TF Character submissions (added another!)
Name: Nitrowave
Type: Cybertronian
Gender: Male
Eyes: Mint Green
Height: 19' 7"
Description: Lean build, light armor. Has Snake-oyl shocks on his helmet, which is the top of a 1998 viper GTSR (see references). Colors are a slightly dark grass green with metallic black racing stripes, which go from straight on his chest plate to waved on his legs. His chest armor is the front end of the dodge viper, which following the natural curve of the car, lays down more on his frame than outwards like most transformers. The hood's central vent is also his spark covering. This insignia ( http://xboxoz360.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/viper_logo.jpg ) is on the outside of his wrists and knees. the classic Side scoop of the viper is located on either side of his helmet, which also has the windshield (visor) and tail fin (Sides of helmet) located.
Personality: Think the Fonz with him, only less cheesy and more mischievous. He's not one to back down from a fight, even if he knows he's gonna get slagged. He'll run his mouth and kick as much as possible. Has a "slight" addiction to nitrous oxide, especially when he was younger, and gets a little fidgety when someone has the stuff around. Think toddler on a sugar binge. He WILL tackle you for a tank of NOS.
Likes: Nitrous oxide, going fast, causing trouble, videogames.
Dislikes: Being taken advantage of, his older brother Staticshock.
Squicks (DO NOT WANT): Anything goes! >D
Other: When cornered his engine revs like that of a hissing snake. Also rather young. Heard HERE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2KRBDKyB8Y&feature=related

Transformer-specific Details:
Faction: Autobot
Occupation: Infantry; intelligence.
Alternate Mode: 1999 Dodge Viper ACR with bits of the newer models on the hood.
Tools/Weapons: Two Energon katana "fangs" that come out of the outsides of his wrists; fixed facing towards his back and curved over his forearms. Infrared, UV and heat-sensor optic upgrades located in his olfactory system, which allows him to see heartbeats, sparks and pulses, as well as the circuitry/circulatory system of both mechanical and biological.
Preferred Generation: Animated, but it doesn't matter. :D
History: Fresh out of the autoboot camp, he was assigned to a ship that his brother was on. They were patrolling a few of the bridges when his brother and a few friends decided it'd be hilarious to toss Nitro out the airlock. He was making his way back to the ship when it was attacked by decepticons and went critical, sending the crew - and himself - to distant reaches of the universe. He landed on earth, while others who had made it to escape pods went elsewhere; it wasn't until several stellar cycles later he met up with Optimus and his gang, and later his brother, who had tracked him down.
