Description Drawn on sketch paper, lined and colored in GIMP

Update: Finished shading on Sapphire. I went for a minimalist, TFA cell-shading style rather then the soft shading seen on official TFP character art. Too lazy to shade Whiteflame though XD

-------------------
Current Information
-------------------
>family background
Daughter of Autobot leader Optimus Prime.

>birth place: Iacon, Cybertron

>home: Autobot Outpost Omega, outside Jasper, Nevada

>possessions, make-up, jewelry, etc.
White Fang: A tooth from an organic creature that existed on Cybertron in prehistory. Possibly connected to the Vast White Pokémon, Reshiram.
Ocarina of Light: a musical instrument that formerly resided in Iacon’s Hall of Records, but was given to Sapphire by Head Archivist Alpha Trion. Said to contain a mystical power, it’s mostly used just for fun, although there have been a few times where Sapphire has caused strange events to happen after playing it. Resembles the titular instrument form The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
Rainbow Dash plush doll: A hand-stitched doll of Sapphire’s favorite MLP: FiM character. Made by her human friend Crystal, Dash is often seen being carried around by Sapphire.
Media player: a high tech Cybertronian device that stores music and videos. Has more memory then an IPod and even most computers. Plugs directly into Sapphire’s auditory and visual processors, with a holographic interface.
MLP: FiM toys: Sapphire collects the toys; although she doesn’t really play with them (they are a bit too small).

>weapons
Bow: Her favored ranged weapon. Made of flexible yet strong Cybertronian metals, it is silent and consumes no Energon, and in Sapphire’s servos it’s capable of hitting a target from a mile away.
Dual Energon Swords: Like Optimus, Sapphire possesses a pair of swords that are equipped to her arms. They can slice through wood, steel and even the toughest military-grade composites with ease.
Ion Blasters: Sapphire’s backup ranged weapon. She’s not as good with them as some of the other Autobots are, and usually are only utilized when Sapphire runs out of arrows.

>stats
Strength: 4
Intelligence: 6
Speed: 9
Endurance: 4
Rank: 5
Courage 10
Fireblast: 2
Skill: 9

Alt mode: Blue 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse convertible, with custom paint-job, aftermarket rims and spoiler, and leather seats.

>Pokémon
WhiteFlame: Baby female Reshiram. Egg was found by the Autobots while patrolling a local gorge after a massive thunderstorm. The large egg was contained within a container made of 3 inch-thick steel plating, which in turn housed a highly sophisticated force-field that held the egg in stasis. The egg later hatched while under Sapphire’s care, and WhiteFlame, after mistaking the young Autobot for her mother, was given to her as her starter. Whiteflame is very friendly and playful, often running around the base or engaging other Pokémon in play-fights.
Debut episode: Master and Students

Personality
------------
>likes
Reading, hanging out with friends, Rainbow Dash, flying around, walking, video games, going outside and being with her father.

>dislikes
Decepticons, bullies, rain, sports, country music, being stuck inside, the Twilight Saga and Justin Bieber.

>favorites
TV shows: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, lots of anime from the early 2000s, America’s Funniest Home Videos, and documentaries about animals, Pokémon and the paranormal.
Movies: Star Wars, Disney/Pixar films and general sci-fi and fantasy.
Video games: The Legend of Zelda series, Sonic the Hedgehog series, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Smash Bros Brawl and survival horror games.
Books: Harry Potter, Terry Prachett’s Discworld series, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series, and books about Earth science and history.
Music: late 90s/early 2000s pop, J-pop/J-rock, almost anything currently on the radio, video game scores and Cybertronian music (which is sort of a combination of the electronic and rock genres. Think Eiffel 65 but with a bit of a rock twist.)

>fears
The dark, thunder storms, losing her father.

>goals
Stop the Decepticons from taking over the universe

>hobbies
Reading, playing video games, training Pokémon and exploring.

>occupation
Autobot warrior-in-training. Her duties include scouting, infiltration, and in-air combat.

>favorite food
Energon cookies

>least favorite food
Energon curry

>aptitude
As a child, Sapphire is still learning about her own abilities and strengths, but what has been seen so far shows that she has the potential to become as great a warrior as her father, maybe even better. She still has a lot of training ahead of her, though.

>social and other pressure, problems
Sapphire is expected to become the leader of the Autobots someday, and even though she knows this is far off in the future, she still feels a bit of pressure to act like a potential leader.

