Makeshift

Makeshift once started life as a Scraplet drone, always doing the bidding of the Scraplet Queen. When he began displaying behavior that was worrying to Scraplets, he was dumped elsewhere, like an ant with cordyceps. The symptoms he displayed were his own intelligence and his own ideas. When he wandered, he happened across a chamber filled with protoforms, Cybertronian newborns with no Spark. He bit into one and then merged with it. The resulting action liquidized the protoform and absorbed all the others into itself. The Scraplet’s mind was then introduced to new ways of thinking and soon wound up inadvertently contacting Unicron. Unicron played on the Scraplet’s desire to do his own thing, promising him freedom from drudgery and order. That sealed the deal and the Scraplet became the feared shape-shifting spy and assassin, Makeshift. He usually hung out with the Decepticons, then abandoned them. That led to his old body being destroyed and he was back to being a Scraplet, albiet a talking one. He got his body back when he made it to Mobius and took the protoform cargo of a crashed ship under the command of Starscream’s old Mini-con partner, Zapmaster. He still failed to get the Chaos Emerald and was punished for his failure, as were the other Terrorcons. He then saw his master rise and take control of Mobius. During the Year of Unicron, he was killed by Bumblebee as he wielded the reforged Skyboom Shield. He rotted in Hell for a while until the Author offered him and his friends godhood. He accepted and was restored to life. Now he’s after the pipsqueak who killed him.
