Novocaine is one of Scourge's Sweeps, often partnered with Freezer to cause chaos.

Fiction

Rise of the Beasts film

Scourge deployed Freezer and Novocaine to retrieve the Transwarp Key and kill the two humans aware of its existence, Elena Wallace and Noah Diaz. They pursued them through the museum, having the brute strength to smash through doors, but also moving stealthily with their ability to cling to walls. When one was about to get to Elena, Noah momentarily stopped it by hitting its head with a relic, and the humans managed to run out the exit, where a heated battle between the Autobots and the Terrorcons was taking place. Freezer and Novocaine followed the humans outside, where they attacked and fought against Mirage until the battle was over.

During the final battle for the Transwarp Key in Peru, Novocaine was dispatched alone—as his partner had already been killed off—to hunt Elena through the access tunnel, and cornered her over a pool of lava before she impaled him in the head and sent him falling into the magma. Rise of the Beasts

The preceding events, or events mostly similar, were also chronicled in the book "Mission at the Museum".

Notes

  • The CGI models used for Freezer and Novocaine suggest they were supposed to have distinct characteristics on their faces to make it easier to tell them apart, with promotional material suggesting Freezer is the one with two scars on his forehead and Novocaine is the one that had his left antenna cut off. However, a gaffe by the animators led to both designs being used interchangeably in the film itself, not only between the two Sweeps that follow Scourge around but also between multiple larger-sized Sweeps that share their body-type during the final battle.
  • Despite the difficulty of telling the Sweeps apart, "The Search Is On", the book that follows "Mission at the Museum", namedrops Freezer as the Sweep that hunts down the humans in the Peruvian cave, leaving Novocaine to be the one seen in the final battle before perishing in the lava.
