Name/Alias: Trinity / Clewt

Age: 18
-Character Info-
Name: Draikade
Age (or human equivalent): Approximately 45 by human standards, though he appears older due to a rough lifestyle.
Gender (or human equivalent): Mech
Species: Military Hardware, Heavy Frontline Model / Cybertronian
Faction: Autobot
Occupation/Specialization: Previously a bodyguard and a gladiator before that. Specialized in tactics and heavy combat games.
Appearance/Altmode: Draik is a Triplechanger. He has a tank mode similar to a German Leopard 2A5 Tank. His Heavy Jetmode looks similar to a SFA-77 Katana.
Being a triplechanger, he is rather large and a little taller than Optimus, but handles his size well. His maroon plating with multiple scuffs and scrapes is a stark contrast of his sapphire optics. His steel grey face has remained relatively unscathed even without ever having a battlemask. He has a rather thick helm and broad shoulders to match. Has a black Autobot symbol engraved on his right shoulder.
Skills include basic hand-to-hand combat. Familiar with many variations of weapons both melee and firearm. He also knows basic first aid repairs.
History: In his early years, Draikade fought in the arena. His Gladiatorial career lasted many centuries before catching the attention of a high ranking government official who hired him to be his personal bodyguard. Having little say in the matter he agreed. Just as the Autobot-Decepticon war began, on a routine business trip, they were over run by Decepticons. During the fight on board, Draikade was knocked unconscious. With his charge kidnapped and him left nearly in stasis lock, floating on a ransacked ship, he now heads towards an unidentified planet.
Personality: Stoic, disciplined, very observant. Very flexible in nature. He has little trouble adjusting to unfamiliar surrounding, new acquaintances, etc. Unknowingly callous to others feelings a lot of the time. He is just not used to nor experienced with dealing with others emotionally. Usually calm by nature but can be violent if provoked. He’s known to be very serious and can’t take a joke. More often than not he just doesn’t get it. Had a habit of headbutting those he disliked when he was a gladiator. He’ll probably still do it should the mood strike.
Likes: Fair fights, weapons, cleaning said weapons, flying and the occasional high grade.
Dislikes: Traitors, cowards, speech givers, and general idiocy. Anything that tries to eat him...
(He once had to fight a 40ft transformer-eating acid plant... Will never look at vegetation the same way again.)
Strengths: Combat skills and experience, Flight capability. His structure was built to withstand a great deal of punishment.
Weaknesses: Slow on foot and has difficultly transforming into tank-mode due to structural defects. Currently a little rusty with his flying skills as he has not had the chance to fly in a very long time.
Special skills: If you asked him if he had any special skills, he'd simply shake his head and say he was as normal as any ex-gladiator gets. No special tricks or abilities, but if you asked anyone who lived see him fight they'd tell you his sheer ability to endure almost anything physical is his trick card. He can put up with a great deal of physical abuse while in the heat of it. However this endurance has the cost of a crash afterwords if he has serious injuries.

Simply there to give an idea, not to represent his actual form. Both modes are still of Cybertronian design. When/if he scans Earth forms, I will make a note of it.
Anything notable that may change this character during Role Play will be added in the Extra Info when needed.
Sample RP:
Draikade felt the pull of gravity as the lift kicked into gear. As the platform moved up, the maroon mech remained still and silent even with those around him occasionally bumping shoulders. The lift stopped with a jerk in front of a heavy metal wall.
The barrier rose, the light that flooded through was blinding. There was no denying it. The rush, the thrill of anticipation could be addicting. However, for this fighter, it had become simply part of the preparation to survive. With only a few bars separating them from the chaos in the arena, the atmosphere thrummed with excitement and terror. The maroon stood among two dozen transformers. To the majority of them, this would be there first and last fight.
The barred gate swung open and without hesitation nor forethought the mech, and those around him, charged forward. In the corner of his vision he saw an energon ax come out of what seemed no where and hack through one of the bots to his left. Not even looking at his target, Draikade swung his sword in that direction and hoped to hit something solid.
“STAY TOGETHER, TIGHT FORMATION!” His shouts are barely heard over the cries of the crowd. Not looking back to see if anyone heeded his words, the mech pressed forward. Knowing this was a timed game, he ran full tilt.
Seeing two foreign gladiators ahead of him, Draikade focused on the left one. Attempting to by pass any defensive stance, he let one leg slide out from under him. Bringing his blade across his chest plating, he aimed for a midriff cut. Even though he felt his blade hit something, he did not turn around to look. Quickly he pulled himself to his full height, swerved and readied for another attack. Not one bit of the carnage that laid around him seemed to effect his performance.
