels to have slept with Eric Cartman's mother Liane. This leads to the possibility that she might be his mother and from that his need for order and authority. This appears unlikely seeing as she suggested to Wendy to beat up Eric. However this dosnt lead to the fact that she is a lesbian, in the episode "About Last Night, her husband" is shown briefly and in a comentary about that show it is said that that is Victoria's husband's first appearance up to then people could of thought she was gay... she even slept with chef in "It Hit's the Fan"... perhaps she may be somewhat alittle bisexual but many adults in southpark are as well.
