Physical Description:
-Vehicle Mode: He is shaped like an egg with a small nose cone at the tip and is shaped like the bat symbol(Batman) with just the outer wings and the head parts. The sides slant upward towards each side for about a height of three feet all around. An yellow colored cockpit is centered at the top in the main section and two one foot long slots are on each side of the cockpit, through which his cassettes can eject through. The back section is flattened out on top and has a circular jet propulsion engine that is three feet long and has a diameter of one and a half feet, which located on the flat portion of the middle tail. Color scheme is mainly dark blue, nose cone is yellow(to match the cockpit shield), and the engine is gray. He is 25 feet long and 8 feet wide at the tail section.
-Transformation: The sides of the main section move up to cover the cockpit and becomes the torso. The tail section folds down to the back and the wings separate and his arms come out of the outer wings. The legs fold out of the main section and his cannon is shot out of the nose cone and attaches to his right arm. Head pops out of the top.
-Robot Mode: His legs are blue with layered boots up to his knees(which look like the ones from the middle sketch from the Jetstorm production sketches on the main page of the AUG under the news) and his legs are cylindrically muscular. His torso is dark blue which is wrapped around his gray cylindrical waist, and there are two vertical slots in his chest, through which his cassettes can eject through. His arms are cylindrically muscular, his hands are chrome and have three fingers with claw like fingertips, and has armbands around his forearms that extend up to his elbows on the outer side and only halfway up to his elbow on the inner side. On each upper arm, on the outer side, is half a wing(of the tail section of his vehicle mode). The engine is attached to his back and the other halves of the tail wings are attached to it. His head is similar to the original Galvatron’s, but only has one yellow optic visor, a chrome mouth plate, a chrome face, and the rest of his head is dark blue.
-Alternate Mode: Looks like a big, blue toaster with the two slots on top.
Strength: 8

Stamina: 8
Intelligence: 8
Firepower: 9
Discipline: 9
Aim: 7
Abilities:
-Hover: He is able to hover as high as fifty feet off the ground due to hover generators on the bottom of his vehicle mode and on the bottom of his feet in robot mode and he uses the engine to boost his speed.
-Engineering: He has the great knowledge of an engineer and can create mechanical wonders.(such as Enhance)
-Command: Since the disappearance of Kangus, Air Rider has stepped up to take somewhat of a leadership role, beside Airplague, and has learned some tricks of the trade.
Weapons:
-Beam Cannons: Air Rider has constructed himself another beam cannon, so now he possesses two, one connected to each forearm. These are identical in appearance to the fusion cannon used by Galvatron, but are deep blue in color. They fire plasmic energy blasts at a rate of 1 shot every 2 seconds. Each blast has medium strength power, able to cause some damage to heavy armors, but the power of each blasts drive his arm backwards.
-Enhance Cannon: When his cassette Enhance fuses with the two beam cannons, it becomes very large and cumbersome to handle. The two cannons lay next to each other, connected by an energy stabalizer while Enhance’s body becomes the body of the cannon. On the back of the cannon, there is an upright handle for Air Rider’s right hand. This handle is protected by a simple hand guard and the trigger is located here. Along the left side, the body is indented at a curve, allowing Air Rider to hold it to his body with ease and comfort. Along the bottom there is a bar grip, where Air Rider holds the cannon up with his left hand. As Enhance fuses with the cannons, it looks as if the cannons are being placed into the slots of a 3-D ‘W’, where it extends to long points on the sides of the cannons and a short point on the top. The cannons are still deep blue, while the rest is black with chrome patches on the sides. The blasts from the cannons are more concentrated than normally and fires two simultaneous shots, which can easily destroy a weak armored, and there is a thirty second interval between blasts.
Equipment:
-I.R.T.S.: Internal Repair and Tracking System. Repairs any minor damage done to him and can detect any signature and stick with it.
-Spark Extractor: Not an ordinary spark extractor. He took an average spark extractor and modified it. This one is much larger, able to hold two sparks. Also, built into it is a detonation system, which is linked to Air Rider through a closed radio channel. The detonation system is powerful enough to destroy the the extractor and the spark itself. It was built specifically for Megatron.
-Closed Comm Link: A closed comm link, unhackable by anyone, directed to each of his casettes, allowing for misc. info. to be passed secretly. It has a range of a kilometer radius, so two kilometers between each at max.
-Hover/Flight Generator: He has modified his hover generators so that they can now enable him to fly in both space and atmospheric conditions at any height.
-Tools: Various hand held and power tools that he keeps in his pocket of sub-space to aid in his engineering.
Personality: Since his "birth" by Megatron, Air Rider has been on both sides of the fence, his ideals and values changing every time. But he is finally clear. After hearing Crazyhorse’s dying words, he reevaluated himself. He is still himself, but his methods have changed. Since the disappearance of Kangus and Wraith, he was trying to hold the Brotherhood of Steel together, trying to act like a leader, but discovered that it works best as what it is, a brotherhood. The feelings he possessed for Megatron are still there, but he no longer desires to destroy the tyrant, rather he wants him to watch helplessly as his Loyalists crumble before the Brotherhood and the restoration of Cybertron as it should be, a self-ruling society. He harbors no personal vendettas against any of the Loyalists, only the fact that they follow Megatron is why he fights them. The Angels have shown their true side and became a thorn in his side that he desires to rid himself of. One thing is for certain though. He will make them pay for the damage they did to Darkmount. He does, however, respect the position that they take, and has the most respect for Ashe, as he has spent time with him and has seen the good side of him.
