Profile: Waspinator is the universe's whipping boy. If something goes wrong, it happens to him. If something blows up, he's usually at the epicenter of the explosion. He has been blasted, burned, shot down, torn up, crushed, slashed, smashed, bashed, and otherwise reduced to his component parts times beyond counting. Disturbingly, Rattrap has taken to collecting his severed components.
Waspinator's not the brightest 'bot in the Decepticon Army. Megatron has classified the harebrained Decepticon as expendable, much to Waspinator's dismay; he doesn't get much more respect from anyone else, either. His speech quirks don't help: he tends to refer to himself in the third person and to most other people by nicknames like "cat-bot" and "two-head". He's also a bit too fond of the letter "Z".
Waspinator may be dumb, but he's not stupid. He has caught on to his lot in life and tries to avoid his fate as often as possible... but fate always finds him. Thankfully, he's almost supernaturally durable and has survived the most devastating and humiliating of defeats.

Abilities: Waspinator is very speedy in Wasp form, being able to reach Mach 2.9 at top speed. He has a high pitch buzz when he flies, triggering the fear and uneasiness elements in friends and foes alike, that compaired with his fearsome appearence (For the most part) makes him a feasome opponent. He has great endurance, and it is a good thing too, for he seems to land in everything bad. He has a stinger on the back of the abdoman section of his Wasp and Robot mode. He can either fire it at an opponent, or he may stab them at close range. The stinger is filled with a deadly poison that slowly deteriorates the opponent unless a countermeasure has been provided. The intennea of his Wasp Form are supercharged with Ions so he may launch them at an opponent to disrtupt their electrical functions if it hits. As a hidden weapon, he has two hidden missile launchers that are located under his wings, these are missiles that home into a target in the air or on the ground. As another weapon he has a stinger pistol that can either fire a barb that uses the same poison as his stinger, or as an Ion Blaster.

Weaknesses: He almost always seems to land in almost every Explosion, and he secretly is getting fed up with it.

Sample Post:

Above Central City, Earth

Waspinator soared above the City below him with ease, and for once he actually he wasn't going to be slagged. That hope was short lived when two FA-22 Raptors sped up next to him and, it seemed like, they were trying to radio him or their supiriors about seeing a giant wasp, but that he couldn't have! His cover was blown! His wings emitting a high pitch and annoying sound, he sped to his left and grabbed the plane and stung it.

"Zee you later humaaanzzzz!!!" He said as he began to swing the plane about to get it to slam into the Jet's wing man.

"Eh?" Waspinator said dumbfounded as two billows of smoke came from below the Raptor and slammed into Waspinator.

Waspinator called out as he pushed off from the Jet, sending it spiraling down into the city below. He then transformed and hovered as he fired off his Ion Pistol at the location where the Jet fell.

Suddenly he thought of something, where was the other plane? He turned around to see where it went, but was answered when it turned out to be speeding behind him and collided head-on with Waspinator. He fired his barb at the plane and it went through the windshield and stabbed the pilot. Suddenly more smoke covered Waspinator's face.

"Ohhh nooo..." Waspinator groaned as the missiles hit him square on the head, sending him off of the plane and onto the roof of the city below, and he stayed active long enough to see the jet fall to its doom and a Seeker come to evac him.

He awoke in a CR Chamber on the Ultrax, wondering where he was. He looked around and found his gaze falling on Ramjet, the Seeker who had "rescued" him. He looked away and rubbed the back of his head, then said aloud, "Ohh, why does me Wazzpinator have Headache all over...?"

A few things need to be addressed. His height has to be brought down to 21ft; the same height as the Insecticons. According to his Beast Wars (Hasbro) tech specs his endurance is listed as 5. Now, I have a question for you, are you basing him on the Beast Wars (Hasbro) version, or the Beast Wars (Takara) Transmetal version? With the Transmetal version his endurance is 7. You can either or, but don't mix the two. Lower his tech skill to 4. Have him listed with a Subgroup: Insecticon. Let me know what version you're interested in using.

Profile: Scourge is the most fearsome and implacable hunter-killer created by Megatron in the same experiment that made Cyclonus from the wreckage of dead Decepticons. Scourge is leader of "The Sweeps," a specially created wolf pack of tracker-terminators designed by Megatron himself to hunt down and eradicate Autobots and their human allies. The Sweeps, however, have little respect for Scourge, but they are scared to death of Cyclonus. Being as strong as Scourge is, he becomes arrogant, and this proves to be his only weakness.

Abilities: Scourge is possessed of scanning and locating equipment, which can detect machine or human presence even if it is as small as an amoeba in the ocean or a wind-up toy. And he is merciless and capable of using such weapons as acid rays, which dissolve his targets, laser blasters, disintegrator beams, and assorted demolition and fusion devices in eliminating his prey. He can transform to a scouring vehicle, a marauding automotive mode which handles any terrain and scans for "survivors."
Weaknesses: Scourge has no physical wweaknesses, but his only weakness is his arrogance.
Sample Post:

Nebulos National Forest

This one was proving to be a harder one to find, in Scourge's opoinion. The mech he was following had stolen some plans that not even Scourge knew about before he was briefed behind closed doors. No matter, he was there to eliminate the Mech, and the plans.

