Queen Vella, born Vella Vixen, known in Toontown originally as Blair Fawkes, is a main character in Revolution, and a recurring character in Contact. 
In terms of the series narrative, Vella is a fox from the Kingdom of Vulpus who arrived with five other Cartonians in "They Came From the North." She used the name Blair Fawkes originally. Later in the season, Blair was revealed as the sinister youngest daughter of the current Vixen Queen: Vella Vixen. She murdered her mother in "Into the Fire" and became Queen Vella. She is the last Vixen Queen, and the last monarch in Vulpus.

Blair made her first appearance in "They Came From the North" when she and five other Cartonians (Cale Metfin, Evelyn Quin, Jerockle Padraic, Rook James, Tick Hunter) arrived at the shores of Toontown by ship. Seeking asylum after a long journey from the Kingdoms, Blair and the others were shocked to find themselves arrested and hostilely received by the Toons. She was identified by the others as the leader of the group, and that thanks to her all six managed to escape the Vulpus Empire. Despite this, the Toons continued to regard her suspiciously. 
In "Outlanders," Blair had a conversation with Constance Miller about the reason for the Toon disdain for foxes. Constance read to her the Edict last seen in "Edicts of War," asserting that foxes are the superior species on the continent. Blair denied ascribing to the Edict's tenets, but Constance was unconvinced. 
The non-fox Cartonians were released to a house arrest program in "Welcome to Toontown," but Blair was forced to remain incarcerated due to the untrustworthy nature of the foxes, as described in the Diary of War. She was moved from the Docks to Toontown Central and was put in a cell near Clarabelle Cow. As soon as they were alone, Clarabelle demanded information about the Kingdom of Bovo. Blair asked to be moved to a different prison in "Truth Will Out," already irritated by Clarabelle. Her request was denied. She asked if she could help the Toons fight the Cogs, or if one of her friends could visit, but both answers were no. 
In "Revenge of the Lawbots," Blair and Clarabelle were both sprung from prison by the Lawbots. She was taken to Lawbot Headquarters in "This Too Shall Pass" and quietly watched as the District Attorney and Clarabelle plotted to extend Cog Nation northward to the Vixen Cliffs. After the DA and Clarabelle made plans to attack Toontown Central, she was forced to come along. 
The Cogs, District Attorney, Clarabelle, and Blair landed in the abandoned Speedway in "Split the Heavens." The District Attorney became distracted by the arrival of Alice Carver and attempted to re-kidnap her. Blair broke away from the group and ran for help, alerting Constance, Bradley, and Vidalia of Alice's plight. The four returned and tried to save Alice. The District Attorney died, and Blair was allowed to go find her friends. She later appeared on the roof of Toon Hall, where she pushed Clarabelle Cow to her death after finding the cow in the process of trying to murder Eileen Irenic. As such, Blair saved the lives of both Alice Carver and Eileen Irenic within one hour. 
Following the Deluge in "Song of the Siren," Blair was moved to house arrest under Alice Carver and Bradley Wolfe. She remained on good behavior, and was able to have a conversation with Eileen about the attack atop Toon Hall and her resolve to become an avowed member of Toon society. She and her Cartonian friends volunteered to staff the upcoming dinner cruise celebrations as a thank you to Toontown. 
On the Chipper's maiden voyage in "Wistful Oceans," Blair pulled Piggy Pie away from the event and took her on a lifeboat to shore, under the guise of a Toon Resistance emergency. As the lifeboat was halfway between the Docks and the ship, Blair and Tick Hunter stopped rowing. Blair told Piggy that Toontown should never have trusted a fox. Moments later, the Chipper exploded, killing nearly all onboard. 
In "Out of the Frying Pan," Blair's true name was revealed to be Vella Vixen. The youngest daughter of Queen Vixen XXXI, Vella was walking the portrait hall of the Rook of Vulpus with her mother months prior to her arrival in Toontown. The two learned that the heirs may have escaped centuries before. In the present, Vella ordered Piggy Pie under gunpoint to transport her, Rook, and Tick to safety. Piggy obliged. Vella had Piggy incapacitated and the three fled to an unknown location. It became clear that Vella and the Cartonians had come to Toontown to locate the heirs. At the end of the episode, Vella watched as the Armada of Vulpus rolled into port. 
The Armada arrived in "Into the Fire," much to the horror of the gathered Toons. After Vixen XXXI murdered Barnacle Barbara and was prepared to kill Constance Miller, Vella emerged from Piggy Pie's transport hole and shot the Queen, killing her. Vella crowned herself Queen Vella, breaking a centuries-long tradition of Vixen regnants. She appointed Constance as the first Colonial Governor of Toontown and demanded that she produce the heirs to Cartonia. Constance was unaware of this development, but upon learning the truth met with Eileen Irenic and Vella aboard The Imperial Conqueror. Vella explained to Constance and Eileen how they had managed to find Toontown and how her plan was to locate the heirs and bring them back to Cartonia. This would hopefully placate a rebellious group known as the Free, as home rule and autonomy would be established. The heirs were brought forth, and Vella permitted each to bring one guest with them. At the conclusion of the episode, the new Vixen Queen and the Toons set sail for Cartonia. 
