Bio:
Flash of white can best describe Streamchaser. She is very agile and quick taking much after
her father like that in many was. Her post on Earth lasted longer than her sister Starcon though and for that she is a bit
bitter that she could not join the others on Cybertron. One might actually say she is jealous of the friends and training
the elder sibling has had. Young and bright Streamchaser is fast to pick up on pranks and jokes making her not much fun to
play with.
Finding out later that Starcon was upset she didn’t get to meet her sibling before she was transferred
to Cybertron eased the tension between the two just enough they can be found together most of the time, but Streamchaser wants
to make her own friends rather than join Starcon’s
Notes:
Taking Mixmaster’s
class was a blessing in disguise, Streamchaser loves to mix things up and see what happens later. This means that the class
has been destroyed several times already.
Description:
Jets run in her family seeing that
both of her parents are from seeker descent. Streamchaser has a lot of grays and whites but does take on the common f-15 alt.
Special abilities:
Able to easily find a jet stream and glide though it Streamchaser has
been able to use little to no Energon while in flight. The same cannot be said for others copying her movements it is unclear
just what gives her this ability at this time.
Weaknesses:
Light and agile don’t
always mean out of danger her armor is easily bent at time and can be painfully removed if pulled hard enough.
More
will come as she progresses.
