**Jetstorm** is a Vehicon-type Accelera Drone and Commander of the Aero drones. He was once a Cat Mobian named **Morbulus**, a rogue pilot who served as a mercenary for Gelorum until he became a victim of Dr. viper turning him into a bacterial mutant.

## Appearance

### Mobian

As a Mobian he was strong built with light brown fur and a dark brown beard until he was mutated into a hulking purple bacteria monster with four yellow eyes.

### Vehicon

Jetstorm’s body is cone shaped coloured blue with yellow stripes on the top of his arms and silver wings on his back. His face is like a gas-mask with red eyes. In his vehicle mode he resembled a blue jet with yellow stripped wings.

## Personality

Jetstorm is arrogant and cocky with the skills to back them up. The only thing he likes more than cracking wise is cracking heads. He takes great pleasure in tormenting his enemies and lets them know at every opportunity how much better than them he is. He has a nasty temper that is barely hidden behind a thin veneer of cool indifference, and it really doesn't take much to set him off.

Despite his smarm, bravado, and temper, Jetstorm knows when to cut his losses and run for it. He may have a whole load of personality flaws, but he's not stupid, especially when it comes to knowing magical artifacts such as the Mjolnir that was once belonged to the Viking God of Thunder Thor.

Jetstorm appears to retain some of his traits from his previous life and seems to hold great hatred towards the person for the cause of his original body. Whether or not this was caused by the blast from the Gem Homeworld or through the transfer of his conciousness is uncertain.

## Biography

### Early Life

In his previous life, Morbulus became a pilot mercenary who was employed by Clyp Agency Director Gelorum to take on simple jobs such as smuggling and piracy of weapons and military equipment. He was defeated by the SWAT Kats, who used the Cookie-Cutter Missile to "cut" the villain from the cockpit of his jet, seat and all. Grabbing him with the Sky Claw as he fell, they dumped Morbulus into the bay. However by the time the Enforcers arrived, all they found of Morbulus was his empty flight suit - he'd managed to take off his clothes and then put them back together to make it seem as if he was still in them.

Avoided capture by the authorities and encountered Dr. Viper, however, he unwittingly became a test subject to Viper’s plan and turned him into a hulking blob of mutated bacteria monster. As the bacteria monster, Morbulus was nigh-unkillable, as he would divide into more of himself when hit. Because Morbulus literally had eyes in the back of his head, the bacteria monster had four eyes due to the effects of his Semblance, so whenever the bacteria monsters split, the eyes would be divided up among the individual monsters to attack GrimmFall. The Swat Kats were able to defeat the monster, unknowingly killed Morbulus in the process.

Unaware to many, some of his genetic remains that were unaffected had been retrieved by the Racing Drones under Gelorum’s orders to have enough to reconstruct some of him to have a mind but most of his memory was lost.

### Vehicon Drone

Morbulus was one of the five selected by Gelorum's latest models of drones from observing the latest developments of the warriors on Earth and transferred the data files of their skills and abilities into the development of the new generals. However, in need to control the new Vehicon army that lacks the intelligence or the preservation to operate, she needed generals of advanced units to command them and converted Morbulus as Jetstorm for the Aero drones, created to command them with strong intelligence and strategy to make them unique and powerful.

Jetstorm along with Thrust and Tankor was given the task to prove themselves to Gelorum by attacking the Digimon known as Omnimon. Jetstorm led the attack, stopping the train that Omnimon had been on and lured him out to be ambushed by Thrust and Tankor. The three Vehicons attacked the Digimon, forcing him to flee into the forest and even with the help of Shannon and Donatello the Vehicons eventually overpowered them. Fortunately, Katz and the Devil Gundam arrived and drove the Vehicons off in an attempt to force Omnimon to work for an assignment on behalf of Sammael.

When the Hall of Heroes was succeffully infiltrated by two criminals, Jetstorm along with Thrust and Tankor were selected to wreck as much havoc as they can to sabotage the heroes' base. Fighting off the heroes and confronted the two from Earth-16 known as Superboy and Artemis Crock, fighting the two heroes until he recieved news from one of his aero-drones of the Omega Vault and shared it among the rest of his squad to converge on its location. Through one of his drones, he confronted a group of visitors: Steven, Greg, Amethyst and Johnny. Taunted the group before tempting to eliminate them until Johnny threw dozen of artifacts until he unexpectedly pulled the Mjolnir, the hammer of the fallen God of Thunder, Thor, much to his shock upon realizing what it is. Despite their attempts to defeat the new wielder of the hammer, Jetstorm decided to order a retreat to their remaining forces when knowing how outmatched they were against an Asgardian weapon.

### Next Phase

Gelorum reviewed the performance of the Vehicon Generals and was pleased, despite failing to eliminate Omnimon. She gave them a new mission: to attack the headquarters of the Justice Friends.

### Acceleracers

After succeeded in taking over Hot Wheels City as their base of operations, Jetstorm and the Vehicons assisted the Racing Drones into completing the Racing Realms through the Wheel of Power. He appeared in the Storm Realm and first to face off the driving teams: Teku, Metal Maniacs, and the Burners. Despite the possibility of being vulnerable to the skies of the Storm Realm's lightning, he was able to outmaneuver them using his speed and remain close to the tracks to hunt down the drivers to make sure the Drones win the next realm. He first fought against the members of the Burners: Dutch and Texas, then moved on to catch the rest of the teams, including the Teku alongside them and aided RD-L1 into completing the Storm Realm and taunted the drivers before making his exit.

After returning to the Drones' HQ, he was assigned along with Tankor and Thrust to the Siberian Prison on Gelorum's orders to retrieve Clovis Bray.
