Arquebus' Bio
FUNCTION: Autobot Ground Assault Trooper
PROFILE: Arquebus is the epitome of the good soldier. A career military mech, Arquebus was trained at the Tyger Pax barracks of the pre-war Cybertronian Army. He attacked his basic training with gusto and still takes pleasure in completing arduous physical tasks. Give him a mission objective with a timeframe and he will try his utmost to do it quicker. Though he wouldn't miss the war should it end, it is his desire to life his entire life in the military, without it he would feel purposeless. Drilling himself rigorously is what he does to relax.
Arquebus joined the Altihex Blades after being liberated by them from a Polyhex prison camp. While he respects the service record of most of his fellow unit members, he finds himself at odds with Hotfoot and his, to Arquebus's optics, haphazard and unprofessional attitude.
ABILITIES: Armed with a Shield-mounted Adhesion Rifle, that fires quick-drying bursts of glue that unbreakably bonds metal to whatever it touches (and becomes his vehicle mode Turret-Mounted Adhesion Cannon), fitted with a detachable Thermal Bayonet.
Arquebus has excellent Field Craft understanding the difference between concealment from view and cover from fire, use of the shape of the ground and its features to move undetected, the skills of moving across ground and crossing obstacles, the ability to select good fire positions, lying up positions, camping positions and the like, the ability to observe effectively, penetrating camouflage, and the ability to detect where enemy fire is coming from using a number of techniques. He is also a formidable in Close Quarter Combatant whether armed or unarmed.
Equipped with an Adaptive Camouflage Matrix that allows him to alter the colours of his Disruptive Pattern camouflage to blend in with different surroundings.
Has a forward Deflector Screen Forcefield Projector that can generate an semi-spherical invisible barrier directly in front of him able to withstand penetration by all forms of projectiles, all wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation except those of extremely high intensity, and temperatures as high as 800,000 degrees Centigrade for a maximum 1 minute period.
In Heavy Assault Vehicle mode has a turret mounted Concussion Gun and his forward bulkhead can be reinforced with his forcefield for ramming and energy beam deflection. His top speed is 160 MPH and his adaptive wheelbase is more than a match for the toughest terrain.
WEAKNESSES: Even with limited use his Forcefield Projector is a massive drain of energy. His by-the-book tactical approach means he can be quite predictable and confounded by unconventional tactics.
