I've decided to post mine. I thought Caelus had started one of these but I'll just put it here. I'll do the original Covenant line up with newer members later except for Psalm. The first 3 weren't written by me, they were rewritten from my pathetic paragraph sized bios by Thunderscream. He gave me the templet and inspiration to create the rest.
Stygian Allegiance: Decepticon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Team Commander
Transformation: F-15 Eagle
“Salvation and Damnation… Both are found only with Termination.”
Profile: Mysterious, charismatic, psychotic are all apt descriptions when it comes to the founder of the Covenant of Unicron cult known to outsiders as Stygian. Because of the secretive nature of this cult, he and his followers are considered a dangerous breed, even by the Decepticons who are supposedly his allies. Many believe that Stygian’s current designation is simply another in a long line of aliases he has taken over the stellar cycles. Stygian himself rarely speaks of his history, preferring to let others speculate, and shows little emotion outside of the sheer glee he displays when strafing Autobot positions. Even his own followers aren't sure what’s flowing through his processors most of the time– except that it means trouble for anyone who crosses him.
Abilities: Choosing the abandoned remains of a Vehicon assault jet drone, Stygian has modified the form for his own use. As a result of his modifications, his vehicle form is now capable of reaching speed of up to Mach five and he often uses the resulting shock wave to scramble the circuits of any Autobot unfortunate enough to be caught in it. He’s armed with a pair of null-ray rifles that can interrupt the flow of electricity to certain circuits for up to two cycles, effectively rendering any system dependent on those circuits useless. He can also take on a limited load of undercarriage ordinance for any variety of missions.

Hell Blazer Allegiance: Binaltech Decepticon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Shock Trooper
Transformation: Dodge Viper Competition Coupe
“If you're not faster than me, your spark is mine!”
Profile: Hell Blazer came to the Covenant through a rare act of mercy. Discovered in the Badlands of Cybertron alone, damaged, and low on energon; he was rescued by the enigmatic leader of the Covenant, Stygian. To show his gratitude, Hell Blazer swore complete fidelity to the Covenant and its cause; since that time, he’s become one of that group’s staunchest supporters. A young yet competent warrior, he has quickly risen through the ranks to become one of Stygian’s most trusted followers, and he is always eager to carry out any order his savior gives him. Yet underneath his eagerness and willing nature lies a pessimistic streak, most likely caused by the experience that lead to his initial abandonment. Hell Blazer does his best to hide this flaw, especially from his mentor, whom he believes would be disappointed in his “imperfection”. What he doesn't know is that Stygian is well aware of this trait. Following the death of his lover, Hell Blazer has fallen into a deep depression and suffers from survivor's guilt. He's become more reckless in his actions and seems to be on the path to self destruction.
Abilities: In car mode, Hell Blazer can reach speeds of up to 250 mph, fast enough to catch or outrun all but the fastest pursuers. His frame is remarkably sturdy, which allows him to ram his targets at full speed with little to no harm to himself. In robot mode, he’s armed with a compressor air gun, which fires a 40,000psi blast of air that’s strong enough to splinter a grove of oaks. He can also fire an electromagnetic wave from transmitters on his back that will temporarily short circuit the electronics of enemy units.
Weakness: Hell Blazer’s pessimistic attitude can often affect his performance in battle, thus endangering his comrades. His eagerness to carry out any order without question can lead him into situations he can't quite handle, which can further negatively affect his fragile morale. He sometimes forgets to activate the shielding that protects him from his own electromagnetic weapon and ends up shorting out his own systems in the process.

Pit Demon Allegiance: Decepticon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Enforcer
Transformation: Two-headed Dragon
“Power and chaos.”
