Scorponok (BW)


 * Scorponok is a Predacon from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.



Scorponok's personality seems to have two main features: he's dumb and he's loyal to Megatron, and among those two features only the loyalty seems to be consistent. He tries to serve Megatron to the best of his abilities, but when Waspinator is able to outwit you there's only so much you have to offer.

Scorponok was Megatron's second-in-command on the Darksyde, though he is insecure about the title and constantly tries to assert himself among the other Predacons who, aware of his shortcomings, generally dismiss or ignore him.

Scorponok's only other real contibution to Megatron's cause is in developing cyber-viruses that he delivers with his cyberbee drone. (Impressive actually, given his otherwise limited mentality.) Generally these don't work out as he hoped however, and so they've done little to increase his standing in the eyes of the other Predacons.

Timelines: Dawn of Future's Past
The Predacon that would be called Scorponok, his commander Megatron, and his commander's lieutenant stole the sacred Maximal relic, the Golden Disk. After battling through the relic's guards, the thieves were picked up by their other comrades in a stolen ship newly-dubbed the Darksyde. After a space battle with the Axalon, the Chromia 10, and an unidentified Predacon ship, only the Axalon and the Darksyde survived to pass through a transwarp portal to an unknown destination.

Crash-landing on an unknown planet, Scorponok and his peers were forced to take on organic beast modes to shield themselves from the planet's dangerous levels of raw energon. Scorponok now transformed into an organic scorpion.

Scorponok died along with Terrorsaur when he tumbled into the lava beneath the Predacon base during the explosion of the Vok's artificial moon. No one much noticed.
