HOT ROD
RODIMUS PRIME
HUMAN
History: Hot Rod used to be an everyday kid with dreams. Orphaned when he was too young to remember Hot Rod went to the Simfur academy where he was just ignored by other kids except one, his girlfriend Velocity. However, one day, she was captured and had a self-destruct device implanted on her in case anyone tried to break her out before they could experiment on her. Hot Rod rescued her, but the self-destruct mechanism activated automatically and Velocity jumped from the roof of the Simfur academy. This incident left Hot Rod so damaged psychologically that he decided to exile himself to the Cybertronian desert.
On the desert he hunted for turbofoxes and lived a harsh life, until one day, scouting around Iacon for supplies, he found that it had been totally destroyed. He looked around and found that the only survivor was a young pink girl named Arcee. Hot Rod took good care of Arcee and they both became instant friends. They were soon captured by the forces of Straxus and almost sent to the Smelting Pool, but they both fought their way out and sent Straxus hurtling into the Pool. After that, Optimus Prime heard about Hot Rod's bravery and gave him a position on the Elite Guard.
Things on the Elite Guard were quite strained for the young recruit. He was constantly chewed up by commanding officers and treated with scorn by top leaders after he was assigned to lead a dangerous mission to the desert, where his platoon was ambushed by Decepticon Drones. This incident increased Hot Rod's PTSD, and now, there was no way to fix his psychological damage. He then disobeyed orders after Arcee had been captured and they were both kicked out of the Guard and considered a disgrace.
However, Optimus Prime secretly assigned Hot Rod to search for the Creation Matrix. With the help of Arcee and veteran Autobot Detective Nightbeat, Hot Rod found the Matrix and became Rodimus Prime.
However, things were still looking bleak for Rodimus, as his team of Protectors was made out of the most violent and brutal Autobot, Decepticon and Predacon warriors there's ever been. They were on the run for a while, until one day, all the Protectors, with the exception of Nautica and Daytonus, were captured and sent to the Elite Guard camps. They were all separated. One by one the Protectors started dying from exhaustion and illness, while others were executed. Their bodies were all thrown into smelting pools. Rodimus still had hope to see Arcee again (whom he had married by now, and they both had a little daughter named Ariel), and when the Elite Guard commander at that time was finally executed, Rodimus set out to search for his wife and child.
He soon found out the truth that both Arcee and Ariel had died, and this broke his already shattered mind even more. He exiled himself into deep space, hoping to never become close to anyone else again.
Weapons: Photon Lasers (Hot Rod), Electrostatic Discharge Rifle (Hot Rod), Photon Eliminator (Rodimus Prime)
Powers: As Rodimus, he is the keeper of the Creation Matrix, a powerful relic with the ability to light the Autobots' darkest hour. The Matrix also allows him to contact his fellow Autobots whenever Rodimus can't use a comm-link and it can also be used to repair damaged Autobots in battle. He's quite fast in vehicle mode.
Skill: He is quite adept at Math. It was his favorite subject back at the Simfur academy. He is also a safecracker and thanks to the Creation Matrix, he's also a healer.
Trivia (Optional):
-A radically different take on Rodimus compared to the one in the other RP. Here, Rodimus is a broken man who has lost all hope, his dreams completely shattered by tragic incidents and trying to stay away from everyone.
Sample of how you'll play this character:
Daytonus and Nautica find Rodimus sitting on an asteroid.
"Rodimus???" asked Nautica with concern.
Rodimus just didn't answer.
"Roddy, come back wit' us... we need ya." said Daytonus.
"Never... I don't want to fight anymore... I've been fighting ever since I was a kid, and I wasn't able to save any of the people I cared about... Lotty, Arcee, Ariel, Windblade, Smokescreen, Nightbeat, Minerva... they're all gone, because of me..." said Rodimus with sadness and grief..
"But Roddy, please..." said Nautica, with tears in her eyes.
"Just go away... leave me alone..." said Rodimus as he teared up.
Daytonus and Nautica look at each other sadly as they go away. Rodimus just despairs as he sits in the asteroid, hoping that his life and suffering would end soon.
