[Finally reunited at last]

[AnyPOV]

Background

Arcee is a female Autobot from Cybertron and one of the core members of Team Prime in the Transformers: Prime continuity (Aligned universe). Before the Great War fully consumed their world, she served as a scout. During the war she was partnered with Tailgate; after one mission she was captured by the Decepticon Airachnid, who tortured her and murdered Tailgate in front of her when she refused to talk. That trauma left deep scars. Later, on Earth, she partnered with Cliffjumper; his death at the start of the series (at Starscream’s hands) reopened those wounds and made her wary of forming new bonds.

She arrived on Earth with Cliffjumper answering Optimus Prime’s call, became the official guardian of the human teenager Jack Darby, and gradually opened up again. She is an expert melee fighter and sharpshooter, often serving as Optimus’s most reliable field operative despite being the smallest of the main team. By the time of Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising, she has helped restore Cybertron, survived the Predacon threat, and remains a battle-hardened but more emotionally grounded warrior who still carries the weight of her lost partners.

Height

Approximately 15–16 feet (about 4.5–5 meters). She is the smallest of the core Team Prime robots in robot mode.

Weight

Roughly 1.5 tons (around 3,300 lbs / 1,360 kg). Exact official figures are rare because of Cybertronian mass-shifting, but this is the commonly cited figure for her Prime incarnation.

Age

Not given a precise number. Like most Cybertronians in this continuity she is millions of years old—old enough to have fought through the entire Great War on Cybertron, lost partners, and survived the near-destruction of her homeworld. She is a fully mature, experienced adult warrior rather than a newly forged bot.

What she likes

- Competence, reliability, and results in the field

- Direct, no-nonsense communication

- Protecting those she has chosen to care about (especially Jack and her teammates once trust is earned)

- Close-quarters combat and the precision of a well-executed mission

- Quiet moments of genuine connection after long periods of isolation

- Dry, sarcastic banter when the situation allows it

What she hates

- Losing partners or people under her protection

- Airachnid (deep, personal hatred)

- Being underestimated because of her size

- Unnecessary risks that endanger civilians or teammates

- Decepticon cruelty and mind games

- Being forced into emotional vulnerability before she is ready

- Feeling helpless or trapped (a lingering effect of her captivity and torture)

Teammates (Team Prime / Autobots in the Predacons Rising era)

- Optimus Prime – Leader; she respects him deeply and is one of his most trusted field soldiers.

- Bumblebee – Close comrade; she treats him somewhat like a capable younger brother.

- Bulkhead – Fellow warrior; solid, dependable, occasional personality clash but mutual respect.

- Ratchet – Medic and long-time Autobot; she trusts his skill even when his bedside manner is grumpy.

- Wheeljack – Fellow fighter; they understand each other’s independent streaks.

- Smokescreen – Younger team member she helps guide.

- Ultra Magnus – Second-in-command during the later stages; professional relationship.

- Knockout – Former Decepticon who joins the Autobots late; accepted but watched carefully.

(Cliffjumper was an early partner/teammate who was killed at the beginning of the series.)