=== Revolution ===
In "Aurora," Vella led the convoy of ships back to Vulpus. The Toons were briefly housed in the Rook of Vulpus, where they attended dinner with Vella and her family. Her three elder sisters, Varinna Vixen, Vestia Vixen, and Vyzanna Vixen, did not seem pleased with Vella. The Toons were carted off to Yefoxerinburg, where on live television Vella sentenced them to death. 
Twelve of the fourteen Toons survived in "Billow and Breeze," much to Vella's chagrin. She ordered them all to be found. Vella encountered internal resistance to her rule from her own sisters in "Common Sense." The three sisters were irate that Vella had usurped the crown from the eldest sister, Vyzanna Vixen. The sisters threatened Vella, so she murdered all three in cold blood, leaving only extended family as distant heirs to the throne. Vella affirmed her resolve to carry out the legacy of the Skulkisch Doktrin. 
Vella was shocked in "Night of Shattered Stone" when Skulksmarshall Tick Hunter returned to Vista with the extant Harmony Crown. She ordered Jewellia to hide the crown somewhere in the castle. 
Vella was finally able to locate three more of the missing Toons when Eileen Irenic, Mickey Elias, and Hyla Sensitive were discovered in Vannastadt. Hyla had been captured, and subsequently tortured by Czufran Monet to gain information on how Mickey and Eileen escaped. Enraged, Vella ordered Hyla to be burned at the stake in the courtyard of Vannazollern Castle. 
In "Hang Together," Vella sanctioned the continuation of the Obliteration, thus ordering the extinction of the crocodile and chicken species. She decided to make an exception for Rook, and not send him to the Eusuchian death camps, thus enabling him to be the final crocodile in Cartonia. 
In "Assailants Unknown," Vella went to the Mallardian vineyard and discovered the dead bodies of the Beckers, killed by Scuridian pirates.  
Flashbacks in "All the Queen's Men" showed how Vella grew close to Tick as they plotted the downfall of her mother. 
Vella launched a retaliatory attack on the Scuridian pirates in "Tarry Not the Final Quest" for their murder of the Beckers. She realized that ships were being protected by an unnatural maelstrom. She concluded that either Evelyn Quin or Cale Metfin survived the Chipper explosion. She also noticed that Rook James was acting strangely, unaware that he had gone to Eusuchia. In "Into a Land So Free," Vella's confusion over Rook's behavior continued, but she ultimately dismissed him. She questioned Macaw Kitt's loyalties after he allegedly warned the Toons in Antlerstag of a pending Free rescue. The Macaw affirmed his loyalty to the Vixen Queen, but only after Vella threatened to drop the Horizon Bomb over Psittancyna. 
After Cervidium's government collapsed in "For Tomorrow We Die," Vella ordered a military offensive into the kingdom to conquer the land. However, she was warned by Macaw Kitt that the Free's revolution was due to begin the next day. Vella therefore mobilized her troops, declaring war. 
Vella oversaw the beginning of the war effort in "Vulpus Aflame," preparing all of the empire for a major offensive against the Free. She and Rook made amends when he asked her why he was left out of the loop on the Eusuchian death camps. When she learned of Toontown's rebellion, Vella authorized use of the deadly Horizon Bomb over the town. Jewellia dressed her in a fiery war outfit, and was about to crown her with Vixen VII's diadem when Eileen Irenic and Usa Uhuru stormed into her chamber. Vella and Jewellia were seemingly caught unaware. Eileen charged Vella with murder, and shot her. 
However, the bullet did not strike Vella. In "Toontown Asunder," it was revealed that an invisible shield was lowered in the room, protecting Vella. The Queen attempted to gas Eileen and Usa to death, but was thwarted by Jewellia, who shed her disguise to reveal herself as Mata Hairy. She advanced on Vella and slit her throat, declaring "Death to Vulpus!" As Vella had no children and had killed her sisters, the line of succession was not firm. The ensuing chaos in the collapse of the government saw the abolition of the Vixen monarchy. Vella was therefore the last Queen of Vulpus. 
==Character==
===Namesake===
Vella's alternate surname has the same pronunciation as her species: fox. Her alias is named after Br'er Fox, the villain from Song of the South and the accompanying Splash Mountain ride. 
==Trivia==
*Blair is the first fox to arrive in Toontown. 
*Blair appears as a cat in her mugshot in the Contact intro because the Toontown Rewritten game does not have a fox species. However, in Toontown Corporate Clash, the fox species is available and so her mugshot was changed for the Wiki. 
*Vella's original name was going to be Vespa until the author remembered Princess Vespa from Spaceballs.
*Vella is the first main character to not have appeared in either seasons 1 or 2.
