Sky Shadow's Crew

Bacchus is a former member of the Decepticons, and Sky Shadow's second-in-command

## Official Bio

*Bacchus the Azure was once Sky Shadow's second-in-command and closest confident, always there whenever his friend needed to talk or required a babysitter at short notice. Often acting as a voice of reason, he was one the one who told Sky Shadow the thing he didn't want to hear. These days, he's pulling some old favors to look for his former boss, who has been missing for a number of months. With his past preventing him from going to a the authorities, Bacchus has only his wits, his pistols and a pair of work colleagues to help him in his search.*

## History

A member of Sky Shadow's gang, Bacchus acted as Sky Shadow's second-in-command. The two became trusted allies, to the point that Sky Shadow named Bacchus the godfather of his daughter, Lightbright.

At some point, Bacchus joined Sky Shadow in attending a series of gladiatorial matches, alongside many other people of power. Here, they witnessed Megatron make his first speech to rally them to together, forming the Decepticons. Sky Shadow would ultimately reach the rank of sectmaster, and make Bacchus his second-in-command. However, many years later, when Sky Shadow went missing after expressing doubts in the Decepticons, Bacchus left the Decepicons, taking his fellow sect members Dreadnaught and Ominus with him. The group would search for nearly a year, with little success. Finally, however, Dreadnaught was able to track down Sky Shadow to Karst. While sending Ominus to extract Lightbright from Acadeimos, due to the genetic locks used on the Decepticons' stasis pods, Bacchus set about recruiting aid for their mission, hiring Flywheels, Turbomaster, Slizardo and Roughstuff to aid them.

In The Desert Train, aboard Roughstuff's ship, when Dreadnaught thwarted Lightbright's attempt to escape, Bacchus calmed things down, and introduced the rest of the crew. After finding Slizardo scaring Thunderhoof, who Ominus had confusedly also grabbed. After briefing the group, they snuck aboard the Galvan Alliance train they believed the Decepticons to be hiding their prisoners aboard. As they snuck through the crawler-train, they were cut off by the Decepticons, and Bacchus as trapped alongside Lightbright, Slizardo and Flywheels. The group came face-to-face with Sixshot, and his underlings, Skywarp and Dirge. After destroying their transport to prove a point, Sixshot pointed his weapon at Sky Shadow, threatening to kill him if Bacchus and his crew stepped out of line. When Sixshot mentioned they might be able to use Lightbright as leverage to get Sky Shadow on side again, Bacchus angrily rushed Sixshot, only to be easily stopped by the sixchanger. As Sixshot attempted to execute Bacchus, the train was ripped apart by an explosion caused by fighting between the other Cybertronians, Decepticons and Plumbers, sending everyone flying. Managing to find Lightbright in the wreckage, the pair came under fire from Sixshot. During the fighting, Lightbright was knocked away by Sixshot, causing her to land on Sixshot's stasis pod. This release Sky Shadow in time for him to protect his daughter. As the Decepticon's fled, Bacchus reunited with Sky Shadow, and they returned to Cybertron. As they prepared to return to Helex, Bacchus asked if Sky Shadow was coming with them, to which Sky Shadow replied that he wanted to spend some time with his daughter.
