He is a mystical being who finds power in ancient Cybertronian incantations and spells. Seemingly impossible feats he has performed, such as amazing physical prowess beyond his body's technical specifications seem to indicate there is some truth behind his beliefs. Deeply spiritual, he is well-read about the legends of Primus and his arch-enemy Unicron, and convinced that whenever he destroys an opponent, the inner strength found within that enemy's spark joins his own.
