- —Starscream
Starscream is one of the main antagonists of the Transformers series. He appeared in the 17th episode of Death Battle, Starscream VS Rainbow Dash, where he fought against Rainbow Dash from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series.
History
Originally a Cybertronian scientist and explorer, Starscream joined the Decepticons when the Autobot and Decepticon war broke out, finding the life of a warrior to be far more exciting. Soon enough, he rose up to the Decepticons' air commander and second-in-command to their tyrannical leader, Megatron. In his, Starscream has attempted time and time again to usurp power from Megatron, but with very little success, even blatantly stating to Megatron's face that he will one day overtake him. While cowardly, his silver tongue has saved him time and time again, even in death, where he would survive within his own spark, possessing other machines to continue attempt at power. After a struggle with the Autobots, the two autonomous armies would continue their battle on Earth, and Starscream continues his quest for his self proclaimed "destiny". And by possessing a seemingly immortal spark, it is apparent that Starscream will continue to try and achieve greater power and shows no signs of stopping. Only Primus knows why Megatron still keeps him around...
