Name: Airachnid
Group: Decepticon/Rogue
Other Characters: N/A
Appearance: Airachnid's body is all over slender and almost fragile-looking. She stands about eye level with Starscream and some of the other Decepticons when she is walking normally. Her height increases dramatically once she uses her many spider-like legs to lift herself into the air. Her colors are primarily dark purple(almost black) and gold with an almost toxic looking purple peeking out here and there. Her eyes are also toxic purple, almost insect-like in nature, with black lines around them, giving her a distinct facial structure. Despite being spider-like her entire body is harsh edges and sharp points with only a little bit of curvature here and there to add elegance to her frame. She also has some sort of a built in skirt that exposes her midriff, much like Arcee.
Personality: Airachnid is sadistic, traitorous, and cruel, and has some very unique hobbies. She enjoys collecting the heads of endangered species, and has a wide collection of them. This bot has no issue with backstabbing her fellow Decepticons, seducing, and even killing them. She is vengeful, when given reason, and greedy, always looking for a way to make herself more powerful. She'll go to any lengths to gain favor and power within the Decepticons, even if killing others off is the only way. Sometimes, she'll even flirt around with a few of those who'd be stupid enough to take the chance.
Weaknesses: Collecting the heads of endangered species and destroying others for personal gain. She HATES Soundwave to no end, which is never good, and seems to fall in and out of being a Decepticon. She only is one when she needs to gain something from them or sees an opportunity to gain power from them. Revenge is also a weakness, since she will not easily let go of past transgressions, even small ones. She has no sympathy for others and will tear other bots apart, friend or foe, and kill them if they piss her off enough.
Weapons: She has blasters built into her hands, which also fire webbing, acidic poison that is secreted from her claws, six extra spider-like appendages that can be used as claws or blades, and she has the ability to command Insecticons by emitting a specific frequency. She is a unique kind of Transformer called Triple-Changers: her robot-mode, vehicle-mode (stealth copter), and a spider-like "beast mode". However, she is also known to use a drill-like transformation, in which she uses her arachnoid legs to spin and dig down below the ground. Due to her interaction with the Energon-hungry Terracon C.Y.L.A.S., she has the ability to drain other Transformers of energon. (mostly borrowed from here)
History: During the war on Cybertron Airachnid was a torture specialist. During that time she tortured Arcee in effort to gain a set of Autobot attack-coordinates from her. Arcee refused to talk so Airachnid tried a simpler method - Either Arcee talked, or her partner, Tailgate would die. Arcee swore she didn't know the coordinates but even then Airachnid made good on her threat and splattered the walls with Tailgate's energon, killing him right before Arcee's eyes. She was about to terminate an emotionally-stricken Arcee when Bumblebee and Cliffjumper broke in, blasters blazing, killing Airachnid's two Vehicon henchmen while she made a quick escape. This event would forge a mutual desire for both Arcee and Airachnid to off-line the other.
After the exodus, Airachnid went solo and traveled the universe in pursuit of her new hobby - Collecting endangered species (that weren't really endangered until they met her) and mounting their heads on the walls of her ship. Airachnid's ship crash landed on Earth while Arcee and Jack were on Energon Patrol. She had come to Earth for her next souvenir. As soon as Arcee saw the ship, she knew who it was. This led her to a flash back while she was in Airachnid's torture chambers on Cybertron. Airachnid then proceeded to make a mark on Arcee's face with her acidic touch. Arcee witnessed her partner Tailgate's death by Airachnid's hand. Later though, Arcee faced Airachnid and was soon webbed to a cliff side by her. After Arcee told Jack to run away, since Airachnid was only interested in hunting humans, Airachnid left Arcee as she chased Jack instead. After a chase through the forest, Jack was able to light some leaked energon near Airachnid's ship, thus destroying her ship and leaving her stranded. However, Airachnid managed to web Jack to a tree but Arcee arrived just in time to stop Airachnid from harming Jack. Arcee managed to defeat Airachnid, only to see her escape under-ground in her drill mode.
She later had a brief "partnership" with MECH to get revenge on Arcee and Jack. M.E.C.H kidnapped June Darby, Jack's mother, and lures them to Airachnid. When Airachnid was about to strike her revenge, Agent Fowler showed up. She scanned his helicopter and fled, much to Fowler's irritation of his vehicles again being scanned by Decepticons. Later, she stole the Polarity Gauntlet from Breakdown in the desert, claiming "It fits, a girl can never have too many accessories." When Arcee arrived, magnetized to Bulkhead's back, they fought again. A stray blaster bolt from Arcee knocked the gauntlet from Airachnid's hand, causing it to activate, but Breakdown managed to turn it off. Later in the battle, she got stuck to Breakdown and was taken aboard the Nemesis. She told Megatron, "What can I say, it's good to be back." Airachnid and Starscream went in search of the Harbinger, a lost Decepticon transporter that carried a special weapon, the Immobilizer. Airachnid activated the ship's computer, but Starscream warned that the Autobots would trace the energy signal, which they did. When Airachnid found out the ship was broken in half when it was attacked by Autobots, she wasn't happy. She tied him up and left for the Autobots. He told where the other half was though. Airachnid had found the other half of the ship, and the Immobilizer. When the Autobots arrived, she attacked them with it. She hit Bulkhead, freezing him. Nearby, Arcee was guarding Starscream when he made the awful mistake of admitting to her that he was the one who killed Cliffjumper. Enraged at finding the 'Con who killed her partner, Arcee allowed Starscream to escape and they began to fight. Thinking she had frozen him, Airachnid left Bumblebee, only for him to sneak up and punch her. She dropped the Immobilizer and Bumblebee destroyed it. Airachnid transformed and escaped in her helicopter form, only to get the riot act from Megatron, who was furious at her for leaving Starscream to the Autobots, thereby giving them access to valuable Decepticon information. Later on, Airachnid was placed in command of Megatron's vessel in his absence. When Megatron did not report back for some time, Airachnid began to suggest that the Decepticons "should consider the possibility of a future without Megatron..." As Earth begins to fall into chaos due to the awakening of Unicron, Airachnid threatened the troops into obeying her command to retreat. Soundwave, however, challenged Airachnid's authority, and when she tried to correct him, Soundwave easily beat, forced her to yield, and embarrassed her in front of the entire crew.
