BRAIN FREEZE
ALLEGIANCE: DECEPTICON
FUNCTION: INTERROGATIONS
SUB-GROUP: HEADMASTER
HUMAN COMPONENT: DR. MENTAX
FIRST APPEARANCE: THE TRANSFORMERS #38
"You cannot defeat me if you cannot remember
me."
Profile: Brain Freeze is a
diabolical interrogation expert for the Decepticons. After capturing
an unsuspecting Autobot, he learns what he can from them and then erases
the information from their minds. Most of the time, all his Autobot
victims experience is a loss of data. Every once in a while, he does
such a thorough job that portions of their personalities are missing as well.
Due to the meticulous manner in which he performs his work, few robots
ever remember Brain Freezeand even fewer realize what he is capable
of. Brain Freeze is binary bonded to Dr. Mentax, a former Nebulon
psychologist. Mentax was well renowned in his field until a malpractice
suit resulted in the loss of his medical license. Embittered and angry,
he turned to the Decepticon Headmasters, jumping at the chance to work with
patients again. Now, he uses his skills and knowledge of medicine to
assist in Brain Freeze's interrogations, making the Decepticon interrogator
even more effective than before.
Abilities: In jet mode, Brain
Freeze can travel up to 2000 mph. He is armed with two side-mounted
cryo-crystallizer cannons, capable of immobilizing Autobots by reducing their
circuitry to sub-zero temperatures in a matter of seconds. He also
transforms to a bipedal dinosaur mode capable of short bursts of flight,
using rockets in his legs. In this mode, he can create small, localized
earthquakes with a single stomp of his foot. He prefers using his robot
mode to conduct his interrogations, projecting psionic bursts through his
hands that can confuse and disorient his subjects as he extracts the
necessary information from their minds.
Weaknesses: Sometimes, Brain
Freeze suffers from the residual effects of his own psionic bursts. He
ends up forgetting the information he's learned during interrogations, which
can be problematic if he's already erased his subject's mind. Also,
crystalline particle build-up inside the barrels of his cryogenic cannons
can reduce their effectiveness, sometimes even causing them to backfire and
freeze his own systems.
