"Reaper Ice" is a Neo-Maximal who serves as Great Convoy's enforcer with the Talent of Cryokinesis.

## Official Bio

*Another of Great Convoy's many shadowy enforcers, it is commonly believed that "Reaper Ice" was a survior of Acadeimos, and that the incident lead her to have a strong hatred of the Decepticons - so much that she'll gladly serve someone who looks disdainfully on the Autobot's legacy if it means she'll get a chance to cut down the last remnants of the Decepticons once and for all.*

## History

Tailgate survived the Siege of Acadeimos, but Hosehead did not, having been killed by Dirge. Desiring revenge, she had Ramjet teach her how to fight and she used her training to kill many Decepticons, with the experience making her feel alive like she had been with Hosehead. However, upon learning about Ramjet's friendship with Dirge, Tailgate felt betrayed by her mentor. At some point Tailgate went missing, which was one of the events recounted by Lightbright to Gridlock in Relics of the Past.

What the Resistance didn't know was that Tailgate had joined up with Great Convoy and had become one of his enforcers under the codename "Reaper Ice" in order to hunt down every last one of the Decepticons and Resistance members.

In Beta Emergency "Reaper Ice" was among the enforcers surrounding Great Convoy when King Atlas reported his failure to capture Beta Maxx. He then asked his enforcers if they would repeat King Atlas's failure.

In Irregular Hunters: Part 2 "Reaper Ice" was on board the Sky-Carrier attacking Tetrahex and deployed herself when Ramjet and Devcon arrived to stop the ship. Launching herself at them inside a massive icicle, "Reaper Ice" refused to give Ramjet a reason for attacking civilians before charging and punching him hard enough to damage his chest plate. She then prepared to charge again when Devcon started shooting at her, prompting her to slice his arm off. She then prepared to execute him, but Devcon was able to roll under her and shoot her back. "Reaper Ice" then shot him with her Freeze Busters, leaving Devcon trapped in ice, and she mocked his and Ramjet's skills as she began to squeeze Devcon. However, she was interrupted by a shot to the head from Guzzle that melted off her hood, revealing her face. "Reaper Ice" remarked how the old timers always needed to be saved before declaring her job of stalling them done and vowing to kill them later, leaping away as Guzzle tried to shoot her again. Seeing "Reaper Ice's" face led to Ramjet realizing she was Tailgate, and caused him to think back to the Siege, regretting his failure to help the freshmen, but he still believed that Tailgate could be redeemed.

During Overloaded Lightbright noted how "Reaper Ice" was one of the few enforcers sighted at the recent bases attacked by the Resistance, suggesting something was wrong.

Later in Shipyards Ablaze "Reaper Ice" was ordered by Great Convoy to return to the capital and prepare for a frontal assault. Despite being dismissive of the idea that the Resistance could pose such a threat, she was told to notify Chameleao and Kuwanger of the plan, as well as reroute Black Convoy and Fire Convoy to Iacon. She then informed him that Venator's Unit was still away with only Armorbreak and Scorch's being avaliable along with an Omega Sentinel unit, and was then told by Great Convoy to ready the Sentinels for the capital attack.

In Of Shattered Memories... "Reaper Ice" was waiting for Ramjet when he arrived at the Citadel, and removed her hood for the fight. Shooting ice at him, she welcomed him to her frozen wonderland before proceeding to laugh and slash at him with her scythe. She told him how much she liked fighting an opponent she could so easily read and how seeing his emotions made her feel alive, still trying to slice him with her scythe. Pinning Ramjet against the door "Reaper Ice" put the blade to her face and asked him to give her emotions as Hosehead once did before attempting to kill him, only being blocked by Ramjet's energy sword. Continuing to attack despite being too weak, "Reaper Ice" reminisced about all the Decepticons she had killed and how natural it was. When Ramjet told her that their anguish wasn't natural, "Reaper Ice" hesitated for a moment before insisting that the natural died with Hosehead and continued to slash at Ramjet even when he put his saber away. She then told him that Tailgate died when he killed Hosehead, and that only "Reaper Ice" remained to take his spark. Angrily insisting that because he didn't stop Dirge she became the way she did, "Reaper Ice" stopped attacking from exhaustion, only to try cutting Ramjet's hands off when he attempted to surrender. Pausing again she told her opponent how the fight was about more than revenge, but about feeling alive once again, hugging herself to feel Hosehead's embrace. Readying her scythe for the final blow, "Reaper Ice" charged at Ramjet, only for him to cut off her hand and destroy her weapon, knocking her out.

The creation of "Reaper Ice" was one of the actions Downbeat blamed Ramjet for in The Battle Is Won.

During the Resistance's final attack on the Citadel in Timeline's End, "Reaper Ice" was among the defenders. During the battle she killed Whirl with her scythe.

"Reaper Ice" was erased from existence when the timeline was finally altered.