"Sweeps! To the air!" Scourge ordered to three Sweeps behind him who were grumbling about being there.

They looked about for a couple of seconds, then transformed and took to the skies to scout, leaving Scourge alone on the ground to search for the Mech they were following. Suddenly, he heard a twig snap. He twirled around to see a fleeing young Autobot, who had just transformed into a Cybertronian Pickup and began to drive off.
Scourge quickly transformed and sped after him, dodging trees narrowly and firing several disintegrator beams at the fleeing Autobot.

"Sweeps!! SWEEPS!!!!" Scourge called to his men who seemed to have been disappeared at this point in time.

He continued on the trail of the Autobot and continued with the disintegrator beams. He stopped and transformed and let the Autobot gain some ground on him. He pointed his weapon at a tree that would give way in the correct direction and fired at the base. His aim and planning were true, the tree gave way and began to fall in the direction of the Autobot.

With a scream, the Autobot was crushed by the tree. Scourge made his way to the Autobot to check the kill. He kicked the tree off of the Autobot, revealing a wounded Autobot Scout.

"P-Please! D-Don't!" The Autobot tossed Scourge a small data disk, "You can keep your stupid plans! I wish I'd never seen them!"

"Good." Scourge said with a devieous smile as he caught the disk.
He fired one disintegrator beam, disintegrating it in the palm of Scourge's hand. He turned to the Autobot and placed his foot on the Autobot's throat.

"Such a terrible thing, I was hoping you would put up a better fight." And with that, Scourge fired an acid ray into the spark chamber, it couldn't have closed in time, the Acid works too well at close range.

The light faded from the Optics and the Autobot relaxed, dead. Just then, his Sweeps came down and transformed in front of him.

"You called?" One of them asked.

"In fact, I did! What took you so long!" Scourge yelled.

"We got held up, uh, Autobot fliers." One of them obviously lied.

Scourge grunted, he would let it slide, it had no negative effect on the mission, but next time, there would be consequences.

Scourge is a pretty high ranking officer and right now you're currently playing Jazz. Settle in with your other characters for a bit and we'll see what we can do about another high ranker in the future.

Bomb-Burst for Nebulos, please.

Name: Bomb-Burst
Allegiance: Decepticon
Function: Predator
Alt. mode: VTOL Hovercraft
Weapons: Dual Lasers, Energo-Battle Axe
Height: 28 ft / 8.53 m

Profile: Bomb-Burst is a loner who hunts from the shadows. Cybertronian myth suggests Bomb-Burst was designed to be the ultimate predator in darkness, and his horrific reputation lives up to this legend. Bomb-Burst enjoys silently stalking a group of Autobots, picking them off one by one by dragging his victims into the dark to suck them dry of energon. Sometimes he leaves his victim's grotesquely mangled husk for the others to find later, and other times he just lets the Autobots wonder what happened to their missing comrade. Both methods invariably unnerve his targets, which pleases Bomb-Burst greatly. He's excellent at his job, but unable to relate personally to most other Decepticons.

Abilities: Subject transforms into a nearly silent vehicle armed with dual lasers that he also uses in robot mode. He is extremely agile in both modes. Specially designed fangs allow Subject to pierce most metals, sucking any energy out. In robot mode, he has great strength. Subject also wields an energo-battle axe in combat.

Weaknesses: Subject's optics are sensitive to bright light; direct exposure to it can easily blind him. He must refuel or drain other Transformers' energy regularly or risk stasis lock.

Sample Post:

Footfalls struck the ground with great rapidity, creating a constant rhythm of deep sounding thuds tearing through the silence nestled over the forested area east of the small town of Gnimid. Leaves and twigs crunched and snapped, yielding to Marjex's descending footwear as he ran as fast as his legs would permit him. He refused to throw glances over his shoulders, terrified of what might occupy his vision. His legs felt as if they had been submerged in a vicious acid and his heart slammed against his chest, but Marjex pressed on, determined to elude whatever was in pursuit.

His survival depended on it.

Sweat travelled down his face, numerous streams of water passing through the terrain that was his features. He had been running for close to three minutes, an eternity when death had been on his trail the entire time threatening to steal his life for its own designs. Marjex turned sharply, taking refuge in amongst a couple of large bushes huddled together. He dared not to stand up; exposure of any kind would reveal his location.

He was breathing heavily, greedily consuming air as he took in each breath. What the hell was going on? And what was after him? The absurdity of the situation... Surely he was having a nightmare. Nothing that horrific existed in Gnimid, on Nebulos.

Until now. Until a couple of weeks ago where something had been haunting the fringes of the town, establishing its own hunting grounds there. Many people who ventured into those parts did not return—but if they did they reappeared in the town square as mangled corpses void of certain body parts. But it wasn't based exclusively at its crude area. It was moving, creeping towards Gnimid, the townsfolk completely unaware.

Like Marjex, the forest was motionless, as if paralysed with fear, too.

