Goth

“ The dead can't lie. ”

GOTH is a charismatic scientist who, with a simple smile and a pat on the shoulder, can hide the fact he has more than a few screws loose. He originally joined the Decepticons for his own selfish means, mainly the resources and the ability to progress his own research. However, it is now more to him, as it was a place for him for when he had nowhere else to go.

In his bat mode, Goth possesses brute strength his robot-mode lacks, in both skills and physical strength. He also possesses a scouter that allows him to calculate weaknesses of a target that he can pass to his teammates, as well as coordinates to help their aim. His cloaking abilities to help him blend in to help his teammates from the shadows, and he has enhanced senses in both sight, hearing, and smell. In his root mode Goth retains his enhanced senses, cloaking, and parts of his scouting system, but loses his strength and is instead optimized to do more dexterous medical work.

Goth is fragile, a glass cannon as it were, and his frame is HEAVILY susceptible to fire, which can melt his armor clean off. Being an air-unit also means he's susceptible to lightning. In his root-mode he has few weapons and is very vulnerable. He is also cursed with horrible bad luck.


History

Goth2

Canonical/Pre-MUX/Theme History:

Goth of Chela is old, very old, and dates to the start of the Cybertronian war. Originally forged on a planet inhabited by only beastformers, he had a lover and a group of friends who were eventually killed. This drove him to an obsessive revenge-filled madness that eventually led him to being exiled from his planet for his crimes. He came to Cybertron and fell in line with Megatron.

Goth ended up using his medical and Scientific knowledge to earn himself as being seen as an asset, despite his constant show of weakness out on the battlefield. (He was not built nor trained for War after all) and used that to keep himself from being left for dead on the field.

Goth has no larger goal, mostly to live, and gain back what he lost.

MUX History:

Goth returned to Cybertron in 2019.

Goth eventually left the Decepticons after reuniting with Khamsin, but continued to work with the Destrons, who seem to have adopted him.

However, in 2022, with the Destron re-joining the Decepticons, Goth is left on his own once more.

Dinobot2AI

When Deathsaurus, Goth, and Rustclaw visited Eukaris in 2024, they are greeted by Chill, Dinobot, and Silverbolt.

In 2025, Goth witnessed Chela emerge from his mountain lair to attack invading Decepticons.

OOC Notes

Saeed-ramez-bat-final2

Goth's alt-mode is heavily based on a Fruit Bat, Grey-headed flying fox in particular, but with more monstrous aspects inspired from the picture on the right, and heavily taking from Vampire tropes and mythology, allowing for his alt-mode to be capable of walking on all fours, his hind legs to standing up straight(ish) and climbing walls.

His elongated Index claws also taking inspiration from Thrax, (Yes that Thrax...). He is also a true Energon Vampire, based on the information from bots like Blood, Bomb-Burst, Nightstrike, and Wingcode, the last two providing more a base for his creation then the first two.

His affinity for Acid and chemical-based weapons, and drones is based off the fact, his original incarnation (While also a mad scientist) is a Necromancer and emulates necrotic damage.

Deathsaurus
November 19 - Deathsaurus Medical Report
>>!!ONLY VIEWABLE TO RANKS MAJOR GENERAL (8) AND UP!!<<
>>Goth appears on screen looking exhausted, and is /completely/ covered in energon and other Cybertronian internal fluids, looking none too happy, the repair bay looks to be full of injured.<<
Sergeant Goth, reporting in from medical to give a full report on Deathsaurus's medical condition... Some months back, He'd become ill, overheating, eating scrap metal, fuel deficient, nutritional loss from his frame suffering from where resources were being drained from his body... Initial scans did not pick up what it was right away other then sort of /mass/ embed in his spark chamber's casing with a what looked to be a spark signature, but the machines could not decipher what it was.
Initially it was believed to be a growth, or a parasite, unfortunately due to it not being nearly large enough, and being embedded in such a...Precarious, and delicate area, it could not be surgically removed like what was wanted.. We unfortunately had to wait for it to grow before we could safely dislodge it...
As months passed the symptoms worsened, and unforntally other parties became privy, interpreting it as /something else/ which made it rather hard to pinpoint what it actually was because they couldn't keep their /noses/ out of it like proper soldiers /not/ of the medical profession, mineral rich energon was transfused to him in this time to help his systems compensate to keep him from completely becoming malnourished, and it grew to the point were Death, was a suspected outcome if we didn't extract it soon.
Unfortunately, before such could be done the schedule sieging of Iacon happened, were it ripped itself from his spark chamber and his chassis as a whole, to reveal itself to be some sort of.. Brainformer I believe he said? a Micromaster, the autobot Star Saber... Sometime before it was speculated this could of been possible, but it was brushed off due to... The Idiocy mentioned before.
While his spark has shrunk considerably due to the damage done, it should recover with time, he is currently stable, and on life support, his frame however can't be salvaged, it's beyond repair, numbers of internals are missing, fuel lines and spinal struts are completely destroyed or shattered...With Megatron's permission and granting of resources, I and a team, will be building a new frame to transfer his spark, and innermost energon too from schematics made by Scalpel... And should they be incomplete, I will be doing as well.... With that, this is my report.
--Sergeant Goth

                   Encryption Information Communications.

To: Those Keyed into the Encryption

Security Level: High Encryption of 8

Subject: The Maximo Situation 

"Right then, don't think we can continue to dance around the subject anymore, and rip the proverbial Band-Aid off, and break the damn, as it where." 

        >>Goth crosses his arms, he's in bat-mode and looking like he's just woken up, the cup of kaff by him doesn't help, look to be in his lab.. Oh the Space bridge behind him is active and running.<< 

"It would appear we've got an issue with Megatron or Pilus as he is so now called, having submitted to Maximo's will, which I have confirmed thanks to last nights little.. battle of ships."  

        >>Goth rolls his optics and cringes as his hand that's in the air curls in on itself.<< 

 "We all also seem to have.. bits and pieces of data we're unable to share of speak of due to how we don't know whom will be willing to throw a monkey wrench into our efforts, so, I've gone and created this encryption, to allow those whom have its keys, to view posts like this, and a select few to distribute such to those we know won't exactly sell us out...

"So, let me not be a hypocrite and be the first to share what Information I have, Mind both us Cybertronians and Earthlings can access this as it is not us alone in trouble." 

        >>:: Attached is a File of Data, Sound files, and photos, and paragraph scripts he's collected about Maximo and his troops, combat analysis of Scourge fighting the ship and Battalion. 

        >>:: Attached is a File of Data provided by Swivel with readings of Radiation, thermals, air pressure, sub and ultra soundwaves, the fact that ship is called a 'Planet Scrubber' 

        >>:: Attached is a file form Interrogator on what Information that's been passed to him thanks to NAM and his own findings. 

>>Goth then takes a stress filled, almost painful looking breath.<< 

 "...Alpha Trion, I, Des, and possible Interrogator will be visiting Eukrias soon, thanks to my completion of the space bridge.. I'd like if a Bot where to come along as well as... well.. Things are going to be messy.. more so than normal.. For now that is what I have to share.... Let my trust not be misplaced, been burned quite enough, thank you."
