Inferno is a Predacon who works for Megatron. He was originally a Maximal protoform, reprogrammed into a Predacon when the Predacons intercepted his stasis pod. His beast form is a fire ant. At first, Inferno believed his pod to be his "colony", and attacked the Predacons as well as the Maximals. After being blown to bits and repaired, Inferno recognized Megatron as his master and called him his queen, which annoyed Megatron. Other than this, Megatron highly appreciates Inferno's insane vigor for destruction and violence.
