Megatron, an aspiring miner and gladiator from Kaon, united his gladiators under the Decepticon banner with the intent of taking down the old Senate and replacing it with a better one, governed by him. Sentinel Prime, commander of the cybertronian police, tried to stop him but Megatron defeated Sentinel and put his head on a pike, showing the world he meant business. He tore down the Senate and their oppressive leadership. Some people rejoiced, others revolted. A cop, going by the name Orion Pax, tried to argue with the idealist to reach a truce but the Decepticon overlord promised him that he "won't stop at nothing until what [he] started is over". Months later Orion stumbled upon an old artifact lost to time, the Matrix of Light, which turned him into Optimus Prime – the latest in the lineage of Primes and a true descendant, possessing the Matrix within his chest. He formed a band of rebels who opposed the Decepticons, which he called Autobots. With that the Last Cybertronian War began.

Now three years into the war, Optimus' band has grown into an army fighting against the Decepticon menace. Prime has launched the Great Exodus, a way for anyone who doesn't want to partake in the war to leave Cybertron and find peace among the stars. Megatron, seeing this as an act of cowardice, sent his aerial squadron which his first lieutenant – Starscream dubbed the Seekers, to destroy the last functioning spaceport in Autobot possession. Which was located in Iacon, Cybertron's capital and the Autobots base of operations. What followed was a barrage of missiles and dozens upon dozens of death bodies covering the scorched land.

Meanwhile across the planet on the Toraxxis Planes, was a huge mega-refinery. One of the Five Decepticon Generals – Straxus unleashed an onslaught of soldiers and fliers, in an attempt to conquer the refinery. The Autobots created trenches around it to use as cover. The fight there was ferocious, many gave their lives to seize it and many more gave their lives to defend it…

–Alpha Trion's Memorial Records of 3rd cycle 1072–


Welcome to the Last Cybertronian War, an RP which is taking the idea of going through the whole Cybertronian War, from its beginning to end. The idea is to explore this vast period of time and see where it leads us. Exploring morally gray decisions and technological marvels (e.g. pretenders, combiners, headmasters). All of these will be developed as we go deeper into the war. And as the war progresses we'll see sub factions (e.g. Wreckers, Lightning Strike Coalition) and splinter groups (e.g. Ultracons, Destrons).


Rules
The usual rules about godmodding, NSFP and gore apply, but just to clarify:

- Please lay out OOC chat like ((Message)) or [[Message]]

- Please keep OOC fights and arguments out of the RP, we wants this to be fun.

- No godmodding. This consists of taking control of another person’s characters, or dictating if your attacks hit the opponents. On the other hand, don’t avoid every hit.

- Complete bios before posting in the RP.

- Keep gore to a minimum.

- No NSFW stuff.

- Combiners and other specific sub classes will be allowed but not at first. However you can only take up to two components of a Combiner if you so desire. The command component will get control of the combiner (E.g. Silverbolt for Superion, Onslaught for Bruticus).

- No Titan-class Transformers are allowed for non-moderators (E.g. Omega Supreme, Metroplex, Trypticon).

- At present, you will only be allowed to claim 25 characters (try to keep numbers balanced between the factions), however this may change as the RP develops.

- Triple Changers, however, are allowed from the beginning.

- No OC characters.

- Multiple locations will be active at the same time, allowing players to choose where their character(s) may start.

- Listen to the moderators.

- Flesh out your posts. No one word posts, try to use at least 3 sentences in your post.

- Be prepared for characters to die, no one is invincible. It's war after all.

- Optimus and Megatron are reserved for the moderators, everything else is up for grabs, so go wild!


Factions
Autobots
Following the uprising of Megatron's Decepticon movement and demise of Sentinel Prime, Orion Pax formed a group of rebels, which he called the Autobots to oppose the Decepticons. When Orion Pax became Optimus Prime, he convinced many neutral Cybertronians to join the Autobot army for the sake of defeating Megatron and returning peace to their kind. With both Autobots and Decepticons now having powerful leaders and large armies, the Last War between them broke out.

Wreckers
The Wreckers were a special task force, generally composed of the best and the toughest die-hard fighters around. Its ranks include mechs you've never heard much about, mostly because the Wreckers are often called in to fight when the odds of success are slim. Bluntly, they tend to burn through their roster at a frightening rate. The Wreckers are a close-knit group that's more concerned with bursting in, guns-blazing, and doing their thing, than they are concerned with, say, strategy. Despite their disregard for planning and the bodycount their team mounts, the Wreckers are amazingly successful. Although nowadays they're a shell of their former self, they still keep right to their code. After a fallout between Optimus and Impactor, the Wreckers became a sort of "splinter" sub-faction, though when needed they will still come and wreck n' rule.

