I actually FINALLY drew a Tranformers original character in the Animated style.
Anyway, this here is my character Sterling, the Autobot.
Overall, this took about 2 days no joke.... but that's only because I was busy with other things

I'm sorry, I'm just a bit happy about this...
Damn proud too!

Bio:
To start off, Sterling is not your typical femme. In fact, her personality often betrays her gender programming as she acts more like a mech. Tomboyish, Sterling is often seen hanging around other Autobots, however her naturally shy and timid nature forebode her from engaging in any friendly, or social contact. She will talk to those who talk to her, but will not start conversations on her own.
Originally a student of Universal histories and sciences, Sterling’s studies were cut short when the wars started, and although her mind is full of much information about her people’s history and science, much of this information is hidden in her silent demeanor, and proves roughly useless. With a mind like a sponge, Sterling’s ability to grasp hold of situations; good and bad, allow her to be an intimidating problem solver, and her vast intelligence often betrays her young age. Full of an eagerness to learn, Sterling’s time is mostly spent with her optics honed on a book of some kind, or scouring any digital data source mapping and storing any and all information she can find, though her main interests are all things strange and bizarre. Many call her a walking encyclopedia of useless information, however this joke does not detour her from her passion for learning and scientific exploration.

When the wars began, Sterling’s attention was temporarily taken from manuscripts and books to learning the ways of the ‘Saber Sword’. This skill is taught to a spare few who are concentrated enough to learn its secrets, and is not an easy task. The individual must be full of determination and have ability to focus solely on learning the way of blade. Saber Swords are often called ‘blades of stone’ as they are heavy, and hard to wield in unsteady hands, but Sterling was able to learn the ways of the blade quickly enough to where she is now one of the most skilled Transformer with the Saber Swords still online up to date.

Inquisitive by nature, Sterling is always up for a challenge and is more comfortable solving riddles, problems, and ancient cipher codes, but her skills are not limited to just the strange. She can hack almost any data base, and so her assets are valuable to her fellow Autobots, but once again, due to her often ‘reclusive’ nature not many know of her skill with bending technological boundaries.
Some would classify her as a regular ‘nerd’, and though to some extent this would be true, although when her true colors come alight, it’s painfully obvious ‘nerd’ and ‘geek’ are far from what words could describe her. She’s smart, but she’s not without charisma. She can be quite charming to those who know her well enough, and though it’s dry and often scattered, her sense of humor is pretty good.

With the art of the ‘Saber Sword’ Sterling learned a tad bit of martial arts, and though she’s not technically a cyber ninja, any opponent shouldn’t ever mark her minor training, for she can deal out a fair fight in hand to hand combat without hesitation or second thought.
Her medical training is minimal, and while she can do minor surgical or medical procedures, she’s not trained well enough to be designated as an official medical officer. Her training in medicinal science came once again from text books, which she read and memorized in her spare time, however with most of her other knowledge these skills to go unnoticed unless she acts upon impulse.

Personal quote: “If life were a book, its chapters would be endless, but I would never stop reading.”
