I still have yet to come up with the details around the RiD, Armada, Energon and Cybertron versions. But anyways... What do you think so far? Also there will be alterations to both versions of Shadow and Grim Shadow once I at long last decide to reveal the details of Shatter.

I have not revealed the details of Shatter to anyone to date aside from an extremely select few people. But the details of all the others are thus:
Shade is an Autobot loyal to the cause. He follows orders and always does his best to fit in wherever he is. Even if that means conforming to an ideal against his own personal views.
Shadow is the result of a wish from his previous form, Shatter. Even though he is a Maximal, his activities tend to suggest otherwise. He does not know anything of his past and this tends to alienate him.
Shadow (TM)'s alienation setting in a great deal after the energy wave that turned all of the non-protoform Maximals and Predacons into Transmetals, he grows even more distant from his fellow Maximals. Eventually he ends up only fighting for the cause when he has the need for vengance against the Predacons. Aside from that Shadow tends to go on his own path, typically not even residing within the Maximal's base of operations. Shadow is also the only Transmetal to have no beast form, but, instead, a modified vehicular mode which contains elements of his previous beast mode.
After Shadow (TM) is thought dead he awakens. Though not long after the blow that supposedly killed him. Shadow watches from the shadows as Optimus Primal (TM) takes on the spark of the original Oprimus Prime and becomes Optimal Optimus. An idea immediately sparking in Shadow's mind along with feeling abandoned as he is unaware of the Maximals actual thoughts, he goes off deeper into the Arc and finds the Decepticon air commander, Starscream. Shadow accesses Stacrscream's chest port and opens it, taking the great warrior's spark into himself. This pushes Shadow's body to new limits and forces him to also remember his past. Arising from the pain of the changes, Shadow stands tall and mighty. The changes have gone far beyond that of merely cosmetic and have turned him into a newly made (yet very masculine looking) female form. Shadow renames herself to Grim Shadow and heads out to reveal herself to the Maximals, declaring vengance upon them for abandoning her.
Once outside of the cave which the Arc is within, Grim Shadow seeks and finds Megatron (TM) of the Predacons. She swiftly expresses her great power (that is only rivled by Optimal Optimus) over Megatron. Though she does not overthrow him as Predacon commander. Instead she strikes a deal with him. One that is win/win for him.
After the Maximals victory over the Predacons as they begin leaving Nexus Earth, Megatron (TM2) is forcedly strapped to the hull of their escape ship with Grim Shadow tied up inside. As Megatron makes his escape from the front of the escape ship, Grim Shadow manages to make her own escape and tears through the ship. She leaves through an air lock hatch, which is quickly closed up by a secondary set of doors behind her.
As both Megatron and Grim Shadow exist the warp through time and space, Megatron swiftly turns to his ex-body gaurd and betrayer and asks her why he should allow her to continue existing. Grim Shadow falls to her knees, looking down upon the ground and says "Because I only want you to rule the universe." Megatron, still wary of Grim Shadow's words, decides to allow her to remain alive - for the moment. After all he can still use her.
After a swift victory over Cybertron and all still on it, Megatron again asks Grim Shadow why he should allow her to remain. Grim Shadow responds by asking him to rip her spark out of her and to implant it in a pure mechanical body - even if that means making her an unquestioning, loyal drone. Megatron grins with glee as he does so. And thus Jaded Shade comes into existence.
I still have yet to come up with the details around the RiD, Armada, Energon and Cybertron versions. But anyways... What do you think so far? Also there will be alterations to both versions of Shadow and Grim Shadow once I at long last decide to reveal the details of Shatter.
