''Tell me about it”
Hey there, my name is Jetta Windstar, but you can call me Jetta, Kit, Kitt-chan, Kiki, or whatever else. I've been on this planet 20 years, but have been RPing for about 6 years. Along with this character, I tend to make the lives of KITT, KARR, Ravage, Ironhide, Mudflap, Sam Witwicky, Lt.Col. Cira Knight and Freelancer Tex a living hell. Just so you know I found this site by Arcee.
''Damn I'm good”
Character's Full Name: Lieutenant Colonel Cira J. Knight
Biological Name: Cira Landers
Nicknames:
Age: 36
PB: Angelina Jolie
Species: human
Side in the war: Good
''There is more to them than meets the eye”
Personality: Cira is a trigger-happy tomboy and a woman who is confident in her abilities and knowledge. She demands respect from others regardless if they are in the military or not. Even though she demands a lot of respect, she also gives plenty of it to humans and bots alike. Cira is upfront, honest, self-reliant, temperamental but fairly conscientious, tough, strong-willed, incredibly determined and spontaneous, kind, and a natural leader. Cira’s voice is sound and almost defiant. Her temper is randomized and quite explosive depending on the severity of the situation (she got extremely pissed when Ravage was angry and destroyed her A10-not good for either of them).
Additionally, Cira has a heavy command voice that can easily shake anyone who needs to listen up. Even in times of uncertainty or anxiety, Cira seems to know how to get it together and make valid decisions on a timely fashion. Cira partially has a nurturing side to her leadership style depending on the situation. She’s the type of leader that will change her style depending on the situation at hand. Sometimes she is a bit slow to adjust if the change is needed, but regaining control of the situation is usually little trouble for her (whether or not extra force has to be used).
Likes: Alex, Autobots, cars, A10’s, helicopters, Parkour (also likes free running), food, fighting/martial arts, running, music and playing the piano, independence, shiny things, guns, knives, movies
Dislikes: jerks/ass holes, unneeded suffering, hot/sunny days, ignorance/people who don't know how to use common sense, unoriginality
Fears: The Decepticons, getting killed, (sometimes) that her efforts don’t add up to much in the case of the war.
Your Greatest Strength: Cira’s greatest strength falls under her leadership/communication abilities and her open mindset, along with her almost unbeatable skill in Parkour. She uses all these strengths to the maximum, especially when on the battle field or communicating with the bots. Cira uses Parkour as an advantage whether or not she is a battle situation. She uses it to show others she will try her hardest to be there for them no matter WHAT is in the way.
Your Greatest Weakness: Sometimes, Cira can be either too forgiving or too unforgiving depending on the situation, which can add to her temper OR result in a lack of ‘better punishment’. That all depends on the situation, her mood, and the persons/beings being dealt with. Additionally, once people see how open minded/non judge-mental she is, they may like to take advantage of this as well, and sometimes she may not readily see this, all though most of the time she’s alert enough to catch it before it gets bad unless she’s having a bad day. However, the latter is seldom an issue.
''Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing”
Family: Alex Knight (husband), Michael Knight (step dad), Devon Miles (he's like a grandpa), Bonnie, April (step aunts), KITT (he's like...uh...an older brother! ), her real parents are disowned, and her deceased aunt, Stephanie Landers.
*By blood: her parents (disowned) and her aunt (deceased because of KARR).
*By adoption: Devon Miles (co-owner of FLAG) (he’s like an uncle to her (now deceased due to age), Michael Knight (step father), Bonnie and April (don’t know their last names, but they’re like step-mothers to her)
History:
Cira is your average teenage girl, one that has thus far had a successful high school right on time at the age of 18, grew up with an average family, in an average house, with an average view on life---okay, most of that is not true. Cira is actually an orphan, persay--she lived with only her aunt. Her mother and father were alcohol addicts and disowned her at an early age when they could not afford to raise her. Cira has a very small family, and the few relatives that are still alive are too old or deceased to take care of her- thus this left only her and her aunt, who is on her mother's side of the family.
