Profile: Nightweaver dislikes fighting in the daytime. Though perfectly willing to attack the Autobots at any time, he is first and foremost an opportunist, using his position as a scout and guerrilla to strike quickly and unnoticed. He enjoys nothing more than quickly infiltrating the enemy base to destroy equipment and munitions. Where he fails is in retreating after his initial strike, as his heartfelt desire to fight the Autobots outweighs the harsh realities of his average combat abilities. Though he puts up a facade of wanting to rise quickly through the ranks and eventually lead the Decepticon war machine, all he really wants is the acknowledgement and respect of his peers; never easy to obtain when he doesn't join his comrades on the front lines.
Abilities: In jet mode, Nightweaver is capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 2 (1500 MPH) at altitude. He carries 7,000 pounds of fuel, giving him an effective range of 1,740 nautical miles. Though his alt mode can carry bombs and AIM missiles, Nightweaver has reduced his weight capacity for precision strikes with his vehicle's mounted turrets and his rifle. He is capable of briefly cloaking himself, but only while in robot mode, for a duration of approximately 8 nano-kliks, at the cost of dramatically reducing speed, strength, and endurance. This ability requires massive energon output and can only be used once between solar cycle recharges.
Weakness: Nightweaver is brave and quick, but his combat abilities are average at best. Use of his cloak will drastically reduce his combat effectiveness, and it is limited for emergency retreats and special circumstances. His weapons are designed for specific surgical strikes, and are painfully weak when used in direct combat.
Because Nightweaver is slow to retreat from battle, he is quick to get in over his head.
