Nightscream stands about 9 meters tall. Her 'helmet' has a retractable visor that covers the entirety of her face when deployed and serves as a HUD. [b]Alternate form:[/b] [url=http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/assets/103292/K-m8_Space_superiority_Fighter.png]Cybertronian jet[/url]. As the word 'stealth' is not even in her vocabulary, Nightscream was against hiding on the human world from the get-go, not wanting to ‘downgrade’ to any human design. Her vehicle mode has the length of about 6 meters and top speed in atmosphere of about Mach 6. As usual with Cybertronian strikecraft, she is fully spaceworthy. [b]Weapons and tools:[/b] [i]2x retractable blades (Forearms)[/i] - Only available in robot mode. A last ditch weapons for when somebody manages to get too close to her. [i]4x energy blaster (Wings/Wrist pods)[/i] - The basic cannons. Not really powerful unless the target is hit with several shots, but with high rate of fire and good energy efficiency. [i]2x null ray (Hull mounts/Shoulder pods)[/i] - High-power weapons that can disable target's electronics (or nervous system) in a single shot and permanently fry it in few, depending on the target’s size. The downside is the reload which can take from 60 seconds to five minutes, depending on how much power is Nightscream directing to her other systems. [i]2x Fusion bomb (Bomb bay)[/i] - Only available in vehicle mode. Nightscream’s cargo bay can either hold 2 guided glider bombs or minicons/capsule transformers. [i]Disruptor field (Minicon/Cyber key/...)[/i] - When connected to a strong power source, Nightscream gainst the ability to generate an energy barrier around herself that protects her from harm for 60 seconds of continuous fire before it overheats and needs to cool down for 2 minutes. [b]Personality:[/b] Nightscream is not a very pleasant fellow, having her own ideas about how to do things. Her loyalties lie first and foremost with herself and her own well being. As far as decepticons go, she was loyal to Soundwave who has been her mentor and master since the beginning, but despised Megatron and Starscream for being incompetent. She is often indifferent to the actual battle between the 'Cons and the 'Bots, only on the 'Con team because she doesn't feel like dying for the greater good. In combat however, she is relentless. Wherever she goes, loud booms follow, as she doesn't believe in stealth, only in raw power. She can focus to the point of the world becoming nonexistent save for her objective, making her very determined, sometimes downright stubborn. Nightscream had an idea of forming a splinter faction within the decepticons, hoping to gain independence from them and the war. That was before Cybertron was abandoned by both of its leaders, leaving her to realize her plans without any disturbance from a high pitched voice commander demanding her to join air patrols and waste her precious time and intelligence. [b]History:[/b] Nightscream is a veteran, being an engineer long before Lord Megatron rose to power and serving the decepticons as one and also as field medic and air trooper for decades. Even from the beginning she chose to side with them more from wanting to be on the winning team rather than having the same ideology, always working on her own agenda. Thus she managed to survive to present day. Nightscream welcomed Megatron's departure as the war seemed to quiet down. With the uncertainty of survival, she is vigilant and on edge, trying to take over of as much of the decepticon intelligence network to get her eyes and ears everywhere she can so she could put her plan to motion. She started gathering followers that could help her find an alternate source of energy for their planet that would render them independent on supplies sent by those that left. [b]Extras and additional information:[/b] - She is a combat engineer. As such, Nightscream most of the time stays out of a fight or participates indirectly, however she will intervene if she thinks her skills are needed or the situation is rather dire. - Nightscream has a weird interest in Human culture and is especially fond of the movies. - Voice actor: [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alix_Wilton_Regan]Alix Wilton Regan[/url] - Theme: [url=http://fs-online.4fan.cz/tempfiles/Xbattle3.ogg]Jinki Extend OST, 18 - Game Kaishi[/url] [/hider] [hider=Earth form] [center][b][color=#9944DD]Name:[/color][/b] Nightscream [b][color=#9944DD]Former faction:[/color][/b] Decepticons [b][color=#9944DD]Role:[/color][/b] Engineer / Medic / Mad Scientist[/center] [b][color=#9944DD]Normal Appearance:[/color][/b] When choosing an Earth form, Nightscream was hard pressed to keep her body’s power consumption low enough. Thus she chose to make her actual body rather small for the day-to-day things and capable of powerlinking with additional parts attachable to her vehicle mode in a larger, more armored and armed Brute mode. In this form she is almost universally grey and silver with purple and yellow accents. Unlike her cybertronian form that was designed to work in labs, Nightscream’s Earth form is bulkier and more armored and also capable of flight in a proto form. Her face has a deployable visor and faceplate. (Same shape as [url=https://youtu.be/q9dLUwwg1Jg?t=45s]Armada Jetfire[/url]) [b][color=#9944DD]Brute Mode:[/color][/b] Nightscream can combine with the unused parts of her alternate mode that take the shape of the boosters and external tank. Her main body collapses it’s limbs to form attachment points of the larger limbs and additional armor made out of the disassembled ET. The boosters split in half, the bottom transforming into shoulder mounted cannons while the top transforms into a new set of arms ended in a heavy-duty three arm grapples for hands. In this form she is mostly purple with yellow accents and grey cannons and arms [b][color=#9944DD]Alternate form:[/color][/b] The space shuttle. Still not a proponent of stealth, Nightscream kept her usual color scheme. The main body of the shuttle is mostly grey, connected to a purple tank and grey set of boosters. The alt-mode is capable of functioning without the parts that form Nightscream’s Brute Mode, sacrificing thrust power for increased agility. [b][color=#9944DD]Weapons and tools:[/color][/b] [i]Plasma blaster (Protoform):[/i] A gun firing plasma bolts. Trades in rate of fire for heavier hit. [i]Shield (Protoform):[/i] A simple bit of heavy armor that serves as a shield. [i]2x Missiles (All modes):[/i] Wing mounted missiles. Nightscream can swap the warheads if she has alternatives available, but usually she will keep one armed with high explosive and another with an EMP warhead. [i]4x Energy blaster (Vehicle mode):[/i] The standard ranged weapon of choice mounted in the leading edge of the wings. Low energy consumption and damage, high rate of fire. Nightscream has the habit of cycling the barrels on her weapons, virtually quadrupling her rate of fire. [i]2x Rocket blaster (Brute mode):[/i] Monstrous cannons capable of bringing down buildings. They require several seconds of charge before firing and five minutes to cool down and consume unhealthy amount of energon, but one or two hits is all it takes to bring down even larger transformers or to disable a key system on a spaceship. [i]Null field (Minicon/Cyber Key/...):[/i] When connected to a strong power source, Nightscream gainst the ability to generate an energy barrier around herself that protects her from harm for 60 seconds of continuous fire before it overheats and needs to cool down for 2 minutes. She can expand the field’s volume at the cost of its longevity. [i]Laserbeak:[/i] Nightscream took possession of Soundwave’s deployer for the time being. He can launch out of her cargo bay in vehicle mode or chest in her protoform. She is unable to deploy laserbeak in Brute mode. [b][color=#9944DD]Personality:[/color][/b] Nightscream is not a very pleasant fellow, having her own ideas about how to do things. Her loyalties lie first and foremost with herself and her own well being, followed by other Seekers, her mentor Soundwave and then maybe some greater causes. As far as decepticons go, she was loyal to Soundwave who has been her mentor and master since the beginning, but despised Megatron and Starscream for being incompetent. She is often indifferent to the actual battle between the 'Cons and the 'Bots, only on the 'Con team because she doesn't feel like dying for the greater good. In combat however, she is relentless.

