Hothead

Text from her reference sheet:
Hothead has an explosive personality, and is fiery both in temperament and in battle.  Her specialty is close-range combat and fire, but she's also a skilled electronics technician, despite the fact that she is, at all other times, quite dim-witted.  Tends to butt heads with others, both figuratively and literally; doing so often leaves a decepticon-symbol-shaped indentation on the other.

Warning: Known To Bite.

Flamethrowers mounted on arms.

Extended Bio:

Hothead may have one of the worst tempers amongst the Decepticons, which is already a pretty impressive feat in itself.  Very quick to anger, even moreso than her trinemate, Short Circuit.

She is known to bite; specifically in the "rip a generous chunk of your neck out with her teeth" kind of way.  It's generally common knowledge among the Decepticons that, if you are going to provoke her, to not get within biting range.  Many a bot has lost fingers that way.

Hothead's preferred method of entering battle is flying at an opponent in alt mode and transforming at the last second, ramming them at full speed with her horns and reinforced helm ornament.  Has a tendency to also set herself on fire while doing this.

Very reckless, doesn't often think ahead; also quite the pyromaniac: if she sees anything in battle that is flammable, she will set it alight, regardless of who is nearby, including herself.

Hothead is quite boisterous, much like Short Circuit, although she is much quicker to do a complete 180 and fight anyone who so much as looks at her funny.  This can make her hard to get along with, but despite that she has managed to somehow land in the good graces of a few fellow Decepticons.

Loves headbutting others with her helm ornament, which often leaves a decepticon-symbol-shaped indentation in the others' plating, which she refers to as "stamping".  She can also apply fire to the symbol and literally brand the Decepticon insignia into anyone unfortunate enough to get a headbutt.  Telltale signs that Hothead was responsible for a body is burned metal, bites, and the aforementioned indent.

Very close to her trinemates, Short Circuit and Nightshade.  Has frequently described them as the only two Cons that really get her.  Despite this, it is not uncommon for her to get in scraps with Short Circuit, as the two's personalities often clash.