Decepticons
A miner from Kaon going by the name Megatron, was an idealist who once sought to take down Sentinel Prime's oppressive ways through peaceful manners. But when he led an uprising in Kaon, taking the city and killing Sentinel everything changed. The Decepticons soon began spreading across the planet, recruiting new people and carrying out terrorist strikes in advance of their main assaults. Eventually they overthrew the Senate but the Autobots led by Optimus Prime rose up against them to try and stop their tyranny and terrorism but Megatron saw this as an attempt at dethroning him. Both factions locked in battle for eternity, fighting for control over Cybertron. That's how the Last Cybertronian War began.

Destructicons
Led by the unaligned and unforgiving bounty hunter - Scourge, the Destructicons are a band of hired guns and bounty hunters. If one faction places a bounty on a person, they'll be the guys that will track it down. They work for the one who pays the most. The Destructicons don't care about the war nor its purpose, as long as there is money to make, they'll partake in and do whatever necessary to gain what they have been promised. And if something isn't paid after their job has been done, the Destructicons won't take that kindly, especially Scourge.

Name: Optimus Prime
Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Autobot Leader
Bio: Born Orion Pax, the bot would eventually be known as Optimus Prime, is the courageous and awe-inspiring leader of the Autobots. Once a normal law officer, Prime has become a leading figure in the Decepticon Uprising and following war. As the first legitimate Prime in many ages, heir to the Matrix of Leadership, Optimus Prime is revered by many and reviled by some, but always a powerful presence, in or out of battle. On the battlefield he is a great commander and a very skilled soldier, in both, hand-to-hand combat and gunfight. When he is away from the battlefield he commands and rallies his soldiers, which he holds in high regard and respects deeply. When Megatron tore down the Senate, Optimus tried to reason with him and offered him peace but Megatron declined and took matters in his own hands. With what happened on that day and the many deaths the Decepticon caused, many sought help from Optimus and wanted to join his forces to free Cybertron from the Decepticon menace.

Name: Megatron
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Decepticon Leader
Bio: Megatron of Tarn was an inspiring miner who wanted to become a writer. As time progressed he became colder, seeing how cruel was the world around him. He hated the Senate and their pet, a mech going by the name of Sentinel and calling himself a Prime. One day he staged a riot and escaped to Kaon, where he joined an illegal underground gladiatorial fights. The games turned him more brutal and excessive and not soon after he took control of the whole operation. Megatron, now having enough people behind his back, took to the streets rallying people which he called his Decepticons. This ended with him entering the Senate and no one but him leaving it. Enraged by that Sentinel took it upon himself and tried to kill Megatron, only for him to get brutalized and decapitated. The Decepticon leader took his head and put it on a pike which he placed in front of the Senate building, showing cybertronians of all shapes and sizes that change is achievable. Many rejoiced and followed him into a new brighter future he promised them, others were disgusted and sought help from the small Autobot group that was just forming up.

Name: Cliffjumper
Appearance:

Spoiler: Old Design

Spoiler: New Design

Faction: Autobots
Function: Warrior
Bio: Cliffjumper is a crazy trigger-happy jerk with serious impulse-control problems. He’s also a dedicated hero and Autobot through and through. He likes big guns and explosives, whenever he’s on the battlefield his energon boils. Cliffjumper was one of the first to join the Autobot ranks and was ready to blow the ‘cons from day 1. He never liked Megatron nor his way of doing things, though he wasn’t on board with Optimus’ leadership at first too but that didn’t bother him as much as the Decepticons did.

Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: First Lieutenant
Bio: Starscream once tried for a senator but that didn’t work out as planned because he was accused of plagiarism and forgery and was kicked out. But his ambition drew him closer to the nascent Decepticon movement and catapulted him through the ranks as Cybertron collapsed into war. He’s intelligent fighter and good flier albeit with a lust for leadership. One of his greatest achievements was leading the Seekers – aerial squadron of Megatron’s best fliers. Starscream called them that because their job was to seek and destroy anything their master ordered. But his cunningness and intelligence led him even higher, leaving the position of Seeker leader to become Megatron’s First Lieutenant, his right hand man. Megatron trusts him even though Starscream is known to be a schemer.

