Allegiance: Kynight Function: Infantry, keeper of Primus� SAPPHIRE SHIELD

�Fate to the Emerald Empress�

Profile: Steel is Kynight and Eolian step cousin. Now Ky(sea) is Ky(eclipse) father, Ky(sea) mated Black also had a co-mating with Way, they had Sin, who had Eolian and Speed with Count. Way came to their mating with a child already, Iron, who then had; Steel, Plate, and Metalway. [Kynight and Kylord are Ky (eclipse) and Dame children.] So simply saying Black (the female) mated with two males, which even if uncommon is somewhat common in the hierarchy of Paix. {This family tress includes three generations- Kysea (Black), Kyeclipse (Dame), Kynight (Raggletag). Way (Black), Sin (Count), Eolian (Quartz) Way (Unknown), Iron (Metalhead), Steel (Rust-up).} Metalway died in the second battle of the Gods. Plate is a mere child, but Steel is much older. Old enough to aid Kynight and Eolian in running Paix, in fact she is older then Eolian. Kynight and Eolian treat Steel as Fuel. She is one of the family and holds all the responsibility and privileges of such. Steel would follow Kynight anywhere at anytime. Her allegiance is totally to the Sisterhood and Kynight (who leads the Sisterhood.) Those who are members of the Sisterhood consider themselves bonded to their sister (to some degree), no one can bend or break this bond, save Kynight acting as Ky and for best interested of Paix. The Sisterhood is such of Paix�s strength, to the fact that without it, the planet would no longer be productive. Steel is a practical transformer, but is also somewhat religious where Kynight is consider. (Ky has many means many things; supreme religious leader, profit. In some ways it also is like the title of Prime. Others say Ky is the being who stand between them and the Gods.)

In future times, Steel has taken as a mate, Rust-up and has had a couple of girls. Steel standing is somewhat high, Rust-up has been appointment Raggeltag�s official bodyguard which has increased his own standing greatly. Kynight also discovered Rust-up is a wonderful artist, mostly statues, and a genius at building structures. (Similar to Grapple.) This has increased his value to Paix in ways that are un-countable. Steel and Rust-up suit each well and are like an old couple that have been together for billion of years.

Abilities; Steel is one of the strongest females within the Sisterhood. On a scale of 1 to 10 she is a 10. For a tank, Steel is lightweight, which makes her fast. Steel�s max speed on record is 60 miles per hours, but rumor has it she�s done over 70! Steel doesn�t have much fire power, just her cannon, which can fire any type of shells she selects. Steel�s reach with her cannon is only 2 miles, but she never misses her targets. Steel does carry a few small knives and Code�s old shield, now called �Primus� Sapphire Shield.� Kynight had returned the Sapphire Shield as promised to Primus� temple and then took it back to give to Steel, as it had saved her life. (Kynight simply knew the Shield belonged to Steel.)
The Shield does have some special powers, but much of it is still not known. The Shield, when added to Steel�s armor has made it impenetrable. Nothing can penetrate her armor with the Shield added to it. The Shield does have other abilities- see story PRIMUS� SAPPHIRE SHIELD.

Weakness: Steel�s armor is weaker without the Shield. She can not travel in mountain areas or any liquid areas in tank mode. Steel means to leap before she looks, which makes her and Kynight a bit dangerous together. Both get themselves into situations they can�t always handle (or so it seems). Steel system is not compatible with the Transformation chip either.