By then, rumours of a monster circulated throughout the town, piercing the peoples' minds with a variety of grotesque ideas. Marjex and his friends, however, claimed immunity to such nonsense; they still visited the fringes of the town whenever they pleased, day or night. And if they happened to encounter what was terrorising Gnimid, they would deal with it, simple as that.

The fools.

“You're not what I need, but still very amusing, nonetheless.”

Marjex's head shot up, attempting to trace the origin of the voice. A difficult task considering night had coiled itself around Gnimid.

His search was disrupted by a hand spearing into the bushes, seizing the teenager. It extracted him from his hiding spot and lifted him to meet the sadistic gaze of his pursuer. Marjex writhed violently, but was secured well and truly within the confines of the hand. A hand that concluded with razor-sharp claws.

“Please...please let me go. I—I didn't do anything! I'm just a kid; let me go!”

Even though this species didn't provide him with the correct necessities, Bomb-Burst had discovered other methods of quenching his unrelenting thirst. What they did offer was an excellent source of entertainment. The panic painted on their faces, the screams that erupted from their mouths, the way his claws and fangs felt as they eased though their flesh: that was sheer ecstasy for Bomb-Burst. Few things were superior to the intense thrills of a hunt. Very few things.

Bomb-Burst continued to stare at Marjex, lip components curling in satisfaction, unveiling long, pointed fangs. “I think I'll keep you here. For the moment, anyway.”

Sweat poured down Marjex's face, terror possessing him. “Wha—what do you mean?”

“Well, you and I still need to have our fun.” Bomb-Burst allowed a chuckle to escape from the depths of his vocaliser, drawing Marjex closer to his face-plate. “Tell me, have you ever seen a stomach before?”

Marjex returned his stare, unable to form any words.

Profile: Former Sub-commander of the General Skyquake's Seekers, and current leader of a brigade, the young and eager Leozack is secretly very treacherous, though he preaches honor and loyalty. However Leozack sees that he is actually very loyal. To himself of course. He aspires to become leader of the Decepticons and has already won troops over to his side.
Leozack was born the elder brother of Lyzack. At the begging of his career, he began as simply a bodyguard for Emirate Xeon, before joining the Decepticon army. About the time of the revolution he joined the (then new) Seeker unit lead by Skyquake. He soon was transferred, having displayed the necessary skills to become stronger. He moved quickly in the ranks and now leads a brigade under Deathsaurus.

Abilities: Leozack has a plethora of abilities ranging from his skill with the katana, to laser beams from his sonic rifle, to missiles built into his jet template. Leozack is awesomely strong. He is tough to take down due to his ninja skills and airborne assault expertise. He also has his Jet attack which is him attacking with everything in his arsenal.

Weaknesses: Leozack is in particular extremely cocky and this is generally his biggest weakness. Also he has exceptionally low stamina, due to the fact he has experimental technology. Sometimes after using his Jet Attack he collapses on the field of battle.

Sample Post: Leozack moved through the streets of Iacon as quickly as he hacked through them. "No Autobot makes it out alive!!" he raged as he blasted through a doorway. "The first to find the weapon will be paid 10,000 energon chips." Leozack found that the best way to get soldiers to move quicker is to bribe them. "Commander Leozack, I have found an Autobot soldier. Perhaps he will tell us where we must go to find the weapon." Leozack smiled. Take me to him.

The Autobot was a young one perhaps one of the newer generations of warrior. "Nice way of treating prisoners," he remarked. Leozack did not seem to be angered. "Listen to me Autobot," he said,"If you want to live you should not insult your captors." He continued, "Tell me where Project X-47 is and I may spare your life." Suddenly the Autobot broke free from the chains that binded him. Leozack recognized his fighting style as he killed a guard. "You practice Crystalocution. I am slightly impressed." He pulled out his sword. He danced toward his foe swiftly. His opponents skill was good but his was better. he found a opening in the Autobots defenses beneath the arm he quickly struck there. His opponent still dazed he struck again and once more. the Autobot fell to his knees. "A good fight, but ultimately futile. You thought you could win but you couldn't. Now tell me the location of the weapon." "It is in room E-2 of the Chiroptera the shuttle I was in. Please spare my life." Leozack slashed him down. "He dishonors his end of the bargain, I dishonor mine.

What they did offer was an excellent source of entertainment. The panic painted on their faces, the screams that erupted from their mouths, the way his claws and fangs felt as they eased though their flesh: that was sheer ecstasy for Bomb-Burst. Few things were superior to the intense thrills of a hunt. Very few things.

Bomb-Burst continued to stare at Marjex, lip components curling in satisfaction, unveiling long, pointed fangs. “I think I'll keep you here. For the moment, anyway.”

Sweat poured down Marjex's face, terror possessing him. “Wha—what do you mean?”

“Well, you and I still need to have our fun.” Bomb-Burst allowed a chuckle to escape from the depths of his vocaliser, drawing Marjex closer to his face-plate. “Tell me, have you ever seen a stomach before?”

Marjex returned his stare, unable to form any words.

Looks good. Approved. Sick him on those 'Bots!

