Spinbreaker
Character Description Form:
Name: Spinbreaker
Type: Transformer
Gender: Male
Eyes: Red
Height: 21'
Description: Spinbreaker is a glossy black with green highlights, mostly on his forearms and legs with some markings on his helm in robot mode, and his underbelly, wings, and tail in jet mode. His wings angle down in robot form, rather than up like a Seeker’s. His face is usually covered by a battle mask and visor that he doesn't bother taking off around other Decepticons.
Personality:. He’s cold and angry, with a hefty dose of resentment concerning the Seekers. He likes hunting Autobots; he hits them from a distance with his sniper-rifle, and never closes in combat if he can help it. He’s not a massive coward, but he’d rather run than go toe-to-toe with the big ‘bots. It’s his massive inferiority complex; he knows he’s not a melee fighter and can’t take on Optimus Prime or Ironhide, but he hates having it shoved in his face. So he avoids the situation and mocks the Autobots from on high, with plasma fire.
Likes: Being left alone. Hunting.
Dislikes: Autobots. Seekers. Other Decepticons. People in general.
Squicks: I'm fairly unsquickable. Feel free to maim/torture/slash/whatever him! I read and write both slash and het, and am not bothered by dark or disturbing plots.
Other: Spinbreaker is from the Decepticon city-state of Kaon, where “hovercraft” was synonymous with “Seeker kick-ball.” Add that to the fact that the Harrier is roughly half the size of an F15, and a bit less than half of an F22… Spinbreaker has little jet syndrome. He’s one of the very few to prefer his Earth alt-mode to his Cybertronian one. He likes to use his new speed to his advantage, hitting the Autobots from ambush than jetting out of reach. He’ll refuse to go into combat against other jets if he thinks he can get away with it. He’s only slightly faster than a human Harrier, and can’t break the sound barrier. He’s way more maneuverable than the average Aerialbot or Seeker, but even the slowest of them can run him down with ease.

The only story with Spinbreaker is my January exchange fic here.
Faction: Decepticon
Occupation: Short-range scout
Alternate Mode: Earth: Harrier jump jet (AV-8 Harrier II). Cybertron: scout hover-vehicle
Tools/Weapons: Short-range (twenty miles in favorable conditions) radio jamming equipment, plasma rifle that acts as his main gun in harrier-mode, up to six missiles that are only effective in harrier-mode
Preferred Generation: Designed for a post-2007movieverse campaign with G1 aspects tossed in.
History: He dislikes being around anyone with a set of wings that’s faster than him (i.e., everyone), and volunteered for a advance scouting unit mostly to get away from the 'flocks' of seekers on Cybertron. His unit was sent to Earth by Shockwave after Starscream returned, supposedly to keep an eye on Autobot activity while Starscream readied the army. In reality, they were ordered to locate the Decepticon survivors, the body of Megatron, and the remains of the Allspark. Shadowstorm, the team leader, is an SR-71 Blackbird who spends most his time monitoring communications from the upper atmosphere. Spinbreaker reserves an extra dose of hatred for the massive Blackbird, but the big jet is so much stronger and faster than him that Spinbreaker isn’t going to risk disobeying orders. This doesn’t keep Spinbreaker from bitching about orders or back talking - as long as he’s out of easy range.
