Profile: Hot Rod has always been a radical, of sorts; he is considered hot-headed, can be a little impulsive, and tends to act before he thinks, yet his heart seems to be in the right place. As a relatively young Autobot, in the sense of his more recent construction and newer version of emote-programming, he has always felt second-rate around his peers. Yet, instead of succumbing to the depression of his feelings, Hot Rod has vowed to rise to the occasion, to prove that he can do great things that others can respect; it is even his hope that, in many years to come, he will have the same renown associated to his name as Optimus Prime.

Very much the rebel, Hot Rod has the tendency to be a rule-bender; and while he does break rules, and often takes actions of his own ingenuity (often to painful result), Hot Rod has slowly started learning that sometimes the best way is the commanded way… however, despite his rational datapulses, he still tries to prove his own worth by taking the initiative. This often leads to Hot Rod taking action, without prior thought or planning, and can tend toward getting both him, and his friends, in trouble…

Yet, when danger presents itself, Hot Rod has no partiality of fear or retreat, proving that, despite his age, he is one of the bravest and most honorable among the Autobots.

In a short amount of time, Hot Rod has become close with a portion of Autobots; especially the old, mentor-like bot, Kup. While Hot Rod respects the bot with all the admiration of an eager aficionado, much like he does with Optimus Prime, the speedster cannot help but find himself annoyed at the constant Kup lectures and passages of wisdom. None-the-less, Hot Rod tends to humor the old bot, knowing that sometimes when he speaks, and when the speedster pays attention, there is some important information to be heard.

So, whether it is in robot, or automotive mode, Hot Rod is sometimes hotheaded, but is always a well-meaning, admirable lad, who is popular with those that know him.

Abilities: Hot Rod is an efficient marksman, with a preference toward the use of firearms. He has primarily focused his offensive capabilities toward utilizing his Electrostatic Discharger Rifle; and while Hot Rod is quite able in its use, he understands that constant practice will only increase his aptitude for his weapon of choice, and in time he hopes to become as accomplished a marksman as Optimus Prime.

Consequently Hot Rod’s hand-to-hand skill has suffered, and while he can defend himself suitably against a single opponent of slightly increased skill, he has a severely limited understanding of the more physical aspects of combat.

Despite his adolescent status within the Autobots, Hot Rod has shown a seemingly natural, well placed leadership quality about him, despite his impulsive actions that most others put down to both inexperience and excitable courage. At the same time, Hot Rod has a very high sense of honor, and tends to take the moral high ground on mostly any situation, despite the circumstances that surround it.

Due to his primary transformation mode, that of a Race Car, Hot Rod is quite often chosen to serve as an Autobot scout. With the mixture of both his speed, and ability to rapidly navigate at increased ground-based velocities, he is a natural choice for the role. He has been programmed with high-sensory impulse datastreams, which effectively allows him to perceive his surroundings at any speed, whether it be fast or slow.

Weaknesses: Being a racing vehicle by nature means that Hot Rod has a expected proclivity toward acting hastily, without much forethought. He is very impulsive, as well as stubbornly head-strong, which means Hot Rod quite often finds himself in all manner of circumstances, all with varying degrees of risk. It seems to be purely luck, or perhaps his allies’ skills in rescuing him that he manages to survive the situations he does.

Profile: Alpha is only kind to his fellow Autobots and he hates traitors, spies and most of all Decepticons, he will destroy any Decepticon without hesitation, and he often rushes into battle before thinking of a strategy.His comrades think Alpha is hot headed and stupid, even though he is smarter than some of them.He has respect for all his fellow Autobots even if sometimes the are mean to him. Alpha is very glad to be an autobot under the command of Optimus even though he can get on Alpha's nerves sometimes.

Abilities: His top speed in vehicle mode is 260 but in robot mode it is 35, he can charge his ion cannons longer for higher power, his shield is coated with anti-laser technology from Cybertron.

Weaknesses: Alpha's weapons can't reach long range enemies, because his shot gun is short range, and the farther the ion cannons go the weaker they get, so he is an easier target from long range.

Sample Post: Alpha was taking a drive, that always calms him down, he just got yelled at by Optimus Prime for being stupid and running into battles. He drove past a Decepticon named Stealth, whose alt. mode was a red and black Kawasaki Ninja,
with out even noticing him. Stealth started following him.
Alpha got on the highway than Stealth came up beside him and tried to ram him off. He was trying to fight back but Stealth had way more horsepower than him. But Alpha had a good idea (for once) , right when Stealth was about to ram him he completely stopped and Stealth flew right off the highway.
"Optimus is gonna hate me for this" he said transforming in the middle of the highway. People stared in amazement and fear, they never saw anything like it before. Than Alpha jumped off the highway on to stealth's body hoping to finish him once and for all. But stealth got back up when alpha got off his body. You are really getting on my nerves" Alpha said as he was charging his right arms ion cannon.
Stealth started rushing at him at full speed. Right before Stealth could hit him Alpha blew a hole through Stealth with his ion cannon. "At least hes finished, but i don't know how pissed Optimus is gonna be."

