"You break it, I'll remake it."
Ratchet was the best tool-and-die man on Cybertron.
In his workbay he can make anything from a pin to a missile. Repairs
injured Autobots, given the right parts. Likes to party, give backtalk,
but does any job as well as anyone. Has laser scalpels, arc-welders,
electron microscopes, circuit sensors, fluid dispensers at his disposal.
Sometimes his having a good time interferes with his effectiveness.
