Profiles of the Transformers

[Commander Megatron]

TELETRAN-1/TELETRAN-2

Teletran-1/-2 is a supercomputer with unmatched logical reasoning and analytic capabilities; it can also serve as a communication ststion with a range of 3,000 miles. Its most powerful ability is contained within its scanning technology; it can analyzze local surroundings and then implement a reformatting program to restructure a Transformer's alternate mode too match the locale. It was this system that awakened the Autobots and Decepticons on Earth, restarting their conflict.

[Commander Megatron]

I have the Dinobot Profile from the TF Ultimate guide Dinobot.

Des, if you have anything to add to this go ahead!!

DINOBOT

A warrior to his spark core, Dinobot is a former Predacon who values honor and duty above all else. When he challenged Optimus Primal for the leadership of the Maximals, and Primal subsequently saved his life, an enduring debt of loyalty was forged. Dinobot's code of honor is so deeply ingrained it even permeates his DNA-as Megatron found out to his cost. His speed and savagery are backed up by his Cybernetic eye beams and rotary sword.

POWERMASTER OPTIMUS PRIME

Primary Function:AUTOBOT LEADER

Motto:"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings"

BIO
Optimus Prime is the greatest Autoboat of all time. When he walks into a room you can see the immediate change in evryone. Even the most tired, battle weary troops stand up straighter, reacty faster, and think better when Optimus Prime is around. It's not the same kind of behaviour that tyrants like Megatron ( ) instill in their soldiers; Optimus gets this reaction because Autobots respond to him without him even asking, like they all want to live up tp the standards of nobility he has quietly set for himself. Prime isn't a "do-as-I-say,not-as-I-do" kind of transformer. He doesn't command people, he leads them, and every Autobot would confidently follow him into the Inferno. No matter how bad or how hopeless the situation gets, when Optimus is on the scene the Autobots depend on him to solve the problem-and they would do anything help him to do it.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Optimus is the strongest and smartest Autobot there is. he is one of the best military planners and combatants Cybertron has ever seen, which is probably why he's worthy enough to bear the Matrix of leadership. His powermaster partner Hi-Q/Ginrai, is a brilliant scientist and programmer...tho he can be a little stuffy at times. Prime's trailer can convert into a field command station, complete with two double-barreled particle cannons, two laser rifles and a powerful main cannon, and a load of communications equipment. In his basic robot mode, Prime generally uses one of two laser rifles. He can also combine with his trailer to form an even more powerful robot mode, where he can use the rifles and the particle cannons. He also has the option of using that armament in his truck mode, though Prime could probably just drive through anyone or anything that got in his way.

WEAKNESSES
Optimus Prime is easily one of the most compassionate beings in the galaxy...thats not really a weakness, but it can be when your dealing with the most cold, ruthless and pure evil being in the universe, Megatron, (:D) who's willing to threaten anyone or anything to get what he wants.

DINOBOT

Motto: "Honor does not need to be won; but it must never be lost"

BIO
For Dinobot, the concept of honor formed the very core of his being. Upon losing a bid to usurpMegatrons command, Dinobot challenged Optimus Primal for the leadership of the earthbound Maximals. Instead, Primal wound up saving his life, and thus indebted Dinobot joined the Maximals. Despite his defection, Dinobot remained a predacon at heart, often pursuing his own ends, and this seemingly contradictory set of values led to conflict with other Maximals, in perticular Rattrap. When Megatron targeted an anceint human tribe, dinobot fought the entire Predacon team and wo, gaining that which he had sought his entire existence: An honorable death in battle.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
In beast mode, dinobot can run up to speed of 45mph. His teeth and claws contain metallic alloys and can be used to tear into his victims. In robot mode, he is tremendously strong. his optic sensors can fire concentrated laser beams. his tail transforms into a spinning blade weapon that doubles as a shield. He also wields an electron-sword with devastating efficiency. Having spent years studying various forms of Cybertronian martial arts, Dinobot is particually skilled in hand-to0hand combat.

WEAKNESSES
Dinobot's sense of honor can be used to put him in disadvantageous situations.

AXER

Primary Function:BOUNTY HUNTER

Motto:"No prey is too large, no fee is to small."

