Rattrap

Page history last edited by Blue 1 yr ago

Rattrap (fuzzyrat) is played by Blue. He comes from the series Beast Wars Transformers. His specialties include spying, infiltrating, surveillance, demolitions, theiving, looting, good stealth, and acute senses. Rattrap is known to give nicknames to others no matter who they are. He listens to jazz music, likes eating garbage, cheese, and gambling. He appeared on DramaDramaDuck in October of 2007.

Personality

He just can't stay away from those serving bots. XD *cough*

He's snarky, sarcastic, a freeloader, and results to sneaky fighting. He's just not one for fighting right there on the front lines. He's the little scurrying animal behind the lines cleverly finding a way to outsmart you when you've got your back turned. Other times he'll find ways to make things explode with his demolition expertise. If all else fails and it will keep his tail intact anyway, he'll use his trusted fusion rifle to attack. Mostly cares about keeping his own spark online and will do what it takes to keep it that way. Even abandoning or selling you out. Although most of the time once he knows it's safe, he'll come back for you. He's pessimistic and not afraid to tell it like it is only because he's seen a lot of action in his day.

If you really want it summed up: Rattrap is a thieving, spying smart ass, but he gets the job done...just not in the most cleanest or proper sense.

Canon History

Originally Rattrap signed up for an exploration mission under the command of Optimus Primal of the Maximals. Things changed and apparently Murphy's law decided to kick Rattrap's butt another direction for fun. Rattrap and the Maximal crew of Optimus, Cheetor, and Rhinox ended up chasing after Megatron and his team of Predacons (no relation to G1 Megatron) who stole an important disc from Cybertron. A chase ensued, some lasers were fired, some time warping was involved, and in the end both parties fell to Earth. Stranded, since the transwarp drive to teleport them back home was fried, both sides had to take on alternative forms like any transformer. Rattrap took the form of a rat in order to survive the planet's high amount of Energon. Currently, he and the other Maximals are now stuck fighting against Megatron and his Predacon lackies. Rattrap is set during season 1 of Beast Wars.

DDD History

Rattrap scurried onto DramaDramaDuck by accident one day probably after snooping around on the ships computers. Although he likes to blame someone for miss wiring the lines. What he found definitely made his gears come to a screeching halt. Different universes, time lines, and apparently was not the first person from Cybertron on there. Found an alternate version of his ancestors Bumblebee and Optimus Prime, and unfortunately Decepticons Blackout and Frenzy. Rattrap discovered via Bumblebee that he wasn't even the first Maximal either. Cheetor beat him to the punch. Always was a fast cat. The kitty was missing in action though so Rattrap figured you snooze you loose. He also met allies of his Autobot ancestors Sam Witwicky and Mikaela Banes.

Still not fully understanding this community that connected worlds, Rattrap was hit with a worst fear virus in which he started hallucinating one of his worst fears. Dinobot, who started out as a Predacon, betrayed the Maximals and went back to being a Predacon. Dinobot had attacked the Maximal base, put its members in stasis lock, and in addition Rattrap could not transform into his robot form. Rattrap decided to sneak in to the Predacon stronghold in hopes to gain some information, and find a way out of the situation. He took advantage of his beast mode and tried cutting a few wires to disrupt power. When he did, it ended his fear virus and made him realize that he was in real time big trouble. While most of the stuff was just hallucinations, he really had wandered to the Predacon's place and managed to barely escape. When the other Maximals found out, Rattrap was scolded (threatened by Dinobot), and eventually the party was attacked by the Predacons retaliating. They managed to chase the Predacons away, and Rattrap immediately worked on upgrading his virus detection programs. Since then he has not had any other viruses to date...for now.

Cheetor eventually came back to DramaDramaDuck and of course Rattrap had to pick on him for finally showing up. Twice now Rattrap and Cheetor were close to going home to their own planet and timeline. The first was an alien probe sent by Cybertron to search for them. They tried to get a signal to reach it, but unfortunately Megatron blasted it to bitty dust pieces. (This was actual canon taken from the episode The Probe). The second time Cheetor managed to get the help of a God named Freyja on DramaDramaduck. She promised to "intervene" in a way that would allow them to go back home. It ended up with the Predacons blowing up their own base and supposedly themselves. Thinking that they had won over the Predacons, Rattrap, Cheetor, and the rest of the gang went to gather parts to restore their transwarp drive. Unfortunately the Predacons did not get destroyed and attacked the Maximals while they were in the midst of taking off. They ended up crashing down to Earth again right back where they started. Rattrap blames Dinbot for messing up their plans. As of now, Rattrap is still trying to find a way home.

Another Beast Wars character showed up on DramaDramaDuck who called himself Silverbolt. He knew Rattrap and Cheetor and claimed to be a Maximal. That threw Rattrap in a loop seeing as he never heard of Silverbolt before. Skeptical at first he figured Silverbolt's chivalry was too much to be a Predacon or enemy. Silverbolt disappeared as quickly as he came. Rattrap came to the conclusion that maybe it was a Cybertronian transmission in search for them, but died out.

Afterwards, Rattrap and his team of Maximals worked on a mechanism in hopes of finding another way home. This required high amounts of unstable energon. While testing it, Rattrap and Cheetor connected to the community and talked to the other Transformer members. Something went wrong and the device exploded in a brilliant flash of energon light. Because they were all connected through DramaDramaDuck the energon sucked Mikaela, animated Bumblebee, and Cheetor in to an unknown world (later revealed as Pride Lands/Lion King), while 07' Bumblebee, Sam, and Blackout were taken somewhere else (later known as Agrabah/Aladdin). Rattrap tried numerous times to contact Cheetor via his comlink and the community. Eventually the lost Transformer members were found and brought back to their rightful worlds.
