Elita-One (aka Elita-1, also Flareup) was one of the female Transformer robots. Naturally, she received a lot of attention, which by no means displeased her, but she was more than a pretty face. She was a cunning fighter and an excellent marksman, capable of hitting a target from at least four miles away. When it came time to rely on more than her gun, she's able to emit an "attraction field" that can cause those without protection to overheat without warning.
Older sister to Arcee and Chromia and one of Optimus Prime's closest and longest-serving officers, Elita-One shared the Autobot commander's compassion and dedication for protecting the innocent and downtrodden. Every bit as skilled as she was compassionate, Elita-One was one of the Autobots' strongest leaders.
