Mirror Universe Tech Specs

Cyclonus
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: RESTORER

" Strength and honour embiggens the smallest mech."

Note:

Large and emotional, Cyclonus is noted as one of the wisest and kindest of all Decepticons. After the traumatic events of 2005, the Decepticons Skywarp and Bombshell decided to eschew all war and had themselves rebuilt into Cyclonus, the ultimate peacemaker, to bring peace to the shattered cosmos. Swearing to never hurt another soul, Cyclonus fights with words instead. His speeches are deemed cromulant by all, and he has travelled the Galaxy brokering peace deals. Now he has returned to Earth to attempt to heal the one rift he never could - the rift with the evil Autobots!

Skills: Pamphlets, Prayer, Meditation

Nightbeat
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: SECRET POLICE

"They say you can be cops or criminals. When you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?"

Note:

Once, Nightbeat cared about things like justice and truth. These days, he just cares about knowing everything going on and using it to his best advantage, be it by charging protection rackets, taking bribes to look the other way, or by unsavoury interrogation techniques. Nightbeat fights dirty and never hesitates to make a deal that can't be refused. He takes pride in forcing previously virtuous Transformers to do dirty deeds.

Skills: Blackmail, Extortion, Ginger_Beer_Trick

Wildrider
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: FREEDOM FIGHTER

"Enjoy the silence."

Note:

Wildrider is an exceptionally careful and cautious motorist. He produces guerrilla public safety videos and smuggles them out to ensure safety on the streets. His comrades know that Wildrider is really sincere in his dedication to safety. He dreads all noise and commotion. Wildrider dreams of becoming a librarian after the war but fears there may be no libraries left by then.

Skills: Dewy_Decimal_System, Public_Safety, Quiet

Punch
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: OVERT OPERATIONS

"Hey guys, guess what? I'm COUNTERPUNCH!"

Note:

Aggressive, unsubtle and loutish, Punch was once one of a pair. He and his brother Counterpunch found themselves on opposite sides, but whereas Counterpunch led the life of peaceful resistance, Punch became a monster. He murdered Counterpunch and had him skinned, forcing technicians to graft Counterpunch's dead body onto his own frame as a third mode in order to show off and mock his dead counterpart. Now Punch swaggers about, making sure everyone knows exactly what happened to Counterpunch, and what a dangerous mechanoid he is!

Skills: Swearing, Bragging, Knowledge:Illegal Drinking Dens

Blueshift
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: RENAISSANCE MAN

"I am but one mech, at the service of the Galaxy."

Note:

Blueshift is a Decepticon humble of his own abilities. A swashbuckling, charming, smooth, popular statesman, Blueshift is a refined gentleman, preferring only the finest of energon mixers, but always mindful never to hurt anyones feelings, and will always donate to charity whenever he can find it. Poilte, British and well-mannered, Blueshift is fearful of the evil Autobots and vows to use all of his many skills to make life gosh-darn-better for everyone concerned!

Skills: Drinking_With_Pinkie_Up, Knowledge:Tea, Swashbuckling

Scrapper
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Artist

"My work is a monument to my friends."

Note:

Boastful and proud, Scrapper epitomes the essence of a temperamental artist who demands respect from those he serves with. Prefering to fight the Autobots with grand displays, sculptures, and long lasting buildings that promote peace and friendship, he and his fellow Constructicons seek to change the world through artistic expression. An amazing flier; can fly mach 3 by addition of Levitation Wing. Carries a virtual armoury of weaponry, from swords to bazookas and everything in between. As right leg and part of torso, combines with fellow constructicons to form Devastator, friend of children and Omega Supremes everywhere.

Skills: Art, Boasting, Safety_Regulations

Galvatron
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: LIVING LEGEND OF THE RESISTANCE

"As long as we believe in ourselves -- defeat is absurd!"

Note:

Once the wise, just leader known as Megatron, Galvatron was forced to take on a new name and a new visage to hide from the treacherous Autobot empire in 2005. Posing as a mad old coot living out in the neglected desert wastes of Tunisia, Galvatron nonetheless provides aid to the Decepticons where he can, always full of sound advice and clear-headed, logical thinking should anyone ever seek him out and see through his downtrodden facade. To most of his surroundings, he is an insignificant beggar or a local crazy nubbin; he is content to let them believe he is nothing, if it means that he may better offer his brilliant tactical mind to those Decepticon leaders who know his true identity. Galvatron is armed with an arm-mounted null ray, although he is loath to use it; it was the weapon of his dearest and most loyal friend, Starscream, who died to save his life from the Autobots in 2005. Galvatron will never forget.

