Holoform face claim: Keanu Reeves
[/center]The key thing to know about each alternate mode is that honestly, they all have their purposes but they also have their weaknesses in terms of what they’re good for. I am not going to explain all of them as some are a given. I will explain key weaknesses with his personality and weapons/fighting style. The main thing one should know about the alternate modes is that like Interceptor, transforming while performing TurboBoost can be a little hard on him.
KITT is black save for the gray-ish racing stripes, with a Cybertronian appearance similar to to his brother’s. He has the delta ‘wings’ on his back, even though they are not actually wings. They act more or less as spoilers to aid in a little extra lift when his nanomachine wings aren’t activated. Being able to replicate his nanomachines as rapidly as KARR (now being very experienced with them), he is able to manipulate them into getting them to leave outside his body as a very large group. The wings look very bat-like. KITT’s scanners cover where the optics should be. KITT appears to have very light racing stripes on his hood, but they are not always there because of his ability to manipulate the individual colors of his nanoskin! This is an ability unique from KARR.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH
Likes:
- those at FLAG
- The Autobots
- Blindspot
- racing
- all kinds of techno music
Dislikes:
- KARR
- losing friends/loved ones
- being called emotionless and insensitive
- his interior getting dirty
- sloppy, disrespectful humans
Personality: KITT is serious and often quite emotionless, though over time and with new experiences among the humans, KITT doesn't entirely lack emotion anymore. Despite not lacking it, and being as quiet as he almost always is, KITT can easily appear to lack emotion all together, especially if he needs to hide something, and generally KITTs emotions are very stable. Unless he decides to be vocal and drop hints, it’s very hard to tell when he's upset or in need of simple company. Even after joining the Autobots, gaining their trust and receiving substantial upgrades in reward for keeping his promise of loyalty, KITT still feels like he is one of a kind (next to his older brother KARR of course). KITT DOES have a sense of humor and is often observant and to the point, rarely does he beat around the bush.
KITT's humor is usually light or dry sarcasm, and sometimes may involve a simple rhetorical statement, nothing overly flashy--usually. KITT's pretty mellow, and it's rare to see him ticked off unless those close to him are in danger (which is usually a select few). Lastly, KITT is smart to an unknown level thanks to his advanced and incredibly large data base and scanners, the speedy real time updates allow him to learn and adapt that may over achieve what he was originally thought to be programmed with-and on top of that, he seems to have developed his own layer of "human-like" intuition.
Having a lot of knowledge and being a fair bit creative with strategy now and then, KITT is a very deep insightful Autobot when you look past his emotionless, and bullet proof shell. KITT often uses his abilities to make points or reveal pertinent details and information as though they are gestures, and often knows when someone is troubled and needs someone to talk to. KITT can be pretty persuasive when need be like his brother. He’s also very brave and courageous, and hates backing out of a fight. He is programmed to protect others, and nearly everything he does in battle shows it even further. KITT hardly ever sleeps for very long (if at all), and uses his ability to absorb solar energy as a backup or additional source of power during the day, particularly while on the move.
Just keep in mind that KITT can be very meticulous and obsessive about his tasks, and uses all his abilities to make sure he doesn’t miss something in his surroundings in any given situation as well. Also, KITT definitely doesn’t take kindly to animals in his alternate mode.
Strengths:
KITT and KARR have an uncanny ability to pull in resources from obscure places and from the endless amounts of info in his data base, KITT and KARR are like live Encyclopedias. KITT can access almost anything and copy any voice and speak any language. KITT's strength lies in using that information to his advantage in or out of battle. KITT is well rounded in fighting and is an incredibly fast calculator. His timing is quite hard to compete with, and there are times he can seem to draw information out of thin air. KITT's nanotechnology. His bullet proof shell is encased with billions of high speed replicating nanomachines. These nanomachines can replicate fast enough to where they can heal dents and bullet holes within seconds, even while repeatedly being fired at. The glass can repair spontaneously.
KITT can shape shift, and his speed rivals his younger brother’s. He can go up to 700mph with turbo boost in his bot form or a faster, sleeker car form. In his Mustang or truck forms however, he can’t go as fast. The sleeker the vehicle
Weaknesses:
Obviously, KI3T can't navigate long distances or access vast amounts of information consistently or hack into multiple cameras unless FLAG's satellite is functioning properly (or if he can hack into alternate ones). If it's hacked, he has to connect to a backup one, or none at all. Quality of navigation and accessibility to external devices is reduced considerably. Also, if KI3T gets busy with hacking, this can slow him down and also distract him after a certain point! Please note that his biggest weakness is the SCANNER AT THE FRONT OF HIS HOOD (or where the optics should be in his mech form). It was proven in the old series that that is both one of KITT and KARRs major weaknesses. On top of this, KITT is a bit of a softie, and two, KITT isn't all that great once his nanoskin starts to weaken. After taking repetitive blows of regular ammunition, it can start to slow down. Substantial blasts from Energon slow his shell quicker if a lot of blasts hit a sensitive area. A newer weakness of KITT’s is also his potential sparkmate Aura. He loves her a lot and his love for her as continued to grow since she became an Autobot (as she was once human, the first to be turned into a Cyberonian, and was KITT’s partner and charge as a human!).

