Steeljaw

Permissions post aka, can he track you? What do you smell like.

2012-09-09T07:20:43Z

Since Steeljaw is an excellent tracker and relies on his sense of smell for a lot of information, I would love it if people who interact with him would give me some information on their characters scent and such.

Character name: insert name here <user name="putjournalnamehere">

Game played in: (if applicable. if not a game, just a quick idea of where you came in from. DM, memes, musebox etc.)

What does your character smell like: It doesn't need to be elaborate, just something he can use to identify them with. Maybe they smell of steel and gunpowder or fresh cut flowers. On a human for example, he could smell their shampoo, natural body odor, perfume etc. feel free to get creative.

Can he track them?: How strong is your character's scent and can he use it to track them down in calm conditions? Ex, you have an open post up, can he follow their scent to them? Any plot or plot related things I will still pm you for permission to track/find your character.

Anything Else: Is there anything else about your character that you think I should know?

Player Information
*Name/Alias: Chris
*Your Journal: N/A
*Age: Over 21, that's as much as I'll say.
*Contact Information: lunawolf [dot] lj [at] gmail [dot] com
*Characters already in the game: N/A

Character Information
*Character Name: Steeljaw
*Character Canon: G1 Transformers/Transformers the Movie
*Age: Ancient by human standards, at the very least adult by Cybertronian standards.
*Race: Cybertronian
*Timeline/Pull Point: Will likely be pulling him in from during Transformers the Movie. (Currently canon reviewing, point may change before application is complete.)

*History: (We will accept links to a wiki for Canon characters. However, in lieu of a link (for characters with short wikis or without much canon information) we would like to see a summary of the character's past in your own words. Try to include as little headcanon as possible. In the case of AUs/OCCs, we'll need more than just a wiki link!)

*Personality: (Please be clear, concise, and complete. We're looking for at least two or three paragraphs.)

*Powers/Abilities: (What special abilities does your character have? Assume we know nothing about them or their species (unless they're a standard human). Please include any skills or qualities of note, ex, 'experienced sniper', 'genius level intelligence', etc.
Overpowered characters will result in revisions. If your character is more powerful than one of the 13, you're doing it wrong. The Lambda is capable of dampening a character's abilities, so feel free to make use of this if you need to.)

*Inventory: He doesn't have a lot. His subspace contains a couple of energon cubes and a dish that lets him fuel himself without needing assistance. Having no thumbs can be a real issue at times. Being prone to rust as he is, he also has an emergency maintenance kit and a tarp large enough to cover him should he require it.

*Starting Polarity: Likely Nexus Prime or Prima Prime

If AU, how does your character differ from canon?: (Non AU apps may ignore this question. CRAUs and OAUs should get in to specifics here regarding what changes there are from their character's original canon. We'll need at least a paragraph explaining details.)

Writing Samples

*First Person Sample:

[The video flickers to life and a nearly horse sized, golden coloured, metal cat sitting on it's haunches and staring at the camera.

If you are a Cybertronian or robotic being, there is a good chance you can understand his words.
If you happen to be an organic you likely will not understand the brodcast and only hear growls, rumbles, chuffing, high pitched beeps, and so on. It sounds kind of like a cat chewing on a dial-up modem. You are pretty much out of luck understanding him, unless you have a device he can broadcast text to.]

{{Blaster? Ramhorn? Rewind? Eject? Anyone? This is Autobot Steeljaw please respond. I appear to be on Cybertron, however the scents and general geography are like nothing in my databanks.}}

[He paces back and forth a little, trying to settle himself a little and try to deal with what feels like a cut connection to his partners. It is an, uncomfortable and unsettling feeling,]

{{I am uninjured, but requiring assistance. Please respond.}}

*Third Person Sample: (This should be a few paragraphs of prose-style action. It should focus on your character, and should offer some insight in to their thought patterns, the way they interact with the world, and overall should give us an idea of both them and your own writing style. We like to see creativity used here in preference to rehashing of a canon scene. Optional Prompt: You wake up in the middle of a vast, unfamiliar, rocky terrain, underneath a strange sky. Who do you call for? What do you do?)

Final Notes: (Need to cover anything that hasn't already been covered? Use this spot. Or just ignore it if you've already gotten everything down.)

Steeljaw Info. Work in progress.

2012-09-07T12:30:20Z

Steeljaw is an Autobot and one of Blaster's cassettes.

Height: About 5 feet at the shoulder.
Length: About 9 feet nose to tail tip?
Weight: ? Heavy at any rate
In short, he's about the same size as a horse. Even if he looks longer and shorter due to his posture and such.

Age: ? Old by Human standards, at the very least adult by Cybertronian standards.
Likes: New smells
Dislikes:

Notes on how I play him
Steeljaw can communicate with other Cybertronians 'verbally' through his communications systems {{Like this.}}, but does not have a voice box capable of speaking human languages out loud. He can make a number of sounds like purrs, squeals, growls, hissing, barking (yes, I know it's not cat like... but he's a robot, not a cat. He just looks like a cat.) and so on.

Other possible ooc note...

Steeljaw does not have a voice box capable of human/verbal speech, he uses his communications systems to speak to other Cybetronians/robots/etc. He can make audible sounds but not words. His communication systems can create text on a device if your character has a digital/magical device capable of picking it up. Any human/etc hearing him 'talk' will just hear growling, noises and such if anything at all.

Anyone capable of hearing his 'speech' will be able to {{Hear him speaking like a normal person...}} unless his communications systems are damaged.
