Age: 14
Gender: Female
Faction: Techno-Organics
Alt Mode: Human
G.H.O.S.T, Civilian, or Other: Self proclaimed ‘super hero’ but technically a civilian
Residence: Originally Detroit, but later Autobot City
GENERAL INFO
Weapons: The ability to create small energy blasts with her hands, two Master Blades which can transform into Hyperspace Mallets, Azusa Skates, Skyboom Shield and Micron Boosters. She doesn’t use the Micron Boosters as much since her dad made a winged jetpack for her that condenses down into a small backpack.
Holoform: None
Personality: Sari isn't just your average, run of the mill teenager. In fact, she's a teenage robot and she's enjoying that life. She's by no means a push over and will fight back no matter how big the adversary whether it be by means of her newfound powers or by the basic karate she knows. Sari will stand her ground and won't take no for an answer even if she has to fake tears to get what she wants. It always works in her favor, but it does show her immature side which thankfully has settled somewhat since becoming a teenager. Unfortunately she only has her dad's overprotectiveness to blame for her lack of social cues given that she was locked up at home for so long and never really had friends outside of the robot companions that Isaac made for her. In fact, the first time she even met another kid around her age she introduced herself by accidentally blowing bubblegum and gumming up her own hair before promptly trying to put the gum back in her mouth. All she's really had to rely on were TV, movies and the occasional book to help guide her through day to day conversations.
Unfortunately, such quirky deliveries in movies such as 'hold tight, spider monkey' are one of many.
Now that she's a teenager she's picked up on many typical teenager things such as enjoying vampire movies and talking to her 'peeps' despite not having any friends. However, if she did manage to find one she'd be an extremely loyal friend always wanting to be there for her friends. She longs for that partner in crime to do exciting things with, but she also wants to learn more about her Cybertronian ancestry. Sari knows only limited information about the Cybertronian species from her dad when it comes to their war on Cybertron that then continued on Earth. She really wants to meet one just to know how similar they are, but she wants to know where she comes from at the same time. Professor Sumdac will always be her dad, but protoforms don't just come from thin air.
Likes: Getting what she wants, being helpful, stopping crime, vampire movies, the mall, talking to ‘her peeps’, freedom, her dad, harmless pranks
Dislikes: Evil, not being taken seriously, being sheltered, anyone messing with people she cares about, fun killers, not having her phone
PERSONAL INFO
Family: Isaac Sumdac (Father kinda)
Mate: None
History:
The story of Sari begins with a small body like liquid metal. When G.H.O.S.T. originally began experimenting on protoforms, one protoform was smaller than the others among them. Back then a scientist from Detroit was tasked to aid in their experiments: a man by the name of Isaac Sumdac, founder of Sumdac Systems. While the work was oddly specific and unlike anything he had worked with before, he found the idea of working with the younglings of the massive Cybertronians quite fascinating. What he did not expect was what G.H.O.S.T. had in mind for these protoforms and thus he was forced to continue his work as he knew far too much to just simply change his mind and leave.
That all changed the moment his eyes fell on the small protoform. He had seen them before yes, but never so close up. Deciding to touch the protoform, a jolt of electricity shot through his body (and causing some of his hair to lose its color) as the small protoform absorbed some of Isaac’s DNA. The protoform slowly took shape changing into that of a small human child with red hair and dark skin to match Isaac’s, and it was then he knew he had a problem. If G.H.O.S.T. found out what had happened, he didn’t want to know what would happen to the protoform that looked so much like him. He did what he had to do, doing everything he could to not only escape without suspicion but while taking the small protoform with him hidden away in a bag.
Isaac took the protoform with him as he drove back to Detroit, deciding to take her in as his daughter and naming her Sari. He was afraid of Sari ever being found by G.H.O.S.T. so he did everything he could to make sure she remained out of sight. This resulted in Sari living a sheltered life, never really having a friend let alone knowing how to socialize with others aside from her father, her little robot dog he built her and her boring mentor Tutor Bot, yet another of her father’s creations.
As time passed Sari realized that there was something different about her. Not only did she not seem to be aging any after multiple years of trying to measure herself against a doorway only to be the same height every single time, but she felt like she just understood things that seemed abnormal for a child her age. She could easily alter Tutor Bot’s programming to give her a day out of lessons (only after breaking him once or twice), and she could make sense of her father’s work. Everything changed one day when her father was giving a guided tour to a bunch of school children. Sari had snuck out of her living space and made her way down to where her father and the school children were. By the time she’d reached them, one of Sumdac’s experiments being run by one of his many lab techs went haywire resulting in a siege of nanobots absorbing mechanical objects around them.
In a hurry everyone fled Sumdac Systems as the nanobot beast escaped. While it was dealt with eventually, Sari had lightly injured herself during the escape but not terribly. At first she simply brushed it off, but when she noticed that the sleeve of her dress was torn that’s when she noticed it.
Her arm was mechanical.
At first Sari panicked as Isaac did his ‘best’ to try and explain things to her, but in the end it only made Sari angry. She felt that her father had not only lied to her, but that he wasn’t actually her father at all but that she was just another creation of his. Naturally Sari ran away from her father, but he did manage to catch up to her at her favorite burger joint just a matter of hours later. With the offer of a burger, some fries and a shake Sari chose to listen to her father as he explained the whole situation to her that she was just a Cybertronian protoform he found and had absorbed some of his DNA. It seemed so strange, but in the end she forgave her father and returned to Sumdac Tower with him.
By the time she turned thirteen, Sari awoke with a startling revelation. She had climbed out of bed only to realize that the nightgown she had been wearing was missing and instead replaced with strange armor-like clothing. Upon further inspection her red eyes were now an electric blue, and she also looked her own age. Initial shock turned to admiration as the new look quickly grew on her, but it had shocked her father that his daughter somehow looked drastically different. Overtime she started to notice little upgrades as her hands would suddenly transform and she’d accidentally fire small energy blasts causing small explosions, weapons that would appear in hand and little skates built into her feet that would just randomly appear and disappear.
To the average teenager they would probably have panicked, but not Sari. She felt that these strange changes to her body were amazing! She felt like it was the beginning of a superhero story as she would start sneaking out at night to explore Detroit a little more. Several times she encountered the local crooks who had made names for themselves such as the Angry Archer and Professor Princess, but with her new powers she was easily able to put an end to their reign of crime. Eventually the news caught on to Sari and her new superhero persona as she called it, but word travelled quickly and G.H.O.S.T. overheard. Before Sari could realize what was happening, she and her father were suddenly captured one night by G.H.O.S.T. agents and brought back to Witwicky so they could not only study Sari, but deal with the ‘problem’ Isaac Sumdac had caused.
