Cross my spark and hope to die
Name: Thrift
Alias: N/A
Age: Human equivalent to mid 20's
Gender: Male
Alignment: Autobot
Class: Scout
--------------------------------------------
APPEARANCE
Thrift is around average size for a bot. If not that a little bit lower as he stands 28 feet tall. His build is primarily built for speed then for battle. Being a bit more able to be damaged in battle as his armor is more light for quick foot work then for fighting. Tending to use this over to his advantage as he will use momentum and strength of his opponent to go against them. Using that way to fight.
Arms and legs are average built, thin enough not to be overly strong while not thin enough to be considered weak.
Main colors that he has on his armor are black, yellow, and gray. Only with a small touch of green near his neck. While his hands ends in sharp claws with small space in between each tip to show the connecting wire works to them.
Eyes being blue though the outsides of them are black with the mechanical works of them to have his optics move around.
The ends of his feet are stopped with the tips of breakers as the inside of his leg at the bottom are the wheels to his alt mode while the rest of the wheels are on his back.
At his face are his face plate and helm. His helm having two pieces of metal being slightly above his head while the rest is a deep gray and black. On each side of his helm are to flat spheres that have one yellow circle in the middle while on top them are cylinder like objects with a dull yellow tips to them. Seeming to be made of a thick metal. At the ends of the flat spheres are devices that bring out Thrifts face guard. Their smoothed out lines are slightly rigged as originally the face plate was supposed to be a mask for him. Now, the face mask keeps his lower half of his face covered.
Without the mask covering his lower face, one will notice that his lower jaw is slightly off. Having scars deep in his face plate, scratches, and the like covering that section. Though, this does not effect his speech very much.

His alt form is based around the sports car Pagani Zonda R. Cars, that are built for speed for racing. As light on their wheels like thrift, they do not make much noise when powered. Gliding across the ground like no ones business as this car has two yellow strikes going across the sides, rims of the wheels being yellow while the rest of the car is a onyx black.

PERSONALITY
What he lacks in battle he has in speech. Thrift will think quick on his feet and uses a silver tongue to twist another words into something useful. Wither that means making the other admit a secret or telling one's plans as Thrift will ask questions to hit their mark.
Before the battle, before the fighting. He was more trusting towards others even if they were strangers. He'll give them a little of his trust and keep his personality open for all to read. Being one to try and lighten the mood or tease. Never, intentionally having ill intentions towards anyone with his 'hobby'. Just poke fun to see what would happen. A lot more risk taking then now.
Presently, Thrift is less then willingly to give anyone his trust. That is something he considers needs to be earned, even with that he may not trust you all together. Will be more often then not be quite until someone approaches him. If something doesn't need for him to speak, then he won't. Only a little less daring then before as he'll think about it for a second before jumping in.
Once someone, anyone, knows him more through interactions and such, you'll find him having much of the same wit he has before and makes remarks every now and again. Muttering bits and pieces of his thoughts at rare times as well.

PARAPHERNALIA
Weaponry: Guns that he had built into his arms. The guns appear to be more barrel like in shape and have pieces of what resembles his alt mode form of engines. Having the pieces of metals keep them in place while bellow the guns barrel has a thick tube of a slightly bendable metal that brings up the energy to charge them.
Pair of Daggers that slightly resemble short swords he kept before the war started. Having the sides of the metal have etches of old cybertronian. They are fitted for him to use and easy for him to handle better then the guns. These are the weapons he'll use in close combat as these he's more used to then the guns.
Strengths:Speech, aim, speed ,agility with thinking fast on his feet, and work better alone.
Weaknesses: His armor is pretty weak.
Give him a few hard blows and you'll have cracks opening up on his metal platting.
His quick thinking, slightly, only for that some times with his quick thoughts he gets himself or others further into trouble.
Unable to trust anyone. He'll take orders, but he is unable to keep his guard down at all. Making it difficult for him to work on a mission that requires a partner or team.

HISTORY
Before the war, Thrift was merrily an errands boy. Delivering items from one person to the next. Having the lack of skills to do or be anything else, he took this work with glee. Not minding at all delivering things as he was enjoying the chance of traveling to different places and seeing what items were moving about. Some of which, he did not know of, but when he did and there was a majority of it inside of what he was delivering, he'll take a piece and deliver the rest. Usually keeping said piece as something he would give to someone else who needed it or trading it off for some Energon. Most of which he was delivering for were for the not yet known autobots.
How he became a thief is unknown, even before the war. One can only assume that someone taught him how after noticing his armor was lacking in strength.
When the war began, he tried his best too flee as it was to much for him to process. He did fight the Decepticons, but he also had fought few of the Autobots as they had not heard or known him. Only believing that he was with the Decepticons after hearing what Thrift does then just delivering items to others. During the fight, he was unable to tell either one with the action taking place, either one of the parties did considerable damage to the thief as he looked no more than scrap metal. One side was Autobots and the other was Decepticons, so they took their battle to another area to finish. Leaving him on the ground, sparking every where and leaking fluid.
Only surviving those fatal blows by a medic that was going through the grounds. Finding any bot that was on the medic's side, still having a spark left in them to fix. He is unable to remember who this bot was as once he was up and running again, he quickly took a ship and left the war raging planet before he could fully go offline. He knew when to stay and knew when to flee, and that time he was going to flee as with another hit he would of been no use for either sides. That, and with being so close to being off line, he didn't want that chance to happen again.
How he came to Earth was by passing glance. He didn't know of the planet and was sure that not many others knew about it either or else he would have flown by Earth. Thrift wasn't totally repaired from the fight so he quickly landed the ship onto Earth in a mostly deserted area.
It was during the night when he landed so no one was outside to notice him. That was when he found his alt form, being in one of the windows of a car shop that sold high priced race cars.
Presently, he is on the Autobots side. Having worked with them the longest before, he knows more about them to work with them. But not the whole time. He'll only work with them on some plans and that's about it. However, if they need something stolen, he'll gladly take it.
