Being a middle brother is hard enough, however being the middle brother between Thundercracker and Starscream is quite another story. Skywarp has resulted to playing mean and cruel jokes to be noticed. He leaves out no one and has a habit of bringing others in on it. His teleportation abilities aid him on his pranks; he's very resourceful, if only he put his processor into it.
*****DW Bio***** PROFILE: Skywarp is a classic Decepticon air warrior - swift and deadly, quick to follow orders, highly-trained and efficient in flight formation, and during off-duty moments having an element of the blustering bravado so common to those who consider themselves the elite air guard. His desires in life are for unlimited flight, the chance to revel in a battle victory, the camaraderie of his fellow flyers, in particular his best friend Thundercracker - though he is not much of a deep thinker, nor is he practiced in a great deal of empathy or consideration for those who cannot match his skills. He is one of the thousands upon thousands of flyers who make up the Decepticons' aerial superiority, without whose dedication and obedience the Decepticon cause would grind to a halt - someone who thoroughly enjoys his role in the world and has no real aspirations of moving beyond it.
ABILITIES: Like his follow Decepticon jet fighters, Skywarp can attain speeds of up to 2000 mph and more. But what makes him unique is his ability to instantly teleport himself a maximum distance of 2.5 miles. He also carries a heat seeking missile launcher and a variable-caliber machine gun. Skywarp can hold his own in ground-based combat better than the average flyer, and does not suffer the claustrophobia in close quarters that is common to many specialized air warriors.
WEAKNESSES: Skywarp's control of the accuracy of his teleportation power diminishes as the distance he teleports increases. As a result, if he's not too careful, he's likely to crash into things when he arrives at where he's teleporting. Not being too bright doesn't help him avoid these accidents either.
Devastron suggested I post these old pre-approved apps with stats as is, but not to complain if and when you say shave 5 points off each… :P
Though, like last time, Refit may end up more of an NPC type. Oh wait I put a new twist on Refit didn't I >.

(75pts used)APPEARANCE:
Reforge, at first glance, looks like an 'old Sweep' in plain grey (antiquedated by even seeker standards) and a thick, dull-polished marble white (with a few black marks) for his core frame. Upon closer inspection his joints, digits and other movable ligaments are visibly fine tuned for precision. A cleanly reflective black metal comprises these and his inner workings. His optics seem distant as if he is searching beyond what he sees.PROFILE: Reforge was once known as Refit, a smug flier who repaired other Decepticons, when he felt like it. Based on there position to him, many a seeker and other flying mech had enjoyed the repairs received under his care. He himself preferred working on his fellow seeker elites, but few ground dwellers have graced his operation table. Those who don't appear useful in his optics can wait for one of his cone headed repair drones as far as Refit is concerned.
Living vicariously through his air warrior brethren, he has attempted to improve on the seeker design. With each neo seeker squad he has designed, there has always been a single glaring failure on his part. Learning he can't improve on perfection, he has tried on several occasions to refit non seekers into the tetrajet form with varying degrees of success. Subject Turbulence seems to be his greatest achievement in this matter.
When word on commission of a neo seeker squad had got out, literally jumping at the chance to be apart of the assignment, he filed for an immediate transfer. To his dismay, he learned the neo seeker squad was actually a prototype squad of Sweeps, a new breed of interceptors designed to replace the soon to be obsolete seeker elite.
In an attempt to inform those that would soon be replaced, while they were at the frontlines, Refit was severely damaged and deactivated. Do to his prior enlistment to the Sweep prodject this was not his end. Refit was reforged into what he is today; A key physician for the next generation of Decepticons.
ABILITIES: Reforge can reach a top speed of 1200 mph. His variable precision laser scalpel is a tool of aid and destruction. He is well armed and armored. His fine skill in nano repair and circuit surgery crosses over seamlessly into targeting enemies on the field. Designed to cut through armor like a knife through butter, his laser scalpel can also be focus to a point 50 yards a way (150 feet) He also carries 4 heat seeking null missiles and twin D-Enegizer rifles, capable of temporarily cutting processor commands or rendering energon useless respectively (from 5-35 min.) ;great for sedating his patience and preventing the waste of excessive fuel consumption or losses. Already possessing most of the aerial fleets primary schematics, after his upgrade Reforge was uploaded with an emphasis on the newly designed sweeps. Subject does not suffer the claustrophobia in close quarters that is common to many specialized air warriors.
WEAKNESSES: Reforge lacks the strength and melee prowess of even the seekers he was refitted to replace, while his heavy armor limits his top speed. His reluctance to repair nonflyer types has made him less popular among non seekers and their superiors. His laser rifle takes time to do its job on stronger armor, be it on an operation table or the heat of battle. Reforge is also very possessive of his designs, even extending to the mechs formatted with them; this can place a strain on his new position as a sweep technician.

(75pts used) APPERANCE: Primary color is a translucent cobalt blue: Dense alloy. Its shimmer covers his circuits.
Secondary color is a brilliant bronze: including the face.
Follow up color is silver as reflective as chrome: any high lights on the toy model.
Optics and other lights glow blood red: this includes the vibro blades swords.
Sturdy build like Ramjet but with Thrust wings pointed upward and not a conehead. PROFILE: Turbulence thrives on combat, not destruction. Initially joining the Decepticon cause in order to be among the thugs with the better guns, it came to everyone’s surprise that this disruptive flying mech would take the structure and combat training to processor and spark. He also showed brutal efficiency with blades. So the street tuff with a savage gift with swords finds his purpose as a Decepticon, or so he thought.
