The most epicc Transformer in existence. Optimus Prime's second in command, Prowl is a highly skilled tactician and relies heavily on logic. He is a very useful Autobot to have during a battle. Many may see him as a jerk, but truly he is not. He's a badass.
Prowl is some form of police vehicle in his incarnations, mainly a police car, but he was a police motorcycle in Transformers Animated.
In fanfiction, Prowl is often given the nickname "Prowlie" or "Prowler." Most of the time he is not happy with such nicknames.
"Who is your favorite Transformer?"
"Prowl!"
"Why? He's a jerk!"
"No, he's just a badass."

A person, usually a woman, who is out looking for a male companion. She usually seeks a man with money, a nice car, and someone who pays for her drinks. Women can be on the prowl in packs, particularly in places like the club, at the mall, or on the streets. They often aggressively pursue their prey and will put it on them as soon as they are given the chance.
It seems like there are a lot of women on the prowl tonight. It looks like I'm getting lucky.
