- Furão is an Autobot from the Animated continuity family.
A while back, Furão, a young cop, was stationed on the Flash Frenzy, when it was hit by Decepticon saboteurs while docked at a depot near Elba. As the depot exploded, Furão saved the day by crawling through the conduits to collect magnetic coating to fashion into solar sails. He then used his makeshift solar sails to absorb energy from the nearby Blot Nebula; absorbing just enough to push the Flash Frenzy away from its dock to safety. This brave act is how he received his name, which means "ferret" in Old Malignus.
