Venus

**Venus the Flirty Ocean-Going Naval Tug** is a supporting character in the SeventyVerse's TUGS spinoff series. She worked for the Navy, before she was sold to Captain Star and is currently the twelfth member of the Star Fleet. In the *TUGS Survival AU*; Venus becomes the sixth member of the Z-Stacks after Zeus is fired for treason.

## Backstory

Venus was part of the Navy, and assigned to bringing in ships. Because one of Venus' crewmembers had german heritage, she was fluent in that language. Venus often worked with fellow ocean-going tug, Hercules, and the duo worked together to save Captain Star. Venus was offered a place in the Star Fleet after this, but she politely declined the offer.

In 1942, Venus was assigned to fill in for Hercules after he, Big Mac, Ten Cents, Zorran, Zip and Zak signed up for the Navy; Hercules was delighted to see her again. Venus also left a positive impact of the tugs of both the Stars and Z-Stacks, as well as the Salvage team. In 1943, after the tragic deaths of Zorran and Captain Zero, she joined the Star Fleet. This was so she could get to know her sister, Zip, better, and because she had gained a crush on Big Mac.

In the TUGS Survival AU, Venus joins the Z-Stacks after Zeus was fired and became their new number 6.

## Relationships

### Hercules

Venus was part of the Navy in the same regiment as Hercules. Being Ocean-going tugs, they were often assigned on bringing in ships together. They were both smitten with each other, and many assumed they would be an item, but they broke off their crush due to WW1. Hercules also supports Venus' new crush: Big Mac.

### Zip

Venus was surprised to discover that Zip was her little sister. At this, she immediately took the Z-Stack switcher under her wing. One of the reasons for Venus moving to Bigg City was to get to Zip better. If her little sister is ever threatened, Venus will defend her without a moment's pause as Zeus and Oliver can attest.

### Zeus

Venus and Zeus never got on due to the latter's obnoxious attitude. Venus' resentment only grew when Zeus was revealed to a Nazi sympathizer as well as Hans and Otto's informant during the the First World War, even saying that Zeus didn't deserve to be named after the king of the Greek Gods. When Zeus tried to attack Zip, Venus defended her sister against him

### Penny

Venus has taken Penny under her wing as a little sister, despite having no relation to each other. She's one of few that can tolerate her overhyperness.

### Zion

Venus knew Zion from the Navy and both worked together to help the Pearl Harbour victims. Unfortunately, she witnessed Zion's death. To make matters worse, she didn't know Zion was her brother until she spoke to Zip several months later.

In the TUGS Survival AU, Venus was able to get to know Zion better as he joined Lucky's Yard.

## Romance

### Big Mac

Big Mac has blushed immediately upon seeing Venus, and called her 'beautiful'. (Details regarding UFO and O.J. the Movie Star to be added)

## Personality

Venus is serious and hard working, but is very compassionate and on the flirtatious side. She deeply cares for all those in her fleet, from fellow ocean-going tugs to switchers. Venus is also very dedicated to her cause in the Navy, only deciding to join the Stars after the war was over.

## Technical Details

### Livery

Venus was originally painted in the Navy's grey livery and wears a blue beret hat. When joining the Star Fleet, she was repainted in their yellow and red livery and given the Number "12". She also flies the Star Flag.

In the TUGS Survival AU, Venus is repainted in the Z-Stacks' maroon and black with the Number "6" on her stack. She has the Z-Stacks flag.

## Trivia

* The preferred voice actress for Venus is Kathleen Delaney, who voiced Rouge the Bat from *Sonic X*.
	+ Originally, her preferred voice actress was Gal Gadot, who portrayed Diana Prince from the *DC Extended Universe*. This was changed as it is felt Rouge's voice would suit Venus more. Gal Gadot's voice will be reused for Constance instead.
* Venus' worst nightmare is any country falling to tyranny, which is why she stuck with the Navy for so long.
* Venus replacing Zeus in the Z-Stacks in the *TUGS Survival AU* sees her as a mirror version to him: Zeus was boastful, belittling and careless, while Venus is humble, loving and serious.