Soundwave
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: SPECIAL

"M-O-O-N, that spells Soundwave!"

Note:

Built at the start of the war by the brilliant but tiny Cassetticons in order to provide them with an efficient way to move heavy objects. Friendly but not too bright, Soundwave is regarded as the Decepticons' lovable mascot whose childlike antics provide a refreshing break from the horrors of war. Secretly wants to be a choo-choo train when he grows up.

Skills: none

Rodimus Prime
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: AUTOBOT TYRANT

Rank: 10/Despot

"Nothing's gonna stand in my way."

Note:

A vicious tyrant for the Autobot ranks. Possesses acute military prowess. Speaks with the savvy of a seasoned fascist. Expert tactician with exceptional maneurvability in battle. Exceptionally hot-headed at all times. Always shoots first and never questions himself later. In robot mode, carries a photon eliminator that shoots high voltage electricity. Range: 500 miles. Speed: 200 MPH. Sole purpose is to enslave all life. His only weakness is his immense vanity and love of hair metal.

Skills: Tyranny, Combat-Driving, Strategy, Tactics

Cliffjumper
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: SECURITY

"Strike first, strike fast, strike hard."

Note:

He's driven by desire to persecute Decepticons, and in battle his eagerness and daring have no equal. Good-natured to his fellow Autobots, though sometimes careless with property. His recklessness often leads to actual blowouts and situations too dangerous for him to handle. Although he finds Earth terrain a hindrance, he's one of the fastest Autobots, and often uses his speed to draw fire away from others. Shoots 'glass gas' which makes metal as brittle as glass. Inherited the position of Rodimus Prime's bodyguard after the suspicious death of Ironhide in 2005.

Skills: Off-Road Driving, Combat Driving, Bravado, Poisoning Ironhide

Red Alert
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: SECURITY DIRECTOR

Rank: 5/Captain - Operations

"Why, yes, I do enjoy watching."

Note:

Nothing escapes his notice, no matter how small, and you can be sure what he's noticed about other Transformers will come back to haunt them. Uses the information he gathers to blackmail comrades and enemies alike. Excellent sensory perception. Very indulgent of his sensors - constantly seeks new experiences, enjoys living a life of luxury. Fast in vehicular mode. Carries 25-mile range rocket launcher with particle beam rifle. Easily bribed with cash, new experiences, or information.

Skills: Observation, Blackmail, Decryption, Encryption, Self-Indulgence

Blitzwing
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: GUERRILLA HERO

"I think before I act, and thus reveal / The secret way to wisdom, and success."

Note:

Although Blitzwing originally possessed two modes like any Transformer, he could not in good conscience justify his high fuel usage while the less fortunate went dry. Therefore he had his alternate mode removed, increasing his efficiency tenfold. A hero to the downtrodden, he is known for his mercy in battle as much as for his wisdom. Has a reputation as thoughtful, earnest and intense. Speaks only in poetric metric. His face appears often on suppressed posters and murals. Flies at 30 mph, range virtually unlimited. Armed with battle rifle, grenades and combat knife. In lieu of transformation, rides tech-bike capable of nearly supersonic speed. Mobility hampered if separated from his vehicle.

Skills: Advanced_Rhyming_Methods: Iambic, Advanced_Rhyming_Methods: Trochaic, Inspirational_T-Shirt_Face

Lightspeed
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: DATA PROCESSING MEAT SHIELD

"Huh? Wait! What's going on now?"

Note:

Lightspeed's name is an oxymoron compared to how he really is. He's not slow physically, but his central processor is. The reason for this is because Lightspeed has dedicated a large, significant portion of his central processor to his dream of burrowing deep into the ground and staying there to do things. This leaves him almost always seeming to be a few seconds behind the rest of the Autobots in functioning and in battle. Yet he's still able to follow orders as well as others around, mostly as a sort of instinct than any kind of actual thought. He has yet to get permission to fulfill his dream. Takes it out on Decepticons once he realizes they're around.

Skills: Day dreaming, Following Around, Taking Hits

Apocryphacius
Species: Quintesson

Faction: Earth Domination Command

Function: TECH SUPPORT

"This is tech support. If you could just hold on for a few more millennia... eheh HA haha..."

