Airazor TFP

Modèle:Cybertronian
Modèle:Disambig2

**Airazor** is a Decepticon-aligned Mini-Con and partner to Fracture and Divebomb.

## History

### *Transformers: Robots in Disguise*

In Hunting Season, Airazor and Divebomb accompanied Fracture to Earth with the aim of collecting the bounty on Bumblebee, but immediately ran into Drift. The pair tangled with Drift's Mini-Cons, with Airazor finding himself roped by Jetstorm. After Bumblebee's team joined the fight, the three Decepticons retreated to their ship where they spied on the Autobots using micro-drones. They talked about terminating Drift and taking the bounty themselves, which made them all laugh evilly. After abducting several of the Autobots and a human, Fracture went to try and capture Bumblebee and the two Mini-Cons again tangled with Jetstorm and Slipstream. They managed to capture Fixit and Russell Clay, however Drift's Mini-Cons took control of Fracture's ship, and the three Decepticons were forced to retreat from the scrapyard.

In Sideways, after Fracture had joined Steeljaw's team, Airazor and Divebomb took part in a battle against the Autobots, attacking Strongarm until she managed to get cuffs on them both. Fortunately for them, Steeljaw later freed everyone and they all retreated back to their hideout.

In Lockout, Fracture deployed his Mini-Cons to monitor the Autobots command systems when Steeljaw's pack took over the scrapyard. They were attacked by Drift's Mini-Cons and fought them. When the Autobots took control again, Divebomb and Airazor escaped with Steeljaw to go back to Fracture as the Decepticons escaped the scrapyard to go back to their hideout.

In Battlegrounds, Part 1, Fracture's Mini-Cons had set up a trap for Strongarm to fall for and get incapacitated. The Mini-Cons carried her back to the hideout where Steeljaw was impressed by his team. Fracture was tasked by Steeljaw to go to the scrapyard and free the other prisoners. When they tricked Russell into opening the gate with Divebomb disguised as a hologram of Hank, they used him as a way of getting inside until Fixit shot near them, allowing Russell to break free. As they made their way to get the humans and Fixit, they were attacked and incapacitated by an upgraded Optimus Prime, who came from the Realm of the Primes.

In Battlegrounds, Part 2, they were placed in stasis pods with the rest of Steeljaw's gang, minus Steeljaw.

**Oak Men** — Appears in Claimed by Shadow

## About

A large party of shaggy things with a horrible stench emerged from the trees. A couple of very odd-looking beings came forward that looked like two gruesome trees had uprooted themselves and decided to go for a walk. One was four feet tall and four feet wide, the other was taller by about a foot.

* hair was the color of lichen—a bright flaming red despite the dirt that caked it
* eyes and teeth were dung yellow
* gnarled and pitted skin like old bark, the color of the loamy forest floor
* oak leaf loin cloth was his only covering
* enormous belly

**Taller one**:

* five feet, thinner than his partner
* filthy gray hair like Spanish moss hung down to his knees
* Stringy muscles, impossibly long arms
* greenish gray skin
* body resembled a cragged tree trunk, with knobby extensions
* long strings of dirty gray moss and ferns sprouted directly from his flesh
* breath like a ripe compost heap
* both had a horrible stench

### 2. Claimed by Shadow

When Radella gave the order to seize them, a large party of shaggy things burst out of the trees. Marlowe says they're Dark Fey—Giants and oak men. Two of them tried to rape Cassie in the enchanted forest in Faerie. The tall one threw the fat one against a tree, the branches trapped him like a cage then fell on Cassie intending to rape her. She eventually was able to cast the Dagaz rune going back two minutes. She was able to stop her own rape, by the fat Oak Man this time, by pressing the rowan charm against his forehead—but could not save Mac. The pixie, Radella, appeared and slapped the fat Oak Man with the flat of her sword—sent him sailing into the forest and hit the ground hard.

Portia

**Portia** — Appears in Touch the Dark

## About

Portia is one of those ghosts who relive the tragic parts of their lives over and over. She's a fixated haunter something like an obsessive human who wants to wash her hands fifty times a day. And she's mobile, so she will can follow Cassie around and run on about whatever is bothering her. She likes to play games with the tour horses, by possessing them and causing chaos.

On the day that Cassie was running for her life from Tony's thugs, Portia, Portia decided to be talkative. Cassie told her she needed a lookout, and Cassie immediately regretted it.

### Physical Description

* Pretty southern belle with swinging hoop skirts
* Blue eyes
* dainty gloved hands

### Other Details

* A lot of people in the supernatural community don't believe in ghosts.
* Portia's intervention with the vampire hit squad had been a fluke—Cassie did not want the Senate to know—most ghosts are too weak to do what Portia's friends had managed. The Senate would not believe and could view her as a threat to eliminate.

## Associated Characters, Places, etc.

* Cassandra Palmer
* Tomas
* Captain Beauregard Lewis - Ghost

### 1. Touch the Dark

Portia came to the rescue while Cassie was being attacked by five of Tony's vampires. She brought along Captain Beauregard Lewis and his calvary. Portia managed to trip a vamp with her parasol, then ordered the Ghost-troops to get the vamp. Several thousand troops converged on the same point, falling into the vamp like water disappearing down a drain. The vamp started ricocheting off shelves, his skin turned a mottled purple. He frozen like a statue. Each ghost was freezing a tiny bit of the vamp. I had just begun to wonder what would happen when all those spirits tried to escape from his now unyielding flesh when the explosion came—and Cassie that I ended up covered in icy bits of vampire flesh. Portia old Billy Joe what happened to Cassie.

