![]() ![]() Soundwave was the most vocal member of the council in trying to find something, anything, to strive for and renew the population's interest. What followed was the so-called Age of Rust, where Cybertron failed to find new inspiration after the disastrous end of their colonization program, and a metaphorical rust settled in to the population as well. The council made the dark decision to destroy the space bridges, cutting their colonists off forevermore. A Rust Plague sprang up on the colonies, virulent and incurable. Soundwave was present at the lighting of the ceremonial torch that carried the spark of the Well to the first colony world of Archon.īut then, disaster. A mechanism was even discovered for carrying the Well's life-giving power to other worlds, allowing energon and Cybertronian life to flourish there as well. A Space bridge network was used in conjunction with cyberforming equipment to create Cybertronian colonies, carrying Cybertronians to the stars. A scientist named Shockwave was the first to translate the Quintesson written language for the rebels, and Soundwave's surveillance abilities acquired this information for the council as well.Īfter the Quintessons were eventually overthrown, Soundwave and the council ushered in the Golden Age of Cybertron, reverse-engineering Quintesson technology and making their own innovations. ![]() Although the council kept their true intentions secret, active cells of rebellion broke out independently on Cybertron. An election was held that named Sentinel Zeta as Prime, and Soundwave became a member of his council of thirteen.Īs the age went on, however, Sentinel and his council became suspicious of the Quintessons and ultimately began to plot against the totalitarian rule of these "benevolent invaders". As the Quintessons took control of Cybertron, they helped establish civilization across the planet, and a ruling body of Cybertronians to oversee the day-to-day activities the Quints wished the Cybertronians to perform. Soundwave emerged from the Well of All Sparks sometime during or before the Age of Wrath. 2.10 Transformers Prime: Decepticon Strike.2.8 Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark.2.6 Transformers Prime: Terrorcon Defense.2.5 Transformers Prime: Battle For Energon.2.2 Transformers: War for Cybertron (DS).2.1 Transformers: War for Cybertron (Xbox 360/PS3/PC).1.5 Transformers: The Ultimate Pop-Up Universe.He is also adept in his use of GroundBridges during combat, dealing many a foe a frustrating defeat by virtue of them simply not being able to get to him.Īlthough he usually works with Laserbeak, Soundwave's range of Mini-Con subordinates also includes Rumble, Frenzy, Ravage, Ratbat, Buzzsaw, Zori, Stuntwing, Trickout, Hi-Test, and Goldgear. This allows him to spy on every being on the planet in the hopes of picking up Autobot-related communications. Soundwave has the ability to receive transmissions from anywhere on the planet, bar the shielded Autobot Base. Primus help you if you're in the way or you are his mission. You're not a part of his mission and not worth considering. If he doesn't personally harm you during an outing, don't consider it an act of mercy or decency. Soundwave wouldn't be caught dead employing Bond villain tactics he is concise and pragmatic in all of his endeavors. It's not just loyalty to Megatron that makes Soundwave such an effective soldier, however. As long as Soundwave is around, Megatron has nothing to fear. While others may have officially held the rank of second-in-command, Soundwave may be the true bearer of that distinction, out of sheer loyalty to the Decepticon leader. This undying loyalty to his master, as well as their long history together, has won him a high position in the Decepticon hierarchy. Even a treacherous schemer like Starscream has very good reason to fear Soundwave his ferocity and strength from his gladiator days have not lessened in the slightest, rendering him a deadly foe to any Autobot, or treacherous Decepticon seeking to usurp Megatron. Indeed, this applies to every soldier amongst the Decepticon ranks. Soundwave often finds himself acting as a restraint on Starscream, reining in his rather volatile emotions, and ensuring that Starscream's less than subtle ambitions are held in check. He just sneaks about, patiently looking for Autobot transmissions and creeping you out. He was never very chatty, but these days, on Earth, he's become near silent, communicating by playing back recordings of other people's conversations. One of Megatron's earliest followers, and, many believe, instrumental to his rise, he uses his tentacles and a veritable army of Mini-Con Deployers to learn everything there is to know about his allies and his enemies. Soundwave (aka Soundblaster) is the spy master of the Decepticons.
