Early Life
Victoria's father was Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, the fourth son of King George III and Queen Charlotte. Until 1817, King George's only legitimate grandchild was Edward's niece Princess Charlotte of Wales, the daughter of George, Prince Regent (who would become George IV). Charlotte's death in 1817 precipitated a succession crisis that brought pressure on Edward and his unmarried brothers to marry and have children. In 1818, the Duke of Kent married Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, a widowed German princess with two children-Carl and Feodora-by her first marriage to Emich Carl, 2nd Prince of Leiningen. Her brother Leopold was Charlotte's widower and later the first king of Belgium. Victoria was born in May 1819 at Kensington Palace in London and was the Duke and Duchess of Kent's only child.
As a young lass, Victoria attended the Popit Academy, graduating alongside Larry Da Vinci and Herbert Higginbotham.
Early Inventions
Victoria's first invention was the Sackbot, an artificial life-form baked from cake. The first batch was baked with too much sugar, causing them to gain sentience. She gave them a village outside of her country home in Darkwood. She later had the Sackbots test her next invention: the Brain Crane.
When she then tried to improve upon the Brain Crane, she accidentally created the Cakeling, which proceeded to kidnap her. Luckily, the Sackbots came to save her. Afterword, she refused to experiment with telekinetic devices ever again.
Instead, she focused on amplifying physical strength by creating the Grabinators.
The Negativitron Crisis
Following the appearance of the Negativitron, her various creations where turned into the first Meanies, and the second batch of Sackbots where stolen. After a failed attempt to turn off her brainwave machine, she escaped in her private train.
When her train broke down, she met with Larry Da Vinci, who had just recently graduated a new member of the Alliance of Craftworld. She was convinced the corruption of her laboratory was due to her own faults, just like the Cakeling incident, but Da Vinci convinced her that it wasn't. Victoria then led Da Vinci and the graduate back to her laboratory.
After retaking control of the train, navigating the corrupted gardens, and getting to the cake lab, the Sackthing managed to turn off the brainwave machine. However, after turning it off, it reawakened as a giant spider monster, and Sackthing had to destroy it.
My beautiful Machine... Oh I just knew she wouldn't survive, my inventions never do.

My little sponge finger, this is no time for crying over spilled icing.

It looks like your Sackbots are all being taken to -
|
- The Factory Of A Better Tomorrow! To the Factory!
|
Oh Larry, I'm afraid I have to stay and clear up.
|
Won't you come with us, my pineapple upsidedown cake?
|
No no, I can't just leave this mess.
|
Well, Sack Thing, come with me.
|
The Alliance is going on a rescue mission!
|
After the Alliance's Huge Spaceship is taken down by a large and convoluted attack robot, she arrived to help, suggesting they seek the help of Dr. Herbert Higginbotham. Once Huge Spaceship is repaired, she joins the rest of the Alliance in their trip to the home of the heart of the Negativitron, helping fight it.
University Work
After defeating the Negativitron, Victoria went on to become a professor at the Popit Academy, along with Larry Da Vinci.
Ethical Concerns
Victoria's work on creating the Sackbots has been compared to the bizarre and unethical Stitchling experiments in Carnivalia which resulted in the creation of the Hollows.