BIO
Axer began honing his skills as a freelance peacekeeping agent on Cybertron and throughout the known galaxy; he enjoyed the job not just for the pay, but for the helpless scared looks on his targets' faces. After joining the Decepticon army, he abandoned the pretence of being a "peacekeeper" and shifted to full time bounty hunting and assassination. Because of Axer's reasonable fees, the Decepticon high command is pleased to employ him to hunt down or eliminate key Autobots. he gladly took the pay cut from his previous position, he feels the freedom to blow away a terrified, f;eeing target without consequence is well worth it.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject is one of the most naturally skilled trackers and detectives on Cybertron; tends to rely on his own knowledge and intuition rather than devices to locate his prey. In addition to standard energy weapons, he uses a magnetic-lock targeting destabilizer rifle that automatically homes in on metallic targets and paralyzes them.

WEAKNESSES
Subject is rather slow physically, but makes up for it with his turbo cycle.

[Commander Megatron]

BLAST OFF

Primary Function:SPACE WARRIOR

Motto:"I destroy Autobots by choice, not command."

BIO
Blast Off is a cold and aloof aristocrat who acts liek he doesn't need the company of other, lesser Decepticons. He does this to cover up the fact that his frequent, extended stays in orbit make him unbearably lonely. he often acts as a space-based sniper, raining destruction down onto planet-bound targets. In this function, he never sees his enemies face-to-face and doesn't get to witness the horrifying aftereffects of his attacks, which may be why he can do it so casually.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
In shuttle mode subject is capable of reaching escape velocity and remaining in orbit for up to eight months at a time. Top speed in this mode is 26,000 mph, and is armed with a [owerful; and accurate X-ray laser that can hit targets up to 12,000 miles away from orbit. in robot mode, he is armed with an ionic blaster and two leg-mounted cannons. Subject joins with the rest of the Combaticons to form Bruticus.

WEAKNESSES
Subject exhibits no known physical weaknesses.

[Commander Megatron]

BRAWL

Primary Function:GROUND ASSAULT

Motto:"I was built to be wild."

BIO
Brawl is a loud, noisy irritant who pushes around everyone weaker than he is. He's got a hair-trigger temper that can turn against the Decepticon who is standing in his way just as easily as any Autobot enemy. Despite his wildly tempermental and belligerent nature, Brawl is incredibly skilled and effective as a warrior. Onslaught often employs him to spearhead Combaticon offensives.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject is very strong and well armored. In tank mode, has a maximum speed of 45 mph, with a range of 600 miles. Turret fires explosive shells with the equivalent force of 200 pounds of tnt, and rear mounted twin sonic cannon fires 300-decibel bursts of concentrated sound. In robot mode, Subject uses a 10-megawatt electron gun. He combines with the other Combaticons to form Bruticus.

WEAKNESSES
Subject's inability to stay quiet prevents him from sneaking up on anyone.

[Commander Megatron]

SWINDLE

Primary Function:MUNITIONS EXPERT

Motto:"Make deals, not war."

BIO
Swindle is a greedy hustler. he's a charming fast-talker whose optic sensors are always scanning the crowd for the next mark to scam. Unlike his fellow Combaticons, Swindle isn't a devotee of war perse; he just loves all the opportunities it presents to him for making a profit. Swindle is dedicated to the Decepticon cause because he knows their aggressive ways will keep wars going indefinitely, which means more chances for him to get a kickback from selling weapons. A ruthless capitalist out for number one, he'd even sell to the Autobots....if he thought he could get away with it.


WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject is an expert on most known forms of weaponry, and their current pricing. Also an experienced salesman. In vehicle and robot modes, wields a small gyro gun that disrupts targets'balance and a scatter blaster that fires bursts of explosive pellets. Joins with Combaticons to form Bruticus.

WEAKNESSES
Prone to flipping over when making sharp turns.

[Commander Megatron]

VORTEX

Primary Function:INTERROGATION

Motto:"I'm Vortex, fly me - if you dare!"

