The Intergalactic Highway

I suppose that might be difficult for him to answer. Specifically, "mech fluid" doesn't have any exact mention as to what it is.. though it may be a type of oil, it's often mentioned as a type of blood or a drink.. but in some cases Energon is also uses as a type of blood. So it's probably Energon for simplicity sake.

Okay, sounds good to me. I was just curious and thought there might be a difference between them. Usually everyone else is so picky and technical about this stuff...

I think only way we should allow more cats is if they pick something that is obscure.. like an Ocelot or Sandcat.

Ocelots, sandcats, caracals, servals, jaguars, savannahs, snow leopads... Cats are cats. I want to encourage more different, unique beast modes so there's diversity in characters' abilities and what not.

I was actually going to ask how you would want to introduce my character. Since his biography had him working for the Tripedacus Council at one time, I not sure how he would have ended up in a Maximal stasis pod. I am open to suggestions.

Anyways, how does one introduce a character? There are 2 common options:
1. Ship crashlanding (but he must have a legit reason to "visit" Earth or something else.)
2. His pod already crashed landed and he has been lurming around for quite sometime.

Perhaps he was a stowaway in a pod on the Axalon that the Tripredacus Council assigned him to? That way he can emerge from one at any point, or already be roaming around after his pod was forced to crash or land by the Vok and activated. Maybe Night Terror can actually be linked to Ravage as well when/if we have Ravage in the game. I assume we will. But if that's not appealing to you, yes, he could be piloting his own little ship or "star hopper", run into the transwarp wave and be "transported" to prehistoric Earth and land or crash on the planet.

I really like both of these ideas. Either way once Night Terror learns that Ravage is working with the Council, we will probably begin working with him.

Welcome to the club, admiral! Profile looks awesome!

You know.. about the animal alt modes.. It's not just felines that's an issue. There's little diversity among most characters.

There are a few more inactive ones but I don't think they'll be returning any time soon..

If I may interject. I like the idea of this new character being linked to the Tripedacus council but in my opinion such a bot should arrive in a much more formal manner. I think he should arrive in his own ship. He's a tactician, someone who could be in charge. So my suggestion is that he has brought soldier(s) with him. This is the part where I'd like one of them to be a new character of mine. Only if this is okay with Admiralgrim of course. I just think a character like Night Terror would come with others.

I agree. He is unlikely to come alone.

I am perfectly fine with that.

What I will do then is put a character bio together for someone who can play the muscle.

Buncing off this idea, doesn't Tarantulas work for the Tripredacus Council? Maybe (assuming Darkspark agrees to it anyway, I realize I don't speak for him, it's just an idea) Maybe Tarantulas and NightTerror (and Mysterea's character) know each other or are working together. Another idea...perhaps things changed with Tarantulas' original mission regarding Megatron and NightTerror was sent to inform him of the changes and brief him of the new mission. Of course, Ravage could be involved too later if we wanted to have Ravage as part of the game at all. Perhaps that's part of the changes to Tarantulas' mission.

( I'd always assumed Turantuals would know them. Per haps they were sent because they lost his signal or maybe they were following the whole time except they exit the portal later on in time. I like the idea of these 3 agents of Tripedacus council. The devious schemer, the intelligent leader, and the mindless muscle. Each with interesting back story)

I personally like the idea as well. But it is still up to DarkSpark if they know each other.

And then there's Arachnitron......I'm sure the Tripredacus Council would disapprove of her relationship, so to speak, with Tarantulas....assuming Darkspark wants to play along with this story line.....

I am still catching up with what has happen so far, so I am not really sure about that one.

I am sent a pm to DarkSpark to see what he thinks, but I have not heard from him yet. I think it would be a great idea! If he doesn't want to go with that, then it would still be interesting to how Tarantulas would react to them.

I personally can't wait to see how this would play out for all Predacons on planet. Not to mention what the Maximals would think.

I am still catching up with what has happen so far, so I am not really sure about that one.

Long story short......Arachnitron was a genetic experiment which resulted in some glitches regarding her personality circuits. She has three separate personalities: Maximal, Predacon, and Hybrid. She escaped the research facility where she was living and ended up on Earth. She initially followed the Maximals around, but because her personalities were switching so often and each one isn't aware of what the other one had done when it was in control, she became confused about things and misinterpreted some of the Maximals reactions and intentions. There was an attempt by the Predacons to abduct her (though at the time they thought it was a rescue mission since she was of Predacon design, not a Maximal protoform) which resulted in her being consumed by fear, confusion and delusions prompted by witnessing the death of a Maximal. She ran away and ended up with the Predacons after mistakenly believing that the Maximals didn't trust her, didn't think of her as one of them and wanted her to leave. This all eventually lead to the Hybrid getting Tarantulas to help her keep the other two personalities at bay using a device he dsigned called an Inhibitor Chip. This is why she is currently strictly loyal to Tarantulas and Tarantulas alone.

So could Ironclaw be potentially causing some disruption with this chip? I think it would be great if she slightly went nuts at this point. So when Ironclaw lets her go because he obviously isn't not gonna get the chance, she could go mad and be useless to them anyway.

I'm not sure. Darkspark would have to answer that one since the chip was his creation. I think it's all internal though like a computer program. But psychologically and emotionally, yeah, being grabbed is definitely going to set her off. Not as bad as before the chip was inserted, but enough to show that perhaps the chip isn't the solution to her problem...at least not the only solution.

Nope.