Very few Autobots have been to Earth, so you will need to edit those bits of your profile. Some more details in the ability section would be good too.

Profile: Ironhide’s been there and back more times than he can remember or cares to admit. He’s one of the oldest of the Autobots, getting old even as the war began, but he’s still pretty feisty. Ironhide prefers to communicate his intentions through actions rather than words and he can’t abide those “young punks” who talk a good game, but never follow through. Time, and conflict has taken its toll, and he’s seen better days physically, but Ironhide is still renowned for his toughness and determination. Never one to back down from a challenge or exhibit fear, he’s still capable of showing up any Autobot or Decepticon upstarts who dismiss him as an old relic, in addition to overall security, Ironhide acts as a personal bodyguard to Optimus Prime and anyone who’s threatened by Decepticon violence. He does so not just because of his formidable defencive skills but also of a deeply held desire to safeguard all life—Transformer or otherwise. Ironhide attempts to hide his softer side by his crotchety demeanour, but Optimus Prime isn’t fooled.

Abilities: Ironhide possesses great physical strength and an above average intelligence. His super-dense trithyllium is lined with radiation dampeners making him nearly invulnerable to physical and radiation attacks. Although his whole body is armoured, the armour is densest in his front section, and a large face shield protects him and whoever he maybe guarding. He carries a rifle that can shoot his choice of liquid chemicals up to 1,000 feet, this rifle becomes a turret in his vehicle mode. He carries a variety of cartridges including super-heated metal, a self-igniting petrochemical spray, and liquid nitrogen among others. Ironhide is a skilled warrior and security specialist. His armoured assault vehicle mode can travel over difficult terrain and can reach speeds of 60 mph.

Weaknesses: Ironhide isn’t getting younger, Ratchet is spending more and more time replacing worn parts. He is also one of the slowest Autobots, and his attitude towards the “young upstarts” sometimes creates unneeded tension in the ranks.

I want to see you play more of the characters you have now before giving you someone higher ranking. Jetfire and the Dinobots will be back in the game very soon so you will have your chance.

Appearance:
Her body is completely silver. She shines like polished chrome, except for her face; which has a matte finish. All in all, she is a most beautiful design. Her optics are an Ice blue, instead of the usual Decepticon red. Her frame is lithe and light. Her weapons are a metallic Blue.

Profile:
Speed is her religion. The faster she goes the more enlightened she feels. Clocks as much solo flight time as she can get. Her deep-seated love of exploration and adventure still leaves a residue upon her desires. It led her to volunteer for more dangerous and unusual missions, that most cons would shun.

The way she handles herself, sometimes putting her own life in danger to protect others, worries some Decepticons. They wonder why she isn’t an Autobot. She believes there is no such thing as peace, but only a lengthened lull in war. She strives for balance and inner peace. Although these philosophies may seem unsusual among the normally secular Decepticons, they stem from from a tormented spark. One that was forced against her will to undertake nightmarish physical changes, all to protect the life of a friend. Yet in the end, it proved futile. He was also used and destroyed before her very optics, giving her a first hand view of the fate she was to endure for the rest of her life.

She always uses sound judgement and a level head. She has the makings of a good leader, but she fears such a position would force her to send other friends to their death. Though critical of the ways of many Decepticons, there are a few she deeply admires. At times, she is equally impressed with Prime’s motives and tactics. However, she would never admit to either.

She is profoundly loyal to her fellow seekers and would never betray them. Nevertheless, there remains an underlying hatred for the all-consuming quest for glory that drove her captors to make her what she is now. She did not appreciate being used as a commodity.. The experiment conducted upon her body was comparable to rape. Where most Transformers join the Decepticons for power, and gladly submit, she was forced. She was restrained and still online when she was “upgraded.” Then, to add insult to injury, she was presented as a gift to Megatron.

This led her to a strained allegiance. She could not join the Autobots, nor could she live freely as a neutral because of the Military value of her body, and so she remains a Decepticon. But unlike Thundercracker, who hides his feelings of unease, it was well known from the start that Silverstrike had no desire to partake in the war. It is also known that she is bound by an unspoken contract to remain loyal, and function at full capacity under the orders of Megatron. Though no one is sure of what price she would pay if she did betray him, she alone knows that answer.


History:
A strange and rare unstable metal was discovered in a meteor from a distant planet. When it was tested, it was found that the metal's properties were deadly. The element was banned from use. A rouge scientist (Name here) concentrated the element, and developed a liquid armor from it. Needing test subjects, he captured Silverstrike and Starburst.

The two friends had been secretly exploring meteoric craters. They did so without permission from their superiors. (Name Here) trapped and disabled them, holding them as prisoners. Starburst happened to be a valuable guardian of forgotten Mystic information stored and locked within his cortex. Knowing the metal liquid was deadly, Silverstrike bargained to be used with out struggle for testing in exchange for letting Starburst go free. However, to her dismay, she was kept online while he preformed his experiments upon her. All while letting her witness the slow and tortured death of Starburst. What was done to her was unspeakable, comparable to what humans would call rape. Her screams reverberated throughout the corridors as her circuits burned like living fire. Her mind twisted and writhed beneath the pain and terror.

