Name: Shockwave

Continuity: Dreamwave G1

Removal Point: After being informed Starscream jettisoned Megatron into space

Alternate Mode: Space Gun

Function: Military Operations Commander

Quote: "Clarity of thought before rashness of action."

Tech Spec

Cold, brutal, scientific approach to war. Seeks to overthrow Megatron as leader of Decepticons because he believes logic says he would be better. As laser gun, can emit lethal beams of energy from anywhere on the electomagnetic spectrum: gamma rays, X-rays, visible light, infrared rays, radio waves, etc. Flies in laser gun or robot Mode. High fuel use, but can be powered by nuclear sources. Often confounded by initiative, emotional thinking.

Weapons and Special Abilities

Shockwave's laser cannon is connected to the nuclear reactor in his chest, and give him nearly complete control over most forms of radiation, from the electromagnetic spectrum to x-rays, infrared, and radio waves. He can manipulate this as powerful energy blasts, which are magnified even further in his space gun mode.

Shockwave can fly in both robot and gun mode. He retains his robot-mode size in gun mode.

Appearance

Shockwave's arms, lower legs, torso and head are purple; feet, thighs and other accent bits are grey. His has only his right hand; the left is a laser cannon connected to the reactor in his chest. His chest is a bit overlarge to compensate for said reactor. Shockwave doesn't have a face; merely a single optic that flashes in time with his speech. Those who might recognize Shockwave would note that the Decepticon emblem usually present on the side of his right shoulder is missing; Shockwave made a show of denouncing the Decepticon brand before the Council, thus solidifying his position.

Shockwave's alt mode is a space gun, a.k.a. Giant Purple Space Gun of Doom.

Height: Leader.
