History ( Optional as some like to make it up as they go along ) :
Updraft was created by Decepticon scientists as an alternative to the low-caliber soldiers (read: vehicons) the Decepticons currently deployed en masse. He was one of five, each specializing in a different category, all well-rounded. He was awakened during an Autobot assault on his home laboratory. His battle programming was, somehow, corrupted, and he spent the first few days of his life in a fugue-like state of delirium. Once he had assembled some semblance of self, he realized that he had no future on the desolate planet of Cybertron. He stole an Autobot ship, intending to leave Cybertron, but he was discovered, and the navigation system was damaged. After almost 2 millennia of drifting in stasis, Updraft eventually crash-landed on Earth.
Family ( Optional, some just have none ) :
Airfoil (Fellow experiment, deceased) Ramjet (Fellow experiment, missing, presumed deceased) Afterburner (Fellow experiment, deceased) Fuselage (Fellow experiment, deceased)

- Updraft is a capable warrior, able to go toe-to-toe with more experienced fighters.
- Updraft possesses nearly unrivaled speed in vehicle mode, well exceeding MACH 2.

- Updraft is fiercely loyal to any being he perceives as a friend.
Weaknesses :
- Updraft is psychologically unstable due to trauma early in his life cycle.

- Updraft has only mid-level endurance. Any relatively powerful blow will deal major damage.
- Updraft is naive, easily deceived by any relatively cunning being.
SAMPLE RP
Note that a piece of your history, your journey to Earth for example, could be used.
The first thing Updraft saw was the sigil. Angular and cruel, it sat at the center of the torso of the second thing he saw: a Decepticon warrior, awakening the sleeping warriors in each stasis pod in the facility. Updraft stumbled forward as, for the first time, his legs were burdened with supporting his body. Disoriented, Updraft winced as the warrior, who must have been some kind of officer, began shouting something about "Autobot scum."
The newly awakened squadron of warriors stumbled into the weak, obstructed sunlight of a dead world. Cybertron lay desolate before them, the landscape streaked and scored with carbon residue from energy blasters. Explosions rocked the landscape, adding to the scars of a drawn-out conflict. Nearby, two squadrons of warriors were engaged in fierce battle, red and blue energy pulses flashing between each side, devastating ranks all around. The officer who had awoken Updraft clenched his fist, roaring as he charged back into battle, his arm shifting to reveal a powerful cannon. The new warriors did the same, firing on the now-outnumbered Autobots before them. Updraft simply stared. The blue pulses of energy from the Autobot squadron now began picking off the new warriors. It was over in a matter of minutes. The Decepticons, even with their advantage in numbers, had lost to the higher caliber warriors of the Autobots. Updraft lay amongst the bodies of his squadron, his mind still fuzzy, wondering why he was leaking energon.
It was a miracle he survived that day.
