Doktor Klasna-- she's nuts. nuts but brilliant in a sort of crazy way. Miss Minka Vladimir Illyich Klasna is a Soviet Expatriate mad scientist specializing in robotic technology and stealth EVERYTHING. Owing a few favors to the owner of Club Propaganda, favorite hangout of the Iron Curtain, Minka began building the team giant robots. however, the commies' longtime adversaries, the Vice Squad and the Furious Truckstop Waitresses caught word of it, and began constructing their own mechs in secret to combat the red scare. what ensued was one of the very first robot roller derby games. now that they all compete together under the Giant Robot Rollerderby League Federation (usually known as GRRLFed), Klasna repairs and oversees construction of all new mecha. while VICE picks up police surplus 'bots and FTW enlists the aid of trucker, mechanic, and robot enthusiast Billy Bobtimus Prime, they all eventually go to the doctor for random upgrades, tweaks, and general mayhem-inducing stuff. she keeps a small room in the back corner of the main hangars to stay in whenever there's a big game about to start. along with the small, hovering assistant lab bots, Doctor Klasna has a large, six-legged beetle robot that carries her tools. when not in use, it docks in her quarters.
