''Tell me about it
Hey there, my name is Arctic, but you can call me Arctic. I've been on this planet 14 years, but have been RPing for 1 year. Along with this character, I tend to make the lives of Cutlass, Recoil, Arctic, and Garret Cameron a living hell. Just so you know I found this site by How you Found Us.
''Damn I'm good
Character's Full Name: Phantom
Biological Name: NA
Nicknames: Ghost, Apparition, Tiny, Illusion, and Ninja Cat (his own personal nickname, which nobody else has actually used before)
Age: About 5 centuries younger than the war
PB: NA
Species: Autobot
Side in the war: Autobot
''There is more to them then meets the eye
Personality:
Phantom isn’t the usual Autobot. His small stature makes him perfect for what he loves to do. Spy. He sneaks around, taking even his allies by surprise. Like the many times bigger Bumblebee, he doesn’t speak. Not because he has vocal issues, but because he has taken a vow of silence, which he shall be released from once the war that he participates in has ended. Phantom never thought to make his entire life revolve around the war, not until he hacked into the human’s internet upon his arrival. He now believes that his purpose is to help end this war, even if it takes giving his life to do so. He can be seen as cold and distant, but is actually very friendly, when he finds a way to communicate anyway. Like the feline he scanned to create his pretender shell, he is inquisitive, and is ruthless and clever when he wants to be. He also takes after that species by being opportunistic, and also a deadly hunter.
Likes: Stealth, the older Human Movies/books, Ancient fighting styles, Human’s fighting tournaments, his ally Autobots, and having access to a wide variety of resources.
Dislikes: Being stranded, having to travel under his own power, being chased by Decepticons, getting blown up, and having the Decepticon’s actually notice him.
Fears: Being stepped on, having his cover blown by Decepticons, and becoming a projectile.
Your Greatest Strength:
Sneaking around, Phantom has intensively studied as many martial arts, as many fighting techniques as possible. He has downloaded and examined every movie that encompasses things including wars, and any type of fighting that plays a pivotal role. He tries to add those memory files into any battle he gets in, selecting moves fitting into what he thinks would work best. This, combined with many of his own original moves, can make him a fierce fighter. If the opponent isn’t too big for him to take on in any case.
Your Greatest Weakness:
His size is a major weakness, if it is made less potent by the fact that Phantom uses it to sneak around and hide himself. Any other times, it shows that he is weaker than many other Autobots. Phantom is also at a disadvantage created by his stature because most any Decepticon could just step on him, if only they could catch him. And with giant shells, explosive or not, flying around, and huge robots stomping across locations, not watching where their feet fall, Phantom really has to watch out for anything coming his direction.
''Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing
Family: Normal Creators
History:
Phantom first became ‘conscious’ several centuries after the war really broke out, a while before the conflict escalated so much that the number of robots coming into being really trickled down. It didn’t take too long before the young, miniature robot decided to join the Autobots, partly because he felt the same as them, but also because he realized that even if it was just as a spy, his size could be of use.
Not participating in too many battles, Phantom really just snuck around, disabling any of the machines he was ordered to, or what were in his general way. When it came to reaching Earth, he basically strapped propulsion pods to the outside of an asteroid, and climbed into a hollow, and sent it flying to Earth. When it finished burning up in the atmosphere, Phantom went bouncing across the ground, nothing left of the meteor other than some small chunks, and the first thing he saw was a cat. It had crawled out, and pawed at him a few times while he scanned it, and shot off when he startled it.
Anything Else?:
Weaponry: His tail, which can be disconnected, can change into a sword, a war staff, or a whip. He has two guns, one shoots small arrow head based projectiles, and the second shoots a grappling hook or a harpoon, either one attached to a cord. He also uses Ninja style throwing stars, and for melee he also uses his clawed hands.

Custom Title: The Elusive Ninja Cat
RP Sample:
A white blur ran across the area outside the base. This was a small blur. It was in all appearance, a cat. It slowed down as it reached the fence though. The cat sat back onto his haunches, before the powerful limbs launched it up the height of the fence easily. Phantom landed on it, barely rocking, his tail swaying, his head swinging from side to side as he took in the scene before hopping off and landing onto the ground softly, generating little noise.
Phantom‘s optics flashed once, lighting up a bright blue. Then he sped off, towards the nearest hangar. Running into the open garage, he shot under a table, as fast, if not faster than any organic cat could. He looked like a Red-Point Siamese. He hunkered down, folding his forepaws up under him, as he did with all his paws, keeping his stomach elevated slightly above the ground.
Having actually taken much more difficulty than he could have, Phantom had done that on purpose. It just wouldn‘t have been fun enough, challenging enough, for the self-proclaimed Ninja Cat. He had even taken a vow of silence, explaining why the cat was just sitting there, waiting to see if anyone was actually going to see him.
