Despite their appearance, the "little informants" are members of the most knowledgeable race in the galaxy, as well as the most curious. They also have the ability to ingest raw matter and convert it through some unknown internal process into raw energon, which they can then regurgitate. Whether this ability to vomit Energon is natural or artificially induced is unclear.
