Megatron TFP

During the Golden Age of Cybertron, "Megatronus" (as Megatron named himself in honor of Megatronus Prime) was a bold, fearless, and a great gladiator among other Cybertronians, fighting in Kaon. Megatron observed the inequality of freedom among his race, the corrupt and all-powerful ruling class, and became a rhetorician in an effort to change this. While sketching other Cybertronians, Megatron inspired a clerk in the Hall of Records named Orion Pax, and the two joined forces to end corruption and achieve equality for all. Orion and Megatron developed a close friendship, almost like brothers. Megatronus saw fit to shorten his name to "Megatron" before presenting his vision to the Autobot High Council. This revealed his true nature: he arrogantly demanded that the Council recognize violence as a necessary element of society, threatened to overthrow them, and declared his desire to become the next Prime. However, Orion Pax did not believe in violence and convinced the Council of his rightness. His own jealousy and unfulfilled desires led Megatron to sever ties with the Council and his old friend Orion, causing them to side with his followers and unleash a war on Cybertron, fueled by Megatron's anger and his search for the Matrix of Leadership. Throughout the series, Megatron was cunning, cruel, selfish, and sadistic. Megatron sought power above all else and eliminated anyone who stood in his way, such as Silas, Airachnid, and Predaking. He also disliked retreating in battle, likely due to his past as a gladiator on Kaon. However, inside, Megatron was lost, betrayed, and alone.

Original robot mode Megatron was a large Cybertronian, a head taller than Optimus Prime. He had large feet with three claw-like toes: two in front and one on the heel. His toes had sharp nails at the tips. His skin was silver, with a dark purple underneath. His eyes were originally blue, but turned red when the Cybertronian High Council denied him the right to leadership, and Orion Pax "stole" that opportunity from him. His optics turned a blood-red hue from rage and immense contempt. He has a rather long and flat head, which Bulkhead often refers to as "bucket-shaped." Two blade-like plates are located on each side of his cheeks. His face is marked by scars and a sinister smile. On his shoulders are two spiked plates. His right hand holds a powerful thermonuclear cannon, as well as a long blade, which he has used repeatedly since his gladiatorial career. On his chest is the Decepticon emblem. He sometimes wears reading glasses due to his poor eyesight, or myopia.

Cybertronian Jet Mode: Due to Megatron's disrespect for humanity, he considered using their vehicles for transformation a betrayal and used something similar to a Cybertronian jet engine. As a result, Megatron's legs transformed into wings, and his fusion cannon appeared on top. Interestingly, Megatron can fire from his wings, not his fusion cannon.

Armament: A proton-plasma cannon is on the right hand, and a not very long sword comes out of the left hand.

Abilities/Strengths/Defenses: The ability to fly in any conditions. The intellectual qualities of a leader and organizer. A lack of moral compunction, which allows him to trade his fighters like pawns for more powerful pieces. Strong armor.

Weaknesses: Excessive irascibility and loss of self-control lead to tragic consequences for both him and the army. The gun's poor accuracy at ranges beyond 10 kilometers. Difficulty concealing it. Vulnerable segments: elbow and knee joints, abdominal plates immediately below the powerful chest sector.
