Mrs. Von Drake is the off-screen mother of Ludwig Von Drake. She lives near Ludwig's laboratory, and Ludwig has to keep down the noise of his inventions so as to not disturb his mother. Like Ludwig, she speaks with an Austrian accent, and makes use of the expression "kooky". She is voiced by Tress MacNeille in Mickey Mouse Works and April Winchell in House of Mouse.
Mrs. Von Drake's heirloom chinaware
In "Time Reverser", Ludwig destroys his mother's priceless heirloom chinaware, to demonstrate how his time-reversing machine can reverse the damage, by traveling back in time to before the incident occurred. The invention, however, goes awry, and, left with only the shattered remains of his mother's tableware, Ludwig quickly goes out of his way to find some glue.
In Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse (in a segment that was later re-used in "Pete's Christmas Caper"), she is heard shouting at Ludwig again, during his lecture on "The Science of Santa" for stealing the cookie jar.
According to Wiener Schnitzel Woes (Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #732), Mrs. Von Drake lives in Austria, and airmails her son one of her "Wiener Schnitzel à la Weltschmerz" dishes every week when her son is teaching in Duckburg.
She is first seen in a flashback in a 2010 comic, alongside her husband.[1]
