NAUTICA
Location: BridgeThe situation was deteriorating rapidly. For once, Nautica wished that she did not have skills that were useful to the running of the ship as well as any groundside mission. Thsi would all be simpler if she was one of the protoforms frozen in stastis. At least I would have died in piece. Bah! she thought bitterly as one of the maximals announced the door would not be holding up for much longer.
Getting up form the console where she was trying to isolate and shut down power to the bridge door to prevent it from being hacked, she ran over to the Maximal. "Well, if the door is to fall any second, then let it at least be of one last use to us." she suggested. Reaching behind the shell on her back, she produced a rectangular device with a timer on the front. "Breaching charge. It will turn the door into a missile. It should be weak enough not to blast a hole in the hull... I think. Once we breach, we can either charge them, or stay here and defend whoever is not flattened by it. Which is it going to be?"
Honestly the wildlife should be enough of a threat initially xD It's the zerg basically. How much worse can it get? Tyranids? :D
You making a character too Ben, or are you going full GM mode?
Also looking forward to see who the heck causes the mayhem. The line about experiments screams Quintessons to me, but since this is BW, maybe Vok?

Aye. Nautica will get along fine with whoever is not actively encouraging a division, although people who are not pro war OR pro unification might find her agitating for unification annoying xD
Name: Nautica
Faction: Biologically, she is a predacon, but identifies as a cybertronian. She does not use 'Terrorize' as her activation code, having changed it to the ancient 'Transform' instead.
Protoform: Science bot
Nautica is a combat engineer. As such she serves as a support to other combatants by using her extensive knowledge to help navigate obstacles, use explosives, repair equipment and even serve as a field medic. She is not fit for first-line combat, having less armor than dedicated battle bots, nor does her intelligence rival dedicated, non-combat scientists.
Beast Mode: Shellfish
Nautica's transformation is of a 'shell' type, with her protoform being enveloped by an alternate mode armored shell. As such, she is more vulnerable in her protoform state, relying on her alternate mode to get her through heat of battle. As such, she picked an organism that evolved a particularly sturdy shell by absorbing minerals into it's skin and forming hardened plates instead of the usual scales over its' critical organs. Her protoform is very fast and agile though, with the armor shell forming only a 'backpack' of sorts. She uses two fin blades as a primary weapon in her protoform. In her beast mode, she can hover in the air, up to two meters off of the ground, and move through air like water, albeit at reduced maneuverability due to the lower density of the gas.
Personality:
Background:
Nautica is one of the transformers who is fully behind the idea of unification, citing greater efficiency of such a civilization. That said, she recognizes that there needs to be a mechanism for differing opinions to be heard and given a chance to be evaluated fairly before one is selected to be put into practice.
She volunteered for the rescue mission, intending to demonstrate that predacons are capable of working towards a common goal.

"Oh, for sure! I'm sure I could help building some spare parts and stuff, I got tooling for most things electronics and machining manufacturing, and I can maintain hydraulics too." Vicky enthusiastically answered Mel, finding it easy to talk to the other geek. She wondered how was it that she missed this entire social class existed in the school for two whole years? It was obvious by the state of the kree ship that her people needed her!
Leah's answer left her in a bit of a stunned silence though. "Really?" She managed after a second, "Hoookay, making a note - Watch out for the snazzily dressed one." before she managed to even try and engage in further conversation, Leah's attention was directed elsewhere and she wandered off. Shrugging, Vicky turned back to Mel: "Let's meet at the stark hall lobby after the show. Ring me when you're ready to go." she said, following by telling Mel her phone number. "Now if you excuse me, I need to explore!" she said, her hands making a grabby motions towards the ship.
Making her way through what seemed like one of the main corridors, Vicky was noting to herself the extent of the damage, as well as guesses at the purpose of whatever exposed components were visible. It didn't take long before she arrived at what could have been a battle bridge, or maybe an enginerring section? And she was no longer satisfied with just looking. Taking a good look around to make sure noone else was around, she gently touched a busted console in the middle, feeling the surface for any seams that would allow for greater access inside.
Are we allowed some special gimmics? Like tripple changers, mimicry, combination sparks etc.?

You're not telling me anything mom and James didn't already, Vis. All of you adults are rather sparse with information on how exactly am I supposed to do that, though. Last I tried a short while ago, I told her my primary reason for existing and how it affects what I do, and she ended up taking it as an insult. Somehow I don't think that's a good friendship prospect...Vicky replied to Vision, keeping to herself the And I couldn't care less about my social standing with these guys, they are all just potential work if they ever lose their shit. part. Sometimes she felt like she would get better answers from r/AskReddit than from her elders.
Alas, one way to improve her number of friends, which right now included the sum of Tom and Mai, was presenting itself. After all, where should an introverted engineering nerd start looking for friends if not among extroverted engineering nerds? That's right, Tori. Baby steps! She smiled at the Starfleet Leia: "Oh, for sure! I actually sent you guys an application yesterday, although if you were organizing all this-" she pointed to the space hunk, "-It's no wonder I didn't get a reply. I'd be happy to show up, and I got my own place in the basement if you ever need more workspace! Oh, I'm Victoria." she briefly wondered if she should salute, make a V hand or something, before settling on offering a handshake.
Leah then walked by and asked to join herself, which Victoria loathed to admit surprised her a little - She had Leah pegged as a Jock type that spent all her time in the gym. She would have to update her notes in the evening, today was eye opening on many levels. "Oh, hi there. How'd whatever you went to do with Andy after the sword fight go?" she inquired off-hand to get more information.
Interested as well.
