Profile[]

Although gifted with the ability of flight, what Whirl does can barely be called flying; he careens across the sky spinning and weaving wildly like a maniac. Best described as off-putting and unhinged, he claims his behavior is merely an act to unsettle his enemies but it's just as likely that this is a convenient cover for a much deeper issue. A skilled fighter in both ranged and melee combat, Whirl is reckless and apathetic towards his own safety which makes him as much a danger to himself as he is to others.

History[]

Forced into the Senate's employ after his fighting prowess caught their attention, Whirl was mutilated under the empurata ritual to keep him subservient to their desires. Eventually he received a position in the Rodion police force and was later ordered to kill a particularly outspoken dissident miner. Failing to finish what he started, he was arrested and sent to Garrus-1 for his crime where he was subjected to brutal beatings at the hands of Decepticon sympathizers. Psychologically disturbed by his experiences, Whirl tries to find his way in a world that he can no longer relate to.

Skills[]

Watchmaking, Aerial Combat, Flight Instructor, Faking The Crazy, Not Faking The Crazy.

  • Whirl has a love/hate relationship with Blast Off. Mostly hate. It's complicated.
