Trixie's relentless pursuit of world domination becomes evident in her actions, notably when she ordered the destruction of Alpha Academy to erase any traces of the Shadow Committee. She demonstrates a ruthless streak by swiftly disposing of individuals who outlive their usefulness, such as Zile Zazic after his failure to procure the Mach 6 prototype, and even loyal members like Handles Mustache.
Biography[]
Sixteen years ago, Trixie Tredwell was a devoted mother to her sons, X and Jr., until a tragic racing accident claimed her father's life, leaving her physically and emotionally scarred. Blaming her husband, Speed Sr., for the accident, she inherited her father's multinational corporation and formed the Shadow Committee to seek revenge.
Speed Sr. collaborated with Trixie's father, Toughie Treadwell, on a Mach 6 prototype, funded by Toughie himself. Despite Speed's warnings about its readiness, Toughie insisted on unveiling it at an upcoming race, leading to a tragic accident during the final lap. Both Speed and Toughie raced, but the prototype malfunctioned, causing Toughie to lose control. Speed attempted to save him, but the car crashed into Trixie, leaving her injured. Despite physical recovery, Trixie's demeanor darkened, blaming Speed for her father's death. Using her father's company, she formed the Shadow Committee, prompting Speed to protect their sons by disappearing from her reach.
This forced Speed Sr. to protect their sons by taking them into hiding. However, after their sons traveled back in time to prevent the accident, Trixie returned to her loving role as a wife and mother, now living happily with her family in the new timeline.
