A branched spark is an aberration that occurs every once in a million sparks. Instead of just one spark, two are produced, and the individuals that share the branched spark experience "vicarious perception", wherein pain felt by one can be felt by the another. They are also linked in life and death—if one dies, both die.

Notes
[edit]- Aligned Dreadwing and Skyquake are noted to have a "split spark" in the Prime episode "Loose Cannons". However, while Dreadwing notes sensing Skyquake's death, it was not fatal for him.
- Similarly, Animated twins Jetfire and Jetstorm share mitotic sparks, though it is unknown if they experience each others' thoughts.
