Hound

The Hound is a walking arsenal: a six-barreled Gatling gun, shotguns, pistols, grenades, and, in a pinch, a hat and belt instead of weapons. He's not known for his speed or maneuverability, but he's a force to be reckoned with, using attrition and firepower, capable of unleashing a "rain of lead" to hold back an enemy advance. He's vulnerable to EMP blasts, which can damage his targeting systems or wipe his memory.

He's a classic "sergeant-at-arms": a raspy voice, crude jokes, a habit of yelling at his comrades. But beneath the surface cynicism lies a deep devotion to Optimus and a willingness to single-handedly cover a retreat, even when the odds are slim. He's more attached to people than he's willing to admit: he might joke around with people, but he actually cares about them.

Hound is a grumpy and brutal warrior, yet charismatic and humorous. He's a chubby Autobot who can transform into a military all-terrain vehicle. Hound is drawn to combat like a spark to a light bulb. There's no mission an Autobot commando wouldn't dare undertake, except perhaps one that involves shooting a few Decepticons. Faction: Autobots. Allies: Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Drift, Crosshairs. Alternate Form: Military All-Terrain Vehicle and Cargo Truck. Weapon: Tri-barreled machine gun.