Note:

Unlike the other civil, peace-mongering Quintessons, Apocryphacius is a throwback the likes of which have not been seen for ages. Captured by the Earth Domination Command at a young age, he was carefully brought up to serve their bidding. He serves them as a customer tech support representative and is cruel, capricious, and utterly uncaring. Apocryphacius like humans. They make funny noises when he experiments on them. Is rumoured to assist the Autobots on the side, but no one can prove anything. In his spare time, Apocryphacius enjoys creating doomsday devices, grafting together unholy hybrids, and trying to convince people to format C:.

Skills: Customer_Tech_Support, Mad_Science, Medical_Malpractice

Fireflight
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: Scout

"When I'm in the skies, no Enemy remains unseen, and therefore, no enemy remains safe."

Note:

Rumored to have the keenest optics, Fireflight's attention span and patience is infinite. He can sit and watch and wait for weeks without moving until he is satisfied with what he sees. Dedicates most of his processor speeds to analyzing what he sees, and what best use to put it to in order to advance the Autobot cause. Oftentimes is so wrapped up in his analyzing that he flies straight into others! Not that he cares about collateral damage. That is SILVERBOLTS problem.

Kup
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: N/A

"Shut the hell up and listen to me, you idiots."

Note:

Kup was an old veteran who once helped subdue thousands of worlds on his ten thousand campaigns. Provided words of wisdom and advice to the other Autobots, so long as they stayed quiet and listened to him. Autobots that interrupted him when he told his tales of conquest were frequently beaten within an inch of their lives. An abusive enerholic, Autobots feared tutelage by Kup. Hot Rod was his star student, and Kup subjected him to brutal training regimens so that he "wouldn't turn out like that wuss, Optimus." Unfortunately for Kup, he was all too successful. Once transformed into a Cybertronian pickup truck and wielded an acid musket that fired laser bolts.

Skills: Beatings, Drinking, Training, Storyteller

Chimera
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: SCRAPPER'S SECRETARY/SNIPER

"I exist as a reminder of the possibilities, and to make sure those possibilities never come to be."

Alternate Quote: "You're an awesome shot, Shockwave!"

Note:

While her core programming was copied from that of an Autobot Warrior, Chimera gained the Decepticon perspective through the teachings and care of Doubleback. She volunteered for some of the most dangerous missions with the same bravado and near recklessness of the Autobot that she had been copied from. However her personality was forever warped when her undercover stint as an Autobot came to an abrupt end at the hands of a certain mad scientist. Rescued by the Decepticons in a daring infiltration, Chimera was restored by medics to the best of their abilities. The brazen personality remains, however over-cautiousness tends to temper the wild flights-of-fancy. Memories of her ordeal keep her from simply vanishing, however, and the desire to help those fighting for peace keeps her at the sides of those who would continue the struggle. Chimera's pyramid jet form sports both a plasma generator and ballistic railguns. In robot mode she carries both a gauss pistol and laser pistol for added security, as well as several knives.

Skills: Area knowledge Cybertron, Explosives, Trick shooting, Sniper, Oracle, HTML, Ener-Coffee

Avalanche
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Peacemonger

"One is far stronger, when they don't have to fight."

Note:

Avalanche is a mech who has completely dedicated himself to pacifism. Despite his huge size, and awe inspiring strength, he has taken a vow of non-violence. However, he himself will never allow another innocent to be harmed in his presence. Actively he'll protect those, who cannot protect themselves. Though, after such encounters, he meditates on the violence he had brought upon the other. Hoping that one day, his example might affect those around him, to follow the path has dedicated himself too.

Americon
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: CULTURAL ANALYST

"I will never stop resisting the oppression of the Autobots... IN AMERICA!"

Note:

Americon's purpose within the Decepticons is to help them better understand American culture and help facilitate friendly relations between Americans and Decepticons. A technical wizard and one of the most level-headed of all the Decepticons, Americon is well known as someone who can always be counted on. Inspired by the stories of the Founding Fathers opposing British rule during the Revolutionary War, Americon hopes to help the United States overthrow the Autobots and restore peace and Democracy. A triple-changer, Americon has twin blasters in robot mode, hyper-rockets in eagle mode, and a small defensive turret in tape mode. Americon is a determined fighter, and while his armaments aren't very strong, he's tough enough to absorb Autobot attacks until his comrades have retreated to safety.

Skills: History in America, Culture in America, Geography in America, War in America

Geist
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: SPECIAL OPERATIONS

"Tyrants use fear to remain on top, but they themselves will always have the most fear to exploit of all."

