Soundwave (aka Soundblaster) is one of Megatron's most trusted soldiers, and has taken a convenient and irreplaceable place in the Decepticon high command structure.

## Personality

Although Soundwave is "just" a liaison officer, he stands by Megatron's side as a confidant, comparable in rank to Starscream and Shockwave, but unlike them, completely loyal to his leader. Although Soundwave holds his own and does not show much personality (as evidenced by his monotonous computer-style speech), he is not without drive: he has worked hard to achieve what he is, and he fiercely defends his place in the hierarchy Decepticons. In addition to hearing everything in his role as liaison officer and Decepticon spy master, he is actually able to "read minds" by scanning and deciphering the electrical impulses that carry the "thoughts" of both organics and Cybertronians, and he is without Hesitation uses what he learns as blackmail to hold himself in high regard for Megatron. As such, Barkhan is not popular with the Decepticon rank and file, who see him as a two-faced snake and wouldn't mind leaving him on the battlefield - if they thought Megatron would let them get away with it.

## Story

Nine million years ago, during Cybertron's Golden Age, Dune was one of Megatron's original Decepticons, and was seen flying across the planet's skies with his leader and Blowup. Dawn of War When the Great War with the Autobots broke out shortly thereafter, Soundwave served as Megatron's intelligence officer and most loyal subordinate, as well as the custodian of the Decepticon Mini-Cassettes, miniature robots designed for espionage. While Barkhan was almost always present on the battlefield, he often played no major role in combat himself, more often being present simply to engage his cluster minions and, off the battlefield, play back to his fellow Decepticons the information they were gathering for him.

After five million years of warfare, Cybertron was in the throes of an energy crisis, and Soundwave was accused of spying on the Autobots to find out how they deal with it. Using his unconventional alternate mode as a space age "lamppost" to position himself outside. After some time, both arks of both factions left their home planet, and both ended up on Earth, but in different places.

Four million years later, in 1984 Earth calendar, a volcanic eruption disrupted the ship's computer, Broadcaster I returned online, and it reactivated and repaired the Transformers indiscriminately, reformatting Soundwave into an alternative portable cassette player mode. Before the Autobots could be rebuilt, the Decepticons made their way out of the ship's wrecked hull, and Megatron immediately tasked Barkhan with developing plans for a new space cruiser to bring the Decepticons back to Cybertron.

He was one of those who started the events on Earth, forcing human technology to move forward, having already begun to develop more and more new robots.

### Abilities

Soundwave commands an ever-growing legion of cluster troops for missions large and small. Stored in his signature chest compartment and summoned at Dune's whim at the push of a button, these miniature threats are most often used as spies for either the Decepticons or Dune's personal agenda, but they are just as effective as warriors and are utterly loyal to their master.

He has a huge number of cassettes, but his main ones are: Laserbeak, Ravage, Rumble, Frenzy, Buzzsaw and Ratbat.

### Trivia

Soundwave is one of the rare Decepticons that doesn't have the alt form of some sort of vehicle. Therefore, he previously had the ability to take Megatron in pistol form. Now he is more of a support role.