Profile: Former Sub-commander of the General Skyquake's Seekers, and current leader of a brigade, the young and eager Leozack is secretly very treacherous, though he preaches honor and loyalty. However Leozack sees that he is actually very loyal. To himself of course. He aspires to become leader of the Decepticons and has already won troops over to his side.
Leozack was born the elder brother of Lyzack. At the begging of his career, he began as simply a bodyguard for Emirate Xeon, before joining the Decepticon army. About the time of the revolution he joined the (then new) Seeker unit lead by Skyquake. He soon was transferred, having displayed the necessary skills to become stronger. He moved quickly in the ranks and now leads a brigade under Deathsaurus.

Abilities: Leozack has a plethora of abilities ranging from his skill with the katana, to laser beams from his sonic rifle, to missiles built into his jet template. Leozack is awesomely strong. He is tough to take down due to his ninja skills and airborne assault expertise. He also has his Jet attack which is him attacking with everything in his arsenal.

Weaknesses: Leozack is in particular extremely cocky and this is generally his biggest weakness. Also he has exceptionally low stamina, due to the fact he has experimental technology. Sometimes after using his Jet Attack he collapses on the field of battle.

Sample Post: Leozack moved through the streets of Iacon as quickly as he hacked through them. "No Autobot makes it out alive!!" he raged as he blasted through a doorway. "The first to find the weapon will be paid 10,000 energon chips." Leozack found that the best way to get soldiers to move quicker is to bribe them. "Commander Leozack, I have found an Autobot soldier. Perhaps he will tell us where we must go to find the weapon." Leozack smiled. Take me to him.

The Autobot was a young one perhaps one of the newer generations of warrior. "Nice way of treating prisoners," he remarked. Leozack did not seem to be angered. "Listen to me Autobot," he said,"If you want to live you should not insult your captors." He continued, "Tell me where Project X-47 is and I may spare your life." Suddenly the Autobot broke free from the chains that binded him. Leozack recognized his fighting style as he killed a guard. "You practice Crystalocution. I am slightly impressed." He pulled out his sword. He danced toward his foe swiftly. His opponents skill was good but his was better. he found a opening in the Autobots defenses beneath the arm he quickly struck there. His opponent still dazed he struck again and once more. the Autobot fell to his knees. "A good fight, but ultimately futile. You thought you could win but you couldn't. Now tell me the location of the weapon." "It is in room E-2 of the Chiroptera the shuttle I was in. Please spare my life." Leozack slashed him down. "He dishonors his end of the bargain, I dishonor mine.

Holomatter Avatar: A leftover from a previous assignment, Magnus’s avatar is a bald, green-skinned Nebulan male. He is dressed as a security officer.

Profile: Ultra Magnus is the brother of Optimus Prime. In the waning days of the Golden Age, Optimus was a humble archivist named Optronix, and Magnus was a soldier in the Autobot Security Force. While his brother was following in the footsteps of their maker, the Elder Alpha Trion, Magnus was the prize protégé of Sentinel Prime. He studied strategy and tactics, history, martial arts, and many other subjects at the feet of the Autobot leader. He was a natural; excelling in whatever his mentor chose to teach. There were whispers that Sentinel was grooming Magnus as his successor, but he paid them no heed.

Yet when Sentinel Prime fell to Megatron, it was not Ultra Magnus that was chosen. Optimus Prime became the new leader of the embattled Autobots. While as surprised as anyone else at Optronix’s elevation, Magnus supported his brother completely. He helped bring the Autobot Command around to the new Prime’s side. He performed valiantly at every turn, fulfilling the potential Sentinel Prime had seen in him. While a natural leader, it seemed he was content simply to serve.

The truth was more complicated. When Optimus was selected over him to lead, it was a confirmation of every doubt and fear Magnus had ever had. He was unworthy. Feeling sure he had no business leading, Ultra Magnus dedicated himself to simply being the best soldier in the Autobots. Let Optimus lead; he would see this war won, or die trying.

[From the Datatracks of Optimus Prime, Autobot Supreme Commander] Infinitely reliable, fair, and completely trustworthy, Ultra Magnus is an Autobot to whom I'd not only entrust my own life, but the lives of my soldiers as well. The problem is that while I offer that trust without hesitation, my brother continues to doubt his own abilities. He'd prefer to follow orders and work on a strictly tactical level - which he always does brilliantly, improvising things on the battlefield that the most skilled military planners could only dream of imitating. Magnus is instinctively a better leader than most who've groomed themselves for the role over a lifetime, and everyone who's ever served alongside him knows that...the only problem is convincing him to believe it, too.

Abilities: Magnus has incredible strength, endurance, and intelligence. He is an accomplished soldier, and tactician, not to mention a field commander without equal. He is considered one of the greatest masters of the ancient martial art of Diffusion. Magnus wears a suit of Apex Armor, among the finest ever produced. He is rarely seen without it. This armor is equipped with two missile launchers, each capable of hitting a target at a distance of 10 miles. Additionally, he wields a powerful laser rifle. They are all usable in both modes. In vehicular mode, he consists of two modules. Magnus himself becomes a white tractor unit capable of reaching speeds of nearly 200 miles per hour. His Apex Armor becomes a vehicle transport trailer capable of carrying several mid-sized vehicular Autobots.

