Name: First Aid
Where did they come from? [Name the fandom]: Transformers G1
History: He was created on Earth, by Wheeljack, with the rest of the Protectobots, so he’s extremely young by Transformers standards. The Protectobots are a gestalt team and turn into Defensor; First Aid is the left arm.
For a while, the Protectobots resided in their own base in a nearby city, rather than the Ark, but a few decades down the line, after Ratchet’s untimely demise, he moved into Autobot City and took over as CMO.
At some point, Metroplex’s transformation cog was stolen by Swindle, and First aid—emo at not having been able to prevent it—resigned from the Autobots until his brothers coaxed him back to modify the stolen Trypticon cog to work for Metroplex.
A while later, a human girl was injured in a Transformers related accident and First Aid made it so she could walk again, but her family was still sorely displeased with Transformers as a whole, due to Fantastic Racism.
Personality: He’s generally shy and not very talkative, and usually soft spoken. He’s critical of himself much of the time. He’s unendingly patient with nearly everyone. He’s pretty socially awkward. As well, he’s a pacifist. Violence is abhorrent to him, and as far as he’s concerned his job is to take away pain, not cause it. He’ll only use a weapon to defend a patient. He’s very compassionate, and an Autobot, a Decepticon, a human, or a broken toaster would all get the same amount of sympathy from him.
Picture [If the image is large, use a link, please!]:
Actually, this is what he looks like in the comics, but there aren't any decent pictures of him from the show (and they're nearly identical, anyway).
Abilities: He has a double barreled decrystalizer gun, which weakens the structure of something until it’s about as brittle as glass. He turns into an ambulance. He has extensive knowledge of Cybertronian and human anatomy. And he’s a giant robot. And patience to put up with just about anyone, but I’m not sure if that counts.
Weaknesses: He’s an extreme pacifist. You could hold a gun in front of his face and he wouldn’t fight back, unless you threatened a patient. He’s got the self-preservation instinct of a dead chipmunk (which sucks when he has to play field medic). Considering his willingness to help anyone, no matter what side or faction, he could probably be manipulated into some bad situations.
Anything you want to add?: Someone please tell me he won’t be ignored as much as he usually is? Aid being ignored makes me a sad panda.
