Jazz (One)

Jazz is an Autobot from One.

"Better just one leg than both, I guess."

Jazz is a rather unlucky miner, which might be why he doesn't think that highly of himself and his abilities. However, the right kind of encouragement just might give him the courage he needs...

No wing doors ≠ no style.

A cogless miner working in the same sector as Orion Pax and D-16 under the command of Elita-1, Jazz was almost killed when an unstable energon vein struck by Wheeljack caused the mineshaft to catastrophically collapse, pinning his leg under a large boulder. Orion and D-16 promptly went back to save him despite Elita urging them not to, managing to rescue Jazz in the nick of time at the cost of his pinned leg.

Jazz had gotten himself a new leg by the time Orion and his team returned to Iacon with their new transformation cogs. When Orion visited the miners to rally them into rising up against Sentinel Prime, Jazz expressed concern that the miners would be severely outnumbered against Sentinel and his army. However, Orion reassured Jazz that Elita was bringing more warriors to fight alongside them. An inspiring speech from Orion convinced Jazz and the other miners to take up arms and join the battle above.

After Orion—now rechristened Optimus Prime—rejuvenated Cybertron's energon supply with the Matrix of Leadership and returned all the miners' transformation cogs, Jazz was among the crowd, marveling at his new door-wings. One
