Designation: Stormgear
Nicknames: Storm, Stormy, Shortgear,
Gender: Femme
Age: 20
Faction: Autobot
Occupation: Information and Intelligence Analysist, Sniper
Personality:Stormgear is the sweet lovable type who wouldn't hurt a butterfly, well, that's what's normally shown. Stormgear always seems to be positive and optimistic, who's not very afraid to speak what she thinks. This It gets her in trouble a lot. Stormgear normally is the type you'd find talking to a friend to make them feel better, or the first to break an awkward silence with no sweat.
Unlike cybertronians her age, Stormgear has a very high intellect. Easily estimated at a iQ of 220, most would be dumbfounded by her intelligence. Most of her knowledge is on computer programming, a little bit of physics, chemistry, mathmetics, and technology anatomy, and a ton of useless information she uses in crafty ways.
>> When you first meet Stormgear, it's uncertain if her kindness is a good thing or a bad thing. It's highly likely that Stormgear will seek you out, or asks you one of her many strange questions. She'll probably introduce herself without reason, and begin to babble about how she was glad to meet them. And so forth. If one has a very charismatic personality, Stormgear could accidentally come off intimidating..
>> Around allies and friends, Stormgear is the oddishly kind outlier, and isn't afraid to make others feel better (even in the worst of times). She asks a lot of questions, and even babbles about her latest theory, or something she really wants to do. This means she can also get in trouble. She may accidently say something at the wrong time..
>> Around enemies, Storm tries to take violence into other manners. She was raised to use her words first, and will try to negotiate. However, if words do not work, she's not afraid to take action with violence. Overall, Stormgear isn't an aggressor.

Weaponry:Plasma Sniper Rifle: A standard issued sniper rifle with a harder pick to it's ammunition. The bullets are designed to dig through the toughest armor.
Silenced EMP handguns: in a duo pair, these handguns are used for up close confrontations. The handguns, when fired at an individual, cause stunning effect for a short period of time ( one post effect ). This stunning effect gives stormgear time to get away from her enemy.
Shield: A standard shield that pops out of Stormgear's forearm. it's designed to absorb heavy hits for a very short amount of time.
Short Sword: stabby stab stab. this short sword is the equivalent of a longsword to tiny stormgear.
Some daggers: for easy accessible stabbing
Gadgets:Aim assist: For her sniper rifle. It helps her target.
Heat Signature scanner: Think your hidden? with this scanner, Stormgear can see heat signatures of anything in the scanner's path.
Energon Signature scanner: Simular to the heat signature scanner, only it involves cybertronian energon signatures.
Abilities:EDU
This 'tool', known as the 'Electrical Dispersal Unit', is a built in electrical conductor inside Stormgear's body. To add to this, she has coils built into her heels, wrists, and shoulders. The main conductor inside Storm's chestplate can create electricity, but only enough to make very short bursts of electricity. The EDU relies on outside sources, absorbing any electrical currents into the body. So if Stormgear is shocked, or electrocuted, Stormgear will absorb it. With this electricity, the edu can create multiply the amount of electricity it has, but not very fast ( if storm is depleted of electricty, it takes about 20 posts to refill ). However, if Stormgear 'maxes' out on electrical capacity, she MUST release the energy. The more energy she holds, the more stress it is on herself and her health.
Tiers:
1 ~ shock / spark (default 0 post cooldown)
2 ~ medium bolt / burst (medium storage, 2 post usage, two post cooldown)
3 ~ EMP burst (high storage, used to diminish stored energies. 1 post use, 10 post cooldown. This also causes bodily harm to Stormgear, and can even incapacitate her.)
Because of the EDU, Stormgear is immune to electrical types of damage and any form of EMP. Instead of taking damage, she absorbs it. However, she doesnt go scott free from the electricity. She can get hurt if the amount she takes in is overwhelming.
History:Stormgear has never been able to recite her early childhood. She never saw Cybertron, even on it's last days. Storm believes she was born at the very start of the exodus, and was adopted by a mech known as Medalink, a young medical officer on a smaller energon-carrier. The ship was one that had left cybertron in the eariler phases of evacuation. She was also (apparently) born with the EDU, despite it's near artifical properties.
Due to her childhood environment, It was very hard to do things a normal kid would do. Sparklings were rare, so she wasn't able to grow up with kids her age. She was treated like an adult, as long as she acted like one. Most of the time, she tried to keep herself together. But even Medalink couldn't deny her bubbly personality. As much as Medalink tried, teaching Stormgear how to write was hard, which slowly became a learning barrier for her. However, she slowly wandered into the world of coding, and pictures from anatomy textbooks in her adoptive father's office. These were the first steps of her intelligence..
Over the course of many years, Stormgear eventually was aloud to help in the med bay. She did more minor things, such as keep the computers for the records up, fix things, and even help clean and treat very minor wounds. She even went as far as to investigate her edu, opening up her wrists and heels with the help of her father. She slowly gathered data on this.. 'ability' she had. And how it wasn't like others..
Then the worst thing happened. Her exodus paradise was destroyed in a decepticon ship ambush, the raid killing most of the crew. Stormgear was separated from her father, which she evacuated herself into an escape pod. While the doors closed, she swore she saw her father killed. But was never able to confirm it...
Now on earth in a crashed escape pod, Stormgear has no idea if her father is alive. And if he is, where he may be.

+ very charsmatic. Words are Stormgear's strong suit.
+ Intelligence. Stormgear has a very sharp mind. Her intellect is hard to contain.
Weaknesses:+ short range. small size doesnt help against tanks.
+ writing is very hard. While stormgear is literate, writing is very hard for stormgear. this means her ability to communicate via pen and paper is challenging.
+ curious. this is usually her downfall. Stormgear is the type of person why snoops into things she is curious about. However, sometimes it causes stormgear to pry into unwanted places, and cause serious trouble for her and others.