Mac transferred her to Cassie by holding a shiny gold charm in the shape of a cat to her elbow. It hid under shirt, roamed around with prickly claws, settled down at the base of her spine and went to sleep. In the desert, after Mac and John disappeared after casting a Rune and returned twenty minutes later, Cassie was so freaked out, she hit him on his chest. His eagle pecked her hand viciously. That woke **Sheba**—she scratched a long, deep cut along Mac's forearm.

When Cassie leapt into the tattoo parlor that flew into the Senate Chamber, the Consul grabbed her leg and Sheba ran down her body and launched herself off her foot and the Consul let go—The shop took off without Sheba..

### 1. Touch the Dark

Apparently, there had been a plan in place to use the Tears of Apollo on Cassie. After Cassie's vision of Louis-Cesare and Francoise, Rafe became angry with Lous assuming he used the Tears on Cassie. But he had not—he didn't have them there. The vision came from a mere touch. Billy Joe fetches the vial for Cassie. She and Mircea use them to go back to 17th century Carcassonne to rescue Radu and save Louis-Cesare from getting killed by Rasputin.

## Author Notes

"First, there’s the issue of the Tears of Apollo, the concoction that showed up in Touch the Dark, but which Cassie didn’t need because of who she was. But the Senate assumed she would need it, because most untrained initiates wouldn’t have been able to manipulate the power at all without help, much less do what she did. Basically, it’s a potion that greatly increases a person’s stamina and, concurrently, their magical ability. Cassie hasn’t been using it because she hasn’t needed it. But it is still there." — Author ~ Cassie Palmer | Karen Chance's Ramblings

**Ride the Storm** — book #8 of the Cassandra Palmer series by Karen Chance.

## Brief Synopsis

Ever since being appointed pythia, the chief seer of the supernatural world, Cassie Palmer has been playing catch up. Catch up on the training she missed being raised by a psychotic vampire instead of at the pythian court. Catch up on the dangerous world of supernatural politics. Catch up to the powerful, and sometimes seductive, forces trying to mold her to their will. It’s been a trial by fire that has left her more than a little burned.

But now she realizes that all that was the just the warm up.

Ancient forces that once terrorized the world are trying to return, and Cassie is the only one who can stop them. But to win she needs help: of a friend lost in time, of a secretive lover, of every supernatural group that has ignored her up until now. And with the vampires and fey preparing to wage war across two worlds, Cassie’s time is running out ... ~ Goodreads | Ride the Storm (Cassandra Palmer, #8)

Cassandra (original)

**Cassandra (original)**

## About

**Cassandra** was a Seer in Greek mythology. The lover of Apollo.

According to Jonathan the Dark Mage: Cassandra pretended to love Apollo, long enough to gain the gift of foreknowledge; then she ran away. Apollo found her, cursed her—she could keep the gift, but would see only tragic events, and no one would believe her until it was too late.

According to Mircea Basarab: The mythical Cassandra was the only Seer who steadfastly refused to be under the control of anyone. She ran from even Apollo himself to avoid having another dictate how her gift should be used.

### Other Details

* **Cassandra** is the Circle's term for a fallen Sybil, one who uses her power for ill instead of good.

## Wikipedia

Cassandra was the daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba and the fraternal twin sister of Helenus and a princess of Troy. A common version of her story is that Apollo gave her the power of prophecy in order to seduce her, but when she refused, he spat into her mouth cursing her never to be believed. In an alternative version, she fell asleep in a temple, and snakes licked (or whispered in) her ears so that she was able to hear the future. Cassandra is a figure of both epic tradition and of tragedy.

Cosplay à la gamescom

À la Gamescom 2015 nous ne pouvions pas rater l'occasion de couvrir le cosplay. Cette année, le nombre de cosplayers était encore plus impressionnant que l'année dernière, et une immense salle avec de nombreux coins photo joliment décorés leur était réservée. Armés de nos appareils photo, nous avons immortalisé les plus beaux costumes de cette édition.

Cosplay Gamescom 1.jpgCosplay Gamescom 27.jpgCosplay Gamescom 24.jpgCosplay Gamescom 5.jpgCosplay Gamescom 6.jpgCosplay Gamescom 7.jpgCosplay Gamescom 10.jpgCosplay Gamescom 26.jpgCosplay Gamescom 9.jpg
Si la Gamescom est un salon du jeu vidéo, les influences des cosplayers ne se limitent pas à cela. On a bien vu de nombreux costumes inspirés par des jeux vidéo comme League of Legends, Assassin's Creed ou encore Mario, mais les anime, les séries TV et les films étaient aussi largement représentés, avec notamment Naruto, Pokemon ou encore Star Wars.

La nouvelle tendance chez les cosplayers est l'utilisation d'un matériau thermoplastique vendu par Worbla particulièrement pratique pour se fabriquer des armes, des objets, voire une armure. La scène se professionnalise et les grands éditeurs n'hésitent plus à faire appel à eux pour promouvoir leurs jeux vidéo.
