Bug Bite
Allegiance Himself, but Gigatron's Decepticons will do for now
Body Design Japanese minibot; soon to be Classics Bug Bite
Motto "Your mind is mine for the taking."

Personality
Bug Bite is a mad scientist, almost to a stereotypical degree. Supremely arrogant, he overestimates his own intelligence and underestimates others', but he still has enough upstairs to be a force to be reckoned with in the science department. He believes he has few intellectual rivals, and as a result he's contemptuous of just about everyone else. He doesn't suffer fools gladly, and he tolerates interruptions even less. It's probably inevitable, then, that his ego is constantly taken down a peg or three. Maybe he might soon learn humility.

Character History
Bug Bite was actually a cybernetic being from another world, a world that was caught in the crossfire of the Autobot/Decepticon war. Seeking revenge on all Transformers, he reformatted himself with a Transformer-esque body in order to infiltrate them. This didn't quite work out as planned, and after being dismissed as a threat by most of his would-be adversaries, he perished in a confrontation with Bumblebee when a spaceship he was on crashed into a building.

Currently, Bug Bite remembers almost none of this. Prior to his 'demise', he had stored copies of his mental engrams in a central location away from his body, and he'd stashed backup bodies in different hiding places on Cybertron and beyond. Upon the destruction of his most recent body, the mental engrams were downloaded into a backup, but the damage done to his mind couple with a glitch in the download caused most of his memory to be wiped. His lab doesn't hold many clues, because it's been wrecked in his absence, but he does find some unfinished plans for a new upgraded body.

He remembers a burning need to destroy something and someone on Cybertron, and he seems to remember that Autobots and possibly some Decepticons are on that list. His current plan is to journey to the headquarters of Gigatron's Decepticons -- because they're the closest -- and to offers his services in exchange the means to create his new body.

Physical Abilities
Bug Bite doesn't have a lot going for him physically. His current body is from the same model line as Bumblebee, but as he hasn't a fraction of Bumblebee's courage, he's all but useless in a fight. He makes up the difference through the invention of advanced weaponry.

Weaknesses
As stated above, Bug Bite is physically meek, but his greatest weakness lies in his tendency to underestimate others' intelligence. He's not a very good battlefield tactician; while he can plan ahead well enough (as in the case of his backup bodies), he doesn't think on his feet very well. The only plans he's likely to implement in a fight are those he'd thought up before the battle took place.

Personal Relationships
Everyone Bug Bite actually cared about was lost in the destruction of his homeworld, though it's arguable whether or not he actually cared about anyone even before then. Presently, he only has allies of convenience, Gigatron included. That alliance might conceivably last until Bug Bite remembers that he's a non-Transformer who hates actual Transformers. Or until he overstays his welcome -- whichever comes first.

Name: Tinker
Alligeance: Decepticon
Function: Medic
Body Design: Coniferous green G1 Seeker

"Try and try again if you fail."

PROFILE

Tinker is a little bizarre scientist and technician. He's the 'little brother' and frequent partner of the Decepticon Seeker Starfall, resulting from a 'spark split' similar to Sideswipe and Sunstreaker. They have a sibling relationship, with Starfall acting as the fierce and responsible older sister while Tinker is the more withdrawn geeky little brother. Tinker is often assigned as medic duty, much to his chagrin, for he wants some peace to do his experiments. To be fair, he did come up with a sizable amount of experimental weaponry.

He is quite an elitist and hates those thugs that he's ordered to work with. Starfall tries to convince him that it's worth it, but the medic Seeker doesn't see how.

PHYSICAL ABILITIES

Tinker is not much of a warrior, but is able to fight, mainly with tranquilizer darts. His Seeker cannons can change to giant injector needles able to penetrate armour and inject tranquilizing fluid.

He also carries spare parts if needed in his cockpit. His arm can retract and change into a welding gun, which double as a flamethrower device. Tinker prefers shooting the enemy from afar, unlike the more physical Starfall. He also loves scavenging bodies for spare parts.

Personal relationships

Tinker is close to Starfall, his 'twin sister'. He is also close to other Seekers and the Constructicons. Currently he is working with Hightower in Polyhex, and avoids the mentally insane Heavy Load whenever possible.

My bad Warcry I will make another .

Name: Wreck Gar
Alligeance: Junkion sub group- Autobots
Function: Junkion Leader
Body Design: Junk Planet Motorcycle


ProfileJunkion Leader Wreck Gar is far from conventional but while zanny his actions may be . He has a good solid mind and has done many things in these trying times Saving many lives He can rebuild himself and others and while medic in the sense he can do more than just save lives if pressed he can take them too . He is generally suspicious of strangers, but once he considers you a friend, he's a steadfast and selfless individual

Physical Abilities
In battle, Its not knocking him down its keeping him down thats the trick . Axe and a Laser gun as primary weapons .
Also well apt to be a medic for many various reasons . And provides comedic relief even when its not needed.

Weakness
Prone to lose pieces in attacks and easy to knockdown but can repair them very fast even if a pile of parts .

Name: Glit
Alligeance: Decepticon
Function: Medic/Surgeon
Body Design: White and Blue Feline cassetron


"Either shut up and let me treat you, or stop getting injured! It's your choice!"

