## Biography

### Early life

Mudflap was born on Cybertron at the same time as Skids but after Jolt. Mudflap left his homeworld, when Optimus Prime commanded the Autobots to leave Cybertron.

### Arriving on Minecraftia

Mudflap arrived on Minecraftia, after receivng Optimus' message, along with Sideswipe, Skids and Jolt. There they joined NEST, an Autobot-human alliance. One of the Autobots, J4U, was also recreated into Subwoofer.

### Battle of Shanghai

In 2016, NEST detected energon readings in Shanghai. Mudflap travelled there along with Skids, Sideswipe, Subwoofer, Jolt, Ironhide, Robert Epps, Michael and NEST team A, but not before he and Skids received upgrades. There Subwoofer went on to evacuate the city, while Mudflap and the others stayed with the army. He later followed Michael who had the energon detector to an ally. Michael ordered the Autobots to stay behind in case if there was nothing in there, despite Ironhide's warning. In the ally were actually Decepticon Protoforms, who killed Michael and sevral other soldiers. In the following call, Epps commented that the

Protoforms were pushing them back, to which Skids replied to let 'em try. Mudflap supported his brother by saying that they've got this. Howevhere they were opposed by Sideswipe, as he mentioned that they needed some backup because they were suppresed with heavy fire. Mudflap then helped Skids and Sideswipe defeat sevral Protoforms that escaped from the ally. Later on at the base, Mudflap mentioned to Subwoofer that he was glad that he and Skids got upgrades before gong into Shanghai. Jolt also mentioned that his brothers were annoying (to which Subwoofer agreed) and that he wanted to grab them by the necks and give them a little shock. Mudflap's and the other newcomers' presence was later questioned by Seymour Simmons ast their arrival wasn't aknowledged by the goverment.

### "Saving" Subwoofer

After Ravage stole the last fragment of the cube, Optimus told Subwoofer to bring Sam to him in order to talk with the boy. After doing so, Subwoofer drove Sam back to his college where he was attacked by sevral Protoforms and Breakdown who knocked him unconcious. A distress signal was sent to NEST upon that, so

Skids and the rest of the Autobots went to rescue Subwoofer. By the time they arrived to the stadium where he was kept, the Autobot already killed his opponents as Breakdown didn't kill him. Do to that the Autobots began to suspect that the Decepticons wanted them distracted. This was true, as in the meantime Starscream went to resurrect Megatron.

### Finding Megatron

After Megatron was resurrected, Mudflap and the rest of the Autobots returned to the NEST base. There he ran in panic along with Skids and sevral soldiers while Simmons, Morshower, Lennox, Optimus, Subwoofer and Bumblebee discussed the situation. Optimus later had a conversation with Subwoofer in private although it turned wrong and ended with Sub leaving the Autobots. He then went to get Sam and Mikaela before they got captured by Grindor who took them to Megatron and Starscream but they got saved by Optimus. Optimus was later on killed by Megatron allowing the Decepticons to launch a full-scale invasion.

### Hiding

Following Optimus' death, Mudflap went into hiding with Sam, Mikaela, Subwoofer, Bumblebee, Jolt and Skids in Greenfield. While they were there, Sam revealed that he was experiencing weird visions about the matrix. Subwoofer who didn't know what this was asked Bee and Jolt if they knew what the matrix was and attempted to ask the twins too but quickly said that they couldn't know that. Jolt and Bee were unaware of what the matrix was as well causing the group to cluelessly sit next to their campfire. Sam then asked Sub why did he leave the Autobots, so Subwoofer told them a story that went back to Cybertron when he was still J4U and

when he was guarding an Autobot Sector with Arcee whom he loved and her sisters Elita-One and Chromia with the story ending tragicaly as all three sisters got killed by Sideways, Breakdown and Starscream causing J4U to leave Cybertron for Minecraftia. His story was then interrupted by Simmons who came to apologize to the Autobots and to resupply them. He told them that he found the group with an energon detector and that after Prime died another signal appeared not far from them. Mudflap and the rest of the group then went to the Greenfield Museum of Natural History where they awoke an elderly Aerialbot Jetfire who told them that he hid the matrix of leadership from the Fallen who killed his brothers and that he cannot be stopped without a Prime but although Optimus was dead, they could resurrect him with the matrix. This came with a risk though, as the proces could make a nuclear explosion, a risk that they were willing to take. Jetfire then created a wormhole which the group used to travel to Cairo where they learned that Jetfire forgot where the matrix was. They decided that they will destroy every block if they had to because Prime would do the same for them.

### Finding the matrix

The group soon started to dig up the sand and took down an entire hill before starting to dig up trenches. Finding nothing, they went back to Jetfire and Subwoofer asked him if he was sure that this was the right place because they haven't found anything yet but quickly realised that they had a headstart on the Decepticons as they were looking for the matrix too, although he didn't know what they would do if they showed up in Egypt as there was only six of them against the entire Decepticon army. The group then went to a well located at the bottom of the hill and after he checked if there was anything in it, Sub told the rest of the Autobots to go in it in order to take a bath. In frustration, Sub punched the ground once he came out of the

well only for it to not be real sand - instead it was a trapdoor disquised as sand. They then climbed down the ladders that were placed on the walls and realised that they were in the Tomb of the Primes. In the middle Subwoofer found the matrix of leadership and contacted Ironhide, telling him to bring Prime to Cairo but their call was secretly overheard by Soundwave who alerted Megatron who told him to alert The Fallen and send all available Decepticon forces to the location in order to end the war. The group then went back to Jetfire where Sub told him that they found the matrix and that he needed to take Simmons to the city where they were supposed to regroup. Mudflap joined Sam, Mikaela, Bumblebee, Subwoofer, Skids and Jolt on their way to the city.

### Death

As the group was driving through the desert, they suddenly spoted Demolishor, causing them to hide behind a hill. As they went closer they saw that all of the Constructicons were there with him and that they were standing between them and the city. They climbed on top of a hill where Sub shot Demolishor sevral times before the group charged at the Constructicons. Mudflap went into a fight with Mixmaster, with the Decepticon knocking him back with his shields. He was then attacked by Rampage and although he was helped by Skids and Bumblebee, the Decepticon was able to kill him.

### Legacy

Moments after Mudflap died, his death was pointed out by Subwoofer when he saw that Skids was all alone. His brother was killed by Devastator soon after, with their deaths being pointed out by Subwoofer numerous times. Jolt mentioned that if Prime was not resurrected his brothers died for nothing, and that he was their last chance of avenging them.
