Name: Ripraider
Nicknames: Rip, Rippy, A-hole, Shit lord, Shitraider, Pisslord...
Gender: Male/Mech, He/Him
Alt. Mode: A Sharktopus. There was an error when scanning.

Personality:
He comes off rude, snappy and insulting, but in reality just greatly enjoys swearing and being confrontational this makes him seem rude, harsh and "un-Autobot".
He doesn’t try to sugar-coat things, believing it to be detrimental in the long-term, so he’s usually very honest when the situation calls for it, just that due to his constant swearing and generally insulting manner it leads people to think he’s being sarcastic and mean for the sake of it and not helpful. It also means few realise he’s actually rather honest about his feelings.

He hangs out with the Dinobots a lot as his confrontational attitude meshes well with their aggression, but he's a sniper and often finds himself getting beaten by them in physical fights but he's gradually strengthening, or at the very least learning to dodge better.
He's aware people avoid him and dislike his attitude but refuses to change stating that anyone who can put up with him at his worst deserves him at his best.

Notes/Extra:

• Has a phobia of insects and as such is terrified of Insecticons.
• Taught the Dinobots a few curse words but they’ve been scolded often enough to stop using them.
• Is the guy who absolutely slipped his friend a note saying "Make sure my gravestone has really tiny words engraved on it that read 'piss off you nosy bastard'"
• Tries to push Widget into not being such a coward all the time. The results are mixed.
• Icebreaker seems to be Ripraiders truest and best friend and are usually seen together. Rip doesn’t mind listening to IB ramble and will often go out of his way to keep him safe. Sometimes people think Ripraider is a bad/mean friend to IB but he’s usually just trying to push him into ‘get out there’ more.
• He actually hates sea life.
• Almost impossible for him to get through a sentence without cursing, he loves it too much.
• Salty tasting things and ener-wine disgust him.
• His four optics make his eyesight excellent probably why he’s a sniper.
• When he realised the words rhymed he began to call Optimus the "Fuck Truck", not to his face though. Never. He’s actually a little nervous about his reaction if he ever heard it.
• Calls Guiltaur “Fuck Truck Jr” to his face though.
• He likes to scurry about on land in his alt mode however, as he enjoys scaring people like that.