Profile:
"If he is seen in a battlefield, there will be no winner in the war. That is because no warriors will die that day."
These words were passed down from soldier to soldier on both the Autobot and Decepticon armies. Glit is the most skilled surgeon that the Decepticons have. His keen sense of smell and gently glowing optic sensors never miss a wounded soldier, even if he is of the enemy army. He appeared as an angel even to jaded enemy warriors who had fought through the millennia.

Although Glit is soft-mannered, he makes his own opinions clear and has an inner strength that will never give in to violence or threats. On the other hand, he has a childish, stubborn side that refuses to budge from a decision that he has already made. It is said that under his ministrations, even the most battle-hardened veteran or bloodthirsty criminal becomes as passive as a child with a skinned knee.

Once, Glit's commanding officer Megatron was displeased by the fact that Glit had given medical treatment to the Commander of the enemy army. He ordered his soldiers to cut off Glit's arms. However, many soldiers spoke up; citing Glit's vital importance and necessity, and Megatron was forced to reconsider.

Glit has been MIA for many years until recently, with a mysterious past that he likes to hide in the bottom of a glass of energon wine...

Physical abilities:
Glit possesses a high level of knowledge of all fields in medicine, including surgery, internal medicine, and cybernetic technology. His forelimbs contain laser scalpels capable of delicate electron sutures down to 1/10000th of a micron. The multifunctional medical tool boxes installed on his hips contain 15000 different kinds of medicine. These three factors allow him to give the appropriate treatment to his patients no matter what the circumstances.

Instead of a recording module, his cassette mode has a head-cleaner module with diagnostic and repair functions. He does periodic check-ups on the internal functions of his carrier, so that his fellow Cassette warriors will always be in top form, and live up to their full potential. Glit does not have any weapons, but he does not fear even when facing a heavily armoured giant warrior of destruction.

Personal relationships:
Glit has been MIA for many years and is very reluctant to speak about his past. He steers clear of making close friends with too many Decepticons as they often are at odds with his humanitarian ways. He remains loyal to Megatron, his original field commander, and as always to Soundwave. Glit has been known to have too many drinks of energon wine to hide from a past he is not reluctant to speak about....

Not me. Well, we could always photoshop a Ravage pic. :)

Oh, and by the way--not meaning to be a prick by this--the RPG site is a bit out of date in comparison to the Roll Call thread...

The characters that already have existing profiles have been updated. I'll get to creating the custom character profiles, Victory Saber et al, Wreck-Gar, and whoever else here soon (unless some gets to it before me). Glit just happened to be my first.

I might have some time tonight when I get home, if you haven't tended to things already. :)

That'd be much appreciated. I just entered the names for all the fan-mades and...uggh...what a bloody ****ing nightmare (no offence intended to anyone, just that there's a lot of them). I'll be adding the profiles here in a bit, but, yeah, could use the assist. EDIT: Oh, and I already added Victory Saber, Victory Leo and Star Saber.

You've barely even scratched the surface, TBH, but I think we'll have to resign ourselves to only archiving information on the important fanmades from days gone by. Characters like the Iron Wolves, Death Knell or that professor guy that Quick Switch used to play are probably never going to get entered. :(

I'll take a crack at working on the ones that I'm familiar with, though, and see if I can make a dent in things -- I've already done a page for Cobalt.

Wow, who made that image? That is kinda close, but the color is off, and the Decepticon logo is the wrong color as well, it should be yellow. I have all the official images of him from the Kiss Players collection book thingy from Japan, but most of them have him in frame with the female pop singers.

The images from the TFwiki article here are more or less all there is.

I used that one originally, but dropped it due to the lack of a full body shot. Didn't you have a sig of the character? I recall it being kind of cutesy, but I think it may work. The problem I have with the current one, is when you photoshop black or dark blue (I used Howlback rather than Ravage), the white comes out really grainy, or this case too bright. But thanks go to Blackjack for the idea, though.

EDIT: If you have page scans, that would work too. Can always just photoshop the color in.

I think Ackula's sig will work...

Wow. That's a lot of fanmades.

EDIT- Waitaminute... since when do I control Tigertracks? I think it was opskids.

Fixed. Warcry originally had me down as the current player (probably because I play a character that looks just like him, only red, white and black ;)), then I for some reason mistaken Tigertrack for another character Blackjack was playing. So there you go.

EDIT: By the way, optimusskids, characters like The Rolling Stock or Lady Loca are more or less on the civilian side of things rather than being plain ol' Decepticons right? Just want to make sure they're categorized correctly.

RE EDIT: Now that I'm thinking about about it. There are a few Sideswipe/Lambor clones operating through the ISS. An interesting coincidence. Well, okay, two of them are actually active, while one of them is "injured" and the other one dead.

Hmm, maybe that should be the template for all the other generic ISS NPCs running about.

Coincidence is a creepy thing...

For all it's worth, what happened to the Airfield battle?

All of the ISS officers who died in the Tagan Heights (Checkpoint, Dice, Stockade and Quasar, IIRC) were Lamborghinis, too.
