Fictional biography

Subject: Nit-Pickere
The Splitter of Hairs!
Incredibly anal-retentive about every detail, NIT-PICKER's constant complaints are a source of strife for both his counterpart, FIREBRAND, and the Deceptive Construct the pair have partnered with. His perfectionist nature makes him terrified of being dropped or ruining his perfectly polished chassis with scrapes and scorch marks, making him difficult to work with on the rough battlefield. He is also prone to over-analyzing combat situations, often obsessing over simulations when he should be firing at the enemy instead.

Subject: Firebrand
The Steel that Singes!
Prine to intense emotional outbursts and wild displays, Firebrand has a tendency to draw unwanted attention to his teammates with his exuberant displays of excitement at hitting targets, or his rage at the obsessive nature of his counterpart, NIT-PICKER, who often makes him hot under the collar...
