Hello flesh creature, welcome to The Empire. Over various generations and worlds, universes etc (made and played by various persons…) there have been many different Transformers who have the proud honour to call themselves Destron. Not all Destrons are Destrons in every reality either, so don’t be surprised if some names here make utterly NO SENSE at all J

Deszaras / Deathsauras: Fierce Leader of the Destrons in many a universe or MUSH, for various amounts of time, first seen in the excellent Victory Japanese TF show. There, he leads the feared Brestforce Elite of the Destron Empire. Varies a lot from Liege Centuro of the Destron sector of the Cybertronian Empire in TMUK, to Raksha and Megatron’s creation (son) in another FanFic universe. Was released solely as a Japanese toy, with two pets, a Tigerbrest and an Eaglebrest. To me he’s just Dezzy – kick ass and stone cold crazy. 

On the Genesis MUSH, after being imprisoned by Hellbat in his cryochambre, he escaped with the help of his minions and for a while was highly unstable, ordering insane assaults and throwing tempers.  But with the help of those around him who were loyal to the cause, he got through this stage and is currently ruling the Sky City with a firm but sure fist.  He has employed the Elite (a female group of Cons) and Six Shot to his forces. 

Overlord (Giga / Mega): First seen in the Japanese TV show Masterforce and appeared briefly in both Victory and Zone after this. Led the Destrons in MF. Was released as a toy in both Japan and the UK. Features in many TMUK universes as Overlord or Trannis, and there are many differing versions of this monstrosity with different minds, either shared with partners or not. He appears with Matrix powers in the TMUK Nova Wars era. Overlord is most commonly seen with two PowerMaster / GodMaster engines that tf into people which are either human, robot, Nebulan or whatever takes his fancy. Their sentience and/or control levels over Overlord, or indeed how much they ARE him is totally new in each case. One thing stands true though – Overlord is a Destron through and through. Forget he’s there and you’re welcoming an early grave.

He appears on the Victory MUSH as a high ranking Destron warrior, with the toy's specs, where he currently leads the Destrons, as Deszaras is shut away in the Dark Realm, after an act of self sacrifice.

Leozak / Leozack: Leozak, first seen in the Japanese TV show Victory, where he appears as Deszaras’ right hand man. Leader and Captain of the Breastforce / Beastforce and Gaihawk’s loyal comrade, an elite warrior team of Destrons who work for Deszaras and man the almighty Destron Space Headquarters, also known as the Space Fortress and Sky City. Leozak pilots the powerful gestalt combiner robot Liokaiser with his own mind. Also showed up a fair bit in TMUK sagas, fighting both in the Empire of the Liege Maximo and within the separate Destron race.
Had been used in my own personal universes a lot, has mastery over Matrix abilities in TMUK’s Nova Wars era and my own universe, Fears very little and can be defeated by even less. Has a lion as a pet.

Features on at least two MUSHes, Genesis and Victory IInd (where I play as him!) Has an Autobot (Cybertron) clone in many of the universes / realities called Res-Cue who leads the Rescueforce…and in some people’s realities comes to get along with Leozak quite well. In others they remain enemies. Was a toy solely in Japan, and had his mould used in the UK to create his UK clone, Res-Cue. Here is his Genesis description :

Gaihawk : The man of the moment! First seen in Victory when his fellow Breastforcers come to rescue him from jail, where Star Sabre put him after certain ‘very serious crimes’. Is light red or magenta…NOT PINK!!! Was released as a toy ONLY in Japan. Has a hawk as a pet. On a MUSH we learn he has a smaller brother called Nightstrike (NYT). Features in TMUK as Leozak’s second in command of the Breastforce, and that way in other places too.

On Genesis he is in the group but for some strange reason – Hellbat is ranked above him. Generally is the hard guy of the posse and no one messes with him. Is hated by Ironhide in particular! In my universe he is discovered and pulled away from usual Destron life by Elita One early on, affecting his future a whole lot! Has a certain weakness wherever he goes, it seems, around members of the opposing gender. Has single handedly been the cause of other new Destrons to come into existence and also owns a small planet in the Chendegu System. Holds a rather considerable position of power alongside his brother-in-arms, Leozack. Has taken a liking at one time or another, to almost every femme he’s ever met (Not unlike 007). Most recent development is his unique ability to appear in a 007 mode, and his pursuing of the Destron Elite (a female group). FEAR his PPK… and fear that beak and those deep, deep optics … for this guy means to do serious business with you …

Killbison: Kill’ is one of he other members of the Beastforce introduced in Victory and serves Deszaras, under Leozack. Has a bison as a pet. Was released as a toy in Japan and also his mould was used to create his UK clone, Clamp. Killbison is the brown tank, not so bright, hard-headed one of the group. Was shown to be a sandy brown and grey, but is often shown as yellow or orange. Features minorly in some universes as a background warrior char, and on at least two MUSHes. Killbison is partially insane. Although he has a brain he rarely ever uses it. He is known as the Breastforcer who will charge at any enemy when in one of his rages. Acts like a troubled child, and comes across to others in the team as Leozak's footman - and thug. He does his job well though, and his strength is an asset to the team. Also he's not bright enough to really think treacherously so is usually very loyal. He will beat up on any member of the Destrons who Leozak or his brothers see as out of line, such as the sly Hellbat. Although he is crazy, he is very good at frontal assault and so should not be underestimated! Leozak is quietly pleased with his brother and likes his almost blind loyalty. Killbison's animal partner Bisonblaster has three modes - his brown chestplate, the Bisonblaster (double barreled rocket launcher) and a small brown Bison that acts in the same way Killbison does. It is sometimes well behaved, but will not always obey Killbison! Kill' also carries a morphing spear/chain energy weapon and in tank mode fires long range charges from his double barrelled ballistic turret. He is tough as leather...but rather simple.

