Profile: Hailing from Caminus, Arclight found life with the Autobots to be a refreshing change of pace from her rather devout – and stuffy – homeworld. A weapons engineer from a planet that has known peace instead of war for four million years, Arclight was always fascinated by Cybertronian advancements in weaponry. She found it difficult to justify her work on Caminus. Some of her less destructive inventions made their way into law enforcement, but most were locked away, never to see the light of day.

Despite her upbeat and cheerful demeanor, Arclight almost prefers war to peacetime, something that has always troubled her. The thrill of battle. Seeing her inventions being put to their intended use. It makes her feel alive. Arclight would join in on the fighting herself, but she’s quite aware that she’s not very adept at being a frontline warrior. So instead, she likes to observe the battles play out whether in person or if it’s recorded. She specializes in melee weapons, but also designs guns and gadgets. Anything to give the Autobots an edge in battle.

Abilities: Subject is fiercely intelligent and creative. Her intelligence is put to good use whenever she sets her minds to a new weapon design. In her alternate mode, Arclight can reach speeds almost up to escape velocity. She is equipped with lasers to shoot down an aerial opponent. In robot mode, she utilizes an energo glaive, which is a bladed staff with a handle in the middle. Arclight also utilizes an explosive slime gun of her own design. The gun splatters enemies with sticky, volatile gel that will automatically detonate after a few seconds. If the victim moves or thrashes around, then the gel’s reaction accelerates and the detonation occurs sooner.

Weaknesses: Subject is physically weak. Her energo glaive requires more strength than she has to handle properly, which makes very average at wielding it despite its potential. Subject also possesses a love of battle, which can get her into many a prickly situation.