BIO
Vortex loves to instill fear in his captives. He's studied the art of interrogation, and his tactics capitalize on his victims' fear of pain and death to squeeze information out of them. He'll drag them around while in helicopter mode, dangling them over treacherous terrain while spinning about wildly. disoriented and terrified, Autobot soldiers are often willing to spill any informationto get the "ride" to stop. Not surprisingly, the only thing Vortex liks more than the interrogation is its completion, when he drops his victims to their deaths.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
In vehicle mode,Subject is highly maneuverable and travels at speeds of 300mph for up to 1,200 miles. Rotor blades possess the ability to create 200-300 mph wind funnels that subject has moderate directional control over. In both robot and vehicle modes, Subject is armed with semi-automatic glue gun and twin cannons.

WEAKNESSES
Subjest exhibits no known physical weaknesses.

[Commander Megatron]

NAUTILATOR

Primary Function:UNDERWATER EXCAVATIONS

Motto:"Blame someone else before they can blame you"

BIO
Nautilator loves the ocean, but the feeling is not reciprocal. He was originally a land-based Transformer who was assigned to the Seacon team without any amphibious training; though he enjoys the environment, he is plainly not suited for it. He is a poor swimmer and often has to be rscued from the depths by his Seacon companions, who have grown more than a little tired of his incompetence. Nautilator reacts to his insecurity about being unable to adapt to water by lashing out at his comrades. he only manages to make himself even more unpopular by blaming them for his own errors.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject has above average strength and great endurance. His lobster-mode legs contain seismic, sonic, thermal, magnetic, chemical and electrical sensors. that he uses to locate objects of value on the ocean floor. His claws are very powerful and can slice through most metls with ease. His triple crusher cannon fires bands of energon that encircle a target and tighten until it has been destroyed. He can also convert to a weapon mode where he becomes a cannon that fires heat-seeking torpedoes. Subject can join with other Seacons to form Piranocon. Because of his incompotence, the Seacons often opt to let Subject function as the weapon for Piranocon rather than let him merge with them.

WEAKNESSES
Subject is highly incompotent, and his comrades often consider abandoning him. A gyroscopic error gives him poor navigational abilities, and he starts to rust if exposed to water for more than 7.23 breems.

[Commander Megatron]

OVERBITE/JAWBREAKER*

Primaary Function:UNDERSEA TERMINATOR

Motto:"There are only two kinds of creatures: predator and prey."

BIO
Overbite is the most relentless hunter among the Seacons. Much like the shark his transformation mode emulates, he is in constant motion, endlessly searching for prey to destroy. As soon as one target is terminated, Overbite immediately moves on to seek a new one. when he does take a brief moment from hunting Autobots, Overbite enjoys senseless attacks on ocean wildlife or other innocent parties, like human ships. He'll tear a hole in a cruise ship just so he can enjoy the sights as he swims through the debris mixed with terrified, drowning humans.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject possesses above-average strength, intelligence, and endurance. He is virtually unbeatable in underwater combat. In shark mode, he can raech speeds of 70m knots, and his teeth and claws can tear through the hull of a battleship. He is perfectly adapted to underwater operations and only needs to surface for maintenance check-ups. In robot mode, he carries a freeze blaster that can trap his foes in blocks of ice. He can also transform into another offensive mode, becoming a corrosive jawbreaker cannon that also has tidal wave-producing capabilities. He joins with his fellow Seacons to form Piranocon. He was designed to function as Piranocon's main weapon, but Nautilator's incompetence often means he has to act as a limb instead.

WEAKNESSES
On land, Overbite is slow and awkward, losing his combat advantage.



*When repackaged for the U.K. market Overbites name was changed to Jawbreaker.

[Commander Megatron]

SEAWING

Primary Function:UNDERSEA RECONNAISSANCE

Motto:"The darkest depths reveal the darkest secrets."

BIO
Seawing takes an arrogant pleasure that the ocean's creatures, and even some of his fellow Decepticons, are terrified by his grim presence. He feels that it's best to rule through fear and thus reasons that he is destined to be a leader because of his power to frighten others. Most suspect that Seawings's dedication to his job is just a way of grooming himself for a future command position, and he doesn't do much to deny this assumption. Seawing's relentless about all things, from destroying an Autobot to patiently preparing to lead.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject has above-average strength and great intelligence. He is highly skilled at recon and espionage as well as underwater combat. In manta mode, he reaches speeds of 110mph using a sensor array that includes sonar to scour the ocean for information. He can find a metal chip 20,000 feet away. He has life-sign sensors that that let him hone in on any living creature within a 20 mile radius. In both modes, he's armed with two venom rifles that shoot paralyzing laser beams. He can convert into a weapons mode, becoming a dual proton cannon. he combines with the Seacons to form Piranocon.

