After the last character intro post forever ago, here's the bios of the SG Fragmentation Stunticons!
I had these ideas for a while now, dunno why it took me forever to actually write it lmao.
And as a preface, SG Fragmentation AU runs on the logic of 'mostly inverting their original personalities'. These descriptions are purposefully extremely out of character. in oppositeland SG the absurdity is part of the game.
SG Motormaster: The team's leader and an excellent motivator adept at making others feel like important and valuable members of the faction whose efforts are appreciated, regardless of specific rank and duty. Despite his somewhat intimidating size, he's very sociable and easy to talk to. However, his effectiveness in battle is extremely hampered by his overly cautious personality. He's a very careful driver off duty... which unfortunately affects his performance during combat, as he struggles to let himself go beyond the usual speed limits, and rarely pulls off any more risky maneuvers even if it's well within his limits, holding back the true extent of his capabilities unless in an extremely dangerous situation where there is no other choice. Outside of that though, he's a very attentive and caring leader and brother, whose concern for others extend beyond his team to all Decepticons and allies. He's at least a bit frustrating to fight alongside due to his usual slowness and borderline excessive caution, but is nonetheless considered by many to be a valuable member to the Decepticon cause.
SG Dead End: An eternal optimist that always sees the best in everyone and every situation, with an attitude that sometimes borders on naivete or being insensitive. Also an extremely motivated fighter that never gives up until the battle is over or he physically can't anymore. Is prone to being lost in his thoughts or admiring the surrounding scenery while not in active combat when threat of death is imminent, and frequently ends up losing sight of where he is, literally being named after his tendency to drive and walk into dead ends, and is thus banned from going outside without supervision. Is the friendliest of the bunch next to his big brother, and enjoys group bonding activities, mostly involving singing and music in general. In fact, he is a big fan of many genres of music with an extensive collection of both digital recordings and physical records.
SG Breakdown: Adventurous and brave, sometimes to the point of recklessness, and is the most frequent medbay visitor due to rushing in to many situations without thinking. Breakdown thrives in being the center of attention, redirecting the enemies' sight for the rest of his team to get in close for the kill, and is really effective at doing so. The loudest of the bunch and enjoys being among crowds, humans and Cybertronians alike, though his high energy can lead some to consider him obnoxious. His desire for recognition is secretly motivated by insecurity as he sees his brothers as more talented and capable than himself, and the desire for him to be acknowledged as more than just a part of Menasor. While he still has his destructive engine like his canon counterpart, Breakdown is also surprisingly adept at fixing different kinds of weapons and machinery, and is basically the resident tech guy.
SG Drag Strip: His laid back appearance around his comrades and low-key attitude hides his sheer number of achievements. Due to his speed and tendency to not draw attention towards himself, Drag Strip is one of the go-to choices for recon and scouting missions for the Decepticons, and has quite the prolific career as a reconnaissance specialist outside of being a warrior of the Stunticons. Doesn't know how to handle compliments, since he sees his work as something done as part of his duty as a Decepticon rather than something to boast about for personal attention. Drag Strip's tendency to not put himself in the spotlight and put others first sometimes comes as a detriment, as his willingness to put himself in high risk situations to secure a victory and subsequent unwillingness to get repaired immediately resulted in some accumulated long term injuries and multiple stern lectures by the Constructicons.
SG Wildrider: His name is purely ironic, originating from a bet between the three Decepticon combiners to give one component an extremely ironic designation. Wildrider is actually the calm and collected team strategist, whose general stoic demeanor usually throws others off, and is considered the least approachable of the Stunticons. He prefers reading in peace and quiet, though he will not object to hanging out with the rest of his team when they ask him. Sets strict schedules for himself and doesn't really like deviating from it. Although he loves his team and brothers and will not trade them for the world, their varying quirks and flaws more often than not throw a wrench into how he originally envisions a battle will go. Although he's capable of adapting his plan on the fly, Wildrider will always feel a little bit miffed that things don't go as planned, and he loathes fighting against enemies that are especially unpredictable.
