private to myself

Starscream was an Air Commander of the Energon Seekers, Cybertron's finest air warriors. His dream was to recover the Matrix of Leadership and become the Prime that would return the Transformers to the Golden Age, and he saw opportunity with the rebel upstart Megatron. A patient and polite schemer, Starscream used to wish Megatron would drop the heroic anti-caste charade and be more honest about his lust for power.

These days, he alternatively wishes Megatron would stop being obsessed with his lust for power and chafes under having to work for such a madman. While he serves as Megatron's right-hand man, he constantly looks for a way to become the commander himself and Megatron knows it: Starscream's extremely volatile personality means he is not adept at hiding his true intent. Fortunately for Megatron, Starscream is prone to panic, cowardice and bombastic gestures, meaning that it'd take exceptional circumstances for Starscream to actually manage to get behind him to shove the knife in.

A scientist by nature, with a more upperclass air, Thundercracker stands out among his fellow Decepticons in being a fairly calm and level-headed fellow. He believes in the cause, even if he's not enthusiastic about certain of Megatron's methods. Lacking the endless ambition of Starscream and the cruel thuggery of Skywarp, he displays little malice towards his enemies and takes no joy from battle. For Thundercracker, conflict is simply applied physics and chemistry, nothing more than the redirection of forces and energy towards the desired target... his foes.

One of the Seekers, Skywarp isn't exactly the most professional Decepticon around. He's immature, stubborn, and prone to insults (giving less-than-witty ones and receiving ones he doesn't even notice, sometimes from himself). Thanks to these traits, and his tendency to muck around when unsupervised, he rarely puts his cloaking and teleportation abilities to good use on the battlefield. However, thanks to a mandatory course of Circuit-Su training, he's become a bit more disciplined, giving him the focus needed to perform vicious sneak-attacks on unsuspecting Autobots on flights of stairs.

Despite his intelligence, data gathering skills, and potential charisma, Acid Storm prefers to wallow in anonymity as just the leader of the Rainmakers, a cadre of specialized Seekers who have the capability to manipulate localized weather patterns to create acid rain.

Acid storm hangs with his bud Sunstorm whenever he can, hes picked on by other bots sometimes because of the last part of his name, as to whether its Storm or Rain.

he personally cant decide himself.

Sunstorm is a clone of Starscream but in body and power only his body can go blazing if he gets pissed offed.

bright colors are nature's way of saying "Do not touch", then nature's got nothin' on SUNSTORM. Come too close, and circuits will short, steel housing will begin to mealt, and payches will break as the mind struggles to comprehend.

most of the time Sunny side up and crackin' a joke, Sunstorm hangs with Acid storm and Nova storm most of the time.

he is the leader of the Painmakers. Sometimes, Sunstorm merely believes he is secretly some kind of supernatural being, keeping most his comrades away with his odd behavior.

Dirge is a master of using fear as a weapon. Mournful, morose, and silent, his behavior gives even close comrades like Ramjet the creeps. Dirge actively cultivates this atmosphere; his engines are even tuned to generate fear in all who hear them. Few realize, however, that this need to instill fear is part of an overwhelming need for control over his own situation. Should things spiral out of control, Dirge falls victim to paralyzing fear himself and his usefulness as a warrior vanishes.

Ramjet is one of Megatron's more brutal aerial warriors. He maintains his air supremacy by taking his name literally — there isn't room in the air for anyone else in his view, and anyone who tries to intrude in his airspace will find themselves knocked right out of the sky. As on the air, so he is on the ground — Ramjet carries a massive hammer around with him which he uses to administer a blunt force trauma to anyone who gets in his way.

Thrust wants you to know he's coming. (Let's ignore the double-double entendre that comes from that.) The other Decepticons have learned there's no being sneaky when he's around. He's a loud-mouthed braggart who will claim victory before he's even taken the field. He tries to terrify and demoralize the enemy with loud rumbling roars from his engines and boasts from his vocal circuits. The truth is that Thrust is mostly bluster with little to back it up. Any sort of strong resistance can send him flying back the way he came.