Aboard the Nemesis, Airachnid suggested her tracking skills would prove useful for bringing the remaining relics to Megatron. After Megatron claimed to have noted her suggestion, Airachnid briefly addressed Soundwave before leaving the room. With her request approved, she was sent out with Breakdown and Dreadwing to locate a spike of Energon. As the three walked, Airachnid stated that Megatron had overdone himself by sending two of his professional and trusted Decepticons to track it down, as opposed to just one. This would caused an argument and eventual fight between her and Breakdown, as she made it clear to him that she was referring to Dreadwing and herself. Airachnid continued to pester Breakdown, making puns directly related to his loss of his eye. When Breakdown became enraged, he attacked her
As referred to by Megatron during his contact of Dreadwing, Airachnid proved to be difficult as she quickly moved away from the two and webbed Breakdown's face. Things grew more tense as Dreadwing joined in the fight, carrying on his original intention to kill her. As Dreadwing shot at her, she easily dodged his blasts. Dreadwing's shooting ended when Airachnid finally succeeded in hitting him with one of her webs, attaching him to a tree and rendering him unable to use his weapon. One particular blast hit a tree, of which she was positioned on, causing her to hit her back against it and fall to the ground. Finally, Breakdown joined in the battle. He attacked her, and followed her deeper into the forest, away from the immobile Dreadwing. Seemingly cornered, she allowed Breakdown to follow her, then wrapped him with her webs and killed him by literally tearing him apart, limb-by-limb. She never knew that he had a crush on her..
After leaving his corpse, she found an Insecticon. In turn, it came across Starscream, who had left the Decepticons like herself and was desperately looking for energon. With her former fellow Decepticon in her sights, she asserted to him that she and the Insecticon had a unique bond, they were "one of the same mind". Starscream offered a proposal for a truce between the her and he, to which she rejected and instead ordered her Insecticon to kill him. Though Starscream survived, she later set her sights on Megatron, whom she challenged to come and face her new warrior. Megatron did and proved to be a worthy adversary for the Insecticon. Megatron reminded her of his training in the pits of Kaon and defeated the Insecticon before being too worn out to even stand and collapsing to the ground. Meanwhile, Airachnid was chased down by a consistently vengeful Arcee. Though the female Autobot tried her best, she proved unable to detain her and was webbed herself by Airachnid. However, she would not be able to carry out Arcee's death when Starscream shot at her, causing her to flee. After fleeing, she stumbled across a vast amount of Insecticons and concluded that her first warrior was merely a scout.
Later on she found the location of the Nemesis and awakened several of the Insecticons inside the nest she had found. While they were busy flying to the Decepticon warship, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Arcee arrived. However, she then had the rear unit of her Insecticon army attack the Autobots while she escaped, but Arcee was able to escape the Insecticons and chase after her, again. While giving chase, Arcee also had to handle two of her Insecticons; however, one of them stopped right in front of a tree, which caused the other to clumsily slam into it. One of the disabled Insecticons crashed near Airachnid, causing her to fly off the ledge she stood upon. Upon recovering from the impact, Airachnid tunneled underground, into the nest she had discovered, and Arcee followed. Inside the nest, Airachnid finally engaged in combat with Arcee. During the fight, she was knocked into one of the opened Insecticon stasis pods by Arcee. Arcee then activated the pod, which sealed before she could escape, slicing off one of her "legs", and then forced her to enter a form of stasis. The pod was then brought back to the Autobot's headquarters.
Airachnid was kept in the Autobot base within her stasis pod. Smokescreen and Starscream were surprised to see her there. After the Autobot base was destroyed, the Decepticons salvage team found her in the stasis pod. The Decepticons moved her to Megatron's new fortress in Jasper, Nevada. She would later be moved to the Nemesis and would remain there for some time.
During the time in which C.Y.L.A.S. was experimented on by Knockout, Airachnid would be freed from stasis by C.Y.L.A.S. as he had been transformed into an energon-hungry Terrocon. She was surprised to see Breakdown again, but the two fought, again, and Airachnid tore apart him apart, again. However, she was confused to find out that Silas was within Breakdown, who thanked her for finally ending his suffering. Airachnid quickly regained control over her Insecticons once again and led them in a rebellion against Megatron. Her revenge was short-lived as she and her hordes attacked Soundwave, and she was tricked into a space-bridge portal to one of Cybertron's moons. Later on she realized she was infected with the same Dark-Energon hunger as C.Y.L.A.S. and is now feeding on her own Insecticon minions in order to survive. Which really sucks..