Name: Laster
Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Field Medical Officer
Bio: Laster is intelligent and a good medic. He joined the Autobot ranks as the first two years raged on. At first he wanted to leave Cybertron behind but after seeing what the Decepticons are doing to his home planet he offered his intellect and skills to the Autobots. Optimus was surprised with what the mech had to offer and proposed he become a head of the science division but he declined wanting to be on the field. He suggested Optimus sent him on the battlefield to patch up fallen soldiers. He wasn’t much of a talker and didn’t want to go and work somewhere where talking is required. When you’re on the battlefield you run for your life or repair fallen bots, there’s no need to talk and he prefered just that.

Name: Dead End
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Scout
Bio: Dead End is always moody not because of people being around him, normally he works as a scout and spy, but because he isn’t really optimistic about the future or the cybertronian race in general. He didn’t want to join the war but his comrades talked him into doing it. He much prefers to stay out of harm’s way and let nature play its course. He doesn’t hate Megatron nor fear him, the same applies for Optimus too albeit with some disgust calling himself a “Prime”. Since he was once religious, he despises people calling themselves with sacred names when they aren’t religious at all.

Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Cavalier
Bio: Arrogant, rash, and believes his own press, Hot Rod may look like a rookie but he's as skilled as he is cocky. But beneath all of his cockiness lies a kind and caring spark. He's hotheaded and way to headstrong for his own good, sometimes his mouth is the reason for his survival. Hot Rod is full of charisma and optimism and when everything looks dark, he sees a light no matter how small it is.

Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Decepticon Transport
Bio: Astrotrain is a rare breed, rarely do you see a mech with two alt modes. That's because some sparks are more energized than others and this way they shape in an interesting and unusual way. He craves having this power and along with his size augmentation in alt mode, the ability to make him bigger, serves the Decepticons well. He's their go-to transport and this makes him feel valued.

Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Head of the Autobot Research Division
Bio: Scattershot is smart, smarter than most and because of that he made himself a valuable asset in the Autobot ranks. And because of his smarts he made Optimus put him in charge of the Autobot Research Division (ARD), which is the driving force of the Autobot forces, new developments are made every day and he prefers to stay as far from the battlefield as possible, in other words he likes it there even if it's war time. He's not really courageous but if he has to fight, he will (preferably with guns).

Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Decepticon General
Bio: Calling himself the "Herald of Death", Straxus is a ruthless religious fanatic that doesn't accept defeat nor treachery. Megatron respects his view and always sends him out to the battlefield as a commander, he trusts his judgment and Straxus makes sure his master is pleased. He is one of the Five Decepticon Generals – the highest ranking officers after the first lieutenant. After he has defeated his enemies, he always takes prisoners. He does that because he likes to torture them, making those poor souls pray for death. Straxus likes to hear their screams and prayers and that's why people fear him and would prefer to die on the battlefield rather than be captured by him.

Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Warrior
Bio: Once Grimlock of Iacon was a gladiator and fought alongside Megatron but one day he left as Megatron was preparing his uprising. He wandered across Cybertron until finally returning to Iacon to see it burning. This angered him and he went after Megatron alone. He faced the Decepticon overlord and tried to kill him but this led to him being left for dead, limbless. When he was found by two cybertronians, who turned out to be part of the Autobot rebellion, he was taken to Optimus Prime and was repaired. Optimus offered him a position within his ranks but Grimlock saw Optimus and his Autobots as weak and afraid to make tough calls. He'd prefer to send his troops to certain death if that will lead to victory but Optimus saw that as slaughter. He didn't really liked the Prime but since he was out of options he agreed and became part of the Autobot ranks just as it was shaping into an army.

Bio: He is the Autobots' communications officer and mini-casette tamer, a pretty chill guy to be honest. He can be found at the forefront of any situation in which he's involved, be it getting down and truly hopping to town, or kicking ass and taking names - both of which he does well. Blaster marches to his own beat, whether it's a pounding bassline or pounding Decepticon skulls, and he's not shy when it comes to sharing his feelings about either.

Function: Air Officer; Field Medic
Bio: Jetfire is a bot of science, literally. Not only is his mind dedicated towards scientific pursuits, but his body is a testament to the technology he studies so intensely. Every inch of his chassis is cutting-edge and kept up-to-date. It was not so long ago that he was a Decepticon, hence why he does not trust his teammates all that much. Jetfire is compassionate, so some Autobots feel that he could be soft on their enemies or, even worse, he may turn on them after realizing his "cold calculations" swing the other way.

