FEARMONGER
ALLEGIANCE: DECEPTICON
FUNCTION: ADVANCE TROOP
SUB-GROUP: SWEEP
FIRST APPEARANCE: "FIVE FACES OF DARKNESS" PART 3
"Be afraid...be very
afraid."
Profile: Fearmonger is known as
one of the most terrifying and dangerous of all Decepticons. His reputation
precedes himeven his fellow Decepticons are scared of him. What
very few suspect about him, however, is that it's all an act. He
deliberately cultivates a reputation of being a fearsome and deadly combatant,
but in practice his behavior is far more benign. He typically
surveys a battlefield before the conflict begins, but leaves before the fighting
gets too intense for him to handle. While he projects an image of being
a powerful warrior, the truth is that he hates fighting. He is a
self-serving robot who would rather watch other Decepticons risk their lives
in combat than do so himself. He relies on the other Sweeps and
their safety in numbers, but never operates alone. Ultimately, Fearmonger
is interested in his own welfare above all else, and he uses the rumors that
the other Decepticons spread about him to ensure his continued safety.
Abilities: Fearmonger flies
at 200 mph, with a range of 1800 miles in ideal conditions. He is equipped
with high-intensity spotlights to track down and locate Autobots, and he
carries a smoke bomb launcher that disrupts the ventilation systems of enemy
robots, causing them to overheat.
Weaknesses: Fearmonger
depends almost entirely upon his reputation as a lethal warrior, since he
lacks powerful offensive capabilities. He operates best when part a
group assault, since he is unable to sustain offensive measures on his
own.
