Banshee

Profile
''Quote: “Ich schreie. Du stirbst” - 'I scream. You die.'''

Banshee is an aggressive, slightly xenophobic Decepticon. Banshee is lways ready with a sharp salute and smile for her beloved Leader and respected superior officers. In alternate mode, she transforms into a WW2-Era Junkers Ju-87 "Stuka" divebomber capable of delivering precise airstrikes with a terrifying siren scream.

Heavily armed and relatively slow-moving, Banshee's attacks are devastating against ground targets, but she does not fare well in a dogfight and is a mediocre hand to hand combatant. Her eagerness to attack can leave her outnumbered when allies retreat.

History
Just after being stamped out in a Decepticon factory as Generic Seeker #1146709, the Decepticon who would become Banshee was sent to Earth in an attempt to locate Megatron, once it waas discovered he still lived. She was amongst the only survivors of a failed mission to rescue Megatron and his cohorts after the Ark's distress signal was detected. As their vessel crashed (for the Space Bridge wasn't up yet), her stasis tube was shaken free and lodged itself into the ground somewhere in Germany.

Rescued an unknown amount of time later by Windshear, mere weeks before her tube ran out of power, Banshee studied Earth's history for a few days, to learn about the world that was next to be conquered by the Empire. The extended time in stasis must have done something to her processor because, finding details of the Third Reich, Banshee decided she liked their style and attitude - though some of their policies were rather... primitive - and decided to emulate certain parts of their style, modelling her robot mode to appear authoritarian and crisp, while taking the Ju-87 Stuka as her alternate form. It was then that she changed her name to Banshee, because of the wailing "Jericho Trompete" siren fitted to the Nazi dive-bomber.

Logs
2032

Windy City Rampage - Banshee is happily watching Rampage smash up Chicago while she plays with the clouds and listens to some opera. Jazz and Skydive have other ideas, so Banshee gets... unconventional, striking the Autobot flier in mid-air with one of her BOMBS!