Silverstrike only survived because she had been the first subject to be on-line, and to resist during the process. The goal of the experiment was to make a Decepticon capable of sustaining superluminal speeds longer, vastly increasing the possibilities for interplanetary travel. She was fitted with untested prototype enhansed thrusters. Their energy cells had to be kept separate from the rest of her body functions, to prevent the leeching of energon from her body. After the process was complete, the silvery substance was bonded to her every molecule. The substance allowed for her to move with surprising grace and fluidity. With amazing speed in robot form. It also protected the Transformer against the heat of reentry as well as the best shielding available at the time.

Although all this impressive technology was bestowed upon her she resisted at every turn and was one day short of receiving an advanced weapons system and long range gear, when it was decided she had been toyed with enough. It was time to present her to Megatron.

She was presented like some caged animal, held in restraints. (Name Here) offered her to Megatron as a gift, a means of expanding his empire. A way to conquer the far reaches of space. All in hopes that he would be rewarded for his gift.

Megatron waved his hand commanding her release before him. She was a mere toy compared to his power. She contemplated for a moment, and then charged him. She was halted by a single shot from his cannon. As she attempted to pull herself up from the floor, the Decepticon leader knelt beside her and whispered only for her to hear. “You will serve me.” He thought of her as no more than a tool, another weapon to be replicated at a later date. However, Megatron’s interests turned elsewhere. She was forgotten. Left to her own devices under the leadership of the seekers.

During Silverstrike’s recuperation from her horrible experience, Mindwipe saw her one morning working with an energy sword. He took her on as a pupil and taught her his ways of fighting and more importantly gave her access to the ways of Metallikato Through the Ancient Text and his own verbal cues. At times, the nightmares would consume her every thought and action. When these episodes occurred, Mindwipe used his abilities to clear her tormented mind, telling her to "Rest, and forget for a while." With her enhanced agility and speed, she quickly became an Adept, just short of mastery. For her fear of leadership held her from the Master’s ceremony. But clearly her skills were well advanced. During this time she came to respect and revere Mindwipe. Trust had become a rare thing for her injured heart. Her bond created a strong loyalty he had not seen in some time and a rare sense of fondness towards her. What else transpired is only known between them. But it was powerful enough to change her destiny. It caused her to pledge allegiance to the Decepticons and to hone her sword skills to serve them.

In time, she became one of the forerunners of the few Decepticons capable of superluminal travel, such as Cyclonus and the Sweeps. All current models of FTL capable engines derive at least in part from the technology of the tests that she endured.

I already wanted to talk to you about this character. Catch me on AIM tonight so we can chat, and polish her a little.

Ok, I also recieved permission from Devastron for the Megatron involved bkg and the level 10 speed.

Starburst happened to be a valuable guardian of forgotten Mystic information stored and locked within his cortex. Knowing the metal liquid was deadly, Silverstrike bargained to be used with out struggle for testing in exchange for letting Starburst go free. However, to her dismay, she was kept online while he preformed his experiments upon her. All while letting her witness the slow and tortured death of Starburst. What was done to her was unspeakable, comparable to what humans would call rape. Her screams reverberated throughout the corridors as her circuits burned like living fire. Her mind twisted and writhed beneath the pain and terror.

Silverstrike only survived because she had been the first subject to be on-line, and to resist during the process. The goal of the experiment was to make a Decepticon capable of sustaining superluminal speeds longer, vastly increasing the possibilities for interplanetary travel. She was fitted with untested prototype enhansed thrusters. Their energy cells had to be kept separate from the rest of her body functions, to prevent the leeching of energon from her body. After the process was complete, the silvery substance was bonded to her every molecule. The substance allowed for her to move with surprising grace and fluidity. With amazing speed in robot form. It also protected the Transformer against the heat of reentry as well as the best shielding available at the time.

Although all this impressive technology was bestowed upon her she resisted at every turn and was one day short of receiving an advanced weapons system and long range gear, when it was decided she had been toyed with enough. It was time to present her to Megatron.

She was presented like some caged animal, held in restraints. Thunderwing offered her to Megatron as a gift, a means of expanding his empire. A way to conquer the far reaches of space. All in hopes that he would be rewarded for his gift.

Megatron waved his hand commanding her release before him. She was a mere toy compared to his power. She contemplated for a moment, and then charged him. She was halted by a single shot from his cannon. As she attempted to pull herself up from the floor, the Decepticon leader knelt beside her and whispered only for her to hear. “You will serve me.” He thought of her as no more than a tool, another weapon to be replicated at a later date. However, Megatron’s interests turned elsewhere. She was forgotten. Left to her own devices under the leadership of the seekers.

