Neo Dinobot: Abyss 2.0

Original seen here: [link]

Tired of terrible dinobot alt modes (Masterpiece Grimlock, Fall of Cybertron), I decided to start putting my money where my mouth is. First up, Abyss. There's no reason a G1 dinobot can't be more anatomically correct than the rubbish we've been getting from people who know nothing of dinosaurs, and never bothered to even look one up.
She and Swift though are also getting some profile updates, as well.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Name: Abyss
Faction: Autobot
Subgroup: Neo Dinobot
Alt. Mode: Plesiosaur
Function: Deep Sea Exploration/recon
Motto: "Uhmmm...what's a motto?"

Profile:
Abyss has never been accused of being the brightest diode on the circuit board, but she is one of the most loyal friends you could ever make.
Compassionate and caring to a fault, she has been known to capture military submarines, and escort them for great distances if she feels their presence threatens marine life.
Upon arrival of earth, she altered her form to that of a plesiosaur. She views her new role as being similar to the deep space missions she undertook during peacetime. This often has her separated from her team, or other autobots for weeks, if not months at a time. Even still, she's much happier in the oceans of earth, full and teaming with life, than in the desolate depths of space.
She's very caring and over protective of her brother, Swift.

Abilities:
Fuel efficient, Abyss uses less energy than most cybertronians of her size. The back of her beast mode is lined with absorbing materials capable of collecting the heat and light of the sun, and converting it into energy far more efficiently than solar cells. She has extremely dense armor, capable of allowing her to survive in all but Challenger's Deep. As a result, all but the most powerful of decepticon weaponry is but a minor annoyance to her. Sensors line her neck giving her consistant readings of any electrofields, sound waves, pressure and tempuratures around her. Mounted in the forehead of her beast mode is a powerful sonar array capable of giving her information from miles away.
In robot, Abyss is armed with an energy cutlass, and a standard issue sonic pulse rifle. Afterlosing it to a great white, she had her left arm replaced with a titanium harpoon accessible in both modes, capable of firing 1,000 feet.

Weaknesses:
Abyss get's lonely. Being away from anyone for the long stretches that her function requires, leaves her clingy when she returns to her team. She's also taken to talking to herself, just to hear the sound of someone's voice.
Her long recon missions often leaves her vulnerable, with help being unable to reach her, if she gets severely injured.
