Arcee is one of the few female Autobots in the Transformers franchise, with Chromia and Elita One being her sisters. Although she is small in size, her agility and small size mark her a hard target.
In Transformers: Prime, Arcee is assigned with guarding Jack Darby, a local caught in the battle with the Decepticons. Although she is openly unhappy about this task, she loyaly obeys. She has lost two partners in the past, leading to be wary of getting close to others.