During her recuperation from her horrible experience MindWipe saw her one morning working with her energy sword. As she secretly honed her Metallikato skills without her master, unable to go any further with her teachings. He took her on as a pupil and taught her the ways of feral combat because it was obvious she was holding back and needed a release. But Nightmares repeatedly consumed her every thought and action and her mind twisted like that of a war victim, Mind Wipe used his abilities to clear her tormented mind telling her to "Rest. And forget for a while." With her enhanced agility and speed she quickly became an Adept, just short of mastery. For her fear of leadership held her from the Master’s ceremony. During this time she came to respect and revere Mind Wipe. A rare thing with her injured heart. Her bond created a strong loyalty he had not seen in some time and a rare sense of fondness towards her.

**Later it is found out that Thunderwing had also begun training her he found out about her Metallikato background and furthered her abilities with his schooling of Valckastan martial arts, a mostly bare handed form of fighting, and a touch of his proficient sword skills and Weapons knowledge. Because at one point there was a possibility of his turning her into a more elite weapon if not for her attitude. A challenge for his already, unmatched and powerful skills. She would be a creation to be proud of….

She became the forerunner of the few Cons that can travel faster than light, Astrotrain, Cyclonus and the Sweeps. Some of the technology used on them came from the tests that she endured.



Abilities:
She is coated with a liquid silver element that repels friction in flight and enables quick flawless movement making her incredibly fast. Indeed one of if not the fastest Transformer. This substance also causes her movement in robot form to be fluid and agile almost organic in function and swiftness. Her reaction time is far above average and she has been able to dodge or deflect shots fired at her. Her signature weapon is a Blue energon sword, as it fit perfectly with her Agility, Speed and Metallikato Training. Like a falcon she strikes hard knocking her foes down before they know what hit them. She is able to break the gravitational pull of a planet’s gravity, and her coating protects her from re-entry with out the use of energy shields. Her engines are a Thermodynamic wonder .. a Prototype coldfusion system to give her the speed she is known for. Sadly at the end of the experiments preformed on her it was decided not to give her the elite weapons system designed to be installed specifically for the experiment. Leaving her long range weapons severely lacking, leaving only a very basic form of seeker gun power attached to her alt mode.


Weaknesses:
She does have a severe weakness, due to her attitude towards Thunderwing she is lacking capable long range weapons, leaving her at a great disadvantage among the seekers. Having only the most basic of seeker weapons in her alt mode. During Missions she is usually sent ahead as Reconnaissance In Force depending on her speed and element of surprise to make it through.

Her low strength and endurance for such a high melee causes her to fall to injury easily especially from high powered weapons since **TW denied her the remaining Shielding and Weapons because of her attitude her tendency to protect others causes her to be the first one down. Her only protection is her swordplay and skill to block assaults against her.

Another flaw is she feels differently from other cons during battle and it affects her judgement. She refuses to kill unless backed with no way out. When watching her swordplay one can see she obviously is holding back. A major flaw for a con. Her comrades often tease and accuse her of being an Autobot lover since she acts like one at times and this also causes some cons to dislike her strongly.

Her fear of leadership holds her from becoming a Metallikato master, though she knows all the moves and has all the training she refuses to go further. This is complicated by her mental trauma and all consuming nightmares which she needs controlled by Mind Wipes’s Hypnotic powers when they become too strong for her to control on her own.

RANK: Ask from the leader of the faction you belong.


Appearance:
Her body is completely silver. She shines like polished chrome, except for her face; which has a matte finish. All in all, she is a most beautiful design. Her optics are an Ice blue, instead of the usual Decepticon red. Her frame is lithe and light. Her weapons are a metallic Blue.

Profile:
Speed is her religion. The faster she goes the more enlightened she feels. Clocks as much solo flight time as she can get. Her deep-seated love of exploration and adventure still leaves a residue upon her desires. It led her to volunteer for more dangerous and unusual missions, that most cons would shun.

The way she handles herself, sometimes putting her own life in danger to protect others, worries some Decepticons. They wonder why she isn’t an Autobot. She believes there is no such thing as peace, but only a lengthened lull in war. She strives for balance and inner peace. Although these philosophies may seem unsusual among the normally secular Decepticons, they stem from from a tormented spark. One that was forced against her will to undertake nightmarish physical changes, all to protect the life of a friend. Yet in the end, it proved futile. He was also used and destroyed before her very optics, giving her a first hand view of the fate she was to endure for the rest of her life.

She always uses sound judgement and a level head. She has the makings of a good leader, but she fears such a position would force her to send other friends to their death. Though critical of the ways of many Decepticons, there are a few she deeply admires. At times, she is equally impressed with Prime’s motives and tactics. However, she would never admit to either.

She is profoundly loyal to her fellow seekers and would never betray them. Nevertheless, there remains an underlying hatred for the all-consuming quest for glory that drove her captors to make her what she is now. She did not appreciate being used as a commodity.. The experiment conducted upon her body was comparable to rape. Where most Transformers join the Decepticons for power, and gladly submit, she was forced. She was restrained and still online when she was “upgraded.” Then, to add insult to injury, she was presented as a gift to Megatron.

This led her to a strained allegiance. She could not join the Autobots, nor could she live freely as a neutral because of the Military value of her body, and so she remains a Decepticon. But unlike Thundercracker, who hides his feelings of unease, it was well known from the start that Silverstrike had no desire to partake in the war. It is also known that she is bound by an unspoken contract to remain loyal, and function at full capacity under the orders of Megatron. Though no one is sure of what price she would pay if she did betray him, she alone knows that answer.