He has a great deal of respect for the entire Brotherhood. He sees Airplague as the unsung hero of the group, as Air Rider feels he possesses the greatest abilities of them all, but he has yet to fully harness them. In his opinion, Runic is a great fighter, but tends to be a bit brash in certain situations, but he knows he can trust his life with him. While he barely knows Octanok, he gladly fights alongside the giant. He keeps an optic on him though, because he is new to the Brotherhood and he is still shady to him. Bigwheel, the one he has been around the longest and the one he trusts the most. Although the disappearance of Kangus has disheartened Bigwheel some, Air Rider tries to fill that void of being his "big brother". Finally, the cassettes. To him they are very dependable, but tend to be a bit lazy when not given a job.
Overall, he is a warrior with pacifistic goals. His goal is to turn Cybertron not into a perfect society, but a self-maintaining society that depends on itself to survive, not a power-hoarding tyrant. While he may possess pacifistic goals, he is not one. He is gladly willing to fight those who oppose the Brotherhood and that threaten himself and his comrades, and he does not believe in fairness in battle. If one has an advantage over the enemy, he should exploit it or suffer the consequences.
History:Air Rider was created after the betrayal of Tankor. Soon after though, he defected from Megatron and joined the ranks of the Brotherhood of Steel as an original member. He fought many battles against the Maximals while under the guise of being a Megatronian loyalist. Then came the Apocalypse Storm. He was one of the few that went down and destroyed the Oracle, which stopped the storm. Unfortunately, Air Rider and Chainlink went into a form of stasis lock. During their "slumber", Megatron retrieved their bodies and warped their sparks, also giving them new bodies. They awoke, Chainlink still the same, but Air Rider was no more, he was now Vector. He was given a new triple changer body, a mode of a tape deck, and his cassettes Surveillance, Crosswire, Wildspark, Oblivion, and the newly changed Enhance. With that, Vector became one of Megatron’s loyalist soldiers, fighting for him against the Decepticons, Unicron, and the Brotherhood.
Later, aboard the Destronger, Vector ran into Chainlink, who proceeded to use the spark warper given to him by Kahngus and Wraith. When he removed the spark warper, he was still Vector and began to attack Chainlink, but he escaped. He then went a mission with Lightspeed and her cassettes. While down on Cybertron, he departed the others to attend to other matters. He then boarded a shuttle and headed towards Unicron. He then confronted Kahngus and the other Brotherhood members alone and revealed his true colors as Air Rider and rejoined the Brotherhood of Steel.

Abilities:
-Hacking: His skills with cracking computer systems and files are matched by no other on Cybertron. He was the Most Wanted hacker on Cybertron before the takeover by Megatron. He tests his skills whenever he can, whether it be the real thing or on a practice system.
-Computer Science: Has begun creating computer system based equipment to aid the Brotherhood in their campaign against Megatron and the Loyalists. Recently, he created the prototypical wireless data cracker.
Weapons:
-Blaster: A simple, standard issue blaster, colored black. Is semi-automatic and is capable of damaging medium strength armors.
Equipment:
-Tools: These are small tools, such as screwdrivers, lock picks, and wire cutters, that allow him to complete his tasks quickly and more easily. These are kept in his forearm compartments.
-Data Crackers: Has only created two of these, and used one, which proved successful. The data crackers are cylindrical in shape with a small antennae protruding from the top and an extremely small syringe-like implement protruding from the bottom. He began construction of these after the discovery of files on nano-mite technology in Kangus’ personal files. When inserted into a data jack, a small number of nano-mites are injected into the computer system. These nano-mites invade the system and give control, to Crosswire. The downside is that the nano-mites have a lifespan of only fifteen cycles after injection before they break down into nothing. Afterwards, there is a five cycle period in which the computer system slowly returns to normal operating capacity. These are only a one time use item, so their use is sporadic, used only when necessary.
-Data Jack: Has built a data jack into the back of his head, allowing him to directly link up with Darkmount’s systems, becoming the fortress’ neural net. He oversees all operations and is aware of more than is thought.
Personality: Crosswire is still as cocky as ever, only now he has more power to back his boasting up. He loves his position in the Brotherhood and Darkmount, giving him the ability to do what he does best. After Enhance, he follows orders the best with no argument. Completely loyal not only to Air Rider, but to the entire Brotherhood as well, willing to do anything for anyone. Sees the Loyalists as stuck up *****s, strongly disliking them and anyone that associates with them.
History: Crosswire was created by Megatron when he reformatted Air Rider into Vector and Megatron gave him Crosswire to use, along with Surveillance, Wildspark, and Oblivion.