Weaknesses: When he doesn't allow his self-doubt to cripple him, Magnus has no known weaknesses. He just needs to learn that those doubts are an indulgence he must sacrifice in order to truly lead.

Writing Sample

It was a dark day in Cybertron during the civil war between Autobots and Decepticons. A transport ship filled with soldiers was heading to the battle-field, a territory controlled by Decepticons. inside the ship was Ulra Magnus, he will be the commander in this battle since Optimus is busy risking his life somewhere else.

The ship landed in a safe place where it unloaded Magnus and the rest of the soldiers. The Army of Autobots headed into battle, the Decepticon's scanners detected the approaching Autobots. When Megatron knew about the incoming attack he decided to send a force commanded by Shockwave.

>>Enemy forces detected, be careful<< Ultra Magnus sent a Transmission to fellow Autobots.

Soon the Autobot and Decepeticon forced has clashed, and the battle-field was on fire.

Ultra Magnus was used his Laser Rifle against enemy forces, he suddenly started to be attacked by bullets from he right, He looked to his right to find four of Decepticons attacking him.

Magnus lunched 3 Missiles from his Missile Launcher, destroying the four Transformers instantly.

As the battle continued Autobots seemed to have a slight advantage against Decepticons and are winning the battle, and the battle seems to be close to end as Ultra Magnus met Shockwave during the battle.

'' What? Shockwave, as thought you should be in retreat by now '' said Ultra Magnus to Shockwave

''I am no coward Magnus, your end shall be here'' said Shockwave.

The two started to fight. Magnus started with a fist attack, but Shockwave countered the attack my catching Magnus fist with his hand, then he pushed Magnus fist then delivered by his own a successful fist attack on the face.

''Your easier then i expected'' said Shockwave.

''Ok then, but could you handle this!'' said Ultra Magnus.

The Autobot used launched three four missiles at Shockwave, which resulted to the Decepticon to fall at the ground, but Shockwave stood on feet again. And again Magnus launched four more missiles at Shockwave, but he stood on his feet again. Ultra Magnus wanted to fire more missiles but he found that he is out of ammo. Shockwave transformed his hand into a gun-barrel and kept firing at Magnus.

Ultra Magnus Transformer to a car carrier and he drives away.

''I thought he won't give up so easily'' said Shockwave.

Ultra Magnus didn't retreat, he actually drove around Shockwave to make a surprise attack. Shockwave heard the sound of a car approaching, he looked behind him to find Magnus (in alt. mode) driving heading to him. Ultra Magnus crushed Shockwave, then Magnus returned back into a robot.

''This what happens to a Decepticon like you'' Said Ultra Magnus to the grounded Shockwave

Then an extremely large force approaching, he know that the Autobot forces in the area couldn't beat them, Magnus sent a transmission to Autobots to retreat.

And the battle ended with the retreat of Autobots.

Ok, for reals this time... I'd like him to start on Earth.

Name: Huffer
Allegiance: Autobot
Sub-group: Minicars
Function: Construction Engineer
Alt. mode: Semi-Truck
Weapons: None
Special Abilities: Arm sensors can test materials for strength, heat, resistance, elasticity, etc. Extremely strong. Superior mathematical and geometrical abilities.
Height: 15ft/4.572m
Quote: "Molecular structure is the key to success."

Strength: 7
Intelligence: 8
Speed: 5
Endurance: 7
Rank: 6
Courage: 8
Firepower: 1
Skill: 9

Bio: Huffer, as described by Bumblebee, looks at the world "through sludge-colored windshields." Huffer is dour. He says very little and when he does speak, it's usually to grumble. Huffer's pessimism extends even to his job specialty. He'll grumble that it can't be done and then build the most complex mechanized fortress imaginable. Sometimes it seems he can whip up a suspension bridge out of bobby pins and glue. Huffer isn't too sociable, but in any sort of difficulty he is absolutely reliable. Optimus Prime knows that Huffer secretly misses Cybertron and longs to return there.

Abilities:A complex system of sensors in his arms allows Huffer to test various materials, some of which he uses in construction, for various properties such as tensile strength, heat resistance, elasticity, etc. Although lacking weapons, he is extremely strong and can lift 40,000 pounds. His mathematical and geometrical abilities exceed those of all the other Autobots and help him in his construction designs.

Weaknesses: Has no firepower capabilities and does not carry any sort of gun.

