Buster

Buster is a student of the Autobot Academy with the talent known as Armor Augmentation

## Official Bio

*Buster is loud and confident. He tends to be super friendly and, honestly, not always so smart. Yet you don't need to be super smart if you're always ramming your body as a battering ram or shield. His ability allows him to "armor up!" as he likes to shout, coating his body in an almost invulnerable alloy. The limits of this alloy can take has yet to be full tested. Yet it does mostly depend on the users endurance and focus. Which is a bit much for Buster since his minder wanders unless he gets serious.*

## History

### Before Joining the Academy

After discovering his talent Buster was admitted to the Autobot Academy.

### Freshman Year- First Semester

*In Forest Trials, Buster was dropped into the Forest of Trials with the rest of the freshmen and arrived at the holorecording of Star Convoy shortly after Ironfist, Circuit, Mach Dart, Ramjet, Aranea, Longshot, and Saber, dragging Fuego along with him. Commenting on Aranea's personality as she left, Buster talked with Ramjet before going over the map to the Academy. After expressing excitement over Misfire, Hosehead, and Bomb-Burst joining them and having them introduce themselves to him, Buster made it to the Academy with the rest of the group. He did some karaoke in a bar while at Acadeimos Town Beta and later chatted with Fuego as they went to find their dorm rooms, running into Bomb-Burst on the way.*

On the first day Buster was sorted into Class 4-B, under the tutelage of Rollout. *In The First Test he introduced himself and later stood by and chuckled when Vocall accidentally showed up in the wrong class. Afterwards Buster demonstrated his armor by taking a punch from Rollout and cracking the teacher's own armor before class was dismissed for lunch.*

During Fight Sim Club Buster was placed on the "hero" team during the first weekly training exercise held by Kup.

In Observations in Team Dynamics, Buster was among many students who attended an assembly where Fortress Maximus announced that the various students would be joining professional Autobots, watching them work, sitting next to Bomb-Burst and Cheetor.

For the final training exercise of the semester in Zero to Hero Buster faced off against pro heroes with several other freshmen. They ended up losing the exercise, but got a new high score.

### The Siege

Buster was among the casualties of the Siege of Acadeimos.