Note:

Once an Insecticon, Geist volunteered to undergo a rebuild to become part of the Sweep squad. A program initiated by his Decepticon cell to raise up lesser battle-successful Decepticon warriors to the high standards needed to counteract the brutal Autobots. The uniformity in their chosen form was selected to mirror the old style visages of former Decepticon heros. Boisterous and fond of life's bounty of goodness, Geist becomes a completely different mech when engaged in warfare. Seeks to bring the feeling of terror to the Autobots who need to be broken down mentally to be truely defeated. A keen observer of behaviour and psycological analysist. Able to cloak his presence via holographic masking, allowing for the element of surprise. His tactics are those of the small and desperate opposition against and insurmountable army. Most effective as an explosives expert when he manages to slip past enemy lines.

Skills: Covert Operations, Tracking, Learning Your Fears

Marissa Xabat
Species: Human

Faction: Terran

Function: EDC Second in Command

"Party time!"

Note:

Born in 1983, Marissa coasted on the reputation and successes of her parents, getting through EDC boot camp despite never applying herself. She is infamous for being the only soldier to pass without breaking a single nail. Superficial and ditzy, Marissa was quickly taken 'under the wing' of EDC Commander Compton Xabat. After a whirlwind romance, Marissa emerged with a promotion to second in command and a husband. Prone to abusing her rank and participating in rampant infighting, Marissa lords her position over anyone and everyone. Incompetent in the field, it's been theorized by the troops that she's gone into battle drunk on multiple occasions.

Skills: Alcohol_Consumption, Deviousness, Wearing_A_Lot_Of_Leather

Fleet
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: WARRIOR

Rank: 2/Wing Leader - Aerospace

"If you want to inspire others to fight for themselves, it's best to look good while fighting for them!"

Note:

Charming, brave, daring, a bit reckless, and more than a little arrogant. Considered shallow by some. Believes the best way to win is to win spectacularly. Focuses more on fancy trick maneuvers than actually useful combat tactics. Prone to bragging, but actions follow words - regularly risks his life for his comrades. Praise and thanks are reward enough - he seeks no other compensation. Was once one of the 'disposable shocktroopers' employed by the Autobots, but has escaped their oppression. As a robot, can channel excess heat in a powerful plasma blast from either guns or foot-thrusters. Uses a pair of energon daggers for close combat, standard lasers and ballistics for ranged. As a pyramid jet, is also armed with air-to-air rockets.

Skills: Acrobatics, Aerobatics, Acting, Oration, Sharpshooting, Risk-Taking, Trick Piloting

Compton Xabat
Species: Human

Faction: Terran

Function: EDC Supreme Commander

"I so enjoy cracking open a robot. It's like opening a present."

Note:

A ruthless terrorist mastermind, Compton Xabat is the leader of the Earth Domination Command and one of the most feared men on the Earth. Few have seen the face behind his hooded mask, and fewer know of his past. It is rumored, however, that Compton Xabat's parents and siblings were killed by Autobots, and this has fueled him with a burning desire for vengeance upon them. Combines military genius with scientific knowledge, and has outfitted his entire army with equipment reverse-engineered from the Transformers he has personally vivisected. Enjoys playing the Autobots and Decepticons against each other for his own benefit. While he is a determined and focused leader, he does tend to play favorites, especially with his wife, Marissa Xabat. This can undermine morale, but few dare to question Compton Xabat openly.

Skills: Reverse-engineering, Psychology, Terrorism

Catechism
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: AIR COMMANDER

"Life isn't fair, but that's no reason to give up."

Note:

Catechism has questioned her part in the Decepticon cause time and time again. Sometimes, she wonders if the Autobot Republic might have the right idea, if only they would change their methods a bit. However, the end doesn't justify the means, it is that thought that keeps her with the Decepticons, where she brings a more militaristic approach to the table. Equipped with a veritable personal armoury of various weapons, her favourite is the electrified whip she took from her Autobot overseer the day she beat his face in and fled. She transforms into a space-capable F-35B.

Skills: Cultural_Knowledge:_Autobot_Republic, Acrobatics, Aerobatics, Debate, Questioning

Sam
Species: Human

Faction: Earth Domination Command

Function: MAD SCIENTIST

"I guess I could part with ONE of my doomsday weapons and still be feared!"

Note:

An EDC genetic experiment to see if the humans could create and train the perfect super-scientist to design devious weapons with which to hold the world hostage. Prone to cackling maniacally at socially inappropriate times. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Mass Destruction, 2029, for blowing up part of the Pacific Ocean. Currently plans to build himself a giant robot body with enhanced sensors for spying on the Cybertronians.

