OVA: RID

There has been some discussion lately on Discord about Transformers. Those that have seen Saber’s Legion thread will recognize that I’ve statted up some Transformers characters, so I thought it might be useful to put up a Robots in Disguise thread.
Some basic notes: I generally give Transformers Life Support 3 and Vulnerability (Electricity) 2 to represent their mechanical nature, as the sample characters Miho and Karis’ companion Arasuni use those Abilities too.
While Awkward Size is a subjective Weakness, for Transformers I apply a bit of toy logic. If a character is about the size of a car, they would be a deluxe sized figure, and therefore Awkward Size 1. Mega/Voyager sized characters are Awkward Size 2, and Leader class and beyond such as Titans and Combiners are Awkward Size 3.
Some characters use a few new Weaknesses, such as Duplicitous (cheats and liars such as any Starscream or G1 Megatron) and Ambitious (again, Starscream wanting to lead the Decepticons or Megatron’s desire to rule the universe). By the book, they could be the Compulsion Weakness, but I thought the Weaknesses would serve better as additional new Weaknesses.
