XFD Commentator & Presenter
An established professional sports commentator for almost 30 years, becoming a well-regarded and respected person within the XFD world.
Konnie has an upbeat, quick-witted personality that can easily get the crowd going, and famously coined the phrase, “Let’s Get Shreddin’!”, which has become a staple catchphrase.
Throughout her career, she has commentated for both teen and adult brackets and currently co-hosts major regional and worldwide championships with newcomer, Rakki. She also presented the legendary tournament Tracy and her team won.
Konnie dabbled in XFD racing as a teenager, but became enthralled with the production side of things when taken backstage one day. Once she was old enough, she quickly set aside her racing career and applied for a staff job. Over the years, Konnie worked in XFIRE Gear repair, first-aid, camera operations, and the like. Gradually making her way into presenting once higher-ups witnessed her XFD knowledge and natural presence in front of the cameras.
After her first show, she became an instant celebrity.
She’s happily married with 3 children and 1 grandchild. She tries not to force her beloved baby pictures on the audience, but if anyone mentions her family, her professionalism melts away, causing the control room to quickly cut away to ads.

Co-Host
She immediately saw the potential in Rakki and convinced staff members to bring him on board. Even to go so far as to make him her new co-host after seeing how well he did during test runs.
She does have to quickly correct his mistakes on air, but truly revels in his intensity and skilled commentating. She doesn’t like him calling her boss, though. Konnie gets her own back by frightening him with scary crime stories she listens to.
Co-Worker?
Konnie does secretly question why DASHY is still allowed to cause trouble, but given her popularity chooses not to interfere. No one has been hurt…yet.
DASHY will try her best to tease Konnie but immediately gets scolded every time, creating the narrative that Konnie is the only one she can’t mess with.
She has naturally played into the role, despite her concerns.

XFD Commentator & Presenter
Being a newcomer to commentating, Rakki quickly gained popularity for his incredibly charismatic personality and goofy nature. He occasionally makes mistakes but has a heart of gold and passion for presenting and entertaining, so he doesn’t get in too much trouble. He loves to greet audiences with “Hey XFIRE Freaks!” and when fired up, bursts into melody while commentating.
No one has ever seen him without his visor on, making him mysterious to some fans.
He’s also a skilled DJ under the name, “DJ Tempo”. At certain XFD events or after parties, you can usually spot DJ Tempo performing on stage.
Rakki has no XFD racing experience himself, as he’s got terrible balance. But has been a fan of the sport his whole life as his uncle was in a fairly popular team when he was younger. His parents would usually find him with his face glued to the TV, yelling nonsense, pretending he was a commentator.
Even into adulthood, Rakki would be spotted within XFD crowds, annotating the race on his own accord, annoying fellow attendees. It would occur so much that security had to repeatedly escort him off the premises for disrupting races. It wasn’t until Konnie spotted his potential that he was invited to try out presenting for real.
💗Likes: Music & DJing - Travelling - Carbonated Drinks
✖️Dislikes: Instructions - Heights - The Supernatural
🔥Strengths: Charismatic - Exuberant - Passionate
🚫Habits: Forgets names - Gets Lost Easily - Oblivious

Co-Host
He never imagined becoming Konnie's co-host, let alone so early in his career. It does make him buckle under the pressure sometimes, but he’s honoured to be working alongside someone he admires, considering her his mentor.
Rakki routinely makes sure Konnie gets home safely when leaving the set, and loves to gift her vintage vinyls from her youth.
Co-Worker?
Rakki has unfortunately become DASHY’s new personal punching bag.
He’s quite oblivious to DASHY’s torment and thinks she’s playing around and being friendly, when she’s clearly bullying him. He’ll put up with the occasional pain if it means viewers are enjoying their interactions, though.
