Name: Bellatrix Olympus - Romus - Draken. (Romus on the roster.)
Alias: Trixie shortened, Lady Atalanta on social media and her helmet art. (Named after an Ancient Greek figure linked to racing)
Team: Nordic
Gender: Female
Age: 24
:
5 '0, shorter but she claims it helps her at high G, she takes after her family with bright gold eyes like one of her ancestors, shorter height and is athletic but not entirely slender. Red hair cut shorter to be practical for racing. She has visible signs of the trauma and efforts to allow her to live a normal life with major investment and protection from her family.
While her family name is Olympus she is Caucasian and from England, the family name was changed long before she was born by an ancestor obsessed with classical Greece and they just roll with it to date.
Her spine, shoulders, left arm, left ribs, part of hip and lower left leg are cybernetic augments, so she was grafted and updated as a very young child she had organically become totally natural to point people assume she is organic unless you see the metal down her back or she is without the advanced synthetic layers than conceal most of them.
She simply has never known being without them.
This was extreme, but her parents' hands were forced when a then young child Bellatix was diagnosed with a rare infection and severe complications happened. To save her quality of life a lot of replacements were made.
A fine mecadrote set hides in her spine, to help her when she was young and remained and improved as they kept innovating. It has an almost personality of its own at times, playful. These take the form of self supporting slender mechanical tentacles and capable of extremely fine motor functions and also contain a highly compacted maintenance and diagnostic programming for her augments.
The cutting edge technology is very effective, but it comes with multiple downsides in needing regular adjustment and self care.
She combined an idea based on an old pre century media, … Lady Croft mixed with Greek myth, and that's where she got her social media handles and brand.
Her personal style is usually casual, comfortable at home or in private settings, and letting the imitation camouflage that covers her limb augments rest and systems to diagnose and run maintenance. She is not afraid to show her augments in these settings, especially as they saved her life.
On the Grid and in public she plays up and acts the part to bolster her image and the approachable ease with her fans report. She is a driver in one of most elite sports but still remained casual, softer and tried to remain well put together but more like her fans, comfy boots, hoodys, leggings and such they wear. It helps to keep her grounded and fans relate.
Not to say she cannot dress up and her creepy holo DM hall of fame attest, the paparazzi holiday snaps added a few dozen more.
Separate to her racing persona once in full suit, helmet and the like when she becomes cold, calculating and a remorseless persistence hunter watching until its prey gives an opening.
Personality:
She is a quietly confident person and has taken a few knocks in life and spent far too long in rehabilitation or surgery as she grew older. Those knocks did not stop her and she was always a speed person, be it a bike, electric bike and training partly as a pilot before she found her true joy of racing. It took trying quite a few things and so to really find what suited me though.
Confident in many ways, but her art? Nope, never, totally remarried or scared about negative comments.
While ruthless on the racing track, able to charm social media like she was born to it and socially comfortable to turn even the worst situations around… Bellatrix still gets utterly scared when thrown off by a curve ball, still second guessing everything but manages to turn that fear into fuel, not a crippling collapse.
Part of making her a natural in racing anything, fear is always there, life and death run on a knife edge. But that fear to Bellatix is fuel.
Her social media presence is fairly new, small by some standards but steady and she has a regular fanbase that's loyal and regularly when able to holo streams everything from games to random chats as cooking, updates or as she takes runs etc. As a new reserve and fill in driver she never got the big slots or media opportunities. She does best to remember her most active fans by name and some detail. She almost wants to remain able to do so and not become huge on social media. Faceless.
Backstory: Her family is a sizable presence in the United Kingdom and Europe in their field. They currently produce high end metalo ceramic alloys, advanced fusions of metals and ceramic used in various purposes from extreme durable wedding rings to use by everyone from military contractors, automotive particularly racing hyper bearings, mono ceramic reinforced materials and parts and several of their unique products are rather rare and hard to manufacture.
They have changed and evolved, generations have passed, they have moved several times with the global economic and technological shifts. The company has managed to chart a very tricky course in rapidly changing and dangerous times, they are still here even if they did not always win.
Born into a family with resources did help but that does not guarantee your luck and your health. Both of those hit Bellatrix but her family never gave up on her and pulled their resources to aid them. These included cutting edge medical technology and augment neural linkage tech that had barely left the testing systems of military industry companies yet alone commercial use.
She grew up on the Welsh borders but her family was English from the south, the estate had fallen into their hands just prior to the dangerous era and the former castle site was rapidly transformed into a castle of the modern era. Its natural defences and fact it was so far out of the way allowed it to go for the most part entirely unnoticed. Its true shield from the dangers of the time.
The area was not always kind, cold, wet, but it was safe and quiet.
Racing was in her blood from an early age starting young on a human powered cycle to help her train balance and help her master body. Bellatrix soon rapidly graduated into motor powered racing starting with more basic forms, archaic but rapidly moved up into the higher and higher levels of racing.
She won 2 Under 16 championships, several awards including best new starter, top scoring first year, and one for a 100% clean season. She had talent but it was the challenge to find a team at all willing to give her a shot at moving up from wheeled to more advanced racing.
That break came with Blue sheep racing team's foundation level team, which was her first time in a higher level of racing. She won championship her second season at blue sheep and in her 3rd came in an entirely respectable 3rd after she missed 4 races due to an accident where her car suffered a major malfunction mid race and crashed hard.
Choosing not to go into the family business Bellatix took after several ancestors who all had a thing for racing, speed and pushing the limits. The family has dabbled into racing for over a century, flying, and other pursuits.
The changes in teams and end of the season gave them a chance to throw in a new driver and see what they could do. A few races was a far lower risk than the starting season. So Bellatrix managed to convince them to take the chance.