Depth Charge a split-Spark twin of Skyquake, was the captain of an army of Seekers, and is an expert in explosives. Like Skyquake, Depth Charge is intensely loyal to Megatron, though his loyalty to his twin may be stronger. However, unlike his brother, Depth Charge is better at keeping his temper in check, most of the time.

In addition to his calculating tactics, cool-minded leadership, and fierce loyalty, Depth Charge has outwardly shown a sense of integrity not normally characterized by the Decepticon agenda. During situations of dwindling odds, Depth Charge considers all possibilities within battle, and is wary of the potential consequences of hasty decisions. He will even fight alongside the Autobots if surviving the situation calls for it. In order to secure a favorable outcome or the welfare of his sovereign lord, the dreaded seeker will save face, or indeed the sparks of a few Autobots, if it means a clean victory and living to battle another day...

Skyquake's loyalties are unlikely to be questioned anytime soon. A Decepticon guardian sent to protect Earth's energon stocks, he is completely loyal to Galvatron. He will not only obey every order, he will follow them until Galvatron says otherwise, regardless of the passage of time. He also possesses a rather short temper towards the disloyal, and is not beyond backhanding even a superior officer who gets in the way of Galvatron's will.

His split-Spark twin brother is the similarly honor-bound Depth Charge. The two are able to sense each other, even across the galaxy.

Nova storm dose not care for much, all he likes to is fire his missiles at autobots,He and Brawl would get along.

He sucks at being in command and would rather be told what to do, as long as it involves explosions.

A master of electricity, Elctrostorm dark desires put this skill to use on his victims, victims. Nothing delights him more than to see how they squirm from his touch.

member of the Rainmakers.

Hydrostorm is as smart as he is dangerous,

He will always make the saving throw, blow or hit.

Despite His terrible reputation in these last days he has a soft spot for a sad backstory, while his is unkown it rumored to be very horrific.

Bitstream is, you might say, one of the Decepticon L33T. He's a genius in his role as Information Engineer and brings to the table a skill set that can hack any target, nuke any system, and break any encryption you need broken. His greatest skill is also his biggest weakness, as he can lose himself in computer systems and virtual worlds to the point where he can't keep track of what is simulated computer space and what is reality. It doesn't make much difference to him, he's just as at home fragging Autobot jets or Autobot hard drives.

member of the Painmakers

He likes to take off one of his arm guns and hold it rifle style. Just how he rolls.

Hotlink is a "Mechatronic Engineer" by trade but a gadget geek at heart. You'll never find him without his tool kit, and he's always ready to tinker up a new device to fit the needs of the moment. It's an affinity that transcends even Autobot or Decepticon factions for him. He'll be just as quick to geek out over an awesome Autobot weapon as one from his own team. And just as quick to "improve" it for his own enjoyment.

member of the Painmakers

His favorite creation of his own is the pyropathic flamethrower. The kids love that one.

if Redwing hadn't become embroiled in the war with the Autobots, he'd probably be breaking kneecaps and shaking down deadbeats for loan sharks. A simple bot at heart, Redwing's perfectly content to help Starscream rebuild his operations on Equestria. After all, he's not too picky about whom he takes orders from, as long as those orders involve hurting people.

Firestrike is a constantly sunny and smiling optimist. He's determined to see the bright side in everything, especially when there is no bright side. It's his mission in life to bring happiness and laughter to everyone, even if he has to use his emotion-controlling ability to force his enemies into it. His fellow Seekers find it all just a little bit disturbing.

Sandstorm is one of the founding members of the Seekers. Cold and somber, Sandstorm hates those who claim to have "character" and perfect principles, and as such, he really loathes Autobots of all shapes and sizes.

When Starscream and the other standard Seekers just aren't enough, call in the Air Warriors. Sometimes they're explicitly drones and sometimes they're just quietly single-minded, depending on what they are made from. But they're always obedient, determined, and ruthless.
