Current colors, with Ratbat

Quote:"Lazerbeak, eject. Operation : rock and roll !"

Appearance:See above.

Likes:Spying on everyone, a good ole rock'n'roll

Dislikes:people speaking at a music show, not-Decepticons

Pros:extremely skilled at spying, recording, monitoring, a good party animator

Cons:monotonous, and you don't want to turn your back on him

Background:Soundwave was the Decepticon Communication Officer back on Cybertron. Cold, mechanical and manipulative, he only answered to Megatron. After his master's disappearance, he was the first to leave to Earth, and currently serves and advises Inferno, until the day they find back their master.

Soundwave also fancies himself to be a guitar master, and regularly plays when not on duty. The Decepticon parties are always worth the trip !

Personality:Soundwave is a computer on legs. End of line.

Weapons:Lazerbeak : Soundwave's "sideckick". A robotic bird that can turn to an electric guitar. Lazerbeak is fitted with a camera and a mic, allowing Soundwave to spy even better on his surroundings.
This bird also has a built-in laser. Convenient for fights and shows !

Ratbat : Soundwave's other "sidekick". A robotic bat that can turn to a keytar. As Lazerbeak, he's also fitted with a camera and a mic.
His weapon is a sonic wave. Fancy to use as a radar !

RDFT (Radio Frequency Detector and Transmittor) : Capable intercepting coded radio transmissions, decoding them, and modulating them into whatever you want! With its state-of-the-art synthesizer, you can do a spot-on imitation of whoever sent the transmission, and the sucker at the other end won’t know the difference!

-Cerebero-Scrambler: First pioneered by visionary Torkulonian Jonthnkrayne, the cerebero-scrambler combines the simplicity of a handgun with the sheer horror of having your mind and soul ripped to shreds. This nightmare incarnate fires a simple beam that distorts optic impulses and brings their personal hell to life. Even the courageous of heroes will spring oil leaks as they plunge into fear and madness for up to five minutes! It’s psychological warfare made quick and easy for the mind-fucker on the go!

Products from Swindleco. Operation: arming you for over 50 million stellar cycles.


Powers and Abilities:Sonic Rumble : Soundwave can unleash sonic waves, that can devastate his surroundings. Even if he can do it on his own, Lazerbeak allows him to focus his attacks on specific targets.
Soundwave also has built-in amps.

Mind Buzzsaw : Soundwave has a limited telepathic ability which allows him to read surface thoughts. Further scan is possible with the specific devices.
It also allows him to control simple robots around him for a few moments.

Stage Frenzy : Lazerbeak can be used as a melee weapon.

Guitar Overkill : Soundwave can play both Lazerbeak and Ratbat at the same time, unleashing both lasers and sonic waves. He's THAT good.

Tidbits and Trivia:-Despite opposite sides, Soundwave actually appreciates Crimson Twilight, and would enjoy a show with them.

-Soundwave can play basically anything, but choose wisely when you ask him for a specific play.

-Lazerbeak makes a hobby out of perching on the Decepticon leader's shoulder. He's currently waiting for Megatron to return.

-When not on the battlefield, Ratbat is the Decepticons' accountant/logistician. A hard work when you're a bat, and your people go through ammo faster than water through paper.

-Soundwave and his minions make for a quite good rock band. The general disposition is : Soundwave (lead singer and guitar/keytar), Lazerbeak (guitar/visual effects), Ratbat (keytar/Sound effects), Frenzy (second singer/guitar/keytar, sound effects or loudspeaker) and Rumble (second singer/guitar/keytar, special effects or amplificator)

-Soundwave : superior. Reader : inferior.


Sample of how you will role play this character:Surprisingly, the day was calm in the Decepticon base. Inferno and the Seekers had gone for a mission, and both Dead End and Blitzwing had errands of their owns. This suited Soundwave.

"Lazerbeak : eject. Operation : replay." Soundwave's guitar turned into a robotic bird, which replayed every of the day's conversation. No emotion came to the Decepticon's face as Inferno's screaming filled the room once more.
But he was apparently pleased, as Inferno still cared for his original mission.

"Lazerbeak : cancel. Operation : rock'n'roll !" Back to guitar for the pet robot.

Soundwave walked out in the desolation surrounding the base. He raised his hand, waited ... and then started to play.
The sonic vibrations filled the whole area, and stones were thrown away by the waves. He then aimed his guitar at a large rock infront of him - which promptly exploded to pebbles.

"Observations : practice needed."
Various death threats :

-I hAfE SoO mAnY iDeAs, I cAn'T cHooSe !
-Let's share !
-For Megatron !
-Mind if I play accordion?
-You're already dead.
-Seconded.
-Step aside, commoners !
-I-I'm new at this d-death threat stuff.
-... Huh?
-Let us write the stuff of legends !
-Bow to Alpha !

And from higer-ups :

-Crush the Alphas !
-With any chance, it won't earn you a place in my Tome of Grudges, lad.
-Pray I don't let the bloodthirsty ones handle the issue ! Gyahahahahaaa !
-Decepticons : Operation : rock.
-I, Cruellock, shall rip you apart, wot.
-It was written, and I am merely Fate's pen.

-And when they're all done, I'll make you all better !
