Profile: Side Burn is a born exhibitionist; if its loud, fast, or haphazard, you can't bet he's tried it, then bragged about it at a local Energon pub where he can often be found. There he likes to drink and swap war stories, often to impress some nearby femmes. Occasionally the war stories he tells are even true.

Side Burn is prone to distraction, uninterested in rules, interested in speed, and super interested in females. These traits combined get Side Burn into all sorts of trouble.

Side Burn joined the Autobots confident that his raw speed would help turn the tide of the war. While that hasn’t happened yet he is confident its only a matter of time. In the mean time he tries to live life in the fast lane, having a good time off duty and fighting hard in battle. While his joking and easygoing nature might bother some, in combat there are few Autobots braver and more daring then he.

Abilities: Side Burn is equipped with a special ‘Spark Engine’ that operates like a controlled rocket. It can be deployed in his car mode to give him a large boost to his speed. In his robot mode it can be used as a flamethrower or, when attached to his back, as a jetpack. Speed is his primary asset, ability and pride. In battle he will race ahead to engage the enemy, making first contact with them and trying to soften them up or take out key targets before the bulk of Autobot forces arrive.

In combat he prefers hit and run tactics that take full advantage of his speed and maneuverability. When forced into stand up combat he is a decent shot with his plasma rifle. In melee combat he can exchange his left hand for a deadly buzzsaw.

Weaknesses: Side Burn is prone to distraction, particularly by females. While he is quite friendly and outgoing, his boisterous nature can rub others the wrong way. He will occasionally fabricate war stories to impress femmes which can lead him into trouble when they are found out.
