Inferno (Armada)

The name or term "Inferno" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Inferno (disambiguation).

Inferno is a Mini-Con from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Inferno thinks he's a parrot.

Selected by Thrust to be his personal Mini-Con, Inferno has grown into the role of aiding his Decepticon partner. Inferno has become ever more enamored with the feeling of power that comes from being partnered with the respected veteran Decepticon, which has made him take on some of Thrust's arrogant characteristics. Swaggering among the other Mini-Cons and even Decepticons with a cocky attitude, Inferno sometimes hinders Thrust's schemes by making them too many enemies, too fast. Despite the liability represented by Inferno's boasting, Thrust still values his partnership with the capable and formidable Mini-Con.

Although small, Inferno is quite powerful in both robot and tank mode. His vehicle mode can launch high-explosive shells up to 7 miles away with pinpoint accuracy. Inferno also possesses limited cloaking capabilities, which he can pass on to a larger Transformer during Powerlinx along with increased speed and weaponry.

Inferno was among the Mini-Cons who escaped from Decepticon captivity to live in a fortress on Earth's moon. They were eventually tracked down, and Inferno ran for his life as Megatron smashed his way into the base. Dreamwave Armada issue 11 He boarded an escape pod alongside Comettor and the Street Speed Mini-Con Team, but was left unconscious when it crashed in Alaska. Fire & Ice The Autobots and Decepticons both tried to retrieve the pod, and the Autobots ultimately won out. Dreamwave Armada issue 13 Inferno and the other Mini-Cons on Earth later travelled to Cybertron to fight Unicron. Presumably, he participated in the ceremony at the Loop, channeling his energy into the Mini-Con Matrix to deal a major blow to Unicron. The End

Trivia

• Thrust was already invisible before Inferno joined him (in fact, Inferno also vanished after coming within a few feet of Thrust). This contradicts his bio, which state that powerlinking with Inferno is what causes Thrust to go into stealth mode.