Profile: Few things in Pit Demon’s life bring a smile to his face plate as does bringing pure, unadulterated carnage to the battlefield. A sheer brute, Pit Demon is the acting enforcer of the Covenant, often acting as Stygian’s right hand ‘con. He abhors the use of ranged weapons, preferring to use his sheer strength to defeat his opponents. He'll pick a fight with just about anyone, even his fellow Decepticons, just to prove that’s he’s the toughest Decepticon ever built. Unfortunately for Pit Demon, he isn't all that intelligent, and he is often beaten by opponents who are smarter and more cunning than he is. This fact hasn't discouraged him in the least and in fact has taken this as proof of his power, as his opponent was too afraid to face him in a true fight.
Abilities: In monster or robot mode, Pit Demon’s strength is unequaled among his fellow Covenant mates. The bite from just one of his jaws can snap five feet thick steel bars and a punch from one of his fists can shatter concrete walls up to nine feet thick. A single stomp from his foot can literally split the earth beneath him and cause nearby buildings to collapse. His monster form is capable of expelling flames that burn up to ten times hotter than a gas-fueled fire, though he rarely uses this feature.
Weakness: Pit Demon’s not the brightest of Covenant and can be easily tripped up or deceived. His tendency to challenge his fellow Decepticons hasn't earned him any friends, and when he gets into trouble they aren't usually willing to come to his aid. He often underestimates the strength and abilities of his opponents. This can lead him into serious trouble, especially when he faces an opponent who prefers firepower to melee combat.

Wind Fang Allegiance: Second Generation Decepticon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Sub Commander
Transformation: Cobra F.A.N.G. III
"Underestimating me was your first, and last mistake."
Profile: The first female member of the Covenant, Wind Fang received her alternate form utilizing stolen data tracks in Stygian's possession. As a Decepticon Mercenary she leads a sub faction under Stygian's command, each member named after mythical Spawns of Unicron. She is an outgoing type and liked by most of the Covenant except the sullen Hell Blazer, as her personality grates on his nerve circuits. The fact that she not only outranks him but is also faster doesn't help matters at all. Stygian however seems to pair them together on missions a lot to Wind Fang's delight. Although she would more then likely never admit it, she's fallen very hard for Hell Blazer, and his attitude toward her hasn't derailed her secret affection. Not even her own subordinates, Earth Claw or Hydro Dragon know the depths of her love for Hell Blazer or the lengths she's willing to go to win him. She's a deadly fighter and highly intelligent warrior, despite her tendency to watch over her potential mate instead of carrying out her missions.
Abilities: Equipped with advance weaponry from the "second generation" of Transformers, Wind Fang is heavily armed and extremely dangerous. She's outfitted herself with numerous customizations including, a sound dampening field that nullifies the sounds of her rotors for soundless flight and approach. Her vehicle mode is capable of carrying a single passenger depending on their weight, in addition to being armed with air to air and air to surface missiles and variable caliber machine guns. Wind Fang is highly skilled in the Cybertronian Martial Arts favoring Metalikato, her main rotor is detachable and can be used as both a shurikan or further disassembled into twin swords.
Weakness: When paired with Hell Blazer her effectiveness is dramatically reduced as she tends to protect him rather then accomplish her mission directives. At times Hell Blazer's blunt comments effectively render her an emotional wreck and unable to function. Her Helicopter mode isn't the most powerful or durable alternate mode and she takes heavy damage when momentarily distracted by Hell Blazer. Otherwise she's a formable adversary.
Hydro Dragon Allegiance: Destron
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Amphibious Assault
Transformation: Dragon
“Conquer the seas and the rest will follow.”
Profile: Hydro Dragon is a Destron mercenary under the command of Wind Fang. He and his partner in crime, Earth Claw met her in a bar fight in Maccadams Old Oil House. Together the trio fought off a larger contingent of Autobots from various time frames and alternate realities, instigating a level 5 riot in the process. Hydro Dragon views himself as the self styled King of the Seas. He is heavily armored and resilient to most forms of attack. Although he is amphibious in nature he prefers operating in the water as opposed to on solid ground.
