Today's contact build is for the Aerialbot Air Raid . This is unofficial, fan-made content using the Transformers Essence20 rpg by Renegade Games Studios. Please help my friend Owen Stephens with his medical bills from fighting cancer , because American health Care is BULL$#!+ AIR RAID “ If you look first, you may not leap .” Some might call Air Raid reckless, the way he dives out of nowhere, charging enemy units head on. Air Raid would laugh at that. A rash and fearless young warrior who loves surprises (especially those that leave his foes too stunned to fight back), he has only one real goal in life: to have fun. Needless to say his attitude puts him in a lot of danger, but you can be sure he's enjoying himself the whole time Air Raid combines with his fellow Aerialbots to form Superion. His nominal position is as Superion’s left leg. Influences Gestalt Member, Thrillseeker: Gung-ho or rash? Foolish or fearless? It's hard to tell with Air Raid, but it's clear he del

The contact build for today is one of the more controversial characters of the setting, mainly for how he was used to replace one of the most beloved characters of the franchise. Today, we focus on the Autobot Cavalier: Hot Rod . Introduced  in the 1986 film, Hot Rod was created to represent a more youthful character for the viewers to identify with as a focus character in the series. Through his adventures, he would eventually become more  mature and take on greater responsibility, ultimately resulting in his ascension as the newest Prime. While some fans (myself personally) enjoyed this change to the story and leadership, citing an interesting difference between Optimus prime as a wartime Prime, whereas Rodimus served as the new peacetime prime at the end of the Cybertronian Wars, many fan rejected the change of leadership and hated Hot Rod simply for the fact that his actions lead to the demise of their favorite character (Optimus Prime). For this action alone, there was no forgiven

Of all the characters to come out of the 1986 film, one of the  most noteworthy is Blurr. He is superfast and talks at high speed. The voice actor who did those Micro Machines commercials was even cast to do his part, as he was known for speaking both fast and intelligibly (unlike certain Wheelies I could mention). So here is the contact build  for Blurr, the Autobot data courier. As his function places him in Communications, this makes  Blaster his direct superior in the ranks. This article is unofficial, fan-made content using the Transformers Essence20 rpg by Renegade Games Studios. If you enjoy this content, please help support my friend Owen pay for his medical bills from fighting cancer . BLURR " The faster it is, the better I like it ." Blurr is positively and incontrovertibly without possibility of any doubt the fastest-thinking, fastest-talking and fastest-driving data courier and messenger from the planet of Cybertron, and if you or your friend or anybody else you k

Ilsa Vaduva is a controversial character. As her background might me considered off-putting to some, I have posted it here on my blog, rather than on any social media, so only those who are interested in the character will have to read about her. Content Warning : The villain known as Matriarch is one that engages in casual use of sex and sexuality as a weapon. The following background contains mention of drug use, human trafficking, sex trafficking, and child prostitution. If these are subjects that you or your players are not comfortable in engaging with in your campaign, please feel free to discard or modify Ilsa Vaduva, Matriarch, and/or Voluptuary as you see fit. Ilsa Vaduva was born in Romania. As she grew up, it was clear she would be a beautiful woman, and chose to become a fashion model at a young age. When she was 16, Ilsa was cast as a vampire bride in an adaptation of “Vlad the Impaler” that was filming in Romania. Here, the actor Gary Reeves took a liking to the young woma

 As I prepare to once again start running my Transformers: MASK '88 campaign, I am going through my old notes and building Contacts for the characters whom the PCs regularly interact at the Boulder Hill base outside of Jasper, Nevada. The regular NPCs at the base include: Brawn - Autobot munitions expert. He serves as the team's Quartermaster. You can find his Contact Build here . Brainstorm - Autobot scientist. He maintains and operates the base's Cybertronian technology, such as its Land Bridge. Cover Girl - As one of GIJoe's best vehicle engineers, Cover Girl maintains the team's motor pool. She is delighted to operate with new vehicles assimilating the Cybertronian technology, like those found in the MASK garage. Sgt. Stone - Whereas Cover Girl is assigned to maintain the motor pool of MASK, Sgt. Stone is here to maintain the physical bodies of the Joes stationed at Boulder Hill. Plus, I'm a big fan of Brendan Fraser! William Fowler - Just transferred from

 It's been a while since I've managed to get one of these contact builds done. I've been busy with my new art site, several commission projects, and a couple of writing projects. Recently, Ive been able to clear some of those off my plate, so now I can get back to having fun with these contacts! Let's get back to work with the Autobot Recordibot: Steeljaw ! Steeljaw is a character that has undergone several changes and incarnations throughout different Transformers series and continuities. In G1, he was a lion-formed Recordibot who operated with Blaster, as well as an expert tracker.  In the Bayverse films, Steeljaw was a dumb slobbery dog-bot who just served to tell stupid dog jokes: humping legs and peeing and/or slobbering on everything (great work, Michael Bay!) One of the newest incarnations -- from the Robots In Disguise animated series that served as a sequel to TF: Prime -- of Steeljaw was as a Decepticon revolutionary who had a werewolf-like robot form. He was
