Arcee (Cyberverse)

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

Arcee is an Autobot from the Cyberverse continuity family.

But is she Galvatron's sister?.

Arcee is a loyal member of Optimus Prime's crew. She has an adventurous streak, with plenty of selfies to document the many places she's been and things she's seen. You would think this would make her a liability in combat, but give her a giant gatling cannon and she'll mow you down.

"No, no, this is a *genuine* smile! Don't run away!"

Arcee was present during Megatron's speech to the masses when he was unveiling the Decepticons. Megatron Is My Hero After it was determined that Optimus had made a mistake in launching the AllSpark, the Ark was launched to retrieve it, Arcee amongst its crew. As the ship sailed through the void however, its energon stores dipped forcing the crew into stasis pods. Teletraan-1 eventually tracked the AllSpark to Earth only for the Ark to suffer a hull breach and crash land in Mount St. Hilary. Some 66 million years later, Arcee, along with the rest of the crew, was reawakened by Bumblebee and Teletraan-X in time to see the Decepticon fleet invade Earth. Eruption

The Cybertronians eventually became known to humankind, Sea of Tranquility with Arcee using this publicity to visit a zoo and take photos of herself with the animals. She later used her photos of the animals she had encountered on her travels to help Bumblebee identify the creature he saw on the moon. The Visitor

Once the AllSpark had been retrieved, the Autobots set course back for Cybertron, enjoying a victory celebration on the way. Along with her crew-mates, Arcee fell victim of Wheeljack's malfunctioning AllSpark Energy Emitter Badges, driving her to attack everything in a maddened rage. Optimus eventually managed to shut down the chips, and later made the ultimate sacrifice, dancing, to get the victory celebration back on track. Party Down

After forty cycles of maddening boredom, Arcee joined Grimlock in visiting a nearby nebula only to find it uneventful. When the duo returned, they found that their ship and crew-mates had been immobilized by an electromagnetic storm that the dull nebula had shielded them from, with Arcee snapping a selfie of her and the prone Hot Rod. As Arcee theorized how to reboot the ship, she found Grimlock's attention seized by a flock of Air Hammers. As the two marvelled at the creatures, they soon realized that the beasts posed a threat to the immobilized ship. Recreating the plan used against a herd of Bantors, the duo lured the Air Hammers away via a pimped out Autobot shuttle and Arcee mimicking an Air Hammer call.

As she and Grimlock patted themselves on the back, they remembered that Air Hammers heralded meteor showers. Recalling the time the Ark ran across the crystal ice moon, Arcee and Grimlock broke out the heavy artillery and shot the rocks from atop the hull. Once they were all taken care of, Arcee reminded Grimlock that comets were often the herald of a supernova. As realization set in, the two tried to use the AllSpark and the prone Cheetor to reboot the shields. Eventually the two tried to use their sparks to restart the ship and as they quarrelled over who would sacrifice themselves, Teletraan-X showed up and simply pressed a big red button to reboot the ship allowing the supernova to pass harmlessly. As normal operations resumed, Arcee smiled to Grimlock that they should go on another such adventure in the future. Perfect Storm

As the Ark entered Cybertron's atmosphere, Hot Rod asked other Autobots what they planned doing once they got home. Arcee replied that she wanted to kick back and relax after unpacking all her souvenirs from Earth. Battle For Cybertron I Along with the rest of the crew, Arcee bailed out of the ship when Optimus suspected a Decepticon trap. She took part in the fight with the amassed Decepticon forces, during which she rode on Grimlock's back while opening fire only to be blasted by Alphastrike. She recovered in time to fight Sky-Byte.
