Character History:
Although Megatron's origins were as an inconsequential miner living and working in Mining outpost C-12, his life was cast onto a new torrent of destiny by a simple twist of fate. Arriving to declare the mine closed, senator Decimus and his guards promised government assistance and the possibility of relocation. The miners, however, had heard this tune before--mine after mine was closing down due to automation, leaving robots stranded without jobs in an economy that was tanking. When a fellow bot dared to voice an objection to the close, questioning the legitimacy of the Senator's claims in liu of other closing mines, he was brutally dismantled on the spot. A shocked Megatron rebelled, surging forward and leading a spontaneous attack on the Senator which killed or wounded several guards before the workers were rounded up and shipped off towards prison. Although their rebellion was subdued and their future looking bleak, the remaining worker-bots asked Megatron for help in plottin their escape. Together, they managed to commandeer the prison vessel and to disable the Senator's starship in a distraction, before they fled to dissapear in the hovels of Kaon city.
Turning to the lethal underground fighting circuit as their only chance of staying fed, Megatron and several remaining workers joined an arena combat team under the command of Clench. Initially unwilling to destroy others (and still in shock that he'd already killed a guard,) Megatron was nevertheless forced to take life after life in the ring to survive himself, and to keep alive his former work-mates one fight at a time. Day by day, his anger grew at the corrupt Senate who forced him and his group into their meager existence and, day by day, his skills and power grew as well. After over 50 battles, a hardened Megatron no longer balked at death, even going so far as to kill their faltering team-captain Clench and taking over to lead the team to further victories.
When he was offered additional upgrades and troops by Soundwave (funded by the corrupt Senator Ratbat,) he accepted them, and, instead of merely using them in the areana, he constructed a plan of much wider scope. Using his new flight-capable warriors (the Seeker trio) to capture Senator Decimus, Megatron called arena fighters from around the globe to come and have the opportunity to fight with him. They came, and he presented to them the cause of their misfortune: the Senators who squeezed their riches from illegitimate activities and the working class, the corrupted government and un-caring upper-class who fed into it, the security forces under Sentinal Prime who tried to bring down their last and only way of living...
He gave them faces to hate, and a banner to unite beneath.
And then, in an ultimately daring move, he allowed them all and himself to be captured by the Security forces and brought before the government--putting them in the perfect place to unleash their attack. With the assistance of Starscream and Soundwave, the 'prisoners' were released, the Senators were assassinated, and the upper-class of Kaon were brought down in flames. Megatron took command of a unified force of combat-ready fighters from across the globe and wrecked havoc on the city of Kaon, destroying security forces one at a time until going head to head against a Prime, himself. Defeating in one-on-one combat an apex equipped and armored-to-the-teeth Sentinal Prime, Megatron lead his forces to their first undeniable victory and sealed his place at the head of the Decepticon army.
All hail Megatron, yo.
Character Personality:
Megatron has an almost calm sense of ambition--moving plots and plans forward with a relentless certainty that he will make the outcome HIS. He is unwilling to back down when his cause is at stake, even against superior odds, since he rather arrogantly believes he can turn the tide in his favor (and, being a shrewd tactician working with other shrewd tacticians, finds this often to be the case). Ironically enough, he fights against political corruption, desires to unify all bots under one banner, and also at this point seems to be doing these tasks for not entirely selfish reasons (since half the point is for himself and his men to have better lives.) He believes that any bot should have the opportunity to achieve what they can for themselves by their abilities and knowledge, defying fate and making their own destiny--(especially himself.) He has come quite a long way and made quite a lot of sacrifice towards this goal, and will not be pleased to have it taken out from under him for any reason.
Powers:
Young Megatron seems to be able to transform into a very generic but powerful cybertronian vehicle, which he does use from time to time to enhance his method of combat. ( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v220/Saeru/megvehicle.jpg ) By the end of his origins story arc, however, he's gained a few other trick-outs including a glowy mace, an armor upgrade, and a rather super-powered laser of some variety given to him by Starscream (isn't that nice.) Innate abilities include his intelligence and his (admitedly) strange charisma/leadership abilities (hey, no one has betrayed him yet out of an army of hardened bots from differing factions all over Cybertron, so he must be doing something right.) Also, he knows how to mine stuff.

There.
The keys are much too small...the interface is most unfortunate and hard to read. I believe I was given an inadequate terminal...this must be for a much smaller bot.

Hm.
This is slightly problematic.
On the other hand, why should I have anything to type on this terminal at all? I do not see how it can help me return to my world, or to my battle-ield.
Hm.
I need another way of saying battle-ield without the letter -. To my troops? To my war? To my conquest? To my victory? ...hm. Those last two are the same thing, but none o- them have the right -eel.
Well.
At least none o- them involve the in-ernal letter -.
Alright, that's enough.
I am -inished -or now.
-rag.
Third Person:
"You ask what next?
"I can think of a few ideas."
Thinking of a number of ideas was not turning out to be the problem, however. Thinking of one, single idea, was.
As Soundwave left to retrieve the tactical statistics of their current status in Kaon, Megatron sank back into a pile of rubble to consider the question that the other Decepticon had asked.
For starters, there was an un-tamed planet in front of him, and a new day was dawning. However, un-tamed was probably not the best choice of words for a fully civilized world, and the beginning of today day meant the beginning of everything after a night of hard battle and no rest. Kaon was destroyed. His men were in need of repairs, and fuel. He was in need of repairs and fuel. Scavenger crews would need to be sent out, a new base would need to be scouted and fortified, plans would need to be made for both defense and offense against a world that knew where he was and what sort of a threat he posed.
Despite the setbacks, Megatron paused on that thought to smirk.
...a world that knew what sort of a threat he posed.
A few days ago, no 'legitimate' bot on Cybertron not connected with security forces or the underground (thus canceling out 'legitimate') would have heard of him, and now he had raised an army out of the forgotten, defeated the corrupt, and claimed a city on the homeworld. Although Kaon had been filthy to start with...now it was merely filth.
Honestly, he thought it looked much better now.
Past the torn buildings and burning streets, after all, the senate hall was empty, and HE stood on the wreckage. In his world, there was not corruption...there was advancement. In his world, there was a place for the strong who would fight beside him. In his world, all Cybertronians would be united, and working for one cause.
One cause.
Slowly, his frown returned, and he leaned forward to rest his chin upon his fist in thought. There were so many, many things to consider, now.
If the Decepticons were going to advance upon the world beneath his banner....then he he would have to have a cause. A good cause. A strong cause. More than just an excuse to get revenge....
He would have to find a cause they'd find worth dying for.
His cause.