Sample post: Desert, some distance outside Las Vegas, Nevada

Huffer's optics scanned the red dirt below and around him, waiting for the perfect spot to present itself. Not that he was expecting it to. Nothing was ever perfect on this planet.
'What are we waiting for Huffer?' one of the other Autobots chirped, 'just pick a spot already!'
'Shut your unit!' The engineer retorted, 'Do you know what would happen if we built this outpost in the wrong spot? If there's even a slight unevenness, even a fraction of subsidence, the entire building's integrity would be compromised. we might as well balance the lab on top of a tree! Not that I understand why Perceptor wants his new lab up in the air anyhow; surely underground would be a safer place for it? But then, what do I know? I'm just a lowly engineer, tasked with building an unecessary outpost laboratory that I'll probably never get finished anyway in the middle of a desert on a backwater world that isn't even my real home...there! Place the foundations there - that's the perfect spot!' Huffer gestured towards a point in the ground and his team immediately began moving the excavation machine and the foundation poles into position.
Huffer watched them working. He disliked having a team under him; he was a faster and better engineer than the lot of them put together - they were rookies; unreliable, a liability. But the orders had been clear: they needed training, needed experience. "The Autobots needed more engineers like you, Huffer" Prime had said to him before he set off to Nevada. 'More like me huh?' Huffer pondered on this 'I suppose it would be good to have a few more Autobots around who realised how slagging terrible everything is most of the time,' Huffer's thoughts were cast back to Cybertron; to building great towering structures that glittered under the sky; glittered in a way none of these earth metals could even compare to. He remembered huge, complex fortresses, perfectly designed to be impenetrable to the enemy but easily accessible to any Autobot who approached it. And further back than that, he dimly recalled designing and creating other buildings, buildings without weapons or armour-coating...

Huffer allowed himself to indulge in this daydream for a few moments more, and then, snapped out of it by the grim, tiresome hazards of reality he called out to one of his team 'No not like that! You're gonna get us all killed! Give it here, let me show you...'

You can check the Canon Roster list. Just remember that the list is not complete, so if there is a character not on the list you're interested in just ask in the chatterbox if they're a playable character. One of the staff will let you know.

ok, i found a charactar suitable for me, i don't think it's necessary to post another writing sample since the first one is accepted.

Name: Air Raid
Allegiance: Autobot
Sub-group: Aerialbots
Function: Warrior
Alt. Mode: (Cybertron) Cybertronian Jet, (Earth) Heavily modified F-16
Weapons:
- Torque Rifle
- Air-to-air heat-seeking missiles
Height: 24 ft.
Quote: "If you look first, you may not leap"

Strength: 5
Intelligence: 7
Dexterity: 8
Speed: 9
Endurance: 7
Courage: 10
Firepower: 8
Accuracy: 7
Melee: 8
Tech Skill: 5
Charisma: 5
Rank: 5

Profile: Of all Aerialbots, Air Raid is the most spontaneous and fearless. More concerned with enjoying himself than his own mortality, Air Raid will fly right into a squad of Decepticons with his guns blazing rather than fire at them from a safe, long range distance. Air Raid fears that thinking too much might make him a liability to his comrades, so he just acts instead. The other Aerialbots wish Air Raid to be more careful, but they apreciate his unscontrained, proactive actitude.

Abilities: Air Raid can fly at speeds of up to Mach 5 and has a range of 1500 miles. He can shoot air-to-air heat-seeking missiles and, in robot mode, carries a torque rifle whose beam can apply up to 80,000 psi of rotational force to any object. Only the strongest materials can withstand warping and breaking under such pressure.

Weaknesses: His reckless behavior often leaves Air Raid exposed to greater odds than he can reasonably expect to handle.

Sample post:

It was another day at earth, and another day in the battle between Autobots and Decepticon. Texas was on fire when a battle between the two sides begun there.

''We must attack from air, it the best thing to do here'' said Air Raid to Silverbot.

''Stand your ground, the Decepticon have heavy air forces, if you try to fly they will blow you up!'' said Silverbot.

The Decepticon and Autobots were equal, no one is winning and no one is losing. Air Raid was tired from waiting, and he was about to Transform.

''Grrrr...the only way to win this battle is to Fly!'' said Air Raid.

Air Raid transformed into his alternate mode and started to shoot deadly seeking missiles, soon the Decepticon's air forces started retreat.

Air Raid thought that the battle ended, Starscream who was also in his alternate mode, surprised Air Raid with a deadly attack, heavily damaging the Autobot.

Air Raid was forced to return to robot mode then felt to ground.

Starscream approached the Damaged Autobot and returned to robot mode.

''Now it time to finish you'' said Starscream to Air Raid.

Air Raid thought it was his end, but suddenly Optimus came running to stop Starscream.

''Leave him alone'' said Optimus

''Well this more fun'' said Starscream.

''Air Raid, retreat so you can get repaired'' said Prime.

Air Raid still had energy to stand of feet, so he escaped from the battle-field.

The sample is riddled with grammar mistakes. It also consists of nothing but dialog. We'd like to see more of what the character is thinking and feeling, not just what he has to say.

Also, please turn off your sig in all of the RPG forums.

Bio: Huffer, as described by Bumblebee, looks at the world "through sludge-colored windshields." Huffer is dour. He says very little and when he does speak, it's usually to grumble. Huffer's pessimism extends even to his job specialty. He'll grumble that it can't be done and then build the most complex mechanized fortress imaginable. Sometimes it seems he can whip up a suspension bridge out of bobby pins and glue. Huffer isn't too sociable, but in any sort of difficulty he is absolutely reliable. Optimus Prime knows that Huffer secretly misses Cybertron and longs to return there.