Bio: The Autobots' medical officer, Ratchet has a dry wit, often giving his wounded comrades a hard time for taking hits he somehow avoids. With the Energon supplies becoming less and less, he works to find new ways to make do, and he'd really prefer if the Autobots didn't risk injury. Although he's a healer, Ratchet often finds himself on the front lines of combat and, on occasion, the last hope the Autobots have. These pressures are sometimes too much for him to handle, but Ratchet ultimately never gives up.

Name: Pyro
Appearance:

Faction: Autobot; Wrecker
Function: Soldier
Bio: Young Pyro is another in a proud tradition of selfless Autobot heroes. He is invariably on the front lines protecting the weak and helpless, and is so brave and steadfast as to be virtually immovable. He stands for truth, justice, and the freedom of all sentient beings. He commands a powerful multi-functional battlestation. And yes, he turns into a truck. These are all signs of the Primus apotheosis - a Cybertronian personality disorder that affects Autobots and even Decepticons. It is a particularly acute form of hero worship characterized by the obsessive need to specifically emulate Optimus Prime. Its major symptoms include the constant quoting of notable sayings by Prime, altering one's physical form to appear more similar to Prime, and sacrificing one's own life at the earliest opportunity for even the most remotely noble goal. Pyro keeps a list of "things left to do" as a follower of Prime. As of now it has only the truck part and some of Optimus' famous quotes. He's still new and fresh within the Wreckers' ranks and as the unspoken rule follows, he should be bullied by the OG members.

Bio: Bulkhead looks huge and menacing but is actually quite careless and gentle souled. Though he's no brainiac nor a fast runner, Bulkhead is one of the most sturdy members of the Wreckers. He's afraid of hurting things smaller and more fragile than him. For all his sweetness, he's still a Wrecker through and through. Yet despite participating in several major battles and campaigns, his past career has left some painful psychological scars. Being a part of the Autobots' black ops team means you have to do the dirty work, and Bulkhead's seen many horrors and friends meet a bad end.

Bio: An early flight-capable recruit to Megatron's Decepticon movement, Skywarp has spent millions of years in loyal service to the Decepticon cause, frequently putting his teleportation ability to use. He cares not for power, conquest, or battle. Knowledge is the one goal he has in his life. Others can fight the war themselves, as he is far more comfortable in the solitude of the workspace provided by Megatron. For the generous gift of peace and near unlimited time to research, he develops countless experimental weapons and tools for the Decepticons.

Bio: A genius chemist, Mixmaster serves as a weapons designer to the Decepticon elite. He has spent his entire lifespan mastering the intricacies of chemical reactions, becoming an expert in poisons, corrosive substances, and most especially explosives. He has a knack for improvisation, being able to make deadly concoctions from just the native materials a world has to offer. Watching Mixmaster prepare a new batch of materials is like seeing some mad alchemist at work, giggling and cackling over his creations with evil glee. It would be a stretch to call him a scientist; a better comparison would be to a witch throwing arcane scraps into her cauldron to complete a bubbling potion. His fellow Decepticons suspect Mixmaster of having a few wires loose in his logic center, but they can't argue with the results.

Bio: Sideways is the consummate con-artist. He is misleading and deceitful in everything he does, portraying himself as the ninja-like warrior or the aloof drifter, and he lives for the look of shock and betrayal on his victims' faces when they realize he's played them for fools. As he's pretty smart, Sideways prefers to team up with larger Decepticons in the battle against the Autobots. This way, his target-friendly companion takes all the heat. He joined both factions before joining the Destructicons, stealing information and delivering it to the other faction as a way to "show" them that he has betrayed the enemy and wants to switch sides. In reality he looks only for himself, that is until he came across Scourge, who after a beating or two, beat some sense into him and offered him a place within his ranks.

Name: Ruckus
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Combat Assault
Bio: One look at Ruckus is enough to make most bots think twice before picking a fight with him. Their reasoning is that someone so dented and disheveled but still functioning fine must be tough, and they're right. Ruckus is one of the meanest, loudest, toughest bots still online and has no issue standing out in the crowd. In addition to his incredibly loud voice, he looks like he just stepped off the battlefield because he usually has - and most likely, just won. He used to be smaller than he is now, but got built into his new form as a reward due to his valiant service while damaged. Now, Ruckus is willing to take any death defying risk if it aids the Decepticon cause, mainly because he doesn't care what type of damage he receives. He's only worried about victory and wears his dents like a badge of pride.

He's never one to gloat about his abilities, nor does he underestimate his enemy's. Though his abilities are held down by his below average firepower and strength.

