Awaking one day to discover he was fighting alongside Admiral Lilwall and his troops, Bodyshock has no memory of his past. What he doesn't realise is that he was once a human friend to Admiral Lilwall from a time when he himself was still human. Only a select few of the Lilwall's ranking members know this, and all are sworn to secrecy over it. According to everyone around him, he was fresh recruit to the faction and took damage in his first mission, resulting in lost data trax. The notion seems to coincidental to Bodyshock, but he keeps such ideas to himself. He has always felt somewhat uncomfortable not knowing his past and spends his free time trying to learn what he can about it.

Bodyshock has a tendancy to be moody. Sometimes he has a charming and pleasant nature, but also displays a snappish, grumpy nature as well. While overall a decent bot, he is the sort some either like or don't. He is naturally curious about the world around him, seeking to learn all he can about whatever strikes his interest at the time. While this isn't usually a problem, there have been times where he has become distracted from a task over something he found interesting. On the battlefield, Bodyshock has proven to be quite cunning. He prefers a more defensive style of combat, but is quite capable of more forceful measures to get the job done. Admiral Lilwall gave Bodyshock command of the newly formed Electrobots in order to help distract him from trying to discover the truth of his human past.

In panther mode, Bodyshock has great agility, easily capable of manuevering past almost any obstacle. He tail is tipped with a razer sharp blade while his teeth and claws can also make short work of enemies. In either form, he can make use of his EMP Rifle, which has a range of 800 meters. When engaged in melee combat, he can charge his body with electrical energy, delivering a shock to enemies that may land a strike against him. Durable titanium armor plating allows him to take a good deal of physical punishment before succumbing to an opponent. Bodyshock forms the centerpiece of Sparkstorm.

Bodyshock is often too harsh on himself when he fails at something. This coupled with his moody nature often tends make others keep their distance from him. He would like a greater circle of friends, but doesn't realise he puts others out by these mood swings and self doubt. He cannot use his electrical ability in wet enviroments without causing himself damage.