Abilities: In robot mode he utilizes a carbium alloy tipped Spear gun, capable of penetrating all but the toughest of armors. In Dragon mode he is swift and nimble underwater and can fire blasts of high pressurized water from his mouth. Hydro Dragon is capable of not only surviving but thriving in the crushing ocean depths of up to 2 miles, and does not suffer the after shocks of rapid surface thereby removing the need to be decompressed.
Weakness: Hydro Dragon is sluggish on dry land, which is the reason he prefers to fight underwater. His power level is also drastically reduced on solid ground, as well making him an easy target. On land he must rely on his comrades for support which is something that doesn't sit well with the otherwise competent Destron.
Earth Claw Allegiance: Destron
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Ground assault
Transformation: Tyrannosaurus Rex
“If there's a problem that pure brute force can't solve, I don't want to know about it.”
Profile: Earth Claw's strength was unmatched until coming to the Covenant and meeting Pit Demon. Although he doesn't harbor ill feelings toward him, Earth Claw regards Pit Demon as a friendly rival. His strength in robot mode is enough to shatter 3 foot thick steel in a single punch. As a T-Rex, his level of strength dramatically increases making him effectively an unstoppable Juggernaut. Unlike Pit Demon, he isn't afraid to resort to underhanded or dishonorable methods of attack. He lives for the utter destruction of his Autobot opponents and the thing that brings him the most joy in life is standing over their shattered, smoking, and lifeless bodies.
Abilities: Earth Claw is heavily armored, yet doesn't suffer from the slowdown associated with his armored status. He loves ramming himself thru both opponents and buildings and watching them topple like a house of cards. One bite from his razor sharp jaws in T-Rex mode is enough to snap most Transformers in two. Despite his brutish appearance and actions, he is actually incredibly smart and has a genius level intelligence. As a veteran of many gladiatorial contest, street fights, and battles he is an incredible fighter and a highly devastating engine of destruction.
Weakness: In rare instances Earth Claw finds himself outmatched or simply overwhelmed. He is sometimes difficult to reign in, as when he makes up his mind no force on Cybertron can force him to change it. His tendency to disregard all orders unless issued by Wind Fang reduce his effectiveness and serve to alienate him from his fellow Decepticons.
Blasphemer Allegiance: Decepticon/Predacon Alliance
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Black Ops
Transformation: Griffon
“Just because I'm grotesque, doesn't mean I'm not better then you are.”
Profile: Blasphemer is cold, calculating and utterly ruthless even by Decepticon standards. A member of the experimental first generation Predacons he is what classified files dub a "Fuzor". As a first generation Predacon he is somewhere between a normal Decepticon and Micromaster height yet his power level is that of a normal Decepticon Warrior. He and his brother Heresy were liberated from the Iacon Detention Center. As a former POW this war criminal was wanted by both Autobots and Decepticons alike for his heinous war crimes including murder of members of both factions. He is quiet and vicious, a mech not to be taken lightly for sure. His murderous tendencies stem from the fact that he originally wanted to be a jet, for him the freedom of flight is exhilarating. Blasphemer's arrogant and frankly egotistical attitude earned him the ire of both is fellow classmates and instructors at the Cybertronian Military Academy. After being assigned his new Fuzor form his mean streak only worsened as he now saw his former good looks tarnished by this "grotesque" form. A number of "training accidents" and friendly fire incidents followed him wherever he went, however the majority of them could not be proven against him due to lack of evidence.
Abilities: As a Predacon Fuzor Blasphemer is much more energy efficient then normal Decepticon Warriors. In Griffon Mode he is capable of high altitude flight in excess of 1 mile. His speed in both Beast mode and robot mode is greatly enhanced to levels matched only by the fastest of fighters. Blasphemer's Black Ops training makes him a dangerous and highly competent warrior and a deadly foe.
Weakness: Blasphemer's murderous instincts are both his greatest strength and also his greatest weakness. His reluctance to leave the battle field until every Autobot in the area is terminated sometimes causes him to be put in positions he can't win. This leaves him highly damaged in these instances, which only add to his general hatred of everyone and everything but himself. His reputation as a cold oiled murderer of even his fellow Decepticons and Predacons leaves Blasphemer with just one ally: his older brother Heresy.