The more attractive something is whether bot or building, he craves to see it destroyed by his hand. Even off the battlefield, Runabout is obsessive about seeking out things and bots to destroy. Analysts have summarized that terminating others gives him a feeling of power over death. Whatever the case, one thing is clear: the bigger the explosion that finishes someone or something off, the happier Runabout is.

His demeanor has made him few friends so no one knows the true reason he does this. Outback believes he’ll die in the war, so he refuses to waste time while he’s still functioning. He puts his entire commitment to the Autobot cause, he just follows it in his own way.

When Megatron started his uprising, he was promised that part of his old self will be returned but for that to be done he needed to build something the Decepticon leader called "gestalt". He provided him with a laboratory and all of Jhiaxus' available research. Shockwave agreed, now once more having a meaningful purpose in mind.

Appearance:
Inner Robot

Pretender Shell

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Soldier
Bio: A normal cybertronian turned soldier, Iguanus didn't have much of a choice. War was inevitable and when it came he embraced it. Sadly this costed him the lives of his fellow friends and family. Now alone with no one to care for, he has become an emotionless soldier, fighting on the frontline, waiting his final moments to come and for death to embrace him.

Name: Thundercracker
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Seeker Leader
Bio: Thundercracker sees himself as a superior soldier and the best Seeker. He was really pleased when Starscream gave him the position of Seeker Leader. He loves being in the skies, striking every Autobot who's down on the ground. For him the skies are like a second home, a place where he feels at his best. He's cunning and dangerous, sometimes even more than the Seekers’ previous leader.

Name: Braver
Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Soldier
Bio: Braver of Rodion was once a police officer who served under a bot named Orion Pax. When the war broke out that bot became Optimus Prime and Braver joined, following his old chief's advice. He is strong and capable warrior, who prefers to go out and fight instead of staying put and doing absolutely nothing of any importance.

Name: Stakeout
Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Soldier
Bio: Following in Ultra Magnus' steps, Stakeout wants to be the next by-the-book person but his happy-go-lucky attitude restrains him from achieving his goal. In all honesty he's not that good on the battlefield, he's better behind the scenes, thinking, planning, preparing the Autobot army's next move. Sadly for him, he's put on the frontline, fending for his own life, hoping that tomorrow will be better.

Name: Blades
Appearance:

Faction: Autobots
Function: Air Recon
Bio: Dirty, underhanded street brawler is what describes best Blades. He doesn't go around fighting for the Autobot cause nor for any cause for that matter, he fights for answers. The truth is he doesn't remember much, only his oldest friend First Aid. Something happened and he now doesn't remember almost anything. He knows that a war is raging on and that he joined a faction called the Autobots.

Name: Blitzwing
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Aerial and On-Ground Soldier
Bio: Born or made into a soldier doesn't really matter for Blitzwing because his past's behind him, what matters now is war and he'll fight no matter the cost. He'll fight to survive and to win, listening and obeying Megatron's every order. He's a triple changer, being able to transform from tank to plane, using this ability he's become a valuable asset on the battlefield. When he's around Autobots run for their lives because a missile barrage is what will follow when he's around.

Name: Ratbat
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticons
Function: Fuel Scout
Bio: Cold-blooded and obsessed with efficiency, Ratbat's primary concern is looking out for himself and finding a new body in which he'll become whole again. Once he was a Senator, with Soundwave by his side but one day he woke up in a different body, one of a cassette bot. He accused Soundwave of tempering with his body but in reality it wasn't Soundwave but someone else. The blue mech only found him much later and brought him in, within the Decepticon ranks. His role as fuel scout, Ratbat carries sensors that allow him to detect and evaluate the quality of fuels of various types, from primitive hydrocarbons to Energon.

Name: Brawn
Appearance:

Faction: Autobot
Function: Sniper; Scout
Bio: Brawn, the Autobots' crackshot sniper, is amazingly strong for his size. His attitude and personallity leaves much to be desired but that's what you get if you want to have the best of the best within your ranks. Even though he is cold and prefers working alone, he does what he's told and he does it as wanted. Be it an assassination, a recon, or just plain and simple gun fight, he'll do it with little questions and with the desired outcome.

