More dirt about yourself:
Velvet Hammer had an easy transition into roller derby. Her job as a fireworks engineer allows use of her explosive powers out on the rink. She’s a tough woman who skates smooth and uses her atomic thighs to knock down anyone who gets in her path of destruction. Beware; she’ll leave you in a cloud of dust.
