Personality[]
Overall, she is a ruler, and a little snappy when it comes to attitude. She has no regard for human life or her own drones.
Meet the Drivers Description[]
"Gelorum, the beautiful and diabolical leader of the Racing Drones, has stolen the Wheel Of Power from Hot Wheels City. Half robot and half human android, she and her Racing Drones threaten to become the most powerful drivers in the universe."[1]
Biography[]
After the events of World Race, Gelorum was repaired her eye. She was able to prevent Dr. Tezla from getting the Wheel of Power in Ignition. Later, she captured Kadeem when he fell off the track in the Storm Realm, and eventually turned him into a drone. In the Ultimate Race, we learn that she and the Drones have captured Wylde. She tortured him, and turned his left arm into a Drone's arm. Wylde was then forced to give her the location of the Acceledrome. She then led the attack against Dr. Tezla, and got all of the Accelechargers, planning to kill Tezla when she returned. She then went through the portal to meet the Accelerons, and Vert went after her (despite the drones attempting to stop him). When they see the Accelerons, she then discards her human disguise and turned into her true form to try to attack Vert, but the Acceleron stopped her from doing so and throws her far away. This is the last time we see Gelorum.
Appearance[]
Human Form[]
In her human disguise form, Gelorum is a approximately 1.60m feet woman with white long hair, she has divisions on her face that splits her face into 6 parts, her left eye is a organic black eye and her right is a cybernetic and glowing green eye, a reminiscent scar of her helicopter accident in World Race. She wears a "collar" with green Racing Drones letters appearing on them. She wears a black dress and her left arm is a thin, weak-like Drone arm. This form hides her true, monstrous form.
True Form[]
In her true form, Gelorum's human disguise comes off and she grows significantly taller, becoming larger than the 8 foot tall RD-L1. Her lights are lime-green instead of the base green color, her head is completely different from the other Racing Drones, she has 2 visors/lines on a "V" shape one on top of the other. She doesn't has a visible mouth and on top of her head there is a species of crown. She has 8 gigantic metal spikes coming off her back and, since she doesn't need to blend with her car, she doesn't have the metal appendages RD-L1 and RD-S1 have. She has the Racing Drones logo on the middle of her chest and on the front of her shoulders. We haven't seen her power in this form, but it can be speculated that she could easily rip a car in half, since the inferior RD-L1 could destroy a car in a matter of seconds.

Trivia[]
- According to series creator Jeff Gomez, Gelorum was named after the surname of a girl he had a crush on in high school.[2]
- If Gelorum would've made it to the sphere without Vert, the Acceleron would still punish her as the test for the Ultimate Race is the driver's own skills, not the accelechargers.
- However, the audience can have every right to question the Accelerons. The purpose of the Drones is to win the race, so in order to win, they need to find the most efficient solution: using the Accelechargers. So it can be justified that Gelorum (and every other Drone) can only do what she was programmed to do (win the race, not mastering the skills needed) and is still punished for it.