WEAKNESSES
His optic sensors are attuned to the dim ocean depths, making him sensitive to bright flashes of light. Some Decepticons are threatened by his intention to command.

[Commander Megatron]

SKALOR

Primary Function:AMPHIBIOUS ASSAULT

Motto:"I stink, therefore I am."

BIO
The other Seacons give Skalor a wide berth not because of an attitude problem, but because of his exceedingly poor hygiene. his poorly regulated internal fluids are constantly seeping through his joints and crusting over, making him a foul-smelling mess who leaves a disgusting trail of filth behind him wherever he goes. His coworkers often offer to correct the simple problem, but Skalor refuses out of hand. He doesn't understand why his personal hygiene should concern them and immediately directs the conversation elsewhere. Skalor uses the fact taht his odor repels enemies as an excuse for not fixing the situation when, in fact, he's just a lazy slob who can't be bothered to take care of himself.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject has abover average strength and great endurance. his creature modeoperates just as well on land as underwater; in water, his maximum speed is 35 knots with a range of 4,000 miles. He has a vacum in his mouth that allows him to connect to the hulls of most ships. He then tears through them with his diamond-tipped teeth and siphons off their fuel. He is heavily armoredin all modes. In both modes, subject wields two weapons he calls his "crustration rifles"; one rifle fires an adhesive and the other shoots shrapnel shards, covering targets with the tough sticky particles until they're immobilized. he can also convert into a double-barreled corrosive slime-shooter rifle. He combines with the Seacons to form Piranocon.

WEAKNESSES
Subject's leakage problems lead to constant, albeit minor breakdowns due to low internal fluid levels. His comrades tend to avoid him, which makes close teamwork difficult.

[Commander Megatron]

TENTAKILL

Primary Function:UNDERWATER DEMOLITIONS

Motto:"Embrace your enemies...until they are terminated."

BIO
Tentakill is all soft words and gentle gestures-until he gets close enough to strike. Thats when he attacks with ferocity equal to whatever charm preceded it. He uses his seemingly amiable nature to lull Autobots into a false sense of security, telling them he really doesn't want to fight, that the Decepticons are forcing him to do it and he wants to defect,etc.When they let their guard down, Tentakill takes the opportunity to destroy them. He prefers to get close enough to grab them in his Tentacles and look them in the eye as he crushes them so he can watch their expression when they realise they were duped. Even more disturbing than the perverse pleasure he takes in these killings is the fact that he can go back to talking amicably with his fellow Seacons right after such a murderous betrayal.

WEAPONS/ABILITIES
Subject possesses great strength as well as above-average intelligence and endurance. In octopus mode his electromagnetic tentacles can crush even heavily armored objects with ease. the tentacles also shoot out current that stuns targets on contact. Subject can shoot a cloud of thick black grease to deter and confuse enemies. In robot mode, he is armed with slime cannons that shoot adhesive ooze. He can convert into a 50,000-volt lightning rifle. He combines with the Seacons to form Piranocon.

WEAKNESSES
On land, Subject's octopus mode is highly unstable. An occasional wiring glitch locks him into whatever mode he is currently in.

[Time Traveller]

TENTAKIL (Super God Master Force)
Function: Early-series combat practice
Motto: "Skreeaaagh! Chak?"
BIO: Tentakil never transforms. They (they're like insecticons) waddle around destroying costal cities and making ridiculous vocal and tentacle-writhing noises until an Autobot Pretender or two interrupts their activities and hits them, causing them to explode. Eventually they see use as a part of King Poseidon, but Turtler doesn't show up til mid-series.
Weapons/Abilities:
Tentakil has the uncanny ability to show up out of nowhere, in numbers. Tentakil has no robot mode. His tentacles can be used to destroy buildings, and catch hostage humans, but are little good for combat. Tentakil also has head lasers which cannot be aimed to hit the broad side of a Tokyo skyscraper. Lastly, a tentakil can look questioningly at the big sword about to explode him and say "Chak?", causing much hilarity among viewers, which might cause them to miss the witty line following their doom.
Weaknesses:
Tentakil explodes when hit. Period.
