Weaponry/Special Abilities:
+Bladed Tonfas: To go along with her expertise in martial arts and melee combat, Gearshift has come to favor cybertanium metal baton-like weapons. These tonfas are used both offensively and defensively, allowing her to make use of blunt weapons and trigger a secondary blade feature along the front half of the main baton. This blade also extends about two feet outward from the tonfa and resembles a serrated straight-edge, allowing her to use a slash/stabbing attack when necessary,
+Naginata/Bo Staff combo: Aside from her tonfas, Gearshift has a secondary weapon combo in the form of a bo staff/spear like weapon. The main way weapon is a staff blade weapon roughly the same length as her body with the scimitar like end included, the blade at the top having a single slightly curved edge. However, the blade can retract into a slot that allows Gearshift to make use of the staff part as a blunt weapon and the single edge occasionally leaving shallower cuts than when it is activated.
+Urayan Energy Gloves:A seemingly simple weapon that starts out resembling Cybertronian styled brass knuckles around her fingers joints and a layered band around her hands. When activated, both of these pieces will shift outward and connect to form a pair of boxer-like gloves with spikes along the back and trigger the small energy disks on the palms of her hands that are a red hue. These disks are energon transfer technology that allows her to connect this to the gloves that saps away and stores energy with each physical touch to energize Gearshift or transfer to another individual.
+Grapple Hook: Located on her right forearm, Gearshift has a firearm like weapon that can fire a grapple hook up to seventy feet that has both a magnetized end and hooks to grip onto places. This serves as a secondary means of getting around or to higher places her Parkour cannot allow.
+Smoke bombs/Flash Grenades: Befitting her cyber ninja status, Gearshift has grenades she uses for cover or distraction located in the four storage compartments on her “utility belt” around her hips. Each side contains six grenades each, totaling to twelve smoke bombs and twelve flash grenades.

Personality: Gearshift is the as flashy and daring as her paint job looks. This young femme is one of those young bloods that is loud and proud, taking great pride in her skills and knowledge to the point of coming off as somewhat arrogant. But, for the most part she is just highly confident and always has her head held high, just taking pride in who she is and what she can do. Most of all, she is rebellious and stubborn, doing what she wants and often going against authority unless she truly respects someone which is not often.
As head strong as she is, Gearshift does have a side that is guarded and cautious. Though she loves to socialize and be a daredevil, she is not so quick to trust but neither is she quick to judge. She is surprisingly analytical and more intelligent than she might appear, having what humans would call a photographic memory and does take time to get a feel for someone or something. Training with the Cyber ninja dojo has taught her to be disciplined and consider all possibilities, but usually she is rather reckless and impatient, so she tends to make split second observations or long enough to know her next course of action. Being the type to be in the moment and thinking up things as she goes along, Gearshift is an odd mix of being calm and out-going to boastfully confident to silent nerd wrapped up in one.
History:
Gearshift was one of the new sparks that emerged from the Well once Optimus dove into the core and released new life. However, her spark was carefully placed within a photonic crystal to be preserved until Cybertron found its footing. But, it wouldn’t be until fifty years into the new peace that followed the defeat of Cyclonus and his group and rounding up of Steeljaw’s Pack that she would finally be brought online.
Forged out of freshly found sentio metallico, Gearshift eventually came to life under the guidance of the new Cyber Ninja Dojo as one of their wards. Unfortunately, as quickly as she came to life her personality also quickly revealed itself in which she would earn a reputation as a trouble maker but dedicated to her studies. Becoming an oddball over the course of the fifty decades of her existence, Gearshift was highly dedicated to her studies and found a natural talent for melee combat and felt right at home with martial arts. Despite this though, Gearshift was just as easily bored and often snuck out of the dojo to attend races or cause petty trouble, most often vandalism and robbery, most of which she was able to evade capture but still was often arrested and dragged back to the dojo.
Furious at her antics that also reflected on her fellow trainees who were all disciplined to make an example what happens if they did something similar, she quickly became the object of fury and ridicule. Having few friends as it was, Gearshift shrugged this off, especially when most of the new bloods also felt uneasy when she began to done a customized version of the Decepticon symbol that bore Elite Guard stripes on the sides. Being a huge fan of history, Gearshift has adopted much of the views of the Decepticons from earlier in the war, feeling they had the right idea once and has shown a great deal of disgust towards the humans among Cybertronian society. Today, it remains to be seen where her path will go as she takes her final tests to become a fully recognized Cyber ninja.