Skills: Evil Laugh, Impractical Weaponry, Telephone Numbers of World Leaders

Durango
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: DEMOLITIONS

"Good sir, would you please be so kind as to vacate the premises in a quick, yet orderly fashion, and find yourself suitable protective coverings?"

Note:

While on Cybertron, Durango mingled with the elite classes, enjoying the finer things in life, such as fine ener-cognac, chess, and his favorite pastimes: oratory and debate. After suffering a brutal broken left pinky-digit during an uprising of his estates' minions, he fell in line with the Autobots in order to gain their support in quelling his errant subjects. Long an amateur chemist, he has found new life amongst the faction's ranks as a demolitions expert, He does feel a tad 'above' his fellow Autobots, and isn't afraid to expouse on said fact -- eloquently -- at a moment's notice.

Skills: Oration, Debate, Blowing_Things_The_F!:)_Up

ADDENDUM: Durango is dead.

Quickswitch
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: ASSAULT UNIT

"A confused enemy..."

Note:

Note: A living weapon, Quickswitch is as much banner of the Autobot cause as he is a direct and lethal arm in the conflict. Glorifying the opulance of the Autobot position, the unprecedented number of modes he possesses are an obscene and deadly excess, highly energon intensive, all destructive and oriented for Rodimus Prime's goal of conquest and domination. Examplifying everything the Autobots stand for, Quickswitch is a virtual one-robot army with the ability to transform three times as fast as normal. Bearing no less than six modes, he transforms from assault robot into an armor piercing drill tank, an assault hovercraft cruiser, a jet-propelled laser pistol, a savage assault beast with stealth shielding, and a sub-orbital fighter jet, and armed with a pair of photon blasters in all modes. A fierce proponant of the Autobot cause, esteemed by some Quickswitch is nonetheless plagued by misgivings of others and misgivings of his own. By rights an Autobot elite, an aristocrat, Quickswitch found himself judged warily at best by some, and at worst, shunned by his fellows, socially beyond that of a powerful, cutthroat warrior, into something entirely freakish in design and function. Despite this, arrogant to a fault as one of the finest warriors to carry the banner of conquest, yet resentful of being treated as little more than chattel in a double standard by his own esteemed Command. Can be cruel, compassionate, contemptuous, friendly, contented, or wrathful. Competely unpredictable. A savage warrior responsble for the subduing and deaths of many, many Decepticons, and even some Autobots, a cruel torturer of those few left alive, and then not for long. Third hand accounts have also reported the frighteningly illogical Quickswitch encouraging his allies to show no mercy to their foes, then permitting some foes to leave the field alive, showing compassion, but there are no first hand accounts of this.

Andrea Lassiter
Species: Human

Faction: Terran

Function: EDC Head Torturer

"I don't really care what you know. But you will BEG tell me everything you know before I am done with you."

Note:

Andrea Lassiter has had a very long and notable career with the Earth Domination Command, rising in the ranks of the Intelligence division due to her ruthless and methodical efficiency -- so much so that the average civilian would soil himself under a direct stare. In 2015 she mastered the 'art' of gleaning intelligence from Cybertronian prisoners, and has since become one of the most feared humans on the planet. There are even rumors that Compton Xabat hesitates to cross her.

Skills: The_Glare, Interrogation, Intimidation, Torture

Sunder
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: SPECIAL OPERATIONS

"Why can't we all just get along?"

Note:

Sunder is the epitome of the Guardian Angel. After his voluntary conversion into a Sweep to give the Decepticons a fighting chance against the Evil Autobots(tm), Sunder does what is necessary, although deep in his core he wishes he didn't have to. Friendly and gregarious among his comrades, but becomes incredibly angry at the thought of anyone being oppressed, enslaved, or unjustly imprisoned. This anger is what fuels him when the time comes to stand against the Evil Autobots(tm) and their incomprehensible tyranny.

Skills: Hunting, Tracking, Spreading the Love Around, Pack-Tactics

Hinder
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Harbinger of Cuteness

"Ooh, shiny!"

Note:

Hinder is the newest and youngest Decepticon cassette, built by her siblings purely for the fun of it. She's bouncy, and energetic, and pretty well useless except for the cute factor. People doing mean things make her unhappy, though, and she'll tell them quite plainly that their meanness is just not nice.

