vFeatured Article
Flame is a disgraced Autobot scientist, and with fairly good reason. His brilliance is overshadowed by an obliviousness to risk, as he stubbornly pursues his grandiose ideas. His sole concern with other beings is whether they think he's right, and if they don't he only becomes more obsessed with accomplishing his goals, no matter who or what must be sacrificed. This has driven him to an eons-long reclusion spent secretly enacting his master plan. On the rare occasion when he actually has contact with others, his mannerisms are flamboyant and histrionic, and he is never without either a grin or a grimace.
He transforms into a "firetank" with a high-powered flame thrower and a very fetching red, yellow, and orange colour scheme. Also he has a zombie army, so try not to die around him.
