Starscream

Starscream is the loyal Second-In-Command of the Decepticons, previously of the Star Seekers, now a malicious Decepticon out for the glory of his faction by any means necessary, even if it means risking the lives of those he considers 'friends'. 
== Information ==
=== Role ===
Starscream is the second-in-command of the Decepticons, and when Megatron is not around, he acts as the leader. Of course, this is never permanent as "Even in death there is no command but mine." He is capable in this role as well, though not likely to fight or brawl like Megatron would, he acts with more cunning and intelligence.
=== Powers and Abilities ===
Starscream is equipped with missiles, his main weapon, and he usually has an unlimited amount, though they do require reload. He is also agile and faster than even Soundwave who he actually works well with.
He is known for his 'tactical retreats', however, and he can leave his own troops behind, though it is understandable in some ways, especially as he is vital to the war effort. He is also just a naturally skilled military commander.
== History ==
=== Before the War ===
Starscream, like Soundwave, was of the higher caste, being the air commander of Iacon's Star Seekers and proving his worth elsewhere. Starscream started talking to Megatronus after he left the Pits of Kaon and promised to join the leader, granted he was given high command for his achievements. This was agreed and Starscream would take place in the attack on the council.
=== During the War ===
He took part in the Battle of Iacon, both sides knowing full well that would be the last battle of the war. He, alongside the seekers, chased after the Ark and attempted to stop it crossing the Spacebridge. He was intercepted by Air Raid, though he fought back and told her she was to late and that the seekers were already after the Ark under Thundercracker. However, Megatron would die in the battle, thrown down a chasm and Starscream would assume temporary command, leading to the Cons to Earth.
He was seen on the bridge with Soundwave, the slender con showing him of a life signal from Cybertron. He commanded the energon miners to begin work but Soundwave refused, indicating Shockwave had the resources. They went to the lab where he and Shockwave discussed the possibility of Megatron surviving and how much energon would be needed for the leaders revival. Shockwave mentioned how Megatron wanted a synthetic and dark energon formula, though purifying enough Dark Energon would take time they didn't have, according to Starscream who demanded that when they have enough that the incomplete and unstable Dark Energon was used instead, despite Shockwave mentioning the risks. 
He then commanded Blackout to scout and find the Autobot base, unaware that Soundwave was already on it and had his own plan.
== Trivia ==
- This version of Starscream is one of the only incarnations to truly believe in Megatron's cause and serve him faithfully, though we don't know how long he's remained this way.