Name: Prowl
Appearance:

Faction: Autobot
Function: Military Strategist
Bio: Prowl is the Autobot military strategist. Prowl is quiet, competent, loyal, and possessed of almost endless patience. He really doesn't tend to get along well with his fellow Autobots, many of whom find his strict adherence to military protocol stifling, and his uptight personality sure doesn't help matters. He does not react well to the unexpected, to the point that it can literally scramble his cerebral circuits. Since Prowl believes in thought over violence, his body doesn't contain much weaponry. Though he does have a few weak laser guns built into his frame, the vast majority of his systems are devoted to computing power. Because of this, the Autobot Commander Optimus Prime often relies on him for guidance and advice.

Name: Lightspeed
Appearance:

Faction: Autobot
Function: Data Processor
Bio: Looking in from the outside, you'd think Lightspeed had it all: He's highly intelligent, strong, fast, and considered dashingly good-looking by Transformers standards. And if any of that mattered to him at all, he'd be golden. As it is, he knows the necessary resources are more valuable elsewhere and so puts his energy into winning the war than making his dream, exploring the stars away from any sentient organism, a possibility. His dreams tend to distract him from his current function as a data processor.

Name: Jazz
Appearance:

Faction: Autobot
Function: Special Operations Head
Bio: First Lieutenant Jazz is one happy-go-lucky Autobot. Good-natured and always able to take things in stride, he provides a stark contrast to the more serious demeanor of Star Saber or Optimus Prime himself. Unlike Prowl, Jazz responds well to change and improvisation. His position as Special Operations head calls for all the skills he possesses, yet he still has time to add some style to everything he does. He often butts heads with Prowl and his pricky behaviour, they're often referred as "fire and ice" of the Autobot ranks.

Name: Sandstorm
Appearance:

Faction: Ex-Autobot; Wrecker
Function: Gunman
Bio: Sandstorm was designed to spend long periods of time in the most harsh and forbidding environments imaginable.He gets bored easily, and has a very hard time concentrating on humdrum tasks. He craves excitement that's why he goes in for fighting the Decepticons. The ever-present threat of deactivation or crippling doesn't frighten him, but he does fear that the war might end any chance for him to enjoy life. For Sandstorm, war may not be heaven, but it's a hell of an adventure. He joined the Wreckers when they were led by Blocker but as the war raged on, the team was disbanded and everyone was sent on the frontline. This really angered him and he became more cruel and unfogiving and when things escalated with Overlord during Toraxxis, the Wreckers were formed once again. This time led by Impactor, he chose to join them once more but abandoning the Autobot way in the process. He no more was to obey Optimus Prime and his merry band of posers and wannabe leaders.

Name: Hook
Appearance:

Faction: Decepticon
Function: Engineer
Bio: The snob of the Constructicons, Hook considers himself an artist. He looks upon the rest of the Decepticons almost as peasants, beneath him to a degree. Though full of himself, Hook is a master craftsman, having truly earned his insufferable ego. His high standards that he holds himself and others to means he takes extra care to ensure even the most simple of jobs is completed to the nth degree of perfection. Although Megatron acknowledges Hook's incredible skill, he gets impatient with the time it takes Hook to finish his work.

Name: Oilmaster
Appearance: Pretender Shell and Inner Robot

Faction: Destructicon
Function: Crazed Murderer
Bio: Oilmaster is one of the Decepticons' most feared bounty hunters! Acidic oil pumps and flows from his every orifice. He has anger issues, being tormented and turned into a monsterous Pretender creature by the Decepticons' own mad scientist - Shockwave. He was an experiment with the aim of weaponizing the Pretender shell, thus giving him the ability to spill acid from his armor, without damaging the shell or the robot within. The experimenting resulted in the soldier known as Oilmaster to go on a rampage, killing over 100 Decepticons soldiers. He dissappeared in the Cybertronian wastes, never to be seen again. Until found by the misterious fabeled Bounty Hunter - Scourge and his troop of Bounty Hunters and Scoundrels, the Destructicons.

Name: Road Rage
Appearance:

Faction: Destructicon
Function: Assassin
Bio: Road Rage is a bounty hunter with a difference. She is well-versed in alien cultures and generally cheerful, making her a very good diplomat. However, a chronic short-out in her vehicle mode causes her to live up to her name; in car mode, she is a snarling, swerving speed machine with little regard—if not utter contempt - for anyone else on the road with her. This is pretty embarrassing for her once she reverts to robot mode. To help her in her quest, she has Trilenial sensors, allowing her to detect when her quarry is armed. She joined Scourge's group by the time the riots ended and it turned into a fully fledged war. She, along with him, dissapeared into the shadows, recruiting more people to their cause, some for money, others for shelter and some for their own personal reasons.
