Sari Sumdac


 * Sari Sumdac is a human from the Transformers Animated franchise.



Sari Sumdac, the adopted daughter of robotics genius Isaac Sumdac, doesn't get out much. She spends all her time within her father's laboratories, receiving her education from robots. Despite this, she doesn't seem like a shut-in. She's curious, excitable, adventurous, and knows that crying can sometimes get her what she wants. She just doesn't know what it's like to be around other kids.

The key around her neck has miraculous powers from the Allspark, but her guardian, the robotic dog Sparkplug, thinks it's just another chewtoy.

When her pet robot dog Sparkplug stole her security keycard, she chased it outside and was confronted by Bumblebee and Bulkhead, who spoke to her, thinking she was Sparkplug's pet. Naturally, she freaked out, but quickly befriended Bumblebee, who saved her from a giant bug that grown from her father's nanite experiment gone awry. Stowing away on Bumblebee and heading for the Ark, she came across the All Spark, which infused part of its power with her security key. This allowed her to heal Transformers, such as the injured Prowl, earning her brownie points with the 'Bots. She also managed to talk the police down from shooting the Autobots, saying they were friendly (except Ratchet, who was grumpy, but not evil). Sari later helped teach the Autobots about Earth and humans.

During the unveiling of her father's new transit system, Starscream arrived and attacked. Bumblebee took a shot meant for Sari, allowing Starscream to capture him, Professor Sumdac, the Mayor, and Captain Fanzone. Sari came up with the idea to distract Starscream while she and Prowl rescued the others (even faking some tears to make it happen). Her key later saved Optimus Prime's life when she used it to revive his spark.
