TFwiki, Skydive (Predator)
As a Predator, some of the more dangerous and cruel missions are often left to him and his fellow Predators. Skydive plays a large part since he is one of the more experienced combat scientists under Skyquake; leader of the Predators. Skydive is a techie one, yet he still has a love of cruel torture and execution of ones that his team; especially him; don’t like. However, Skydive is not cruel for the sake of being cruel.
Since Skydive's forcing into a Cybertronian mental facility millions of years ago against his will, he knows that pain is an excellent teacher. It either drives one to want to give up and die, or to fight. Skydive used his will to fight against pain to be able to escape the facility he was wrongly placed in. Pain can make you do powerful things. Skydive hates weaklings; especially humans. Skydive also sees the whole Autobot faction as weaklings that need to learn.
Skydive is not an easy one to be confident in. He is cunning, and mischievous. Even his fellow Predators are often wary of his actions and deceitful tendencies. Skydive respects Skyquake however, and Skyquake knows that. Skydive never dares to go against his team. No, that would simply not do. Skydive tries to be careful to stay on THEIR good sides at least. Skydive sees a similar lust in his team’s optics. The longing to bring dread to their opposers. He loves that. Skydive is a seemingly good-natured Decepticon however to the ones that don’t know him well, or the untrained eye.
Skydive masks his dreadful personality with his function as a combat scientist. He loves to study the workings of weapons, and build his own. Mostly for his team though. Skydive is also very skilled at operating many types of military equipment, and technology in general.
Abilities: Skydive’s jet mode can reach an average of Mach 2.2+ speed normally. However, increased thrust capacity, and modifications to provide the ability of space travel has made his jet mode capable of traveling up to Mach 3.1+.
His weapons are a relatively standard pistol and one-shot missile launcher. Not much of interest other than the fact that the missile launcher becomes deployable in jet mode. Skydive would prefer to use simpler weapons to their full, creative, and sick potential rather than more powerful ones that kill too quickly.
Skydive is skilled with many combat types. Mostly pointblank range firepower combat.
Weaknesses: Skydive particularly enjoys to see his foes suffer under his feet as they see who their true superior is rather than killing them quickly. This often can be both an advantage and disadvantage for him. Cruel kills can scare others, but they are also more likely to make him a greater target.