History:
A strange and rare unstable metal was discovered in a meteor from a distant planet. When it was tested, it was found that the metal's properties were deadly. The element was banned from use. A rouge scientist Thunderwing concentrated the element, and developed a liquid armor from it. Needing test subjects, he captured the neutrals Silverstrike and Starburst.

The two friends had been secretly exploring meteoric craters. They did so without permission from their superiors. Thunderwing trapped and disabled them, holding them as prisoners.

Profile: [From the Datatracks of Optimus Prime, Autobot 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, it's Magnus himself who 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, hand-to-hand combatant, and tactician, not to mention a field commander without equal. His outer armor is equipped with two missile launchers, each capable of hitting a target at a distance of 10 miles; they are usable in both modes. In robot mode, he wields a powerful laser rifle. In vehicular mode, Magnus' trailer is 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.

Sample Post:

Finally, on the battlefield again.

Ultra Magnus crouched behind pieces of a toppled building, which he used for cover. A few towers surrounded him. Shots came and blasted shrapnel at his feet.

Exactly where I want to be.

Finally. Exactly. Magnus hadn't used those words for a long time. Prime had finally let him back out on to the battlefield with a strike force. And though it was war, a war with fighting and death, the commander still relished in the fact that he was in his comfort zone again.

But he couldn't stay comfortable. There wasn't time for that. He was a leader. Com-links barraged him. Questions. Pleas. Cries and shouts from the wounded. Blasts and shots. All the noise, all the confusion, echoed the chaos in his head. The gun in his arm began to shake.

We could do... or we could try...

>>Magnus, we need an answer. What do we do? >>

For a moment, everything stopped. The silence on the battlefield ringed in his audio sensors. His mind cleared up. He wouldn't let himself down. He wouldn't let his troops down. And most importantly, he wouldn't let Prime down. His grip firmed up. He got up.

>>Alright, they're not moving from their position. Big mistake there. And we'll make them pay for that one. I'll get this tower in front of me down to distract them for a few astroseconds. Get as many wounded to behind cover. These 'cons will think we're retreating. Hit 'em from behind the cover. Simply pulling in with bait. We've got the advantage. When they're pinned, the Autobots down here with me will attack head on. The Decepticons won't even know what hit them. Autubots, let's do this. >>

Magnus' voiced charged on over the com-link. Confidence returned, he reloaded his rifle. Stepping up to aim a missile at the crumbling base of the tower before him, he took a few shots. No matter. He let himself crack a slight smile. Adrenagon pumping, he shot the rocket from the side of his shoulder.

TECH SPEC BIO
His confidence borders on arrogance--can hit targets blindfolded, from memory. He needs no help to shoot, and never asks for any. In vehicle mode, Sureshot's maximum speed: 290 mph, range: 1200 miles.
PROFILE
Sureshot established his gunslinging reputation on his home planet of Cybertron millions of years ago, before the Autobot-Decepticon War began. While still only a young prototype, he won the annual lntraFormers Sharpshooting Competition against a veteran field that included Optimus Prime, Megatron and many other renowned marksmechs. Soon after, the war began and both sides eagerly sought Sureshot for his superior shooting skills. Optimus Prime convinced him to join the Autobots by granting him a degree of autonomy from the usual chain of command. Nowadays, Sureshot has a confidence in his abilities that borders on arrogance. He is quick to show off some of his more sensational talents, such as hitting targets blindfolded from memory. He is a regular Gunslinger and keeps his impressive weaponry with him at all times. His guns are his allies.
ABILITIES
Sureshot is an extremely skilled marksmechs. He can bullseye the head of a screw from up to six miles away. He can draw his weapon in .2 seconds. His preferred laser gun shoots twin beams of high-energy laser light. Either beam can cause considerable damage. Sureshot transforms to a ground vehicle with a maximum speed of 290 mph and range of 1,200 miles. In either mode, Sureshot can wield his laser gun weapon.
WEAKNESSES
Sureshot personality and blown up ego can be his greatest weakness. He enjoys the special privilege gained from prime which was a degree of autonomy from the usual chain of command, but it also causes him to feel above some orders and other mechs.

Sample post:
“Awwww, come on Prowl. I can hit it from here. We don’t even need to get close.”

Sureshot raised his pistol even though his superior had explicitly told him not to. His arm already locked onto the target he turned his head to glare at the other bot.

“Come on I, have it in my sights now, look I don’t even need to put my optics on it.”

Well, the profile needs to be put into the RPG format (alt mode, quote, height, etc.). The sample RP could use a bit more, honestly, too. Basically it's a lot of clean-up.

Prowl held his hand out in a signal for a hold. But Sureshot wasn’t waiting any longer. With a mischevious grin and his optics still locked on Prowl. Sureshot fired a single blast hitting Starscream square in the rear, as he bent over to retrieve the super powered weapon. The seeker went down with a clang, the weapon sliding across the smooth Decepticon polished floor coming to stop at Bumblebee’s feet. Screamer did not have the chance to regain his composure as Sureshot rounded off three more blasts hitting Skywap, Thundercracker and Screamer once again.

