T.N.T. I'm Dynamite

"Who're you to complain about being 'old'? I'm fifteen million years old; I have that right."
"Rusts, rusts and more damn rusts. Where;s a Pay n' Spray when you need one?"
"This cane aint just for looks; keep talking and I'll hit you with it."
.T.N.T. And I'll win the fight.
Name: Jetfire
Age: Somewhere around 15 million.
Race: Decepticon-turned Autobot
Side: Good
T.N.T. I'm a power-load
History: Jetfire is one of the oldest Decepticons to date. While he sided up with them at the beginning of the war, Jetfire quickly realized the 'cons weren't fighting for what he'd thought at first, and sided over with the Autobots.
But not before the Fallen sent the Seekers out to scour the universe for the tomb of the Primes. Jetfire did as he was told and went to Earth, then disappeared from the universe for the remainder of the years between the event and the coming of the Autobots to Earth.
Around that time, Jetfire resurfaced as an SR71-Blackbird jet, as he arrived during the cold war-era of Earth. He then lay dormant in the Smithsonian until the Autobots arrived. Their energy signatures roused him, and he approached Prime.
Unfortunately, Prime didn't know Jetfire had switched sides, and was attacked. Jetfire beat Optimus and his crew somehow, and managed to get his story to them, and he was officially accepted as an Autobot.
Jetfire now spends his time exploring Earth, and seeing what there is to be seen, whilst combatting the Decepticons when the pop up, as well.
Likes: Fighting, Ranting, Autobots, destroying Decepticons, eliminating rusts.
Dislikes: Rusting, Decepticons, Wheelie, the Fallen, his bad hip.
Fears: Rusting, being shown up, getting killed by a misfired shot.
Weapons: Axe (in cane), rocket launcher, second missile launcher (also in cane)
T.N.T. Watch me Explode
Sample RP:
An SR71-Blackbird jet soared through the air silently, almost undetectably, but was picked up by the radar of the military base below as a Decepticon, unknown to the jet.
From below, a blast hit him in the undercarriage, and he plummeted, but not before transforming into robot mode first. He managed to catch himself before hitting the ground with his jet engines, landing and putting his left side's weight onto his cane.
The jet's name was Jetfire, and he was one of the legendary Seekers, sent by the Fallen to learn the location of the Tomb of the Primes. However, no one seemed to know he switched sides.
"What's the idea here, attacking an old 'bot off his guard like that?" Jetfire asked angrily "I thought those damn Blackbird jets were supposed to be stealthy; I didn't know they'd get me shot in the back by some young, trigger-happy bot."
Jetfire didn't have time to finish his rant, as the leader of the group opened fire with an ion blaster, catching Jetfire on his shoulder and wing.
"Agh! All right then, you want to fight, then you've got one! Now you'll see what this old 'bot can do!" Jetfire shouted, raising his cane and blasting a missile into the bot's chest, and blowing him back.
Jetfire pulled down his combat mask as the other bots charged him, and he dispatched each of them with well-aimed hits with his cane, aimed for the spot just beneath their heads and effectively paralysing them for a few minutes.
"There; now that you're down, maybe you'll be able to listen to me. My name's Jetfire, and I switched over..." Jetfire started his story. After a while, the other bots seemed to understand, and the bot who'd attacked him first extended his hand.
"Jetfire, we welcome you to the Autobots. I am Optimus Prime, their leader." The bot said as Jetfire shook his hand
"Never thought I'd meet a prime that wasn't dead. It's an honor to meet you, then. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got some unfinished business to do before I can join you fully." Jetfire admitted, transforming, but not taking off yet.
"I'll be sure to point out any Decepticons I find while I'm busy. Farewell, Autobots!" Jetfire finished, and took off, heading for parts unknown to him.
