Profile: Two separate robots with one mind. That is who Lobe is. Each bot represents two separate functions of his brain. One encompasses Lobe’s artistic side while the other is a physical representation of his scientific side.

In the past, before the start of the war, Lobe had established himself as the head of the Iaconian Mechaforensic Division. He accomplished great leaps in the study of the Cybertronian mind. During his tenure with Mechaforensics Lobe was responsible for finding a way to retrieve live data from the brain modules of dead Cybertronians. The feat caught the attention of the Functionist Counsel.

In the eyes of the Functionists Lobe’s revolutionary scientific breakthrough was worthy of its highest reward. His contribution for the betterment of the Cybertronian race, the scientist was declared alt mode- exempt. In conjunction with the reward, Lobe was made the head of the newly established Institute, a Senate facility whose purpose was to reprogram dissidents.

He ran the Institute and remained with the Iaconian Mechaforensic Division as its head during the Functionist regime.

The work performed with the Institute included Shadowplay, a horrific procedure used to alter the personality of Cybertronians. At times the use of the age-old custom of Empurata was also employed.

Soon after the war began Lobe sided with the Decepticons. The promise of plenty of leeway to perform his work was likely the selling point.

Abilities: Lobe’s field of scientific study was directed towards mnemosurgery, cerebrosurgery, brain dissection, Empurata and Shadowplay. He is able to rework a Cybertronian’s personality with relative ease molding them into whatever, or whomever, his superiors’ desire.

Being of the scientific class, Lobe is not well schooled in the art of battle. He carries concealed push daggers which he can utilize if confronted by an attacker in close proximity. Lobe would prefer to avoid a close encounter which is why he carries a standard laser pistol. Using the weapon keeps him at a safe distance making it easier to “hit and run”.

Along with his daggers and pistol, Lobe can also use the needles in his fingertips as rudimentary weapons. But these would be a last resort as their use would require his assailant to be too close for his comfort.

To compensate for his lack of fighting skills Lobe is very maneuverable. He’s lean and limber making his escapes quick and quiet.

Lobe was declared alt mode-exempt…he has retained his alt mode but uses it rarely.

Weaknesses: Lobe is not a warrior. He has little knowledge in the way of fighting. He is capable of defending himself but not for very long. He is likely to find an easy escape route than pick a fight. Since his alt mode is only useful in a lab or surgical room he is quite slow as he can only rely on walking or running to get where he needs to go.
