Jhiaxus (DW)


 * Jhiaxus is a Cybertronian and former Decepticon.

Jhiaxus is no ordinary Transformer. He possesses unusual origins compared to most of his race and has a drive to forge an united Cybertronian civilization across the known universe.

Jhiaxus is not one for improvisation. He has been denying his impulses for so long, it has weakened his ability to think on his feet in many situations. Once Jhiaxus has set a course of action, it is tough for him to diverge from his strategy.

Pre-MUX continuity
With the Decepticon conquest and occupation of Cybertron, Alpha Trion sought a solution of his own. Using the remains of a Decepticon deep-space shuttle, Alpha Trion built a Transformer and used Vector Sigma to grant his creation life. Not only did the supercomputer give the Decepticon life, but also a conscience and a need to bring all Cybertronians under the same banner and protect them.

To this end, Jhiaxus amassed a cadre of Decepticon followers willing to seek peace with Autobots who wished to return home. The then-current caretaker of Cybertron, Shockwave, opposed the visionary and his attacks led Jhiaxus to realize that the Decepticon Empire would never be a force of reunification. So Jhiaxus attacked Shockwave and his Decepticons, only to fail and his followers killed off. Jhiaxus was thought to have died in the crossfire, but he secretly went into hiding, plotting his comeback.

After having been absent from Cybertron for a very long time, Jhiaxus made a secret return. He enlisted the Battlechargers to fill him in on what he had missed. With Megatron out of the picture, and everyone else unawares, it was the perfect time to rebuild the Cybertronian Empire, with himself in control!

He teamed up with Sky-Byte, who provided him with forestonite, and Clench, who supplied him with the Firecons and blueprints stolen from Quantum Laboratories. He also sent the Battlechargers to find some personality components. They returned with a bonus surprise — an amnesiac Side Burn. They next headed for Nebulos, where Jhiaxus plans to have the Battlechargers kidnap Hi-Q to force the the Nebulon scientist to create a "second generation" of Cybertronians on Jhiaxus's secret base on the planet Qre.
