Smokescreen

"A look can be deceiving; a touch can be lethal."



Allegiance: Autobot

Appearance: Smokescreen goes for the flashy but not so memorable. He's mainly blue with red throughout his mid-section; there's a dash of yellow on his 'chevron', or a series of thin metal plates flaring back from his head slightly. He's pretty average at twenty-two feet, but tends to slouch and makes his height closer to eighteen or nineteen feet. He also has a vosir he 'aquired' in his younger days and it's still too big for him; because of this Smokescreen tends to hold it more than he wears it.
Allegiance: Autobot
History: Smokescreen was raised in Kaon, he was also sparked there but Smokescreen himself is a bit hazy on his early days. Having his head repeatedly bashed against a surface harder than itself might have had something to do with it. Smokescreen didn't know his creators, and doesn't much care to anymore. He developed just fine on his own. Smokescreen did attend the Military Academy, but dropped out once he realized everything he was learning was something he could learn even better (in his opinion) back at Kaon. He's not fond of the streets, but he does hold that doing is a much better teacher than some datapad and a too-careful instructor. He was generally well-liked while attending, though.

Now Smokescreen is heavily integrated with the black market and in particular the underground gambling rings. Anything you want done Smokescreen can get done, and get it done right. He's not cheap about it, though. He's tried to make a name for himself, and his smooth-talking, friendly nature is sure a help. Smokescreen can get inside someone's head and back out again with half the poor 'bots savings before they realize what's happening. The only thing Smokescreen doesn't get involved in is sentient trade. At all. Not even to help the poor 'bots trapped in it. (Though, of course, there might have been that one time...maybe two...but he didn't say that.)

(please forgive the G1 pic, but the only pic I found where he was in movie design...I'm not sure that's safe to use ^^; )
