Bio[]
Nightstalker was once the partner of Ravage. His devotion to his superiors, however, exceeds even the Decepticon's — Nightstalker will unhesitatingly sacrifice his own well-being to save those he has sworn to protect.
History[]
Nightstalker, along with his partner Ravage, was bodyguard to the last surviving Overlord, an Autobot ruler who had grown so old and enfeebled that he needed constant re-energizing life support to stay alive. When the Overlord visited the city-state of Tarn, war broke out between it and its neighbor, Vos, forcing the Overlord to retreat to his own home in Iacon. Accompanied by Optimus Prime and a pre-Decepticon Megatron, the Overlord almost made it — but Tarn's forces tracked him down and demolished the bridge to Iacon before he could cross, trapping him and his retinue. Like all of the Overlord's bodyguards, Nightstalker possessed a powerful last-resort self-destruct mechanism, and in a display of extreme loyalty to his charge, he now used it: detonating himself and taking out all of Tarn's forces with him.
Nightstalker's sacrifice would be in vain: the Overlord died soon afterwards from energon deficiency after Ravage betrayed him and sided with Megatron, refusing to give up his own energy to sustain the old, rusting fool. |State Games|
