Malware

A former Scientist, Malware was the founder of the Maladroid faction and leader of the Maladroid Enclave. Like Megatron would do after him, He founded the Maladroids in order to protest the inequality that Functionism Brough to Cybertron, unlike Megatron however, he and the Maladroids never became as popular and influential as him.

He's also a Shifter

History:

Malware was forged during the Ending days of the Guardian-Malignus war and became a scientist. During the Early Nominus Prime era he would form the Maladroids after seeing the corruption Functionism brought upon his world, during the Zeta Prime era he and the Maladroids left Cybertron due to crackdowns, and moved to Pyrovar where they founded the Maladroid Enclave.

When Megatron and his crew on the Nemesis arrived in the Pyrovar system, he summoned Megatron and had him come to his throne room for a conversation, during that conversation he rejected any idea of joining the War on the Decepticons side, though he said he would give the Allspark to Megatron if he or his forces found it[Trip to Pyrovar]

Notes:

He's based of BWU Malware
