“ Peace through tyranny. „

“ This is Megatron, leader of the Decepticons. And if you're hearing this, it means I've failed... THIS time. „
~ Beast Wars: Transformers - The Agenda (Part II)

“ Finish this planet, we are done here!? „
~ Transformers: The Game - Decepticon Ending

“ Our opportunity to revive Cybertron has been lost, due to the treachery of Optimus Prime! But from our fortress of New Kaon, we will instead seize control of this world! DECEPTICONS! TRANSFORM AND RISE UP! „
~ Transformers: Prime - Darkest Hour

“ In a society built around a Grand Cybertronian Taxonomy that is obsessively revised and reinterpreted, the one thing that never changes-the one thing that must never change-is the system itself. Every revision, every reinterpretation takes place within a rigid framework of social stratification. Nothing must threaten the Functionist's core philosophy: utility as an organizing principle.

If you could step outside the system you would recognize it for what it is: a prison. Worse than that, it is a prison full of willing prisoners. And not only are you a prisoner within the system, you are a prisoner within your own body. Whether you were born or made, forged or constructed cold, you are trapped inside your alt mode. The Functionists built the lock and the Senate holds the key; but most of us are unaware that we're locked in.

Make no mistake: your life is mapped out in front of you, as clear as the grooves in your transformation cog. You can no more choose to change jobs than Cybertron can choose to stop orbiting the sun. You can no more acquire a skill unrelated to your vocation than the sky can acquire a conscience.

In denying you the ability to reject your alt mode-in preventing you from pursuing a path of your own choosing-both the Senate and the [Functionist] Council say they are acting in your best interests. They have a responsibility, they say, to ensure you make the best of your God-given form. If you turn into a drill, it is because Primus knows Cybertron needs drills. To deviate from your function is to risk invoking the wrath of God and bringing the world to its knees.

In truth, it is about control. A multi-skilled population is an empowered population. And if you reject your alt mode, what next? Would you reject your class? Would you reject your government?

The Functionists don't rely solely on theology when rebutting arguments for change. Working outside your of alt mode would be confusing, they say. Imagine being treated by a medic with tank treads; you would question their competence. And they extend the same question to the miners. 'Would you feel comfortable working alongside a microscope?' And to the military: 'Would you put your life in the hands of a soldier who turns into a data slug?'

And it is true. People would be unnerved-at first. But the Functionists-enabled by the Senate-have created the conditions that have given rise to this culture of suspicion; and they have done so deliberately, because it reinforces the status quo. Moreover, it fosters division, and division is another way to which they can control the population. The more walls you can put up between people, the easier it is to contain them, and the stronger the structural integrity of the system.

And that is why when you see a stranger you don't think, 'What are they like?' You think, 'What are they for?' You don't think, 'What are their hopes, dreams, aspirations?' You think, 'What do they do?' And than you think, 'Where are they positioned in relation to me? Do they sit above, alongside, or below? Are they better than me, or I them?'

Even if you believe in the Grand Cybertronian Taxonomy, ask yourself this: who decides on that order? And then: why should there be an order? And that is the question that the Senate and the Functionists fear the most, because they know their world would collapse if people arrived at the answer. Why should there be an order? I'll tell you: there shouldn't be.

Be happy in your work, they say, for it enriches you. Be grateful for your alt mode, for it defines you. Be thankful for the system-it protects you. Be mindful of your betters-they think for you. I say enough. Reject your work. Reject your alt mode. Resist the system. And your 'betters'? You have none. We are all equal. And we have a right to decide how to live our lives.

Bio[]

Megatron is the founder of the Decepticon uprising and their most well-known and feared leader. As a young, charismatic leader forged in battle and the heritage of war, he began to believe in a grand purpose for his race—it is the Transformers' glorious destiny to rule an empire that will span the universe. The opposite of his mortal enemy Optimus Prime, he feels great contempt for other Transformers who, he feels, betray their proud heritage by demanding peace and cooperation with weaker life forms. It is the destiny of the Decepticons to bring order to the universe through conquest, though in the millions of years since coining this purpose it remains to be seen how much of his mission statement is altruistic... and how much of it is mere words built to fuel warriors to further his desire for personal power.

Megatron will attempt almost anything to achieve his goals, but his schemes are rarely in any way subtle. This is perhaps due to his arrogance, but his pride is not so strong as to dissuade him from abandoning a battle he is losing. He often shows dramatic examples of cowardice, concealed in rage. Although he isn't as physically strong as Optimus, his ability to analyze any situation and utilize it as a weapon makes the Decepticons deadly, so they can find energy sources almost immediately. Some would question his sanity, though these few are mostly now dead by his hands... or his fusion cannon, depending on his mood.

Sometimes he uses his Energon mace to strike them down. It does not matter how they die. Death by the hands of Megatron is an honor.Contrary to natural assumptions, his fusion cannon becomes the scope of his gun mode, not the barrel. Sometimes, he is previously known as Megatronus, and sometimes, he is later reformatted as Galvatron.
