Profile: Before the Great War broke out, Firewire was one of the many victims of the Senate’s caste system. A member of the lowest social class because of her alternate mode, she was treated as a thing more than another living mechanoid, which was the common plight of her class. When rumors of an uprising against the Senate and the caste system reached her, Firewire was all too eager to join forces with the Decepticons. Since the day that she joined, she has always fully committed all of her faculties to the Decepticon cause.

Firewire is a very prideful and very eccentric mechanoid, partially a byproduct of her extraordinary intelligence. When she joined the Decepticons, she did not even have a name – a result of the discrimination against her – so, she dubbed herself Firewire. She idolizes Solus Prime and strives to become like her, a great inventor. However, she mostly just tinkers in her spare time with gizmos and gadgets that have little purpose. She also possesses the rare quality of honesty, which often leads to some foot-in-vocal-processor moments and can be hazardous to her health.

Abilities: As an analyst, Firewire uses her intellect to systematically break down a great bulk of information into its smallest forms and sort it by how it is connected with every other bit of information. People, places, and events are linked together by connections, which Firewire has to ferret out. In addition to analyzing, sorting, and modeling the information, Firewire also uses her network of connections to predict possible future events with some degree of accuracy.

Firewire doesn’t see much of combat, but is able to defend herself via her projector mounted photon burst rifle. Although not suited for combat, Firewire has a fiery, defiant spirit and will keep fighting in any way that she can down to the bitter end. In addition to the photon burst rifle, Firewire is equipped with an optical distortion project, which acts as her projector in alternate mode. It can bend light waves, and disorients the vision of anyone caught in it as well as affecting balance and causing a degree of motion sickness.

Weaknesses: Firewire is very small in stature as compared to other Cybertronians and ill-suited to combat. She also practices honesty, which can land her in some trouble at times.
