Deluge may just be a common soldier, but he's strong, smart, fast, untiring, trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. He probably takes home stray glitch mice and helps old female Autobots cross the street. Despite all this, the brass sees no better use for him but as his unit's designated rear guard. Life is unfair. Deluge probably gets very confused when other Autobots call him Drench.
