Yell
ALLEGIANCE: Decepticon
FUNCTION: Communications

"  "

PROFILE:  Wheeljack created Yell to be an extra hand to help with odd tasks 
around the workshop and to help Ratchet and Perceptor with their work.  Later 
on she joined the 'con ranks.  Officially, Rosestar's peer pressure led Yell 
to join the 'cons;  others claim that Optimus Prime asked her to join in 
order to keep him up to date with the female 'con activities, promising 
Wheeljack's safety.  In either case, she hated her original name Maize 
(named due to her muddy yellow color) and felt underappreciated.  After 
joining the 'cons, Edge and Starscream built a third mode for her, that of 
a cargo ship.
	She rarely uses the cargo mode because she is afraid the mode will 
fall apart (She fears this because Edge helped build it and most of Edge's 
work explodes after a while).  When she does use this mode, she never 
carries more than one passenger and she shakes from side to side while 
flying.  Usually this passenger is a tape...the bigger the passenger the 
more she sways.  She is an expert on Decepticon history which she used to 
study in her spare time on pre-war Cybertron.

ABILITIES:  True to her adopted name, she can emit a high pitched noise 
audible to any 'con or 'bot animal and can use it to send long distance 
messages in a kind of morse code.  

WEAKNESSES:  She's been known to look at her Decepticon symbol as if she 
needs a reminder in order to act tough.  Although she's constantly tried 
to forget about him, she's sympathetic to Wheeljack's memory.  She feels 
stuck between whether to continue honoring her promise to   
Optimus Prime even with Wheeljack's demise or to go back to the Autobots 
who couldn't even protect her fallen creator.  Since she feels that she 
looses either way, she remains at the present with the Decepticons.
