Ramulus

Profile: Ramulus was unceremoniously brought online when his stasis pod crashed in a mountainous region of ancient Earth. Assuming he had been abandoned by Optimus Primal and the crew of the starship Axalon, Ramulus survived by his own means until he crossed paths with Primal Prime and a ragtag group of guerilla fighters. An intuitive scout and pathfinder, Ramulus quickly became one of Primal Prime's most dependable warriors. Normally quite calm and congenial among his comrades (often to the point of biting sarcasm), Ramulus has been known to be highly aggressive and indignant when provoked. In combat situations, this usually becomes a problem only for his opponents - though their contempt for his behavior is likely to be the last thing on their minds.

Abilities: In beast mode, Ramulus' heavily armored skull and massive horns enable him to decimate nearly any standing structure in his path. In robot form, vanadium alloy razor blades mounted on each of his wrists allow Ramulus to carve through most forms of Cybertronian battle armor. His most powerful weapon, which he affectionately refers to as his .Slagmaker cannon is actually a modified high-yield tachyon gun that can effectively melt any object in its path. Ramulus' internal navigation circuitry is a cut above that of his comrades, enabling him to swiftly and precisely interpret landscape features - augmenting his already impressive abilities as a scout.

Weaknesses: Due to chronic stress fractures in Ramulus' laser core, his Spark frequently generates disruptive ion pulses that can temporarily incapacitate many of his internal systems. If he is excessively aggravated or harassed, Ramulus can be easily goaded into taking unnecessary personal risks.