Nightscream had an idea of forming a splinter faction within the decepticons, hoping to gain independence from them and the war. That was before Cybertron was abandoned by both of its leaders, leaving her to realize her plans without any disturbance from a high pitched voice commander demanding her to join air patrols and waste her precious time and intelligence. Her projects came to be used in a different manner than she intended, having to give up her prototype chassis to extend the life of one of her new ‘comrades’ and in the wake of the threat of Megatronus, she is willing to enter the battle if it means liberating her brother from his grasp and making sure his influence will never extend to Cybertron.

[*]Nightscream has a weird interest in Human culture and is especially fond of the movies.

Suffice to say the seeker know whom to call upon if there is a building block that offends her. She enjoys schooling the younger autobot with mean and harsh devices, but does it in fact out of the goodness of hešr spark, trying to expand her ways of thinking. [*][i]Turbulence: [/i]She approves of him being in the autobot minority to actually use a flight capable alternate mode, as well as being amazed at his internal design. Unfortunately for her, it doesn’t look like she would be able to perform experiments on him any time soon. [*][i]Sklog: [/i]Having invested lot of her research resources into the former dinobot turned something greater than a predacon, Nightscream is interested in seeing if Sklog’s mind would be able to make use of the newfound processing capability and to what potential he can bring her invention. She does harbor some personal bond to the other decepticon, what with seeing him through his reincarnation. [*][i]Cyclonus: [/i]Primus! And I thought [b][i]I[/i][/b] was the relic of an old era here! [*][i]Blackarachnia: [/i]Ah, my favorite toy. Too bad it got infested and had to be burned. [*][i]Soundwave: [/i]Despite bonding to the point of referring to each other as siblings, one look will identify Nightscream as a seeker when the second will identify Soundwave as anything but, disproving the theory of them being related. Their bond goes just as deep though. [*][i]Trine: [/i]Nightscream did not share the names of her trine, whether they are still alive or what faction they fight for.[/list] [/hider]
