Profile: Feint requires little more than a partner willing to lug him around in battle and point him at the enemy to be happy. That's not to say he's dim witted or lacks drive, he just really loves sniping. Nothing makes him happier than a first shot, head shot, or kill. What makes him the perfect Decepticon is that he has no morals whatsoever.
He doesn't pretend to care about such noble causes as helping his fellow Cybertronians. He doesn't care about order and peace. What he loves is watching panic through his scope and knowing he caused it. Watching his enemy desperately scramble to find his position and hope they don't fall victim to his aim.
He's a master at distraction, covering his position by throwing off his shots to appear to come from another direction, thus sending any targets not yet hit into a completely different direction.
He really prefers a symbiotic relationship and tends to cultivate a working relationship rather than allowing any old Decepticon handle him as he is very vulnerable in his alt form and lacks trust in people he doesn't know. The benefits of a close working relationship is that he and his partner work with fluidity and trust in each other's abilities. He realizes he is a weapon first, and his shooter is the one who has the talent, though anyone can fire him, he just takes more control in that case, though he seriously hates it.
Before the war, he served as police sniper rifle, having been a rifle from the very beginning. This wasn't by choice, as his personalty never lent to law and order, he prefers chaos. However, his alt form didn't leave much room for other employment opportunities so he was forced into police work as he was viewed as little more than a tool to be used by others, rather than a separate sentient entity. The usual Functionalist reasoning, you know.
As the war broke out, he was more than happy to abandon his life and join the Decepticons where he could really use his strengths and abilities and not be hampered by regulations and moral codes.
His record with the Decepticons, however, gets a bit tumultuous at times. He tends to exact revenge when he feels slighted or wrong, with no qualms about killing the person he feels wronged him. However, it's never enough to get him executed for his actions, and his skill as a sniper has kept him in the Decepticon ranks, though usually sent to cryo-stasis until his skills are requested as he tends to be a bit too loose of a cannon otherwise.
Abilities: Though he really can't aim himself, he can fine tune adjustments and track targets for his partner . He also prefers to have someone else pull the trigger, though he can fire himself, he feels intuition is far more important and he feels he's not as intuitive as others. He feels most comfortable with tracking the next target and letting his shooter aim and fire, with him making minor adjustments for wind, trajectory, etc, or feinting a shot if requested.
With his technical mindset, calculating how to feint a shot is second nature. Missing a target but bouncing a bullet off something to change its trajectory to give the illusion the bullet came from another direction. He also can be quite distracting in hand to hand combat using his abilities to feint in hand to hand as well.
He is capable of modifying his size (mass displacement) to fit almost any Cybertronian, his max size in alt form is just under 15 feet, but he can adjust his size to comfortably fit a mech down to the size of a cassetticon.
In robot mode he carries 2 daggers, two katanas, 2 other daggers, and a hand and a half broadsword. Surprisingly, he has no ballistic weapons in robot mode.
However, he moves quietly as needed to by as sniper. His colors are dark gray, blending him with most old Cybertronian city-scapes. He's lithe and sleek, giving the impression (and backing it up) of quickness.
He uses two types of bullets, standard sniper rounds and specialist rounds. His standard sniper rounds are armor piercing titanium cased cobalt. The specialist shells used for ricocheting and feinting shots are acid tipped, liquid nitrogen, mercury, and incendiary.
Weaknesses: Lack of mobility. On his own he can not move in his alt form, or pick up speed by switching to an alt form. He must be very exacting and incapacitate, at least, his targets. His trust issues make him reluctant to work with others he is unfamiliar with, but if ordered, he grudgingly will.
