She sold Ratchet five Gadgetron weapons, which he had used on his previous adventure, as well as the RYNO II.

The Help Matron has the appearance of an aged hotbot, as her attire and hair strongly resemble Gadgetron's HelpDesk Girl, though she is much larger and more plump. She describes herself as "old fashioned" and is touchy when Ratchet offers to repair her vacuum tube.
