- Nightra is an Autobot from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.
Nightra is a former cadet at the Autobots' training academy, where she was a classmate of Strongarm. Events left her with a somewhat...less-than-favorable opinion of Strongarm, and she decided she needed to look out for herself first...
Fiction
2015 Robots in Disguise cartoon
- Voice actor: Lori Petty (English)
Notes
- The synopsis for "Guilty as Charged" released through TV listings services referred to Nightra as Chicane, presumably an early working name for the character. While usually referring to an artifical S-curve in a road or racing circuit, "chicane" derives from the same French root as "chicanery", chicaner, which can be translated as "to prevent justice"...which may have been considered a bit too on-the-nose, given Nightra's character.
- Nightra's character model is an altered version of Strongarm's. How fitting.
- She has the distinction of being the first rogue Autobot antagonist in an Aligned cartoon (if one doesn't count Blurr when he first arrived on Earth or Roughedge, one of Starscream's henchmen we barely learned about).
