--------------------------------------------
APPEARANCE
Knockout is a bit on the small side for a ’Con, his appearance mostly modeled after the sleek design of his alt mode: a vehicle rather than the usually-preferred plane. He stands, at full height in Cybertronian form at sixteen feet. This form carries multiple features acquired from his choice of vehicle mode, his chassis composed of sweeping and sleek metal, with a color scheme of three colors--- red, white, and, more subtle than the other two, yellow. His shoulders are formed by the red armor, extending outward on either side and sweeping downward toward his arms with three extending ornaments, and are also adorned with two wheels that are erected on his back. Both of Knockout’s arms sport the car doors of his alt mode, but are otherwise of even proportion to his body. His chest thins around his lower torso, and then flaring out again for his hips and lower legs with more red armor. His upper arms, legs, and abdomen are plain silver, unprotected by armor but nevertheless a part of his general makeup.
The Decepticon’s Chief Medical Officer’s face is white, and one of his most prized topographies. His faceplate’s composition is highly angular, each smaller feature sharp and defined. He has a sharp chin, adorned with a red strip of shaped metal that almost resembles a thin goatee, triangular, red eyes, and two white ornaments that almost resemble long ears on each side of his crown. His head is covered in a helm that matches the red color of his armor, adorned with multiple thin spires: one located in the middle of his helm extending vertically upward, and two that swoop evenly to the back of his head. This helm extends down on the side of either cheek, almost to his chin. His visage usually has a smug grin, to go along with his never-ending lines of sass.

The Decepticon doctor’s alt mode is different than the usual choice, as it has no wings, but wheels. The alt mode almost resembles that of an Aston Martin, the car itself being fourteen feet long, four feet high, and weighing in at about two and a half tons. The color scheme is again red, white, with subtle yellows. The base color is red, with the white marking both sides in a design that breaks into an almost pinstripe-like design, before fading above the back tires, with multiple outlines and the rims of the wheels brandishing the yellow shades. It is equipped with tinted windows, two seats, and multiple other functions of a car, with a few added Cybertronian aspects. All in all this sleek and flashy design proves to definitely fit the Cybertronian behind the wheel.

PERSONALITY
Knockout is a narcissistic character, caring mostly for himself and above all his appearance. He is obsessed with his looks, vanity being his main focus in life, and values, above anything else, his beauty. He would rather run from a fight than pick ones, because doing so endangers his finish. He’s afraid of getting scratched, and can spend hours buffing, rather than focusing on his actual duties. However, despite the fact that he doesn’t like to fight, if he doesn’t have a choice or is certain he can win, he doesn’t hesitate to show his impressive battle prowess. An impressive fighter, he is adept at multiple melee weapons, and is a rather good shot when he wants to be.
Not only is he vain, but this Decepticon is one of the few actual Decepticon doctors. He’s surprisingly intelligent, and is erudite when it comes to the knowledge of Cybertronian biology. At times, he actually uses this for good, though honestly he has no true compassion or care for his patients, rather destructive when he knows he can get away with it. He finds it far more fun to tear them apart than to put them back together again. Knockout is even a little bit of a scientist, even though he’s not the best. When not focusing on medical aspects, he dabbles in science, though it’s hardly more than an occupational hobby. The Decepticon doctor’s intelligence is often used when he has to fight, looking for a way to indirectly or underhandedly attack his opponents, liking to attack from behind with a good sucker punch if he can get away with it. Knockout also has a passion for drag racing, often roaming around, until he comes across a good opportunity.
Knockout, though obviously a coward for the sake of his finish, has quite the gall. Never once stopping his never-ending word-after-word of sass and arrogant sarcasm when he can get away with it, he always has something clever and equally degrading to add to a conversation. He can also be a little manipulative, goading his opponents and even his rivals into doing things he wants them to, often using slung insults to his advantage.

PARAPHERNALIA
Weaponry: Knockout has multiple weapons at his disposal, most of them being melee rather than cannons. Compared to the rest of his artillery, Knockout has one canon compared to the other three weapons. The Decepticon Doctor possesses double saws, and a drill on his right hand. These are obviously tools supposed to be used for his rank, yet he has no problem with using them against enemies, either. Along with these, Knockout also possesses a spear with an electric prod that can be activated at one or both ends, which, when used at the right points, is highly effective when dealing damage.
Strengths: Knockout is an adept driver. His abilities “behind the wheel” are better than that of a professional driver. After years and years of war, his skills when it comes to combat are impressive, gained and honed through experience. The Decepticon doctor has an adept knowledge of Cybertronian biology, therefore he knows where it hurts most, and the best places to go for to cause pain while in battle, as well as how to stop the pain for patients he’s actually fixing. Knockout possesses an impressive intelligence to boot, skillfully learning how to take different routes in battle to avoid possible cosmetic and physical damage.
Weaknesses: Despite the fact that he’s been in battle again and again, he’s not completely untouchable. A good hit from an energon cannon or another weapon can take him out just the same as any other Cybertronian. Knockout is also rather arrogant, often thinking he is above others, to him being both smarter and better looking, which can often lead him into trouble, especially when his sarcastic sass is tallied in.

HISTORY
Knockout started out long before the war as a slave. He worked for one of the more prominent Cybertronians, hidden away somewhere in the vast population of Kaon. He did a range of tasks, all of which were forced labor, though most were mainly simple. Even in early development, he had signs of an intelligence greater than even that of his master, though was powerless to do anything about it. He was smaller, and certainly not stronger, with no means of fighting him off, should he have tried.
So it was there that he remained--- by his master’s side, following any order. He wasn’t the only one enslaved; many of his friends and even some of the working and construction class members were held as slaves. The young Cybertronian was already aware of his dashing good looks, and arrogantly felt above the others--- even as a slave, often degrading the others and then managing to talk his way out of it through words and flirting. Another Cybertronian noble took notice of his intelligence, and bought him from his first master, and began to teach him his trade as a doctor. Though this new and challenging practice wasn’t the only thing that he showed him.
This new master often took him to see the gladiators in the pits of Kaon, where they watched for sport Cybertronians pitted against one another. It was an amusement that Knockout didn’t particularly enjoy--- to be honest, he would have felt much better looking at himself back at home--- though there was one gladiator in particular that caught his interest. This one spoke out against the inequality and corruption in their society, demanding a change. Knockout found himself intrigued.
When he was done with his duties and studies (as well as the long hours of preening) he would often find himself looking in to this new rising faction every chance he got--- which only appeared to be growing stronger. And before he knew it, he wanted to join them, but his current master was opposed to his interests, and began to refuse his teachings and threatened him daily. Therefore, Knockout seemed to begin lessening his interest. When his master was satisfied, he started up the lessons again, pressing the “lesser” Cybertronian through to gain his doctorate.
It was then that Knockout made his move, revealing his true colors. After murdering his Master, he escaped and joined the Decepticon ranks as a lowly medic, and using his looks, skills, and intelligence to his advantage, before long became the chief medical officer, though only for his personal gain. After eons of battle and watching Cybertron grow dark, Knockout joined the main Decepticon ranks on Earth, proud to be on what he considered the winning team.