Abilities:A complex system of sensors in his arms allows Huffer to test various materials, some of which he uses in construction, for various properties such as tensile strength, heat resistance, elasticity, etc. Although lacking weapons, he is extremely strong and can lift 40,000 pounds. His mathematical and geometrical abilities exceed those of all the other Autobots and help him in his construction designs.

Weaknesses: Has no firepower capabilities and does not carry any sort of gun.

Sample post: Desert, some distance outside Las Vegas, Nevada

Huffer's optics scanned the red dirt below and around him, waiting for the perfect spot to present itself. Not that he was expecting it to. Nothing was ever perfect on this planet.

'What are we waiting for Huffer?' one of the other Autobots chirped, 'just pick a spot already!'

'Shut your unit!' The engineer retorted, 'Do you know what would happen if we built this outpost in the wrong spot? If there's even a slight unevenness, even a fraction of subsidence, the entire building's integrity would be compromised. we might as well balance the lab on top of a tree! Not that I understand why Perceptor wants his new lab up in the air anyhow; surely underground would be a safer place for it? But then, what do I know? I'm just a lowly engineer, tasked with building an unecessary outpost laboratory that I'll probably never get finished anyway in the middle of a desert on a backwater world that isn't even my real home...there! Place the foundations there - that's the perfect spot!'

Huffer gestured towards a point in the ground and his team immediately began moving the excavation machine and the foundation poles into position.

Huffer watched them working. He disliked having a team under him; he was a faster and better engineer than the lot of them put together - they were rookies; unreliable, a liability. But the orders had been clear: they needed training, needed experience. "The Autobots needed more engineers like you, Huffer" Prime had said to him before he set off to Nevada. 'More like me huh?' Huffer pondered on this 'I suppose it would be good to have a few more Autobots around who realised how slagging terrible everything is most of the time,'

Huffer's thoughts were cast back to Cybertron; to building great towering structures that glittered under the sky; glittered in a way none of these earth metals could even compare to. He remembered huge, complex fortresses, perfectly designed to be impenetrable to the enemy but easily accessible to any Autobot who approached it. And further back than that, he dimly recalled designing and creating other buildings, buildings without weapons or armour-coating...

Huffer allowed himself to indulge in this daydream for a few moments more, and then, snapped out of it by the grim, tiresome hazards of reality he called out to one of his team 'No not like that! You're gonna get us all killed! Give it here, let me show you...'

Remove the 'Skill' stat, it's not used in this game. I also wanted to be sure you know that the Autobots and the Decepticons are still under the infiltration protocols and that both factions are now in orbit on their own ships above Earth.

Alright, here's Breakaway- based off of ROTF Breakaway. Some of the stats might be a little weird, because I tried to keep them as loyal to his toy's stats as I could while still keeping the total to 70. Not sure I'm too fond of him in the sample post, either, but I'll fix that as he goes along in the story.


Name: Breakaway
Allegiance: Autobot
Function: Warrior
Alt. Mode: Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II
Weapons: Fusion beam sniper rifle, mini burst gun (gatling gun), missiles and bombs in vehicle mode.

Profile: In an army dominated by the ground bound, Breakaway stands out as an Autobot with flight capabilities. Not only that, but in a straight line, there aren't many fliers that keep up with him. In battle he uses this to his advantage, dispensing with any aerial acrobatics, and simply relying on bombing runs at super-sonic speeds to get the job done.

As a young Autobot flier, Breakaway idolizes the Aerialbots, and dreams of one day being good enough to join their team. This often leads to him showing off or taking on more than he can handle in an effort to impress his superiors and those around him. After all, impress the right bots, and who knows…

Abilities: Breakaway is an exceptional flier, capable of streaking past conventional jets at speeds of up to Mach 3, and can even reach escape velocity if flying fast enough. While he is able to hold his own in an aerial dogfight, Breakaway’s most known tactic is flying overhead and bombing the enemy below, sacrificing accuracy for firepower. He is capable of carrying more bombs and explosives for special missions, but rarely does so because it tends to slow him down and adds unnecessary weight and mass.

Weaknesses: Breakaway is fastest when flying in a straight line- making sharp turns or fancy acrobatics requires him to slow down and reveal how clumsy he really is when made to fly in such ways. He doesn’t care to take the time to line up shots or aim his weapons, preferring to unload all his firepower at the target and hope to get a few good hits in, so his rifle is reserved for special missions where stealth and accuracy are required. Breakaway is often brash and fast-acting, putting the safety of himself and others behind his personal dreams and ambitions. When made to slow down and think, however, Breakaway shows that he has a good spark and really just yearns for acceptance.

Sample Post: Farstar- Corridors

Breakaway had woken to a disaster. He was taking a stasis nap in the quarters he shared with just about everyone else on the ship, when he was unceremoniously woken by an explosion that rocked the whole ship. He had been thrown from the room, groggy and still powering up, and his optics were immediately rewarded with the horrible sight of wreckage and fire, mechs and machines running everywhere, panels torn from the walls and wires dangling from the ceiling.

