Profile[]
"The past is the greatest teacher."
Kup is an old veteran warhorse with a thousand tall tales from his ten thousand adventures. Has a motto or word of advice for any situation and he's as brave and loyal as they come. Sees himself as providing valuable experience, though other Autobots aren't always receptive to it. In robot mode, carries an old-style musket laser that shoots short bursts of metal corrosive hydrochloric acid. Range: 5 miles, Speed: 100 mph.
History[]
Kup has done more thing than any other robot.*
*Editor's note: What? Was that mangling of the English language done on purpose? Eesh.
Senility? I don't think I've ever been there.
Notes[]
- Kup is really old, get off his back.
- It's hard to tell if Kup's outlandish stories actually happened, or if they're the product of a lonely old man's overactive imagination.
- In addition to being a storyteller, Kup can be a mean bastich when he wants to be.
- Even though he has a range of only five miles, Kup still seems to get around a lot.
- "This reminds me of the (optional nonsense word) (battle/building/terrain feature/situation) of (greek letter/nonsense word) (number), the (nonsense prefix)(animals) were..." (obligatory interruption)
