Description:

Shockwave is a very methodical and persistent strategic thinker who is determined to complete and perfect his various scientific inventions for the betterment of all Decepticons. He is highly knowledgeable in a variety of different areas and is considered to be as much the brilliant scientist by his companions as he is the brilliant strategist. Due to a well developed logical approach and his unending patience, Shockwave is well suited to difficult or complex tasks, though he is equally adept in situations that require him to think quickly or to devise creative solutions. Even though he enjoys time alone spent in reflection, he highly values the company of his fellow Decepticons whenever they’re around.

Back Story:

Shockwave was a main contributor to a number of important inventions and discoveries on Cybertron. He has always been an independent thinker and in the early days on Cybertron rarely took sides in domestic conflicts, preferring instead to focus his efforts on ensuring the safety and security of his home planet against any alien threat. However, as the friction between the Autobots and various Destron groups escalated he ultimately chose to align himself with Megatron – his long-time good friend and fellow scientist – and his newly formed splinter group, the Decepticons, and has remained with them ever since.

Motto:

“Clarity in thought. Precision in action.”
