Ulf the Orange

She has strong opinions on pulp or no pulp
Ulf the Orange is a member of the Hunger Hubs from BotBots.

Ulf the Orange is a loyal member of the Hunger Hubs. Quick to condemn and slow to forgive, she believes strongly in following the rules, so if anyone, even her boyfriend Burgertron, were to break the Sacred Rule of the Mall, she wouldn't be able look past it. And he wouldn't help his case by hanging out with those weirdo Lost Bots either!

After the energon cloud struck the mall, a slightly disoriented Ulf was brought to life in the food court with her fellow Hunger Hubs Lone Bot and Carb Along with the rest of the Hunger Hubs, Ulf took part in a production of the play I, Cheeseburger (written, directed and starring Burgertron), I, Cheeseburger and joined in butter skating on a grill in the food court. On the Bot Prom Dance Floor

One night, Ulf engaged in a game of vent sliding with her fellow Hunger Hubs, not noticing her Burgie had been sent off-course by Spud Muffin. The Goldrush Games - Part the Second The next night, a still-oblivious Ulf partied with her fellow BotBots, until she saw the flesh being approaching. Panicking, she and her fellow BotBots disguised themselves. While Ulf's alternate mode of a carton of juice attracted Dave's attention, her flavoring proved too gross even for Dave, and he attempted to dispose of her in the nearest trash receptacle. Rescue came in the form of Spud Muffin, who offered to take Ulf to the mall's food court to get a tan, but Ulf declined in favor of hanging out with Burgertron. It was at that point she finally noticed his absence.

Later on, Burgertron reappeared, but much to Ulf's horror he broke the almighty Sacred Rule of the Mall, revealing himself to the incompetent flesh being, in full sight of all the BotBots. A heartbroken Ulf confronted him, aghast that Burgertron of all beings could break the Sacred Rule. Burgertron was exiled from the Hunger Hubs, and Ulf instantly broke off all contact with him. Mall Than Meets the Eye

Ulf, along with several other BotBots, watched Fomo present his latest BotVids, the hit craze sweeping the mall. (Never) Be Yourself

In Burgertron's absence, Spud Muffin put on a revival of I, Cheeseburger, replacing the former lead actor with Brock O'Lonely. Ulf provided cue lines for the new lead during rehearsals. During the actual performance, Ulf watched from the side-stage as a jealous Burgertron tried to upstage Brock, the ensuing fight bringing the house down on her former boyfriend. Fortunately, Brock and Fottle Barts were able to salvage the situation, and Ulf took a bow to a rapturous audience with her fellow castmates. I, Cheeseburger

After the Lost Bots were accidentally caught in a photo taken by Dave, Burgertron imagined Ulf joining the other BotBots to toss them into the fiery dumpster from which none return. Phoning It In

The normal routine of the BotBots was interrupted by the sudden arrival of a strange, relentless creature, which attacked all the diminutive robots on sight. As it rampaged about the Food Court, Ulf and Spud Muffin cowered under a table, Ulf not being impressed by Spud Muffin's total cowardice. Then those weirdo Lost Bots arrived, looking and behaving even stranger than usual. However, their strange antics also proved heroic, as they drove the monster away. The celebrations were soured when Ulf and Spud noticed the creature had only entered the mall via a window Burgertron had propped open, and therefore the fiasco was entirely his fault. Live and Let LARP

When the Lost Bots showed off their idea of escalator river-rafting, Ulf took part along with the other BotBots. She found the experience so fun she figured that it was worth offering the mismatched squad a chance to attend Bot Prom as repayment. While Spud Muffin was not remotely enthusiastic about this, he reluctantly agreed, once it was agreed the Lost Bots would find a way to distract Dave. As preparations began, Ulf confided in Fottle Barts about how fun she'd forgotten Burgertron could be, and raised the suggestion of maybe inviting him back into the gang, failing to notice Spud's horrified reaction. With Dave suitably incapacitated, Bot Prom was on. Ulf and Burgertron danced together, complete with romantic power ballad. Of course, this was not to last, as despite the Lost Bots's efforts Dave still managed to break free. Disaster loomed, and as the BotBots panicked Ulf took the time to tell the Lost Bots that thanks to Burgie's latest screw-up they'd be Lost Bots forever! On the Bot Prom Dance Floor

