Beast Wars OC-
Rave
Name: Rave
Faction: Predacon
Alt. Mode: Helicopter
Function: News Cameramech
Motto: “I’m your Eye in the Sky.”
Profile:
Rave always had aspirations far loftier than her station in life. Ever since she was a protoform, Rave dreamed of becoming Cybertropolis’ best Reporter. Being a Predacon though tended to shut more doors than it opened. Resigned to find a story to break through onto the scene herself, Rave accepted her role as a camera mech. And when she’s not filming traffic reports or high speed maxcop chases, she’s constantly getting her nose into everything with her trusty camera drone Shutterbug, trying to sniff out that story that’ll get her noticed.
Rave has made close friends with the Maxcop High Speed Pursuit and Capture Squad, Quicksilver and his commanding officer, Road Rocket. And while it’s obvious to everyone but him, she’s fallen completely in love with Quicksilver.
Abilities:
Rave is equipped with a lot telecommunications equipment. The back of her head module sports an extra quantum memory core, capable of processing and storing 5 Nano-Lums of recorded data. Without a satellite uplink, she can transmit up to 1,000 kliks.
She’s equipped with multiple cameras in robot mode. A holoscanner and projector in each shoulder, capable of recording and transmitting 3D holo-images. Head mounted visual and audio recording equipment, capable of recording the sounds of a fly from 1,500 feet.
Shutterbug is an autonomous flying camera drone, with limited artificial intelligence. It’s cameras are capable of zooming on an object from four kliks, and can transmit to Rave, with an independent range of one klik.
In helicopter mode, Rave is one of the faster individuals of her body type, enhanced with power boosters giving her extra speed to keep up with high speed chases. In this mode, she’s equipped with four cameras, providing her with a 360 degree directional recording field.
In defense, she is capable of putting on a disorientating light and sound show in this form, earning her the name Rave.
Weaknesses:
Rave’s curiosity and constant quest for the story that’ll make her famous is her greatest weakness. She constantly gets herself into situations that are dangerous, and that more cautious cybertronians would naturally avoid. Quite often needing her friends to pull her out of the fire.
Her boosters are designed for fixed wing transformers, and as such if she pushes them too hard, she’ll destablize herself and spiral into an uncontrolled crash.
If Shutterbug sustains severe damage or taken offline, the shock to Rave’s system is not unlike a limb being ripped off.