“Ok Prowl I’ll cover your aft, you go get Bumblebee outa there.”

He grinned, he knew he was pushing hie commander’s buttons but it was all fun. What was the point of being the best if he couldn’t show off once in a while.

“Ok you three,…”

He spoke as he walked closer to the seekers.

“One move and it won’t be your afts I shoot this time, if you know what I mean.”

He stood over the three with both guns drawn on them. He knew his team had it all wrapped up, and when they got back it would be fun to see how mad Prowl really was

Approved. Nicely done, mate. Start him wherever you think is appropriate.

Profile: [From the Datatracks of Optimus Prime, Autobot 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, it's Magnus himself who 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, hand-to-hand combatant, and tactician, not to mention a field commander without equal. His outer armor is equipped with two missile launchers, each capable of hitting a target at a distance of 10 miles; they are usable in both modes. In robot mode, he wields a powerful laser rifle. In vehicular mode, Magnus' trailer is 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.

Sample Post:

Finally, on the battlefield again.

Ultra Magnus crouched behind pieces of a toppled building, which he used for cover. A few towers surrounded him. Shots came and blasted shrapnel at his feet.

Exactly where I want to be.

Finally. Exactly. Magnus hadn't used those words for a long time. Prime had finally let him back out on to the battlefield with a strike force. And though it was war, a war with fighting and death, the commander still relished in the fact that he was in his comfort zone again.

But he couldn't stay comfortable. There wasn't time for that. He was a leader. Com-links barraged him. Questions. Pleas. Cries and shouts from the wounded. Blasts and shots. All the noise, all the confusion, echoed the chaos in his head. The gun in his arm began to shake.

We could do... or we could try...

>>Magnus, we need an answer. What do we do? >>

For a moment, everything stopped. The silence on the battlefield ringed in his audio sensors. His mind cleared up. He wouldn't let himself down. He wouldn't let his troops down. And most importantly, he wouldn't let Prime down. His grip firmed up. He got up.

>>Alright, they're not moving from their position. Big mistake there. And we'll make them pay for that one. I'll get this tower in front of me down to distract them for a few astroseconds. Get as many wounded to behind cover. These 'cons will think we're retreating. Hit 'em from behind the cover. Simply pulling in with bait. We've got the advantage. When they're pinned, the Autobots down here with me will attack head on. The Decepticons won't even know what hit them. Autubots, let's do this. >>

Magnus' voiced charged on over the com-link. Confidence returned, he reloaded his rifle. Stepping up to aim a missile at the crumbling base of the tower before him, he took a few shots. No matter. He let himself crack a slight smile. Adrenagon pumping, he shot the rocket from the side of his shoulder.

Looks very good. Pick him up in the Tagan Heights.

On a related note, I'm picking up the stasis-locked Fortress Maximus.

Rumble

Allegiance: Decepticon
Sub-Group: Cassetticon
Function: Demolitions
Alt. mode: Data-disk
Weapons: Laser Rifles
Special Abilities: Robot mode flight, pile-driver/earthquake generation

Profile: If someone looks at Rumble the wrong way, they’ll catch a punch to the optic sensor - if they’re that lucky. Rumble acts without hesitation, and it doesn’t matter to him that he’s much smaller than many of his foes. Because of his size, most aren’t prepared for the ferocity of the mean-spirited Decepticon’s attack, let alone his ground-shattering powers. He’s a tough and foul-mouthed street punk whose violent nature has blossomed to its true calling within the ranks of the Decepticon army. Rumble loves being in the toughest ‘gang’ in the galaxy, and he’s eager to follow the battlefield orders of proven warriors whom he admires, like Soundwave and Megatron. His rebellious attitude occasionally manifests itself when faced with a task he finds boring or wasteful of his time, but fear of retribution quickly puts it in check.

Abilities: Rumble can internally generate intense vibrations that can tear the ground apart, destroy equipment, or even shatter his foes. He can end these waves into the ground through his feet, or he can transform his arms into drum-like appendages (aka pile-drivers) to physically direct their power. The quakes caused by him have measured as high as 5.4 on the Richter scale. He is also armed with two laser-rifles.

Weaknesses: Rumble is extremely weak physically. Despite his impressive powers and fierce attitude, most Autobots can best him easily in a physical contest - if they can make it far enough to reach him.