Jaugar: The grey and black menace who sounds like Gaihawk, and acts like himself. Calm and very paranoid sometimes, Jaugar (pronounced as Jau-Gar) was only a toy in Japan and his mould was used to create his UK clone, Lock-Up. First seen in Victory fighting for Deszaras under Leozak. Has a jaguar as a pet, who's name is Jaugarbreasto. Features as a quiet background worker in TMUK and other fanfics and universes, and on the show. Is available on at least TWO MUSHes.

Drillhorn: The blue and white hardened one. Drillhorn was a Jap only TF, whose mould was used to create his UK clone, Vibration (also known as Killdozer). First appeared in Victory with his fellow Beastforce under Leozack. Has a rhino for a pet. Gruff and hard working, Drillhorn is built like a rugby player. He appears as a background char in TMUK and other fanfics and universes. Works to maintain most of the mechanical stuff aboard Sky City. Has a powerful killdozer mode which is due all respect. His component is called Rhinoblaster, but it's original Japanese name (and that in TMUK) is Houndbresto, though strangly it is a small rhino.  Drillhorn is on at least TWO MUSHes. Here is his Genesis description :

Res-Cue: A DESTRON??? Yes indeed. In most realities, Res-Cue, the Leozak clone, has no real identity and is lucky if she’s recognizes as even being female. The toy of her is UK only and was made from the Leozak mould. In TMUK however, she is a Cybertron warrior who becomes an Autobot later on and leads a team of medics and rescuers called the Rescueforce. Previous to that she and her squad were under Thunderclash in the Empire. In my universe though, she is created by using the captive Leozak and is stolen by him as a hostage to make his escape! She grows up for a while with him as her Master on the Warworld, and learns how to be a good Destron. Eventually she gets home to the Autobots...but although she becomes one of them her loyalties are only to Leozak. Once Leozak holds his universal position of power though, she can freely walk around with him and be his companion. Res-Cue acts as Leozak’s conscience and guide. She is red and white, has no pet and is very honorable and reliable, and supports Leozak in all things.

Hellbat: Darknesss hass fallen! At least he’d like you to think of it that way. Hellbat is dark blue and white in the main, with the weirdest helmet that has bat like spikes fanning out from him, with a central spiked ridge on the top of it, and his mouth is almost always covered by a faceplate. He features on at least TWO MUSHes, and is a main player in several universes and fanfics. Was first seen in Victory serving under Leozack as the newest addition to the Beastforce. Is readily hated and despised. Was a Jap only toy, with a bat as a pet. In various realities, Hellbat can be seen as a member of the secret Brotherhood Of Chaos, of the Destrons and of the Empire. Thinks he holds more dark powers than he actually does, but is very sly and tricky. Hellbat is manic and a bit of a weed. Has a connection with one of his female ex-thralls, currently on Genesis MUSH, best described as a ‘twisted’ connection. Was bullied readily in Victory by Killbison and Gaihawk for being annoying!  Leozack does not trust him in any reality - but however he will listen to Hellbat and hear what news and spy information he brings forth, as everyone who knows Hellbat knows - he is a sly and devious piece of work, excellent at his job - when he isn't trying to find a way to KILL you!

Icepick (Goryu) : Was first seen in Victory and has starred minorly in TMUK and fanfic etc. Leads the Dinosaur Combat Troops (Dinoforce/Dinocons) under Deszaras and his General, Leozack. Controls Monstructor/Dinoking, when the group merge. Is a lot smarter than the group he leads … but is still not too cleaver. Tries very hard indeed to do well. Was a Jap only toy – but with various cheap copies made in Europe of him and his group. He and all his team are pretenders. Has a very cool club which he uses to discipline his unruly men. Icepick is kinda’ cute – in the same way a thick and happy builder is (smirk). Is on the Victory MUSH.

Slog: Not much to say about Slog. He’s the joke of the Dinocon team. Fat and slow, he is comic relief at it’s best and was first shown in Victory fighting under Icepick. He is, like his brother Icepick in terms of toy releases – Jap only but copies were made. He was mentioned minorly in fanfics and realities since Victory. Slog is yellow/black and appeared once with a magnum .44 as a weapon and a white flag! His dinosaur is the only thing that makes him tough. He is available on the Victory MUSH.

Scowl: He’s just the same as Slog, only less of a moron and slightly more hard. Scowl likes to maim and collect energy. He was a Jap only toy, with copies made. First appeared in Victory, then was very minorly mentioned in fanfics and realities. Scowl makes up part of the Dinocon team under Icepick. EACH OF these Dinocons, I warn you, has differing weird names and exact functions in differing universes. Also available on the Victory MUSH.

Dactyl: Dactyl/Birdbrain likes to burn woods! Yes, this flyer is very much like Terrorsaur in his devoted battling against the enemy but his inadequate stupidity and rush in attitude. He has limited air skills and combat weapons. Acts as an air scout for the group of Dinocons. Was a Jap only toy with copies made. First seen in Victory under Icepick, used slightly since in fanfic etc. Dactyl flies like Batman, with all the skill of Terrorsaur.

NOTE : The Dinocons are all available on at least one MUSH, Victory.