When she was 8, Cira got in a car accident with her aunt caused by a "mysterious" vehicle; a black and white Pontiac TransAm, t-top, with a yellow scanner that shoved them into a "wall" of a 4 lane highway they were driving on. Unable to avoid/shake off the violent vehicle, her aunt's vehicle was shoved against the wall and tumbled to the side of the highway. Her aunt was killed and Cira's leg was severely broken, along with receiving other scars on leg and left side-though most of them are very faint and well healed now. The leg was completely healed-more of this will be explained in detail in her history and RP sample. After the police investigated the accident, two people from a secret organization known as FLAG came to see the survivor once she was safe in the hospital. Michael Knight, a lead detective/hero of FLAG drove to the scene with his vehicular partner, a super intelligent, advanced microprocessor known as the Knight Industries Two Thousand. KITT looks similar to the killer, same body type and capabilities, only KITT is pure good, and has a completely black form with a red scanner.
Later, the vehicle that actually killed her would become her partner, at the age of 16. Once little Cira recovered from her ordeal at the hospital, KITT properly introduced himself after she talked to Michael Knight, and she gained his trust quickly. Being an orphan, Devon Miles, leader of FLAG, had more than enough money to support Cira, and since Michael Knight was still fairly young, and he had other people at FLAG to help raise Cira properly, Cira was adopted, and lived in their mansion after the accident from that point forward. When Cira was able to drive, she became KARR's new driver. KARR was once "KITT's evil twin, the Knight Automotive Roving Robot." KARR had one error in his system-the issue of self preservation versus protecting human life.
Devon, boss of FLAG and Bonnie, the top mechanic and technician, designed a program which they hoped would permanently re-program KARR, into something almost identical to KITT, but with a slightly different voice. However, the program glitched and never fully installed. A couple years later, KARR betrayed Cira (right around the time she graduated high school) and literally ran off into hiding, waiting for a chance to destroy KITT, Michael's long time partner. FLAG temporarily shut down as Michael knight and Bonnie retired, while a man named Dr.Graiman took over and revamped KITT after getting the grants and permission to do so, later changing KITTs name to the Knight Industries THREE Thousand-practically becoming a unique type of Autobot thanks to Dr.Graiman's genious upgrades with his transformation systems. A couple years passed while working with the new group at FLAG (the group in the new series). KITT joined the Autobots to experience some freedom, continue his mission to preserve/protect human life and also to track down KARR.
Cira graduated high school and joined NEST a couple years later, being recruited by Lennox to support NEST. After completing a few years as a sergeant she quickly promoted to the warrant officer ranks to fly A10’s as air to ground support for the Autobots.
History updates: Cira has been married to Alex Jonson, (hence the J. in her initials) since 2012ish. Along with being a highly educated A10 pilot, she’s taken sometime expanding her general knowledge through college internet courses and has also started to gain 100’s of hours in various helicopters and mechanics.
Anything Else?: Cira is Corina’s sensei. She taught Corina Kenpo karate and parkour, and also taught Matt Stevens a lot of Parkour.

RP Sample:
In early september in the late afternoon, a very cloudy afternoon, some locals were out hiking Flat Top mountain. However, they did not expect a Decepticon from the lower 48 to visit such an Alaskan attraction. It was actually a cloudy day for Alaska, it being approaching fall and whatnot. Today happened to be a rainy day too, but KARR figured it would be fun to go to Alaska in low ceilings and visibility just because the surroundings were even better in his opinion.
In his black and white cobra helicopter form, the attack helicopter suddenly whooshed in from the North, scaring the current hikers at the top of the mountain. There is no snow on the flat peak. It's top isn't completely flat but in some areas it's smooth enough for a helicopter to land, even though they're not supposed to. Of course, KARR doesn't give a damn.
Few people were out with the ceiling so low to the mountain. The ceiling was low enough there were scattered and broken clouds around the mountain a thousand or so feet below and then a fairly thick, firm ceiling an additional 500 above his form. Of course, KARR had the latest navigational technology and displays, so moving around peaks and adjusting to changes in elevation was no problem whatsoever. It also helped being scan in infrared.
KARR hovered on the mountain, shooting at a pair of women trying to leave the slope from his rocket launchers as he settled in. No one had any weapons, helpless as usual. He circled the rims, climbing or descending only a few feet at a time where it sloped a bit.
"Hm, I think I'll hang here a while." The bright yellow scanner paced in and out at the Cobra helicopters nose as he scanned the mountain.
