Player Alias: Shotimus
Character Name: Slipstream
Allegiance: Decepticons
Appearance Description:
Slipstream has the same body frame as most other seekers albeit more slender due to being a femme, having thrusters in the heels, null ray blasters on her servos, and the traditional wings coming from her back. She sports colors primarily in violet with accenting aqua blue with matching violet lips and ruby red optics. Slipstream is approximately the same height as all the other seekers.
When she takes to the skies, Slipstream takes on an altmode similar to an F-15 Strike Eagle
Personality:
She's beauty. She's grace. Say she's like Starscream and she'll punch you in the face! Slipstream is known for her cleverness which has gotten her into the higher ranks of the seeker army, capable of coming up with strategies and battle plans both ahead of the game and when plans need to be changed up on the field. However, there are times where she can be distracted from her own plans whenever certain enemies enter the fray. Oh you needed this ship guarded? Sorry. Windblade's here and she needs to have her aft kicked. Even so, she does whatever she can to keep her troops in line, even if it takes a more aggressive stance at times when they choose not to listen. Whether that's Starscream's influence or otherwise remains to be seen. She just hates it when others don't follow her commands.
Despite it all, Slipstream can sometimes get overwhelmed when given orders directly from the higher chain of command. Starscream she can handle, but an order from Megatron or Shockwave themselves?! Both an honor and yet terrifying at the same time given how intimidating they can be! She'll do her best to make sure the plan goes according to plan so she can please them, especially when she knows full well what comes from failure. When her troops cower more than she, Slipstream's the first one to step up and make an example out of herself. Maybe that'll put them in line!
Strengths + Weaknesses:
+ Loyal to a fault: Slipstream is incredibly loyal and would never betray Megatron or the Decepticon cause for any reason.
+ Good Example: When others aren't wanting to preform a task even when ordered to, Slipstream is the first one to take up the task even if she doesn't necessarily want to. Sometimes people just need someone to make the first move.
+ Clever Girl: Slipstream is clever and crafty, coming up with all sorts of ways to take down the Autobots. Sometimes ideas she doesn't expect will work actually do work.
- Intimidated by authority: Working under Megatron and Shockwave can be quite intimidating, and sometimes Slipstream lets this show under pressure. She'll preform whatever tasks they ask for, but that doesn't mean she isn't nervous about it.
- Overruled!: Slipstream's good at giving orders, but if Starscream decides to interfere she has trouble getting soldiers to listen to her. Whether it's gathering the troops or having them preform a task, they are nowhere to be found if Starscream got there first.
- My Nemesis!: While Slipstream stays focused on her missions, one sight of Windblade will immediately send her into a flying rage.
Abilities:
As a captain, Slipstream is good at barking out orders and usually good at getting others to listen up. As a seeker, Slipstream is also capable of flight.
Weaponry:
Null Rays and a blaster
History:
Slipstream's history is shrouded in mystery. While most know little to nothing about her life before the war, some know her as a scientist. Aside from this, sometime between her creation and the time of the war, Slipstream grew a bitter rivalry with Windblade. The cause? She's definitely not telling.
During the war, Slipstream rose through the ranks of the seekers. While she wasn't in the highest commanding position, she still sat on a pretty pedestal herself as captain. She fought the Autobots many a time on Cybertron, tasked to trail after the Ark and find it's location as well as the Allspark when the Autobots sent it out to coordinates unknown. It took many stellar cycles, but a couple of seekers in her command managed to track Autobot and Decepticon signals on Earth. Not wanting to waste the chance to continue her mission to find the Allspark, she beelined it for the organic planet to find the ancient relic and bring back their dead planet for the glory of the Decepticons.
She was, of course, confused by the Decepticon signals on the planet. Just how was it that they had already tracked down the Autobots when she and her seekers were already tasked to find them? Had she missed a communication saying they were all on Earth? It didn't matter, she supposed, because now she's here, ready to serve Lord Megatron and take command of her seekers.
That is.. if Starscream doesn't get in her way.
Roleplay/Writing Sample:
Honestly Slipstream couldn't believe the incompetency of her group of seekers at times. Thundercracker was always the first to bolt and it was like the mech forgot he could fly half the time! Acid Storm and Nova Storm kept falling short when it came to tracking down Windblade and Bumblebee as well. Honestly it was infuriating, but nowhere near as infuriating as listening to Starscream's babbling about her incompetence. She was doing the best she could with the hand she was dealt!
It just made her want to prove him wrong so badly, and she would give anything to watch that smug look be wiped straight off his face plate. Of course, she couldn't do anything to betray the cause or damage her own reputation any further than Screamer was dragging it through the mud, but imagine the look on his face if she actually located the Ark and Allspark in one go!
The femme seeker reached for her comm as she looked out past the horizon. "Nova Storm. Thundercracker. Acid Storm. Report. Any sighting of the Autobots?" Naturally there was an immediate pause, and right when Acid Storm could respond with a confirmed sighting the line went dead. Naturally they'd been knocked out.
Again.
"Ugh..! Fine. I'll take care of it myself."