As he was taught to do, he had immediately adjusted to the situation and began helping bots trapped under rubble and clearing away debris, which often included the dead bodies of those many unfortunates who had just been in the wrong place at the wrong time. This had all happened what seemed like cycles ago, but Breakaway knew it had been only kliks. The bodies were now clear and most of the bots trapped were helped or being helped- but there was still so much devastation. He had no idea what to do; the adrenaline of waking up into this madness was wearing off, and Breakaway was now stumbling aimless and terrified down the corridors of the ship.

He had never been in a situation like this before. He was a warrior, sure, he had seen battle, but this was something entirely new to him. There was nothing he could do. He was a fighter, not an engineer, and this was no place for a fighter. Suddenly another explosion shook Breakaway out of his daze, and looking around, he found himself in engineering.

Just great, Breakaway thought to himself. What am I supposed to do here?

"Hey, you! Flyboy!" Breakaway heard some bot call gruffly to him from further in the room. He tried to ignore the voice, pretend like he didn't see the bot calling him, struggling to hold up some big cube with pipes and wires sticking out of every side of it.

"I know you hear me! Get over here, kid, and help me!" The bot yelled at him. It was obvious he was in trouble, and everyone else around him was too occupied to help him. Tentatively, Breakaway stepped into the room, knowing that he would be stuck here for a while now, running from engineer to mechanic, getting yelled at and fumbling through things he didn't understand. But at least it was something.

His walk turned into a slow trot as he jogged around the rubble and groups of bots huddled around sparking machines that Breakaway didn't recognize.

"What can I do?" Breakaway asked the old bot upon reaching him.

"Just hold this up so I can weld it back onto the wall," the mech responded, shifting the weight of the cube higher onto his shoulder and trying to step back at the same time so the Autobot flier could get to it.

"What's going on out there?" Breakaway asked as he took the cube and hoisted it up against the wall. "I woke up to an explosion, and now there's chaos all over the ship."

The crusty old mechanic slid a welding torch out of his arm and lowered a visor over his optics as he responded. "There's been an attack by some Decepticon ships, I think. I'm not too clear on the details, we don't get much news down here in this pit. Shift it a little to the left."

Breakaway obliged and the mechanic leaned in and began to weld the cube, sparks flying and light reflecting off his visor in flashes. "Decepticons?" Breakaway repeated. That was something he recognized.

"A few of their ships have us cornered just off the surface of some planet," the mechanic mumbled. "The Technobots have been running all over trying to get the ship in order again so we can fight back, or get out of here, or something." He leaned back as he retracted the torch and visor. "Scattorshot's right over there, as a matter of fact," he grunted and pointed to a corner of the huge room where the Technobot leader was indeed attempting to aid a few younger-looking engineers.

"Alright, I think that's all the help I'll need from you, kid, thanks fer your help," the bot wiped his servos off on his thighs and looked up, but Breakaway was already gone.

---

Pressing an intercom box toggle, Scattershot opened a shipwide channel. "Strafe, Afterburner, Nosecone, report to the bridge. Times up." The Technobot looked down and was immediately greeted by the sight of a young brown-colored jet with his hand up in a salute.

"Autobot warrior Breakaway reporting for duty, Commander Scattorshot, sir! Ready and willing to help kick some Decepticon skidplates!"

"Just hold this up so I can weld it back onto the wall," the mech responded, shifting the weight of the cube higher onto his shoulder and trying to step back at the same time so the Autobot flier could get to it.

"What's going on out there?" Breakaway asked as he took the cube and hoisted it up against the wall. "I woke up to an explosion, and now there's chaos all over the ship."

The crusty old mechanic slid a welding torch out of his arm and lowered a visor over his optics as he responded. "There's been an attack by some Decepticon ships, I think. I'm not too clear on the details, we don't get much news down here in this pit. Shift it a little to the left."

Breakaway obliged and the mechanic leaned in and began to weld the cube, sparks flying and light reflecting off his visor in flashes. "Decepticons?" Breakaway repeated. That was something he recognized.

"A few of their ships have us cornered just off the surface of some planet," the mechanic mumbled. "The Technobots have been running all over trying to get the ship in order again so we can fight back, or get out of here, or something." He leaned back as he retracted the torch and visor. "Scattorshot's right over there, as a matter of fact," he grunted and pointed to a corner of the huge room where the Technobot leader was indeed attempting to aid a few younger-looking engineers.

"Alright, I think that's all the help I'll need from you, kid, thanks fer your help," the bot wiped his servos off on his thighs and looked up, but Breakaway was already gone.

Pressing an intercom box toggle, Scattershot opened a shipwide channel. "Strafe, Afterburner, Nosecone, report to the bridge. Times up." The Technobot looked down and was immediately greeted by the sight of a young brown-colored jet with his hand up in a salute.

"Autobot warrior Breakaway reporting for duty, Commander Scattorshot, sir! Ready and willing to help kick some Decepticon skidplates!"

Ohhh, he seems fun! If he ever comes across Blackwind he'll notice she has the same alt mode. Anyhow, he's approved. Enjoy!
