ARCEE

Affiliation: Autobot 
Sub group: Omnicon

Primary function: Warrior
Omnicon Leader (cartoon)
Alternate mode: sport bike
Weapon: Energon bow

First cartoon appearance: 
Energon episode #22: Survival Instincts

First comic appearance: Energon #21 

"I know only two speeds... fast and faster”

Profile: Arcee is a fast and feisty young Omnicon. She is a dedicated warrior who has proven, time and again, that she can fight alongside the best of her Autobot teammates. Her skills with an Energon bow are unmatched. In vehicle mode, Arcee becomes a super fast sport bike and can outrun anyone who dares to challenge. Her loyalty to the Autobot cause is unquestionable, as strong as her will to fight, and as great as her tremendous speed. Although she is young and her rank is low, Optimus Prime already considers her to be one of his greatest warriors. The Omnicons are the result of Over-Run nurturing their potential (comics). Produced from a natural evolutionary step with new abilities. Evolved from Minicons? Autobots? Decepticons? Other Transformers? The cartoon is unclear as to the true origins as well.

Abilities: Skilled with the energon bow, which is constructed from her energon blaster and missile launcher. They can be used in either mode. Her sport bike mode is one of the fastest land vehicle modes of all Transformers. She also possesses an affinity with energon which has yet to be clarified. All Omnicons can harness raw energon into energon chips which can be used by Autobots for extra power or turned into special weapons for combat.

Weaknesses: A young leader, she often puts her team in dangerous situations. Her lack of strength can also be used against her.

Some information compiled was from Transformers Energon Official Guidebook published by Reader's Digest Children's Books.

Other appearances: Obviously there was the Arcee from TF: The Movie and G1 Season 3. There was also a BotCon exclusive repaint of Transmetal Blackarachnia, a Wrecker named Arcee. The latter is supposedly the future form of the former. What involvement these characters may have with the Arcee of Energon is unknown. IMO different character, same name.
