He insists on being called this whenever he goes on a commando mission for [[Strong Bad]]. As seen, his uniform consists of a black two-piece stealth suit with a black snow cap over the top corner of his head.

The Cheat also portrays Firebert as a character in fictional productions seen in the [[Homestar Runner universe]]. Firebert is a member of the [[Cheat Commandos]], also appearing in a [[Puppet Time|puppet]] crossover with the [[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque series]]. Firebert is one of the Cheat Commandos featured in the first Cheat Commandos [[Store Toys|figurine set]].
+
Firebert later appeared as a character in the ''[[Cheat Commandos|Cheat Commandos Adventures]]'' cartoon show, presumably voiced by The Cheat. He makes The Cheat noises and is the only commando known to do so, while the other commandos speak intelligibly. Strong Bad plays with the Firebert [[Action Figure Character Variations|action figure]] in the [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos commercial]]. Strangely, Strong Bad speaks intelligibly when doing the voice of the Firebert toy, instead of imitating The Cheat. This may have been before Firebert's voice was established.

Both Strong Bad and [[Gunhaver]] think that Firebert is a terrible commando name. In [[Shopping for Danger]], Gunhaver assigns him to think of a better commando name. Despite this, [[Flashfight]] thinks it is an "exquisite commando name" and wishes not to fire him, lest the name go to waste. He seems to be the demolitions expert, as evidenced in the original commercial, where he blew up a large cliff, with [[Blue Laser]] operatives directly below it. Firebert is one of the Cheat Commandos featured in the first Cheat Commandos [[Store Toys|figurine set]]. In the email [[more armies]], The Cheat makes a public appearance as Firebert at the "Vaguely Military Career Fair" next to a sign that reads "Meet TV's Firebert". After some time with no visitors, he dejectedly changes "Firebert" to "[[Trogdor]]", which immediately draws a large crowd. He teams up with [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]] in [[Decemberween Dangeresque]] to find the missing [[Hot Jones]]. Firebert can and will eat anything with nutmeg on it, and used this to tactical advantage by eating the Christmas lights restraining him and Dangeresque.

Firebert is one of the main characters in the ''[[Cheat Commandos|Cheat Commandos Adventures]]'' cartoon show. While all the other characters speak normally, Firebert [[Lack of Intelligible Speech|seems to be voiced by The Cheat]]; much like The Cheat, other characters have no difficulty understanding what he saying. Before he was heard to speak in a cartoon, Strong Bad used a typical voice when playing with the Firebert [[Action Figure Character Variations|action figure]] in the [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos commercial]].

Firebert may be the team's demolitions expert: in the original commercial, he is seen blowing up a large cliff with [[Blue Laser]] operatives directly below it. Firebert can and will eat anything with nutmeg on it, and used this to a tactical advantage by eating Christmas lights restraining him and [[Dangeresque (character)|Dangeresque]].

Strong Bad thinks Firebert is "not a good commando name", a sentiment he has repeated [[@StrongBadActual|on Twitter]]. The packaging for the Firebert action figure similarly emphasizes that it is "Not a Good Commando Name!!" in lieu of a standard promotional line. This disapproval extends to the cartoon, where [[Gunhaver]] assigns him to think of a better commando name rather than join the team [[Shopping For Danger|on a mission]]. [[Flashfight]], whose thoughts and actions often run contrary to Gunhaver, considers Firebert to be "an exquisite commando name". The negativity has not gotten to The Cheat, who has made no attempt to change his commando name.

In another instance of less-than-positive reception, The Cheat made a public appearance as "TV's Firebert" at the [[more armies|Vaguely Military Career Fair]]. After some time with no visitors, he dejectedly changed the booth's sign to "[[Trogdor]]" instead of "Firebert", which immediately drew a large crowd.

When brainstorming commando names for The Cheat to use in the army email, [[The Brothers Chaps]] {{prs|908418632878837762|14|Sep|2017|alt=assembled a list of many names}}. Most of these would go on to be used by the Cheat Commandos cast.
