Knockout

Era is in the early 2000s. Takes place in the landscape of Jasper, Nevada.

Goes by many aliases: Doc Knock, Doctor, The Mad Doctor, Commander Knock Out, Doctor Knock Out, K.O. and The Good Doctor. Male Cybertronian and Decepticon.

Knockout is- essentially- the Decepticon's version of Ratchet. However, rather than being grumpy, Knockout Out is cheeky, sassy, flamboyant, and a bit cocky (bordering on narcissism). He is also quite vain and values his own appearance above everything else, even above the welfare of his patients; he is also shown to not like losing very much. Knockout Out won't hesitate to grovel or even change sides if the situation warrants it. His loyalty to Megatron only went as long as he is in the spot light. Due to his narcissistisc tendensies, he takes pleasure in the envy of others, particulary Starscream and becomes frustrated when he is sidelined.

Knockout is also somewhat cowardly, though his cowardice is mainly due to his concern about protecting his finish

He gets very upset when his paint is scratched or ruined and if someone damages his paintwork, he will gladly do the same to the offender; over the course of the series he has shown to have matured about having his finish ruined. The reason for his somewhat flamboyant nature is because of a glitch in the Allspark the day he was created.

Like most Decepticons, he considers the Insecticons to be an annoyance and find them disgusting and obstructive. He has a definite cruel streak and will gladly perform experiments on living prisoners, as shown when he tortures Silas on his dissection table, stating that he believed his former partner would be amused. Knockout Out considers humans as nothing but bothersome- though he does admit that they do create some 'fine-looking automobiles', as well as enjoyable fiction, such as horror films that he has watched at drive-in-theaters.

He also is fairly polite and seems to enjoy it when others are polite to him. This may indicate he is not truly evil, just a little unhinged, amoral, and self-centered. He may also be a narcissist. As of Predacons Rising he seems to have outgrown some of these traits and is more respectable.

Knockout is a competent scientist, doctor, and surgeon. He successfully performed a t-cog transplant on Starscream and an arm replacement on Megatron. He is equipped with at least one arm-mounted drill and two built in hand buzzsaws.

Knockout is not a good fighter, mainly because he would rather avoid getting involved in fights and messing up his paint job. He usually uses powerful weapons to his advantage, which can also be used against him. He does, however, possess remarkable speed. His concern for his appearance is also one of his flaws.

Giant robot, so many feet taller than a human. Knockout's paint job is bright red in color, with black and white streaks, and very shiny as well. Like most Decepticons, his optics are red but his are unique, having dark red pupils and sclera while his irises are light red. He has 2 white ear-like appendages and a long, pointy crest on top of his head that extends to his face, resembling a nose. Knockout's face is white and has a red dot on his chin. He has 2 blades on each of his shoulders.

Can transform into a normal-sized car.

In vehicle mode, he has the appearance of a bright red European sports car, called an Aston Martin, with the inner part and spokes of his wheels painted a shiny gold color. He also has dark, tinted windows so humans cannot see there is no one driving the car. When he speaks, his vouce goes through the sleek radio as it shows wave lengths of his voice. When in vehicle form, the car appears vacant with no driver inside. Though vacant, he has full control of the car inside as it is still his anatomy he is in control of.

When he is out and about, he bkends in with humans through his vehicle form. He does not make himself known often unless it is important to kidnapping or attacking or fighting the autobots.

Knockout has pointy ear-like audio sensors. Knockout's flamboyant traits are simply eccentricities that were caused from a glitch in the Allspark the day he was brought online . Before he became an Autobot, he was one of the few Decepticons without an insignia. He still doesn't have one after changing sides. Unlike most Decepticons, he loves human culture to the point of admitting wouldn't mind living on Earth. The wheels on his back sometimes rotate when he is startled or scared. He finds human "interfacing" repulsive. According to himself, it's really hard to replace his vehicle mode's parts.

Knockout sometimes uses foreign words of European language, such as German and French; this suits him well, due to his chosen vehicle mode being a European sports car.