Ulf remained outraged about the failure of Bot Prom, ranting about it to Fottle, along with getting alarmed by her squadmate's attraction to Clogstopper. As she sat and thought, Burgertron appeared, trying to tell her his belief that Bot Prom had been sabotaged by Spud Muffin freeing Dave from the play pit. Ulf was not convinced, given Dave's general greasiness, and accused Burgertron of being paranoid. Admonishing him for his changed behavior, she stormed off. Later, Ulf attended the Ruckus Rally alongside the rest of the Hunger Hubs, and graciously accepted the award for winning alongside her squadmates, despite the fact they hadn't actually participated. The Ruckus Rally

When Ulf and the other Hunger Hubs were celebrating with a cake, the Lost Bots, now pretending to be the detective squad known as the Crime Stoppers, tried to put the cake's candle out. It backfired, spraying everyone with water. Some time later, Burgertron was taken to Food Court Court on the charge of attempted donuticide. At the trial, Ulf provided overly dramatic testimony against her former lover. Crime and Bun-ishment

One night, the normally peaceful Snorg went on a rampage on top of a scootmobile. Ulf and Spud were among his victims, caught in the machine's claw arms. As they were held, they heard a recording from the source of Snorg's anger, Bonz-Eye's repressed ranting about her squadmates. Ulf and Spud couldn't help but laugh at the bonsai tree's opinion on Clogstopper, but their laughter stopped when Snorg then threw them through the air. Once everything was wrapped up, a battered and confused Ulf helped Fottle to her feet, and witnessed the Lost Bots making up. Ulf commented how she just did not get those weirdies. Like, at all. Rage Against the Karaoke Machine

After Clogstopper became the first bot to return from being "scanned out", Ulf was among the crowd who heard him explain he had been returned by the humans for being "defective". Not knowing what this meant, the other BotBots took it to mean he had some mystical, human-scaring power, and began following his word. At a mud-yoga session, Ulf was the only one to question why they were following such bizarre actions. Then the Lost Bots showed up and ruined everything, again. Scanned Out

Along with the other BotBots, Ulf took to partying night in and night out, for eighteen nights straight. The Science Alliance

Once it looked like Dave had been fired, all the BotBots began partying without consequence. Their celebration was short-lived thanks to the arrival of ludicrously over-powered security bots, which sent all the BotBots running for cover. Ulf was witness to Spud Muffin's plan to incapacitate them by hitting the robots with a chain of shopping carts. Once again, the celebration was short-lived as the robots proved immune to that, sending everyone fleeing for their lives. Shopping Brawl

When Spud Muffin threw the scientifically verified most fun party ever, things were interrupted by the dramatic arrival of the Games Master. At a stunned Ulf's questioning, the towering BotBot revealed who he was, the herald of the mythical Goldrush Games. Ulf participated in the games with the rest of her squad, eagerly noting at the start that the Hunger Hubs were automatically ranked first place. The Goldrush Games - Part the First When Spud asked Burgertron, in a totally-not-sinister way, if he wanted to return to his old squad, Ulf was immediately on the scene, imploring him to come back and make the Hunger Hubs a complete value meal again. In the second round of the games, Ulf represented the Hunger Hubs in the Rubber Chicken Bungee Jump, but failed to score. She then took part in the synchronized slime swimming alongside Burgertron, before being part of the Hunger Hubs in the final round, the relay obstacle course, facing off against Bonz-Eye. However, the mood was ruined when Spud Muffin cheated in order to win, gloating about his triumph, much to the disapproval of his squadmates. Then Burgertron revealed the Games Master was in fact none other than Brock O'Lonely, and the games nothing more than a plot by Spud to get him and the other Lost Bots exiled for good. Ulf confronted him about this, and the Hunger Hubs leader revealed the true depths of his hatred for Burgertron. So caught up with his ranting was Spud he failed to notice the approach of the flesh being, thereby breaking the Sacred Rule himself. A now furious Ulf approached him about this, and the remaining BotBots decreed that Spud deserved punishment, while also allowing him to work for redemption. So, exile to the Dark Side of The Mall it was.

With Spud's departure, Ulf took up position as spokesperson for the Hunger Hubs, offering the Lost Bots places with the squads where they truly belonged. However, the Lost Bots declined, preferring to stay together. In celebration, the BotBots began partying. The Goldrush Games - Part the Second

Notes

[edit]
  • So, that name. Near as can be told, this might be a reference to guitarist Ulf Holmberg, part of the band Orange. It's the best we got.
  • While most of the text in the BotBots cartoon is in its own cypher, the text on Ulf's juice box mode appears to be a scribble that kinda looks like "juice".
