Explanation of the conversion: I made up a bit of history for Stinkbomb based on the events of the Beast Wars
television series.
History: Stinkbomb was one of the protoforms from the Maximal ship called the Axelon commanded by
Optimus Primal, which chased the Predacon
criminal Megatron II through transwarp space after the theft of the Golden Disc. The
Maximals and Predacons crashed on prehistoric Earth, where high energon levels threatened to destroy the crew unless they
adopted organic alternate modes (Beast Wars Part 1).
The Axelon's cargo of Maximal protoforms in stasis pods had been launched into orbit
before the crash, but eventually Stinkbomb's pod fell to Earth. Stinkbomb emerged in the form of a transmetal skunk.
A strategic specialist, Stinkbomb is fascinated with the study of Predaconial psychology. She understands the power-driven
Predacon mindset and delights in manipulating it to Maximal advantage. Once taunted for her unpleasant odor, Stinkbomb's
sharp wit, cunning tactics and dangerous intelligence quickly earned him the respect of her colleagues. She is regarded by
Maximal leaders as a valued advisor and fierce warrior.
Trivia: The toy of Stinkbomb is similar to that of Gas Skunk, a Predacon. There is a chinese made knockoff of
Stinkbomb which is colored slightly differently called Badger-Bot.
Powers: Stinkbomb is highly energy efficient, smart and brave. She relies on serrated tail for close range combat. Photon emitters in his optical sensors project hypnotic
light spectrum capable of lulling his enemies. Her foul chemical spray causes temporary paralysis and a nasty odor remains
for weeks unless his victim bathes in tomato juice. She can assume the form of a transmetal skunk.
She recovers from damage quicker in beast mode and is better protected from high energon levels as well.
Weaknesses: Stinkbomb has a distinctive bad smell, making him easy to track. It would be hard for Stinkbomb
to sneak up on someone down wind of his position. Stinkbomb only has average firepower. High energon fields can
adversely effect Stinkbomb if she stays in robot form for too long. His animal form is protected from high energon levels.