Roleplay Example

Rumble remained stored in Soundwaves chest, taking the form of a square purple data-disc. “Rumble, eject, operation demolition.” Soundwave exclaimed while the center of his chest opened, shooting the data-disc, quickly into mid-air. The purple data-disc flew into the air at a rapid speed, transforming in mid air into the robot form of Rumble. “You got it Soundwave! I’ll turn this place into a parking lot in no time at all!” Rumble exclaimed landing on end of the bridge. “Alright lets make some noise!” Rumble yelled out while his two arms transformed into pile drivers, the drum like appendages contained enough force to cause a massive earthquake. “Hold onto your tailpipe Soundwave!” Rumble exclaimed as he bent his robotic legs towards the ground. Rumble’s appendages started hammering into the ground, causing massive a 5.0 earthquake on the Richter scale. Vibrations struck the ground and soon pieces of the bridge started to collapse. The steel beams cracked under the massive vibration and the bridge literally cracked in half, falling to pieces while Soundwave watched in the distance. After completely destroying the bridge, Rumble took off up into the air, flying to land in front of Soundwave. “What do you think Soundwave? I knocked it down and out in no time.” Rumble said. “Operation, successful.” Soundwave exclaimed. Soundwaves chest opened and Rumble transformed back into a purple data-disc, launching himself in the air to slide into Soundwaves chest.

He isn't a big fan of fighting, but he loves the look on transformer's faces when they're blasted in the back by a high-powered missile, so he does it anyway.

Abilities: His concussion blasters can paralyze others momentarily, and his missiles are easily blocked, but when they hit their target, they hurt. He has a super-powered nitro tank attatched to his lower part which can power him forward, and powerful brakes attatched to his feet (Which gives him Flash zip).

Weaknesses: Being smashed in the chest by a high-powered punch from a bulky transformer, As he is easily sent flying due to his unnatural light weight. He's also weak to rapid firing machine guns.

Sample Post: -Inside a volcano-

Irritation stared at the giant pool of lava beneath the platform he was standing on, then looked at the autobot who was hanging onto the edge of the platform. He smiled and put his hand down to help him up, and as he did so, he dropped him. "Oops," He said, and smirked as he watched the autobot BURN.

Hmmm. I think I need to discuss the status of Soundwave's minions with the other staff.

The sample roleplay definitely needs something more. The Weaknesses section needs some more thought, too; being hurt by punches and machines guns is pretty much a weakness of everyone and everything. Honestly, I'd eliminate the "flash zip" and focus on his personality, etc.

Profile: Panzer loves to battle, a little bit too much. This makes his comrades question his sanity, or his allegiance. But he is a strong supporter of the Autobot cause, to a certain degree. Where most Autobots would rather use diplomacy to solve problems, he would rather cleave them into a slagheap to solve a dispute. Some would call that method reckless, he would call it "DIY Diplomacy with a battle-axe". He puts the shoot-first asks questions later approach to spark as if it were programmed into his personality drive.

A new addition to the Autobot ranks, he is eager to serve and is glad to help other, less battle prepared Autobots. His loud disposition hides an creative and versatile individual. He makes it a habit to pair up with smaller Transformers (he believes it makes him look bigger in comparison). Never the kind to run away from a fight he serves as cannon fodder among his team. His origins are hazy at best, with many of his comrades questioning his loyalty to them. It was assumed by many that he was one of Cybertronian Gladiators that did not choose to become a Decepticon.

Abilities: Panzer is the perfect warrior,versatile, heavily armed and almost indestructible. He may be slow, but that's okay, he'd rather die fighting than run away like a coward!He has developed his own style of combat, using his large body and multiple weapon variations he can tackle any combat situation with ease and flare. One of his weapon variations is known as his "full-fire mode" in which he sacrifices his movement to be able to fire off all of his weapons at once.

Weaknesses: The problem with being as powerful and heavily armored as Panzer is, you'd guess he's pretty slow. Only able to reach high speeds of about 99 mph because of his massive weight. Subtlety is not his forte', he's loud and dispises stealth. He also has a strange allergic reaction when copper is inserted into his system.

Sample Post:

The Barren wasteland once known as Polyhex

Panzer sat in the middle of the battlefield that had once seemed like paradise to the warrior. But now the dust had settled and he was agan faced with the reprocussions of the battle. Surviving the battle was one thing, seeing those who didn't make it was another...

Alright tough guy, pick yourself up and get outta here, it won't be long before the Cons arrive for clean-up duty...

The large mech sighed as he walked away slowly in the direction of the Autobot base when suddenly something caught his attention. He slowly pulled out one of his pistols and surveyed his surroundings.

It's not moving fast, and it's definetly not friendly...

He was right, but he had wished he wasn't. He found an opponent, he'd just didn't want this kind of opponent. It was a Decepticon with his lower-half ripped off.

"H-help me..." wheezed out the injured mech. "P-please I beg of you..."

He said nothing, this wasn't his place. He wasn't the kind to make decisions like this. He had two choices and both of them would leave him buried in guilt. He looked at the pathetic creature before him and sighed.

"I know I'm gonna die here, and I'd probably wouldn't make it even if you took me with you... but please, just stay with me until I go, I'd rather die in the pressence of the enemy rather than alone.."

He kneeled down at looked down at the mech. Slowly he watched his enemy shut down completely.

You did the right thing...just keep telling yourself that...you did the right thing...