Becoming serious-minded and determined, but with an ironic wit; He’s the kind of bot one can respect and expect to get the job done. Unfortunately, he's not all con. It seems he has taken a few questionable assignments, that only those committed to the cause should, bringing hesitation in his devotion to the Decepticon creed. As more troops were needed, fewer recruits retained the initial warrior’s mindset or worker regiment that was instilled with Turbulence. Perhaps the sterling banner the Cons waved at the once naive seeker had tarnished from the wars within.
Neither able to consolidate his warrior code with the ways of Primus nor the brutality of the Decepticons, Turbulence stays out of a sense of loyalty to what he believes the seekers should be. He’s changed now. He truly desires to be worthy of the title Decepticon Seeker; he only questions if the Decepticons are truly worthy of what he envisions the seekers to be.
ABILITIES: Turbulence has incredible dexterity and endurance, separating him from the average seeker, along with considerable speed and firepower. Subject carries a torque turret whose bolts 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.
In Jet mode, he has a top speed of mach 2.75 (average mach 1.5) with a range of 2000 miles. While airborne, subject’s cyclone missile launcher can propel a shell over 20 miles spiraling toward its target. The missiles, once launched, have a 2 mile range of auto targeting propulsion, a surprise for his more maneuverable adversary. Detonating with a sonic vibration, the explosion emulates the cyclonic strength of a F-5 class hurricane with in a localized ~325ft /100m radius, it is capable of sending nearly any opposition plummeting from the sky. Like fellow VTLO seeker Thrust, Turbulence has 4 sources of propulsion. The added mobility carries over seamlessly from tetra jet to warrior mech.
In robot form, he has an unusually high agility, which makes him an elusive target. Turbulence brutally wields twin vibro blades and is an exceptional swordsmech, even in areole swordplay, gaining the nickname "Samurai of the sky". He can obtain a land based speed of 75 mph on foot, but prefers flight and hovering.
Subject's firepower is strong while focusing on bringing his enemy out of the sky, were most seekers would find an advantage, and preventing possible escape. His foes are often surprised by the sight of his twin vibro blades; exceptional melee skills makes close quarters combat ideal. His endurance usually allows him to weather attacks in either mode to out last his foe or survive against superior opponents for reinforcements to arrive.
WEAKNESSES: Turbulence is still trying to consolidate his warrior mindset with the Decepticon machine. He blindly obeys those in his direct chain of command, even against his better judgment. Though skilled, there are occasions when his lackluster interest hinders his mission performance. Due to his thrust engines serving as secondary mobility in each form, his fuel consumption is higher than most other seekers.
SAMPLE POST:
Flying over the newly reclaimed skies of Polyhex, Turbulence could see empties scattering attempting to flee in vain. The Autobots seemingly gave up the fight rather than risk the spark of any civilians. "They really thought they could hold this city..." voiced the warrior as his fellow Decepticons perused the retreating Autobots as well as empties. While the Autobots have just gotten out o his weapons range, it wasn't his method to target non combatants; thankfully there wasn't any order to do so.
>
Reluctant but honor bound to follow his superiors, the seeker went down to track two empties running together. As he initiated target lock he got a better view of the duo. They seemed to share the same mold design; perhaps they were brothers.
Turbulence's solenoids went cold. Hesitating was not the way of a true warrior elite, but at the same time... he couldn't shake the memory.
Turbulence knew the day would come that the Decepticon forces would raze his one access port neutral city. He thought it be best to join with them as Megatron was arguably the strongest mech on seibertron after besting Grimlock in the arena, even taking down the previous champion Cryhavok without need of his fussion canon and later slagging that Autobot Sentinel Prime. If not for his older bother mech's devotion to Primus, the cobalt hovercraft would have already attempted to join there cause.
The Decepticon forces cover the skies with devastating air power making short work of the town and causing its citizens to flee. As the frightened neutrals scattered a lone pyramidal plane dived down, transforming before them. His optics were cold and his features resolute. Turbulence was about to beg to be a Decepticon. After witnessing the carnage already before him, there didn't seem any other way. Perhaps they would let his brother in as well.
The older bronze brother attempted to run, being shot in the leg for his efforts. Turbulence then stood defiantly in front of his fallen brother mech. His optics and visage mimicked that of the seeker before him. It was now or never. "W..we want to be D..Decepticons."
The gaze of the Seeker matched that of Turbulence as he raised one arm mounted laser. The elite warrior considered another option, surprised that the able framed Turbulence did not abandon the frightened doomed empty. "I could waste the energon to scrap both of you... Kill that empty and I'll 'Refit' you into something the Empire could use. Decepticons don't harbor the weak.">
Rebooting to his senses,
Turbulence finds himself eerily standing before the two neutral mechs with one having fell possibly through fear alone. The brother mech who's still standing turns to face Turbulence shaking in frame but not resolve. "hmph... You want to be a Decepticon?"
The standing nuetral yells while charging at the seasoned seeker; unexpected, though easily dealt with. Raising his torque turrent, Turbulence drilled a single bolt through the lower chest area of the charging mech, twisting him into the direction of his prone brother. The blolt went on to hit the fallen mech, warping the facial framing of his head in a spiral leaving a sinister smile on a face in fear and horror; all as the other brother watched before his own deactivation...
"What I lack in passion, you lack in talent." Without a visible shed of emotion he opened his com link.
