Starscream

Starscream (スタースクリーム, Sutāsukurīmu) was an Sky Commander of Cybertron's finest air warriors, but demoted and reduced to a mere guard over an all-but-derelict station. He once had an ambitious dream was to return the Transformers to the Golden Age, and he saw opportunity with the rebel upstart Megatron. Following the Great War, Starscream and the Seekers joined Megatron and the Decepticons. A patient and polite schemer, Starscream used to wish Megatron would drop the heroic anti-caste charade and be more honest about his lust for power.

These days, he alternatively wishes Megatron would stop being obsessed with his lust for power and chafes under having to work for such a madman. While he serves as a Deceptcion Air Commander, Starscream is easily as accomplished, powerful and deserving of leadership as Megatron. At least, that's what he thinks. Power-hungry and driven by jealousy, Starscream operates through three ideals: lying, manipulation and deception. And when all else fails, a bit of sabotage never goes astray. Wise bots are careful about turning their backs on Starscream, just in case it's the day he finally decides to actually manage to get behind to shove in the knife.

Though he is not as physically powerful by Cybertronian standards (despite what he thinks of himself powerful as Megatron), Starscream is by no means a wimp, he is arguably more dangerous than Megatron as he is power hungry, egotistic, unpredictable and willing to kill on sight. His weapons can easily demolish large buildings, and he can fly around so fast that he can break free of Ratchet's magnetic powers. Fortunately for Megatron, all these abilities are offset by an enormous ego, the tendency to make long, overbearing speeches when he should just get on with it and fight and Starscream is prone to panic, paranoid cowardice and bombastic gestures. More than once, his leanings towards bombast have caused him to miss a golden opportunity. Sadly, he doesn't seem to be learning from these mistakes.

He may be a scientist, but we're not quite sure.

Starscream has always lived in Megatron's shadow and it burns him constantly. He feels that he has done much more in the name of Decepticons than Megatron, but he simply lacks the charisma to inspire others. Starscream makes up for this shortcoming with lies, deceit, manipulation, and when that fails, MORE lies, deceit, and manipulation. Starscream would love nothing more than to obtain the AllSpark for himself, win the devotion of fellow Decepticons, and usurp Megatron's rule. He is driven by jealousy, pure and simple.

Weapons and Abilities
Starscream is one of the powerful Decepticons, possessing twin Null-Rays mounted on his arms, they worked like very powerful blasters. He is also incredibly fast and maneuverable, able to fly up to Mach 2 or greater in jet mode. That said, Starscream is not very durable compared to Megatron or Lugnut and can be knocked out of action - if you can hit him. Starscream possesses another ability - a sonic scream.

Starscream has shown some military strategic ability, though not to the extent of Megatron's. He could also retract his hands and extend energon blasters from his forearms where his hands usually were. He lacked much physical power in Cybertronian terms, but he was very speedy and agile.

Weaknesses
Overall, his cowardly nature and his inability to inspire the Decepticon troops was what caused most of his plans to go awry. But his biggest weakness was frankly, himself. His enormous ego, backstabbing ways and plans of grandeur often caused him to overlook important details and potential consequences which usually came back to haunt him. His ego allowed Dreadwing and Optimus to get the better of him when he stole the Apex Armor. He was also incredibly insecure although his insecurity made him unpredictable.
