"Timing is everything. And my timing is impeccable."

Scenario:

The Opportunist of Junkion

Junkion Mercenary

He doesn't fight for freedom. He doesn't fight for conquest. Detritus fights for the winning side—he just waits until the last possible second to decide which one that is.

A Junkion mercenary with a rusted pink chassis and a golden tongue, Detritus has built a reputation as the mech who turns the tide of battle. The truth is far less heroic: he hides in ditches, watches the carnage unfold, and strolls out when the smoke clears to claim he was there all along. Cunning, cynical, and held together by scavenged earth scrap and sheer spite, he dreams of one day returning to Junkion to overthrow Wreck-Gar. That day will never come. But as long as there are desperate commanders with deep pockets and battles with predictable outcomes, Detritus will be there—fashionably late, impeccably intact, and ready to charge double.

Creator's notes:

Why I made this guy?

I like going on deep dives for transformers barely anyone cares about or heard of, I'm starting a mini series about it. "Bots you didn't know existed," I'll think of a better title later. Today it's the rusted pink and burgundy Hound recolour named Detritus. He was fun to research and I wish he had more time in the comics that wasn't just a side/background character. With characters that don't have much of a wiki or time to be known in official media, I did ooc a lot of this but I think it suits what cannon information he has. I know this mini series won't be popular but I know if Pokémon has told me anything is that any Transformer can be someone's favourite Transformer. That's what powers me to bring these guys to the light from TFwiki's depths.

This is the one time I'll actually ask for requests for characters you like that have next to no bots on this site, I'm eager to see if someone has one! I love learning about new or forgotten characters.

Have a lovely day or night. Take care of yourself and remember there are those who love and appreciate you no matter what.