Skills: Bouncing, Simpering, Distracting

Grimlock
Species: Transformer

Faction: Autobot

Function: Dinobot Commander

"To think, you're about to be slain by I, Grimlock! Bit of an honor, wot?"

Note:

Few Autobots are stronger, tougher, or braver than Grimlock- and he knows it. Grimlock is by far the greatest creation of the mad scientist Wheeljack. Originally intended to be a mindless killing machine, Grimlock soon developed a keen intellect. Charismatic, jovial, and utterly ruthless, Grimlock assumed command of his fellow Dinobots, shaping them into an elite commando unit. Armed with his combination Galaxial Rocket Launcher/Energo Sword, Grimlock could wreak great swaths of destruction on Earthen cities, but he doesn't, considering humans not worth his time or energy. Secretly resents Rodimus Prime, but knows he can't depose the Autobot tyrant until the time is right. Until then, Grimlock serves the Autobot cause with gusto.

Skills: Swordsmanship, English_Accent, Commando Tactics.

Tantrum
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: FUELER

"Anger is the fuel for the fires of war."

Note:

Prefers reason over brute force. When not fulfilling his duties as a refueling specialist, Tantrum seeks to guide others in controlling their negative emotions. Considered to be one of the most level-headed Decepticons. Prefers to use rational discussion to solve conflicts. Loathes fighting, but is willing to do whatever he must to battle the oppressive forces of the Autobots. Combines with fellow Predacons to form Predaking.

Skills: Psychology, Philosophy, Group Therapy

Razorclaw
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Predacon Commander

Rank: 2/Sergeant

"Quick thinking and knowledge of one's environment is paramount to ultimate knowledge."

Note:

Razorclaw is forever assessing the situation around him while taking in every detail as fast as possible. This usually leads to very quick commands with one word given to his fellow predacons and quick decisive actions taken by him. Often thought of as reckless, his plans come to fruition when making very quick strikes, but is flexible as time goes on. When not called to action, he is a professor of higher learning and 'unique thinking', which he hopes to return to someday. Currently he doesn't think it'll happen, as long as the Autobot oppression lingers.

PREDAKING
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: GUARDIAN

"Protect first, ask questions later."

Note:

The closest thing to a perfect guardian that the Decepticons have. As a defender he has no equal; as a hunter he has no restraints. While his actions result from seemingly savage, animal instinct, he seems to act with specific intent to protect those around him. Uses his incredibly keen senses to track down and eliminate any who have harmed those around him. His apparent compassion for lesser beings is his only known weaknesses.

Skills: Tracking, Hunting

Shockwave
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: HIGH-ENERGY METAPHYSICS

"Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment."

Note:

Approaches mysticism in a logical, objective manner. His highly advanced state of awareness makes it hard for others to understand or deal with his intuitive, emotional thinking. Keeps watch for the chance to explore previously unknown states of being and open gateways to other planes of existence, since logic (more so than personal preference) dictates that the shackles of Autobot oppression cannot be thrown off by the Decepticons themselves due to their peace-loving, largely ineffectual natures. In his empowered form, can emit psychic energy from his own enlightened mind, achieving supernatural feats. Holds both life and death in his two hands, possesses the wisdom to know when to use each. High fuel use, but can be powered by the innate harmony of the universe. Although blind, supernatural awareness grants him the equivalent of sight. When the Autobots were closing in on the location of his school, Shockwave vanished several years ago in front of dozens of his students and has not been seen since. It is believed by some that he will eventually return, an event that will foretell the fall of the evil Autobot hegemony and the coming of a new age.

Skills: Knowledge: All_That_Is, Science: Pandimensional, Science: Applied Metaphysics, Knowledge: Enlightenment, Tactics: Psychic Master, Knowledge: Unknowable

Fulcrum
Species: Transformer

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Industrialist

" Selfishness is the only virtue."

Note:

An upbeat and optimistic Decepticon, Fulcrum firmly believes in the philosophy of acting only in ones self interest. Openly scornful of the concept of the "greater good", Fulcrum always ensues he is reembursed in full for any action undertaken. In robot mode, Fulcrum carries a huge golden war hammer in one hand, its head carved with the cybertronian symbol for money, and the only thing able to work the patented "Fulcrum Metal" that he sells only to the highest bidder. In MiG-29 mode he's equiped with wing-mounted Cold Rays, able to freeze metal until it shatters. Although Fulcrum is friendly and charming, he values personal freedom and property above all, and will only follow those who have similar ideals.

Skills: Free-Market-Captialism, Objectivism, Metallurgy