Heresy Allegiance: Decepticon/Predacon Alliance
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Black Ops
Transformation: Cybertronian Ray Cannon
“Primus doesn't love you. If he did, we wouldn't exist.”
Profile: To say that Heresy is hated would be an understatement. He's one of those mechs that looks for any opportunity to speak his mind, even if it's clear that what he's saying should be kept to himself. He is insubordinate and argumentative, to such a degree that most of his fellow Decepticons get into violent counter productive verbal or physical fights with him. However in battle he becomes a different 'con. He channels his frustration into acts of unspeakable horror. Heresy is utterly remorseless and will gladly accept missions even most Decepticons would shy away from; including but not limited to: assassinations, torture, kidnapping, killing of hostages or civilians, and even extermination of his fellow Decepticons if so ordered. Heresy is a capable soldier well versed in hand to hand combat, small arms, and the rifle.
Abilities: Heresy is a powerful warrior armed with a DOL Laser Rifle, one of the most feared weapons on all of Cybertron. He's an accomplished sniper as well a master of stealth, which is a necessity for his work. In Ray Cannon mode he fires a powerful Radioactive burst capable of incinerating lighter armored opponents. Heresy has mastered a number of Cybertronian Martial Arts, but favors when it comes down to hand to hand combat.
Weakness: Heresy is one of the few Decepticons that are hated by both factions. He often finds himself outnumbered and without backup. This leaves him damaged often, a fact that only further fuels his rage.
Hymn Allegiance: Decepticon clone
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Communications Officer/Reprogrammer
Transformation: Tape Deck
“Killing is my business, and business is good.”
Profile: Hymn was cloned from a legendary Decepticon Warrior, loyalty to a strong commander is ingrained into his Spark. Like the Warrior he is cloned from he is a competent Communications Officer serving to link the Covenant in their various battles. Unbeknownst to the other members of the Covenant, he broadcasts subliminal messages over their com-links to insure loyalty to both the Covenant and to Stygian. Hymn is what humans would refer to as a Psychic, able to hack into the electrical impulses that make up the Transformer Laser Core to decipher the thoughts of those around him. He is prone to flashbacks and memories that do not belong to himself as well as having fighting experience he can't explain. Stygian has implanted blocks in Hymn's Laser Core to prevent him from using his talent on the Covenant founder. Hymn is also in the habit of assigning theme songs to his fellow Covenant mates, which has to this date been met with mixed results. Hymn has of late privately lamented not opening up to the only femme in his life he had ever cared for.
Abilities: Hymn's "psychic" talent is an invaluable tool during his battles. In both Robot mode and his tape deck form he can broadcast a signal that directly triggers the pain centers of the Transformer Laser Core. This method of attack is more effective in Hymn's alternate mode. An accomplished hacker, no computer system on Cybertron can withstand his assaults and as such he has helped Stygian compile massive data tracks pilfered from both sides of the Great War.
Weakness: Like all clone warriors, Hymn suffers from cellular instability that threatens to one day terminate him. However Stygian has devised a series of treatments to slow this process, but it is only a matter of time before he is destroyed from within. When hit with a flashback or experiencing memories of his DNA donor's past he is left disorientated and prone to system shutdown.
Napalm Barrage Allegiance: Decepticon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Fueler
Transformation: Oil Tanker
"What'll it be? Melted to molten slag or blown all to The Pit?"