>relationships (with who and what kind)
Optimus Prime: Father and Sapphire’s usual partner out in the field. Despite being leader of the Autobots, Optimus always tries to spend time with his daughter. They have a very close bond, and Sapphire often says that she has no clue what she would do without her father.
Arcee: Arcee acts as a sort of big sister to Sapphire, advising her on feminine matters and issues.
Bumblebee: thinks of Sapphire as a friend and is always willing to play with her.
Bulkhead: Bulkhead is protective of her, although Sapphire has shown time and time again that she is more than capable of defending herself, but she appreciates his efforts to help her.
Ratchet: Ratchet is a sourpuss, but he likes Sapphire and watches out for her when Optimus is away.

>beliefs, superstition, moral value
Sapphire has a strong sense of justice, and she truly believes in her father’s motto: Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.

>positive characteristics
Sapphire is always willing to help out her friends, and sometimes complete strangers. She is dedicated to the Autobot cause and will even sacrifice herself if it means that it would save someone she loves. She’s kind to Pokémon, animals and those less fortunate then her. Takes orders easily and without question, making Sapphire a wonderful soldier.

>negatives characteristics
Can be stubborn and argumentative at times. Her passion for justice often gets her into dangerous situations, and even Optimus admits that she tends to bite off more than she can chew. She doesn’t like failure and berates herself when things don’t go her way. Due to her young age, Sapphire also tends to show her emotions more than the other Autobots. She can get upset easily and will cry when that happens, like any other kid her age.

>personality
Sapphire is very fun-loving and laid back among her friends, always wanting to play and do something. She can be mischievous and maybe a little annoying, but most kids are like that. She is always mentally preparing for the next battle, however, and is often the first to volunteer for dangerous missions. She’s tough as nails and loves combat, saying that killing Vehicons is a great way to relieve stress. But Sapphire still has a girly, sweet side that sometimes comes out. She can be fussy about her appearance, adores cute things and still likes to snuggle with her father at night. She’s just like any ordinary ten-year-old tomboy, the only difference being that she’s a giant alien robot.

>other
Sapphire is a big fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Her favorite of the Mane 6 is Rainbow Dash, with Fluttershy and Twilight Sparkle tied for second place. She has all the episodes downloaded to her internal hard-drive but still watches the show on television. Surprisingly, Sapphire loves grimdark fan-fics and art, saying that it’s interesting to see the dark side of the characters, and that life isn’t all sunshine and happiness in Equestria. She’s writing a prequel to the infamous Cupcakes story (explaining how Pinkie Pie became a serial killer in the first place), as well as a story about her pony self-insert OC, Sapphire Star.

Abilities
------------
>physical
Sapphire is an excellent flyer and is the only Autobot capable of fighting in the air. Her wings are very sensitive and can detect subtle changes in air pressure, temperature and wind speed, allowing her to make corrections in her flight path. Sapphire can often be seen flying outside the base on nice days, practicing her maneuvers and testing the limits of her flight abilities.

Other than flight, Sapphire has good hand-to-hand combat skills and excellent aim with her bow. Her small size is a bit of a disadvantage against larger Decepticons, but she can get into tight places and dodge slower attacks with ease.

>magical

Not really magical, but Sapphire does possess strong psychic powers. By using the power of her mind she can manipulate objects without touching them and create powerful blasts of energy, as well as limited mind reading and precognition. Her clairvoyance comes at random moments, however, and most of the time Sapphire is unable to act on these visions. As for mind reading, she can only understand the basic meaning of thoughts and not what someone is actually thinking. For example, if Ratchet was thinking about the mating behavior of praying mantises, Sapphire could only determine that he is thinking about bugs and nothing more specific than that. It’s a limited ability, but still useful.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am so glad I finished this! Shading was never my artistic strong point, so the fact that it's at least decent-looking is awesome. GIMP is great.

Anyway, this is TFP Sapphire's new look. I wasn't too happy with her old design, so I gave her a bit of an overhaul.

What I changed:
Chest- the old design's medieval-style bodice looked a little weird to me, so I changed it to look more robotic.
Face- Got rid of the facial markings and her nose, added eyebrows. She looks more like Optimus now.
Body- More mature features, such as slimmer waist and limbs. Also changed the blue panels on her body and added headlights under her top.
Skirt- Changed to an open-front design with a sash in front.
Wheels- Moved to the back of her legs.
Colors- lots of blue and red, like before, but the pink is replaced by a green-ish blue.

I know it's kinda unrealistic that Sapphire's first Pokemon is a freaking Legendary, but Whiteflame is a baby Reshiram. She's not as strong as a full grown Reshiram yet, having just hatched, and is about as powerful as any other starter. She's based off of my own well-love Reshiram from Black, and I plan on adding more of my Pokemon to the story (Once I get off my butt and start writing! XD )

Please tell me how my first digital drawing looks! I welcome compliments and constructive criticism!