Likes: overly sweet coffee, night owl, getting out and about in race locations and seeing local cultures, local food.
Dislikes: Being put on the spotlight without warning, morning people, early starts and long meetings.
Other Information: Misses her cat greatly but cannot take him on tour. Mono, an orange cat with exactly 4 brain cells, 2 of those focused on getting belly rubs.
Collects “Lego” very much and has a whole wall dedicated to vintage and older sets that pre date her parents.

Racing DNA
Overview: A smooth and relentless driver, she is not the fastest but chooses to wear down her opponents, find their weakness, pressure them and exploit it. No race is won on 1 lap but the whole race. She is very observant and able to technically exploit a mistake.
Skills: She is a smooth racer and capable of driving multiple forms from wheeled, horses to being an unlicensed pilot who only completed basic flight. Those mixed skills give her an interesting perspective.
Also has a rather skilled painter though is embarrassed at times to show it off openly, she has kept it private but it eventually leaked to fans who added up based on backgrounds and other little details such as her nails and fingers.
Special Trait:
Success is not decided only on the pit and track. Numbers are meaningless unless you have real engagement. Bellatrix has a skill to be able to work a crowd, to engage and build strong rapport with individuals and smaller groups. The connections and interactions seem to stick with people longer term.
Though not the same scale of power as the bombastic charisma as some racers or effortless charm to woo whole stadiums to their cause like a hero of myth . She has a smaller but strongly loyal following as a racer.
Controversy :
Several rivals have made the claim about when she ran an illegal engine spec for several races on her championship run in the lower league advanced racing. The investigation cleared her and returned her points as it was decided they would not change the result and the illegal specs came from the engineering crew being updated with the wrong documents. The driver and team had no idea they were out of regulations until it was found in a surprise audit.
The points stood, however her rivals kept claiming she cheated that championship and would do it again if she could get away with it once before.l

Australia.
Bellatrix joined the season late in Australia replacing Bjorn at the last leg of races and was coming in from the Junior league competing for title and returning after a bad crash.
She qualified strongly even ahead of her experienced team mate and due to an engine failure, events conspired and the pack tightened up into a aggressive and tight racing with 4 pilots and under 1 second between them. She in the racing eventually managed to come in 10th, earning points in first race.
