This guy's the Autobot Lyle Norg. Heck, seems like every good team's gotta have at least one (ours is Semi!)
23. Mirage
Function: Counter-intelligence
Mirage has an air about him of sophistication and intelligence, though some Autobots would call it snobbishness. He is a little bit on the cool side toward the rest of the Autobot team, and he doesn't really have any close friends. Though he performs his function to the team admirably, many of his teammates feel that there is something missing in his dedication to the Autobots. As such, he is always one of the first to be scrutinized if there is ever a hint of treason among the ranks. This is unfair to Mirage, because it isn't treason he feels... it's loneliness. Perhaps more than any other Autobot, he longs to be back home on Cybertron. The main thing that keeps him going on Earth is the hope that one day he will be back home. But though he isn't thrilled about the circumstances that has brought him to Earth, he's no traitor. His feelings of loneliness just isolate him, even from his own teammates.
Mirage's ability to make himself invisible and undetectable to sensors is indispensable to the Autobot cause. It's not only that he makes an incredible spy (that much is a given,) but in combat, his creative and many times ingenious uses of his special power are both thrilling and chilling to watch. He is one of the best Autobots at hand-to-hand combat, and, when used in concert with his invisibility, the martial abilities he posesses make him at extremely dangerous opponent. His above-average speed and firepower just add to the mix. One of Optimus Prime's most specialized and talented operatives, Mirage is always willing to do anything that will bring him just a little bit closer to once again setting foot on his beloved Cybertron.

Mirage seems like someone I'd like to team up with. It would be a lot less strain if my car had its own invisibility powers, instead of relying on a transparency field thrown by me.

Well you'd know better, but from the picture, it looks like Mirage can only fit one rider. If he can handle two, by all means.

Yeah, I'd have to crawl in behind you. I don't think any humans ever actually got in him, now that I think about it. Which is in itself interesting, since most Autobots carried a human at some point.
Still, though it would be tight and might require some creative readjusting, I bet we could make it work!
