Name: Perceptor
Canon/Continuity: Transformers: Fall of Cybertron / War for Cybertron
Reference: WIKI LINK
Canon Point: The end of the first few Autobot chapters of Fall of Cybertron, as the Autobots launch their transport for Shockwave's lake.
Personality:
Perceptor is... something. He's not what one would typically describe as a "people-person". He's described as being aloof and blunt, likely more preoccupied with his work, whatever that may be, than in the social comings and goings of his fellow Cybertronians. To the point of which he doesn't so much as notice another Autobot literally blowing up due to faulty wiring in his own base of operations. Though this sort of focus is double-sided -- while it occasionally blinds him to important details, it also enables him to keep working in the face of extreme conditions, such as when the Decepticon army was nearly beating his door down in-game. He'll get the job done, regardless of what he sort of environment he has to work in.
He is also opinionated, not hesitating to tell anyone what he thinks of a situation, regardless of who he's talking to, or what it is. This is seen both in a debate with senior members of the Autobot forces -- Optimus Prime included -- as well as various audio logs scattered throughout the game. Perceptor has thoughts on things, and you're going to hear about them whether you like it or not. At times this seems to border on fussiness, especially when he gives his thoughts on the energon transports, but he doesn't particularly seem to care. Though he does show general deference to Optimus in typical conversation, so he is aware of some basic conversational conventions, and can utilize them effectively.
It's likely Perceptor just doesn't care how he comes across most of the time, so long as the work, job, or experiment is accomplished. He does appear to have some sense of humor, though it's rare to see. Likely one more thing he doesn't see as necessary to express most of the time, being more dedicated to work. Additionally, Perceptor is a self-styled pacifist, loathing the use of weapons, despite apparently being a noteably good shot.
He is highly intelligent, of course. Various audio logs show him to have studied ruins in the Sea of Rust, and he was the one tasked with the enormous job of shutting down the entirety of Autobot City for the imminent evacuation. You don't assign a 'bot of even average intelligence to do something like that.
