Profile

"Speed is the key... It doesn't matter how big your gun is if you can't hit me!"

Redshift is an ambitious and arrogant Decepticon. He firmly believes that speed is the key to being a good fighter, and will not hesitate to prove this. Redshift's alternate mode is a spacecraft, capable of speeds well over mach 5, although too small for any large cargo. While in robot mode, his speed is greatly diminished, but he has more weapons availible. Even though his offense is low, with his high speed he's still hard to take down. Redshift loves flight, in robot or spacecraft mode, although as a spaceship he is cabable extremly high speeds in atmospheric and space conditions. He believes that because of his high speed he is superior in combat to most other transformers.

History

Redshift is from the planetiod of Charr. After deciding there are more opportunities and chances of promotionon Earth, and definatly more Autobots to scrap, he found his way to Earth. Now he's on Earth, seeking to move up in the ranks of the Decepticons, and spread a little mayhem along the way.

Notes

New and Improved

• Redshift is arrogant and ambitious, and he can either be a major butt-kisser or a real jackass, depending on whether you have something he needs, or are in a position to further Redshift's own agenda.

• He talks a big talk, which used to land him in trouble a lot. He's a bit more sensible now, less prone to rash decisions.

• Redshift has a something of a love-hate with his brother Blueshift. While he often insults his brother and competes with him, he also has been known to stand up for his weaker sibling on the field of battle. One thing they can definatly agree on, however, is this: Spaceships are cooler than jets!

• Redshift has a long-running feud with the Aerialbots, and just about any other Autobot with an airborne altmode.

• Redshift has been cannoned in the face by Galvatron; He was once transformed into a facsimile of a human; He was briefly the 'herald' of Alpha Q; Once a winner(much to everyone's surprise) of his combat bracket in the Monacus Olympics, in addition to his exceptional speed and skill during the various races.

• Redshift was promoted several times in 2029 in quick succession, attaining the position of Commander of the Decepticon Space Attack Force. The Space Force Decepticon badge can be seen below.

Nobody knows what this is for.

• Redshift is armed with a flamethrower and a plasma rifle in robot mode, while his vehicle mode has unpredictable phosphorous bombs and a deadly ram.
