Cliffjumper (WFC)


 * Cliffjumper is an Autobot from and  continuity family.



Even before the war, Cliffjumper was constantly spoiling for a fight. The Decepticons just gave him an excuse. He's been bending fenders and smashing heads for Stellar-Cycles now, and the fun never Stops. Despite his short temper, he gets along well with the other Autobots, who appreciate his eagerness to take the first shot in every battle.

Years ago on Cybertron, Ciffjumper and Bumblebee rescued Arcee from Airachnid.

Later he joined Optimus Prime's team, became Arcee's combat partner, and sometime later arrived on Earth.

After conversing with Arcee over radio-link, telling her about recieving a boot clamp for being illegally parked, Cliffjumper discovered an energon deposit. He was attacked by many Vehicons and then kidnapped. He was taken aboard the Decepticon ship and brought before. Noting it had been a while since the two had last met, Cliffjumper asked where Starscream's master was, and Starscream stuck his clawed fist into Cliffjumper's chest, killing him. Starscream then ordered his troops to clean up the body.

The remaining Earthbound Autobots arrived on the scene too late, and Ratchet confirmed that Cliffjumper's spark had gone offline. Finding one of Cliffjumper's horns in the dirt, Arcee took the piece of her friend to the Autobots' memorial service. The loss of Cliffjumper hit her the hardest, and she stormed off amidst their eulogies, preferring to honor Cliffjumper's memory by keeping Earth safe. Ratchet confided in Optimus Prime that as long as the Autobots protected humanity, Cliffjumper's death would not be the only tragedy.



Later, Megatron wanted a corpse to test his newly found Dark Energon shard on, he used Cliff's body as a test suject and he was revived as a Terrorcon. After Cliffjumper killed two Decepticon Miners, Megatron sliced him in half when the zombie tried to kill him. Starscream questioned the wisdom Megatrons plan but he told his next in charge that Cliff was no longer an Autobot but a mindless beast that would destroy anything. He was later found partially alive by Arcee, but when Cliffjumper was growling, Arcee became horrified and dropped him into the mine shafts, where he died (again) in an explosion that Starscream sent off in a bomb.

Arcee strongly claims that she will forever be emotionally upset over Cliffjumper's death as equal to Tailgate's death.

This makes her more aggressive than the other Autobots, which made her decided to risk into dangerous opportunities, something Optimus Prime taught her was a disadvantage. When Starscream was an Autobot prisoner he let it slip that he killed Cliff which sparked Arcee to attack him. But Starscream sneck attacked her, wounding her. Starscream then began to gloat about Cliff's death. Then he began to gloat about Tailgates death (after he learned of his death). Arcee eventually got the upper hand on Starscream but Arcee saw Bumblebee and realized that Autobot's are not killers and that settling scores would not let her move on.

Later, the Synthetic Energon injected Ratchet blamed Optimus Prime's desire to protect humanity for Cliffjumper's death, angering Arcee, as she tried to pulverize Ratchet but Bulkhead held onto her arms to avoid doing so.
