Description
So, just a WIP of my designs for another TFP OC, Tempest. She's a seeker femme, almost as old as Warzone(but not nearly) who happens to be his girlfriend. She's insanely loyal to the Decepticon cause, because before the war she was a pleasure-bot beside the Gladitorial Arena. She was used to serving Gladiators, and that's how she and Warzone met.

I originally wanted her war scars (her lost leg) to have an effect on her alt-mode, because maybe she lost a wheel and had to become a two-wheeler? But then I decided no, I'll make her a seeker because it fits her personality more, and makes her seem like more of a Decepticon. She lost her leg to a badly timed grenade, but when the Decepticon troops tried to retreat with her in tow, their escape ship was blown to bits and they had to take refuge in a nearby energon mine and wait for backup. There was no medic with them - he probably died - so the others had to quickly replace her leg with almost anything in order to avoid her loss of life. (No, this does not take part on Earth, this is a few thousand years before)

I also don't want it to seem like she and Warzone "just happen" to have been together. She served him many times when he was a gladiator, and when he retired he still came to visit. They had a friendship before the war, and it barely managed to survive the war itself. They ended up together on the ship Victorious when he quit the Wreckers to join the Decepticons, and it was she who vouched for him. They began a relationship that was a little strained due to their difference in rank, but it was all but destroyed when she lost her leg.

She's cold-hearted to others, even if she can act warm and friendly, it's all an act. She uses her looks and skills to weaken those around her, tricking them into trusting her and then she stabs them in the back. She's an infiltrator, not a soldier, but she also has advanced intimacy with Cybertronian anatomy. Her temper is quick to rise and slow to cool, and she has been known to hold a grudge for years, and even centuries. Despite her physical weakness, she is extremely quick and agile, and is capable of outrunning many of her larger enemies - and colleagues.

When the Victorious is heading to Earth after Warzone, she volunteers to go ahead and scout the planet. She ends up near the museum where the Bugatti 100 is being kept (the EAA Airventure Museum), and scanned it for a unique, if highly suspicious, alt-mode. She then searched for Warzone, and warned him of the impending attack. However, she refused to help him any further, and denied any feelings for him. She claims it was to "settle a debt" between them, and flew off to await the arrival of the new Decepticon threat.

So, there you have it. I'm redesigning Warzone at the moment, I was NOT satisfied with the way he ended up looking, and I'm working on the design for Tempest. Hopefully I'll have finished pictures of them soon to put up. I also have to design the rest of the Victorious crew, which shouldn't be too hard herp a derp.

I would like to know what you think of her design(s). Keep in mind I am not using the land-based one (you know, the mostly completed one), but rather the one you can only see a third of. Ha ha. If you have any suggestions, comment, concerns, regarding design, backstory, colouring, personality, etc, please feel free to leave a comment below. I'll try to take everything into consideration (all of nothing, nobody ever coments) when finalizing the designs.
