Unicron

Nightbird was a member of the Terrorcons. She the ultimate assassin, with an alarming aptitude for slaying her marks. While the other Terrorcons are brutish and intimidating in their methods, what makes Nightbird such a genuinely chilling foe is her effortless expertise. She faithfully serves Scourge and exists only to execute her bloodthirsty team's terrible objectives with lethal power and purpose. While she is more measured than the Terrorcon leader in her approach, she is every bit as dangerous in her execution.

She fights and moves with perfect efficiency. This Terrorcon firmly believes that once the objective has been achieved, the battle is won. For her, anything else is just wasted effort.

History

Nightbird landed in New York City in 1994 alongside Scourge and Battletrap to hunt for the Transwarp Key, under orders from their master, Unicron. She engaged the Autobot group of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Mirage and Arcee on Ellis Island, surprising Mirage with her ability to fly using rocket thrusters. The Autobots' lack of effective resistance disappointed her, having hoped they'd be more of a challenge. Her desire for a good fight was almost answered when Airazor arrived, but Scourge ordered their retreat, having gotten the Key and seeing no need to waste time in summoning Unicron. She was present when Scourge mentally communicated with Unicron, and watched when the latter started torturing him for only retrieving one half of the key.

Travelling to Peru, she and the other Terrorcons observed as the Autobots' human allies Noah Diaz and Elena Wallace attempted to locate the half of the key hidden underground. They gave chase to Mirage and Optimus up the mountain roads once the humans began fleeing from a Freezer, believing them to be in possession of they key half (in actuality, their search had been fruitless). In the chaos, Scourge fought Optimus, while Nightbird and Battletrap handled the other Autobots. She attempted to run Mirage of the road, but was knocked off the mountain by an avalanche triggered by Arcee and Wheeljack's confrontation with Battletrap. After Airazor destroyed the bridge between Optimus Prime and Scourge, breaking up the fight, Nightbird noted that the Autobots were fleeing, only for her leader to inform her they wouldn't get away so easily due the corruption he had inflicted upon Airazor.

She was present when Scourge activated the Transwarp Key, generating the structure to open a portal to summon Unicron. During the attack on the bridge by the combined forces of the Autobots and Maximals, she fought to keep them from the Key itself. At one point she swept Noah up and dragged him into the sky, but a hasty spear throw from Cheetor hit her and forced her to release her captive. She and a horde of Freezers had Noah cornered to the edge of a lava pool, however, preparing to move in for the kill... but that was when Bumblebee was airdropped in by Stratosphere after his resurrection, firing off a barrage of blasts her way from above that decimated the Freezers backing her up and allowed Noah to rejoin the battle. Angered, she flew straight up at the Autobot scout to attack him, but this proved to be her undoing. Latching onto her airborne form, Bumblebee used her as a robot shield to protect himself from Scourge's blasts; the Terrorcon leader seemingly uncaring about his subordinate's own life. He then proceeded to rip one of her wings off and jam it into her spark mid-flight, and the resulting explosion reduced her to nothing more than a shower of broken parts, with her swords being the only remnants that remained intact.

She seems cold but deep down she is broken and just wants to be free from Unicron..
