Explanation of the conversion: Razoprclaw's Unluck disadvantage should usually manifest as his joints locking in place.
History (Dreamwave comics): Razorclaw was one of five powerful Decepticon warlords known as the Predacons. The Predacons disappeared
and were eventually found by Megatron on the planet Beast, with their memories and identities lost. Megatron captured
them and reformatted them to be able to combine into the gestalt warrior Predaking, planning to use him to return to
leadership of the Decepticons (Transformers: Summer Special #1).
Defeated by the Autobots on Cybertron, Shockwave. was forced to set up a new secret headquarters in the wastelands of
Cybertron, with Astrotrain, Blitzwing, Dirge, Ramjet and Thrust following him. Shockwave completed work on his new
warrior, Sixshot. Megatron returned to Cybertron with three clone warriors and the Predacons and was able to defeat
Shockwave. Shockwave was kept alive, but restrained. All Shockwave's warriors except Blitzwing, who was destroyed, joined
up with Megatron in his plan to invade the Earth (Transformers: Generation One III #9).
Razorclaw is all business - cruel, brutal business. He despises waste in any form. He does not spend a second of his time or burn a drop of his fuel unless he's certain of tangible results. In his case, that typically takes the form of the smoking wreckage of an enemy Autobot. Those who are not familiar with him often mistake his long stretches of inactivity for laziness and disinterest. That can be a fatal mistake. For, upon closer inspection, one would see that his eyes never close, that they are constantly shifting their gleaming steely stare, monitoring all they see, and when Razorclaw observes that the moment is just right, he explodes into furious, ferocious action. These belligerent bursts of energy usually only last a few seconds, but that's usually all it takes for Razorclaw to demolish an opponent. Afterwards, he returns to his resting state - keeping his own counsel, watching all around him... and waiting for the next right moment to strike!
Trivia:Razorclaw shouldn't be confused with Razorclaw II, a Predacon who turns into a crab, Razorclaw III, or
Razorclaw IV, a Decepticon who turns into a transmetal hawk/tiger hybrid.
Trivia: On the Transformers television show, the voice of Razorclaw is played by actor Joe Leahy.
Powers: Razorclaw has enormous strength. In lion mode, he can leap distances as long as a football field. His claws
can rip through foot-thick steel with one swipe and allow him to climb up the sides of buildings by digging into their
walls. He can run at 90 mph. In both lion and robot modes, he has twin concussion blasters that shoot capsules that
explode on contact and release a volatile gas. In robot mode, he wields a sonic sword. It emits powerful vibrations that
shatter the crystalline molecular structures of metals on contact, enhancing the sword's cutting power tenfold. He can fly
at 90 mph. He
combines with his fellow Predacons to form the giant robot Predaking.
Weaknesses: Razorclaw isn't very fast. He is sometimes partially immobilized by his joints locking in place
following his often long periods of inactivity.
