Player Alias: Shotimus
Character Name: Grimlock
Allegiance: Autobot
Appearance Description:
Towering above the rest of his Autobot companions, Grimlock is a tall mech sporting a green and black paint job. He's rather bulky, and retains his sharp teeth when in robot mode. When in his alt-mode, he turns into a large Tyrannosaurus Rex, capable of smashing anything in his path with his tail. Unlike the real life thing, he keeps his longer arms in this form.
Personality:
Grimlock is a fairly simple minded Autobot, but far from stupid. He's vastly loyal and friendly, and will do anything to help his friends whenever needed. However, the one thing that Grimlock loves above all else is punching anyone and anything that gets in his way. Mech or femme, he'll punch you if you anger him or if you try to harm one of his friends.
He doesn't see himself as a bad guy, even if he used to have a streak for wrecking things. He just wants to make up for his past mistakes and save the day with his new Autobot and human friends.
Weaponry:
Unlike the average Cybertronian, Grimlock does not carry weapons on his person on a day to day basis. He believes in using his fists, or tail if in his dinobot form, to bash his way through his opponents. This isn't to say that he won't occasionally use a Decepticon Hunter stick, provided by Fixit, when absolutely need. He just prefers punching his foes.
Strengths + Flaws:
Grimlock is a Dinobot, which makes him quite a powerhouse all on his own. His brute strength alone is a valuable asset to the team. He's capable of breaking through barricades that other Autobots can't, though he does have his limits as to what he can damage. Grimlock's also been shown to be rather creative at times, coming up with different ways to disguise himself as a vehicle, though most of these attempts are pretty obvious. However, he at least tries.
He's loyal and trusting, and willing to give others a chance should he see a reason to. While Grimlock might be all brawn, he isn't exactly no brain. He isn't as 'smart' as the rest of his teammates, but he doesn't let it get him down. Sometimes it'll cause him to get into trouble, but Grimlock always does mean well. This can sometimes lead him to be a bit gullible, such as when Scowl tricked him into letting him go just because he claimed he wouldn't harm the humans.
Another of Grimlock's weaknesses is his own alt-mode. He doesn't have a vehicle form like most Cybertronians, and turns into a T-Rex instead. This causes him to have trouble blending in when on missions, but he still tries to find simple ways to get past this, such as tossing wheels on himself and claiming to be a car. For the most part, he's dragged along on a trailer with a large tarp covering him when needed for a mission.
A bit of an irrational fear, but Grimlock has also been shown to be terrified of cats. It never helped him that Sideswipe also made up stories about them, claiming they can shoot lightning from their whiskers and attack in swarms. This is, however, something that Grimlock can overcome if given the right motivation, especially when he realizes that Sideswipe was making things up about them. It wouldn't stop him from punching a Decepticon with a cat-like appearance, however.
History:
Grimlock is a former Decepticon who was imprisoned on the Alchemor. He was captured for his crimes involving severe property damage. Once he broke out of his stasis pod when the ship crashed, he fought Underbite, and eventually reformed to the Autobots. He learned a lot from them, especially Bumblebee, and eventually put aside his enjoyment of destruction for the betterment of others.
He'd stay and fight against the Decepticons, recapturing those that he was held prisoner with. Even with every temptation to do bad, he fought against the urges to stay with his new friends.
