Autobots

Optimus Prime

Optimus is a relatively naive and idealistic young leader, prone to long-winded inspirational speeches who leads a small and inexperienced Autobot space bridge maintenance team. Recently, his crew has landed on Earth, adopted jobs as semi-official superheroes and currently live in an abandoned Sumdac Systems warehouse.

Ratchet

Ratchet was a civilian mechanic, and one of the best on all of Cybertron. After the war, he got himself placed in a dead end position of repairing space bridges, seeing it as a chance to get away from what he had experienced. His main "weapons" are two electromagnets that can extend from his forearms. With them, he can move metal-based objects, levitate downward from high heights, manipulate or tear apart metallic objects in midair, or create magnetic shields.

Bumble Bee

Bumblebee is the youngest, yellowest, and most energetic of the Autobots. A hyperactive wisecracker, Bumblebee is quite convinced he's the fastest and coolest on four wheels. He does not take well to being called short, and his over-eager ways can get on nerves.

Bulkhead

Bulkhead is the biggest and strongest of Optimus Prime's crew. He joined the Autobot academy to achieve the lofty goal of becoming a lowly space bridge technician rather than a warrior. He also has an unfortunate tendency to break stuff by accident due to his sheer strength and natural clumsiness. He's wrecked major thoroughfares and toppled skyscrapers in his zeal to be helpful when he gets angry, he's capable of berserker charges that even the Dinobots have learned to respect and fear.

Prowl

Prowl is a loner at heart, he has little interest in teamwork, something Optimus Prime finds extremely frustrating. Prowl uses an array of throwing weapons, such as cutting discs, that he can hurl with high accuracy. While useful as projectiles, these weapons tend to be far more damaging at close range and will occasionally bounce off their target with little damage if thrown from too great a distance. He can project holograms of himself, using them to misdirect his enemies. He also has a jetpack, granting him limited flight.

Megatron

Megatron sees himself as a freedom fighter, leading the Decepticons out of the days of "Autobot tyranny". Megatron demands loyalty from the Decepticons, loyalty he gains by his awe-inspiring power. With the combined threat of a sharp mind, his fusion cannon, a pair of deadly swords and simple brute strength. The loss of his body and former power was only a minor setback for him, as Megatron proved a master manipulator. He effortlessly duped Isaac Sumdac into helping him and once Megatron was restored to full power, he turned the tables on his old captor.

Starscream

Starscream transforms into a red and silver harrier jet, and like most incarnations of the character he is a scheming traitor whose main goal in life is to overthrow Megatron as the Decepticon leader. His weapons can demolish large buildings, and he can fly around so fast that he can break free of Ratchet's magnetic powers.

Lugnut

Lugnut is a large, hulking Decepticon who transforms into a purple military bomber plane and has immense physical strength. He is fanatically devoted to Megatron, agreeing with everything he says and regarding any Decepticon who questions or doubts him as a traitor. He is shown to be enemies with the Autobot Bulkhead.

Blitzwing

Blitzwing is a triple-changer, able to transform into two different vehicle modes, a fighter jet and an assault tank. He also has a split personality represented by three different faces which spin around. Blitzwing's armament varies depending upon which personality is dominant at the time. His calculating personality has an arsenal of ice weaponry, while the Hothead predictably can turn up the heat. When his third personality is foremost, nearly anything can be dished out from either of his vehicle modes.

Shockwave

kwave is a Decepticon spy and double-agent who poses as an Autobot named Longarm Prime with his mission being to sabotage Autobot Elite Guard operations on Cybertron. As Longarm Prime, Shockwave transforms into a construction crane, and when out of his disguise his vehicle mode is a tank. In both forms, he has the unique ability to stretch his arms and legs to great lengths.

Captain Carmine Fanzone
