I drew this one year ago, when I was listening to Expedition 33's musics, not knowing what the story was about.

Got a sensory slug today!!! Hid name is Klaude (live slug reaction)

Empress Velo XXVII, the ruler of the galaxy (and racer of racers)! Unlike her main dimensional counterpart, Empress V. is actually quite tall for a Velonian! As such, though she does wear a robotic suit sometimes, she makes no attempt to hide her true identity. Her Citadel is located on an asteroid shaped like her undisguised face, rather than her disguise (this also carries over to Terra's largest moon, which still has a face on it even in the Tawnaverse. Why? Because I thought it was funny).

Naturally since in this universe, Crash & Coco are out of the picture, Velo sets her sights on Tawna instead. Much more inclined to fight Velo head-on, Tawna puts up quite a fight against the empress, even outside the race track! Tawna likes to call her 'Evie', a nickname Velo absolutely cannot stand (which is why Tawna keeps calling her that, LOL).

Power-wise, Velo is about on the same level as Tawna and Tropy, but this is only if you count her mech's power level; without it she's about as strong as Cortex... which is to say, not at all, but I guess still stronger than the main dimension's Velo without his suit? She does, however, hold an INSANE amount of influence over her galaxy, much like her main dimension counterpart!