Profile: Normally words like "honor", "selflessness", and "giving" aren't applied to Decepticons. This is what makes Napalm Barrage unique among the ranks of the Decepticon Empire. He's the kind of mech who would give you the last scrap of Energon he had even though he's running on empty himself. A fun loving mech's mech, Napalm Barrage enjoys nothing more then a few stiff drinks of Energon with his buddies, except perhaps what he'd call "chasing bumper." As a notorious flirt Napalm Barrage has a soft spot for all attractive femmes. Although, the few who know him best know that once he wasn't always such a good mech. He was initiated into the Covenant during the darkest chapter of his life. In those days he was a down on his luck empty hopelessly addicted to "Virus", an electronic designer drug created on Chaar in the year 2005 following the fall of the Decepticon Empire after the Battle of Cybertron. Lost and with no sense of purpose he was welcomed with open arms into Stygian's cult. After joining Napalm Barrage became close friends with the shy Hymn, taking him under his wing, and openly flirting with the quiet and mysterious Occult. Neither of his new friends knew that he was an addict until one fateful night during a near fatal "crash". Since then Hymn and Occult have made Napalm Barrage dry out and to this day he hasn't touched virus. He has instead fallen back on his two other favorite addictions: drinking and womanizing.
Abilities: As a fueler Napalm Barrage has the job of collecting and distributing Energon to his fellow comrades. In Oil Tanker mode he has a top speed of 150 mph, although it takes him some time to get up to speed. He is equipped with an array of siphons and hoses as well as specialized circuitry that can convert unconventional energy sources into Energon Cubes. He can carry up to 10 tons of fuel in his internal compartments, and is heavily armored to prevent critical damage. In some reports it has been noted that Napalm Barrage has wielded fire as a weapon, it is not currently known if this is a unique genetic quirk or some as yet unrevealed internal weapon.
Weakness: Napalm Barrage's chivalrous nature regarding femmes can easily be taken advantage of by female Autobots. With all fuelers, his very job makes him a liability in the middle of an intense firefight, as for all intents and purposes when full or even partially laden with his precious cargo he is effectively a walking bomb ready to go off. His tendency to make suicidal kamikaze rams also leads him to spend extensive time in the CR chamber. Napalm Barrage's pyromaniac tendencies tend to deplete his Energon cargo lessening his contribution to the war effort.
Psalm Allegiance: Cassettecon
Sub-Group: Covenant of Unicron
Function: Scout/Espionage
Transformation: Cassette Tape
“Mommy can I kill tonight?”
Profile: Psalm is the youngest member of the Covenant, by far, essentially a child. The end result of a tragic romance between his father and Air Convoy the leader of an independent faction of Decepticons. They met one night at a Decepticon bar and after prodding from his close friend, Napalm Barrage, the shy Hymn approached Air Convoy. Finding a lot in common the two emotionally distant Decepticons began a fragile yet special romance. Although both would later fear the growing attachment for each other they refused to regret their time together. Eventually parting ways sadly, they lost contact until on fateful evening when after breeching the Covenant's defenses and entering Hymn's personal quarters Air Convoy gave the startled Hymn the shock of his life. Holding their child, she spoke to him and gave him the hardest news in his existence. Shortly thereafter Psalm came online he was given a choice between his parents. He chose Hymn and settled into the Covenant and his new duties. Psalm is quiet and emotionally distant much like his parents. Although young he displays a deep seated depression at times. In humans this would be termed as "broken home syndrome." A neophyte to the ways of war and his own burgeoning abilities Psalm at times feels he's more of a liability then an asset.
Abilities: Psalm has inherited abilities from both of his parents and in a twist from his father's DNA donor's child. He has a weaker version of Hymn's psychic ability to hack into Transformer Laser Cores, and to also trigger the pain receptors in his targets. He can become intangible like his mother Air Convoy although the time limit is roughly halved at this point and time to 7 minutes at the most. From his "counterpart" he inherited the ability to broadcast a shrill piercing sonic attack capable of bursting the Audio Receptors of those around him.
Weakness: Psalm's depression and lack of confidence in himself are his greatest weaknesses. Like most cassettecons he's smaller, weaker, and substantially more susceptible to damage then average Transformers. When in missions with his estranged mother, Psalm will do anything to try and impress her, which typically leads to him being heavily damaged in the process. This type of abnormal behavior is atypical of Psalms' otherwise shy and laid back personality.
Although she was one of my original lineup Occult has never had a bio. I'll get around to writing her bio and the newer charector's bios eventually and post them here.
