#halfways

fullbody ref for Halfways

he's a half-constructed Decepticon MTO. Through a combination of terrible manufacturing practices and an Autobot attack, he and his "twin", Deadweight, had the upper and lower halves of their bodies switched.

Leaving them kind of awkward looking and very incapable of transforming.

Halfways is especially structurally unstable, falling apart a lot and having to put himself together. The tubes on his body help keep him intact

He's just an average guy who's only friend is trying to get him into his sparkeater cult. He doesn't know whether to join or not

kalis (they/them) is sort of an accessory character to halfways rn as I have no idea what to do with them, and they're siblings!

they originally transformed into a jet, and halfways has their lower half -

(Halfways and Kalis were both MTOs who had their upper and lower halves switched)

Kalis' original name is Deadweight.

At their creation they were very close siblings, but differing opinions on the ongoing war (Deadweight becoming a loyal Decepticon, and Halfways hating how twisted the Decepticons were becoming) made them split ways and not reunite until maybe a few million years later.

I wanted Kalis to be a DJD member (Kalis being a city name), and eventually hunt their own brother down! If Halfways dies in the fight, Kalis sustains serious damage to their optics and takes Halfways' visor to cover it

But I think Kalis could just be a regular assassin/hitman :o
