Perceptor is a major character in Transformers Loud, introduced in the third season. He's one of the founding members of the Autobot Resistence, acting as the group's chief science officer and the commanding officer of a small detachment that settled on the planet Zamojin.

## Personality

Perceptor is one of the most astute minds the whole of Cybertron can offer. He is perpetually seeking to increase knowledge, and his discoveries have repeatedly proven invaluable. Though his specialties lie in metallurgy, electrical engineering, and additional sciences closely concomitant to Transformer physiology, his thirst for knowledge has made him a kind of scientific jack-of-all-trades. No step in his scientific process is skipped, no data unanalyzed, no hazard not prepared for. This doesn't mean he's not capable of acting on impulse should the need arise however; in fact, he's willing to take tremendous personal risk if the situation warrants.

One of his most infamous mannerisms is his tendency to engage in verbal communication using scientific terminology. This has the unforeseen result of exasperating and occasionally frustrating his comrades. One might hypothesize that the jovial mechanoid is unaware that not everyone with whom he seeks to communicate shares his extensive vocabulary.

Engaging in physical melee is not his preferred activity. Percy is more than content to make his contributions to the Autobot cause in the manner in which he deems sufficient, an attitude which earns him the ire of some of his more battle-hungry comrades, but will engage in combat if the situation requires. What he lacks in strength, he makes up for in intelligence and endurance, never hesitating to jump into a fight in aid of a fallen comrade. He has been known to outwit many Destrons in battle and has proven to be an extremely valuable Autobot in the war with their oppressors, with some of the Destron higher-ups even warning their warriors never to underestimate the old "crack-pot". Percy's devotion to the Autobot cause and his loyalty to his teammates make him one of Magnus's most trusted soldiers.

## History

### Escape from Cybertron

Perceptor was one of the many Autobots that managed to escape from the planet when Magnus called for an evacuation. His ship consisted of a six-man squad - himself included - and they settled on the planet Zamojin. They would remain hidden on the planet for the next eighteen Stellar Cycles, where they would use most of their time (well, most of them, at least) trying to develop weapons and other chemical "things" to aid in the rebellion's eventual regrouping efforts. "Perce" in particular chose to develop a chemical coating that he called "corrostop" that would make their weaponry & vehicles indestructible.

## Notes

Perceptor is given his enlarged viewfinder in place of one of his eyes from his IDW incarnation, since it just fits really well with his character.

Perceptor and Brawn's dynamic is based off of their spotlight episode together in the original cartoon, Microbots.
