Jacknife's Bio
Long before the War, Jacknife was a competitor in sport wrestling. Tje rules were complex, and guarenteed no one died. One fighter was just as responmsible for stopping the match for his opponent's sake as the other was to bow out gracefully. The matches generally, were intended to support fair fun. No weaponry, just the limbs Primus blessed you with. When Megatron began his undergorund matches, these sport fights began to collect a bad rap, as either a "cover", a "training ground", or a "wannabe" They also proved to not be as fun, since weapons add new challenges, not to mention blood and gore. Following the rules of engagement, Jacknife bowed out gracefully. And when war was finally acknowleged, he signed up to train the new recruits in hand-to-hand. he quickly found himself, and his other teachers, becoming soldiers
Jacknife himself was a part of a strength group of bots. All transformers had Nanobots within them that made the neccesary changes for new alt modes, and many were on hand to adapt their bot modes to match physical needs. The former "sparkling" was the basis that served the canvas for these adaptations. Some bots, like Jacknife, used these nanobots to overbuild newer, faster, stronger servomotors. Making themseves generally stronger. As war dawned, bots began to be sparked "pre-built", to speed the process of making soldier, and this trait is slowly becoming a rare "ability" than a form of evolution.
As such, Jacknife is one of the strongest Cybertronians around. each exertation of work tells the nano-b0pts to begin working to improve systems again. It also makes him heal faster, and gets him around the "strong and slow" that those who consder him equal or inferior suffer from, because the nanobots are not blind to his occasional calls for more speed. It's all about the right self-improvements in the right places.
In battle, Jacknife is no fool. His prefernce is fighting his foes at the length of a gun, not at the range of it. But he knows that those fights are rare, and so carries himself a small artillery. Or, what Jacknife consders a small artillery. Becaus eof his increased strength, Jacknife is actuallky capable of wielding weapons normally reserved for bots the size of the gestalts due to recoil. He's also incredibly resistant against even most point-blank shots. Commonly, he'll let some con shoot him, locate the poor bot, crush the con's gun,. and go in fists swinging. All else fails, he has also learned to use a sniper rifle. He's no sureshot, but he can aim to shoot, and has learned to shoot guns. Fortunately for him, most Decepticons measure their egos by the size of their cannon, so as long as he can hit the broadside of a barn, he;s okay.
In vehicle mode, Jacknife's armored truck has one turret gun, two gatling guns, and several gun moints for minicons, -masters, and humanoids. He has several payload doors on the back, and can therefor move platoons and their equipment. All of those guns are available to him in robot mode, as well as a few shoulder cannon. His vehicle mode can hit a top speed of 65mph, and is equipped to handle almost any terrain.
Jacknife's major weakness is ihis own strength. As his nano's enlarge his own servos, he begins to lose alt mode options to disguise with. He's still very "respectful, sportmanship" oriented, which can get him stuck in some situations. Given the choice, he;d use his body over a gun, on the ground, which is not always the smartest move in the long run. He also comes across often as scary due to his size, even though the bot would give you the armor off his back if you needed it.
