Vivian Porter

**Vivian Francis Porter** is a scientist and a noted robotics
authority. However she found it difficult to be taken seriously as a
scientist since she looked more like a supermodel than a scientist. She
was suspected of stealing a project from the Middleton Space Center, but turned out to be framed by Dr. Fen. In the end she was offered a job by Dr. James Possible.[1]

## Physicality

### Appearance

Vivian has long, blonde hair and blue eyes. Her skin is a fair color and she has a mole right above her lips.

## Personality

Because
 she was used to being disregarded and underestimated in her profession,
 Vivian grew to be very defensive, and especially aggressive toward
anyone who refused to recognize her intelligence. She built Oliver at
least partially so something of hers could receive the credit that she
deserved all along.[1]

## Abilities

﻿Vivian
 was a noted robotics authority who designed robots for the Space
Center, and had written several papers on the subject. These robots were
 equipped with advanced technology, such as artificial intelligence and
self-preservation programs that allowed them to adapt to any situation.[1]

## Biography

﻿Vivian was a lab assistant﻿ to Dr. Fen,
 a colleague of James Possible. At one point she left the Space Center.
Dr. Fen said she was fired, James thought she resigned. When a robot
that Dr. Fen was working on was stolen from the Middleton Space Center,
Vivian was the first suspect. When Kim approached her at the underground
 robot rumble, Vivian firmly stated she did not steal the robot, as did
her boyfriend, Oliver. Kim and Ron however, did find the robot at the
rumble when they investigated the place after hours and returned it to
the Middleton Space Center.

Back home, Kim learned that the robot was not designed by Dr.
Fen, but by one V.F. Porter. At the Space Center, she confronted Dr. Fen
 with this knowledge, in the presence of both Vivian and Oliver. There
it was revealed Oliver is a robot and that Dr. Fen was a fraud. His
former lab assistant, Vivian, was the brains behind the robots: V.F.
Porter turned out to be Vivian Francis Porter. She built Oliver as a
cover, because her colleagues could not accept that someone as pretty as
 herself was a brilliant scientist. When Dr. James Possible learned of
this, he offered Vivian a job at the Space Center, which Vivian happily
accepted.[1]

## Relationships

### Friends

Vivian
 liked Dr. James Possible as a colleague. She said he was nice. It can
be assumed that she enjoyed working with him since he offered her Fen's
job, especially since he accepted her for what she was: an intelligent
young woman who just happened to be very beautiful.[1]

Vivian was respected among the robot rumble members. In fact,
through her mechanical boyfriend Oliver, she founded the robot rumble.[1]

### Enemies

Vivian strongly disliked Dr. Fen, because he stole her work and took credit for it. [1]

She disliked academia in general because they could not take someone who looked like her seriously as a scientist.

## Paraphernalia

### Equipment

"Oliver"
 is a robot built by Vivian and made to appear as her boyfriend and a
robotics expert so that she could have an outlet to show her genius.

Vivian's Artificial Intelligence Robot was built by her for an
unknown purpose but given her then unemployed state she may have just
built it for the Robot Rumble.