Profile: Hotspot likes to be where the action is. Whether he's trying to put out a fire or win a war, as long as he's surrounded by a swirl of movement he's happy. He fights with a fluid instinctiveness that seemingly overrides any carefully measured analysis within his logic circuitry. His leadership is charismatic and inspiring; the other Protectobots can't help but perform beyond their abilities when in his company. However sometimes they have difficulty keeping up with his non-stop pace. His philosophy is to be maximally operational every moment of his life. Or, as he likes to phrase it, "There are always junkyards for those who rust!"

Abilities: In his fire truck mode, Hotspot can travel at 90 mph and has a range of 600 miles. His hose line can shoot streams of high-pressure water (and other non-corrosive fluids, such as oil and alchohol) an effective distance of 1200 feet. In robot mode, he possesses incredible strength: he can press 60,000 pounds. He uses a fireball cannon, which can shoot bursts of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit blue flame a distance of 1.5 miles. A special vanadium-steel alloy shields him from temperatures of up to 5000 degrees Fahrenheit. He combines with his fellow Protectobots to form the giant robot known as Defensor.

Weaknesses: Hotspot's ladder sometimes jams, locking into position when extended. His fireball cannon often backfires, releasing large amounts of the flammable liquid that powers it. Hotspot himself is invulnerable to the liquid's effects, but the liquid can cause considerable fire-damage to anything around him.

Roleplay Example -

Decepitcon fighting had caused fires to spread through Nova Cronum, reaching the outer perimeter defenses. Wild fires recklessly spread through the outer perimeter, damaging well-fortified structures. Through the thickness of the fire emerged a blue fire truck with its lights flashing violently. “Alright Protectobots! Let’s get this fire put out.” Hot Spot exclaimed, unleashing his water cannon from his roof. Hot Spot fired high-pressure water into the thickness of the flames, splashing water that would soon cause the flames to lose potency. The outer perimeter structure had been heavily damaged, making a cave in, a very distinct possibility. Hot Spot continued driving through the flames having near immunity to the fire while firing water into the deadly flames when the ground started to shake violently. “First Aid! Look out!” Hot Spot exclaimed while part of the outer perimeter came down on First Aid. Hot Spot quickly transformed to his robot his vanadium-steel alloy shielding him from the threat of the dangerous heat levels. “Hang on First Aid!” Hot Spot exclaimed while he grabbed the wall on both sides, lifting the enormous wall straight up over his head almost effortlessly and tossing it to the ground with a violent slam. Hot Spot then picked the battered First Aid from the ground and put him over his shoulder. “Your alright First Aid, we’ll get you fixed up in no time.” Hot Spot exclaimed while he loaded First Aid into Blades.

Profile:

Joebot is.. nothing special really, he honestly doesn't even have any place in the battlefield or even being given the weapons he has. He's a fluke, a mistake, a mishap. A attempt to level the field against the Decepticons and their seekers as a easily produced field unit, Joebot wasn't even finished when he was activated, his designers were baffled but unable to take him off-line due to their own morals. Thus Joebot was thrust into service, traded off from section to section until finally one instructor figured he knew all that he was going to and placed him in active duty.

Abilities:

There is nothing much to say about Joebot's abilities, he just scraped by in all his basic training events, even the most inspirational of instructors were unable to propel him in any one direction. There is one area where this is not true however, Joebot's technical ability. Thanks to his general training, Joebot in actuality is a technical wiz! This is easily missed due to his unimaginative nature but many has been the time when a skilled technician has wandered away from a project or repair job in frustration only to return and find their task done by a mysterious benefactor, these are the deeds of the ever wandering Joebot.

Weaknesses:

Joebot shares his design with Red Alert, Sideswipe, and any other number of Autobots. This can lead allies and enemies alike into thinking him to be someone more capable then he actually is! Often assigned duties more suited to those he resembles or considered a more serious threat by enemies.

Sample Post:

Late into the cycle's end two technician's worked away at the as of yet lifeless chasis of Joebot, the Olive Drab mech unknowing of the conflict as these two tiring units worked away at giving him life, one coming to a halt as a thought idly struck him.

"H'hey.. do you think we're doing the right thing?"

The other halted his work, turning his optics upwerds and eyeing his partner curiously,

"Whaddya mean by that, Sparkstart?" asked the second, the lights on his faceplate flashing as he spoke.

"This, I mean, should we really be doing this, making Cybertronians just for war, what are they going to do after it's all over. This would make us almost as bad as the Decepticons." claimed Sparkstart, a hand thumping down on Joebot's chest, unknowingly Fonzing a few systems to life.

The second stepped away from the table, giving this a moment's thought, a hand absent;y rubbing over the light bars that made up the lower portion of his features, "I guess you're right.. let's get this guy broken back down." he agreed, looking up only to find his partner gazing down at their creation, Sparkstart's expression one of dumbfounded surprise.

Following the other's gaze, the second found himself looking into a pair of gleaming optics, Joebot's.

Not knowing who he was or where he was.. or even why he was, Joebot looked up to his creators, seeking in their features the answers to the gaping void that was his very being only to find surprise and fear written on the faceplate's before him.

The silence between the three grew heavy, oppressive. Joebot felt the weight of it force from him his very first words, "Hello..."

"Oh slag." answered the creators in unison.