THE SKELETONS IN YOUR CLOSET
Family:
KARR (older bro)
G8155 Interceptor (younger bro)
Sarah Graiman/Traceur (‘sister’), Mike Knight/Traceur and their adoptive daughter Cira Knight
History:
The original KITT was created by a genius man named Charles Graiman who was sponsored by a rich man namned Wilton Knight. The super intelligent car was basically the man’s dying dream, known as the Knight Industries Two Thousand. All though the car was smart, he knew it needed a human partner. Before he died, Wilton Knight found a young cop named Michael Long who was in desperate need of surgery after his life become jeopardized in a mission while trying to stop a crime scene. A metal plate in his head that was surgically installed there saved his life (it was there since he had served in the military before he settled into the life of a cop). Surgeons at Wilton Knight's secret organization known as the Foundation for Law and Government took Michael in for surgery, gave him a new face and a new name: Michael Knight. Wilton Knight and Devon Miles (one of the lead managers) convinced him to be KITT’s driver, so from that point forward, KITT and Michael were partners for almost four decades before FLAG was shut down and Michael Knight retired.
KITT was rebuilt/revamped named Dr.Graiman in the early 2000's. He became the Knight Industries Three Thousand, and eventually, with a new group of allies hiding out at a base known as Knight Industries. However, after Charle's Graiman unfortunate death in a C130 acident, they eventually brought back FLAG.
Since then, Mike and Sarah have been busy, but have also taken the time to upgrade KITT and give him a full robotic transformation sequence that would rival with the Cybertronian’s true forms in quality. The upgrade was achieved because of Sarah busily designing a new car, her own personal project called the G8155 Interceptor. After the vehicle’s original blue prints for its default form were designed, Sarah and the others at the SSC she was close to put their heads together in creating a full robotic artificially intelligent vehicle – completely unaware that by 2024 a robotic alien race was starting to make Earth their home.
KITT and Mike are out doing their usual missions around the country where an extra hand is needed, where the powerless need someone strong, and where those with a weak voice need an extra ear. Mike and KITT are also training their adoptive daughter to drive the G8155 Interceptor, since Mike is still content in being KITT’s partner until his son gets older.

IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY?
Weapons:
Bot form weapons:
- two red light saber chainsaws (looking just like KARR’s save for the color).
- a plasma pistol (just like SD KARR’s) - when charged fully it can fire large blasts up to ones nearing half the size of his mustang form (but this is seldom) -most of the time they are about a third this size, or the size of large tires
vehicular form(s) weapons:[/b][/u]
- side rocket launchers
- gattling guns on the hood (not like the A10’s)
Abilities:
Features/mechanisms. KITT and KARR share ALL the same features and weapons!

WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME
"Yes, but not as many as she did in the past. She mostly keeps up with maintenance and scans now. My systems have done well." KITT replied. "Even since her father's death. Both have allowed me to be who I am today." Of course there were something regarding her and Charles that KITT would be uncomfortable with sharing, like how Charles had created a back door method for hacking into KITT and a self destruct mechanism in case something went wrong in his programming as it did for KARR. KITT understood now that Charles had simply not wanted another accident like the one with KARR to happen again. Charles and Sarah had been surprised when he was starting to develop some of his own programming, as well as using contractions. During that time he had even expressed feelings of betrayal towards what Charles had done with out him being aware.[/blockquote][/size]
First it was the feeling of worry when Mike and Sarah nearly died in his own form, then confusion, then the sense of betrayal, and when Charles died, he'd felt sorrow...KITT was evolving under their noses even to this day - though they were a little more aware that KITT had feelings to some extent, especially those close to him at the SSC. The subject of Charle's death prompted a whole series of past memories and emotions to shift through KITT's processor. He also had a sense of snarky humor and sarcasm, and those were no recent qualities.
KITT transformed into his Mustang form, deeming there was no reason to worry for now. Without another word, more holographic images of his recorded memories flickered onto the hood of the Mustang. He dared not show Blindspot what happened that one Halloween when the SSC was compromised, though he did replay the particular moments when he was trying to explain to Mike and Sarah that downloading his raw data into the former prototype would not restore his current being - the essence of who he was...He showed the time when he and Sarah had been able to save Mike from a deadly poison by filling in the missing antigens right in the middle of the action.
The Halloween thing was several years ago, and his frame shuddered slightly at the memory as it played. He felt like it was important to share since Blindspot was a drone, but he didn't need to see the rest.
KITT was busy remembering a lot in these moments, and seemed comfortable in sharing what scenes he did display on the holographic imagery.
