The mysterious future-Predacon '''Antagony''' is the [[Herald Maximo]] of the fearsome Predacon warlord [[Shokaract]], second only to Shokaract himself. She is utterly ruthless and without a shred of pity or mercy, and harbors a secret death-feud against the upstart Predacon [[Cataclysm (BW)|Cataclysm]] who threatens her position. Though utterly loyal to Shokaract, she will do anything short of open revolt to make sure she remains the Herald Maximo. Antagony's armor makes her virtually invulnerable to pain and it has been speculated that she enjoys inflicting it so much just so she can attempt to understand the utterly alien sensation.

The time-traveling Antagony described herself as [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s doom, his destruction, and his worst enemy. Megatron naturally assumed this meant she was [[Raksha]]. Antagony corrected this misunderstanding. {{storylink|Visitations}}

====Tales of the Beast Wars====
In the 32nd century, Antagony rose to become one of the elite [[Herald of Shokaract|Heralds of Shokaract]]. Ambitious and coveting the title of [[Herald Maximo]], Antagony quickly forged a mutual hatred with her rival for the position, [[Cataclysm (BW)|Cataclysm]]. Their private feuding nearly went public during the all-important [[Horus Campaign]]. [[Horus]] was an immensely powerful warlord and self-proclaimed god who drew limitless power from the sun itself, and opposed Shokaract's expansion. Whereas Antagony committed her forces to an elaborate diversion in order to get in close and battle Horus face-to-face, Cataclysm simply blew up the sun. With his power source gone, Horus quickly fell before Antagony, but her personal victory was stolen from her, as Shokaract gave credit to both her and Cataclysm for the win. Antagony and Cataclysm continued their vendetta, with Antagony scoring several minor victories. First, she arranged for Cataclysm's favored [[Cub|fission-brother]] to be given a nearly impossible assassination before he could prove his worth as a potential Herald. She also exposed Cataclysm's fear of time travel, thus securing a prized mission for herself. {{storylink|Herald, Covenant, Schism, Paradox|Herald}}

Traveling back in time, Antagony was seeking to preserve the [[Unicron|Dark Essence]]. The Maximals [[Packrat]] and [[Onyx Primal]] managed to temporarily divert her attention towards [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], but Megatron in turn painted the incoming [[Optimus Primal]] as his ally, leading Antagony to attack him. She was damaged in battle with Primal, and fell at Megatron's feet. She briefly attempted to take [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]] hostage in order to make Megatron back off, and it surprisingly worked for a few moments...but then a stray cloud of dust made her sneeze and blow Wazzzzpinator's head clean off. This last energy discharge consumed what was left of her energy, and she went into [[stasis lock]]. {{storylink|Visitations}}

[[Image:Antagony megatron.jpg|left|180px|thumb|Megatron can't refuse to feel the eye boobies.]]

Megatron spent long hours in his torture chamber attempting to break Antagony and uncover her secrets. When conventional methods failed, he turned towards one of [[Tarantulas]]'s favorite toys -- a [[mind-drill]] that employed invasive nano-probes. Antagony ultimately succumbed to the nano-invasion, but a failsafe device built into her skull by Shokaract utterly destroyed her mind before Megatron could retrieve any useful information. {{storylink|Herald, Covenant, Schism, Paradox|Herald}}

Antagony continued to serve Shokaract even after death. Once Shokaract himself traveled back in time to the [[Reaching the Omega Point|Omega Point]] in order to protect the Dark Essence, he was assaulted by the united Beast Warriors and [[Covenant]]. To clear away the distractions, Shokaract recreated Antagony and Cataclysm to attend his will. Both eventually perished in battle, Antagony at the hands of Leonicus and Ariex. {{storylink|Terminus}}

Antagony was not an agent of [[Shokaract]] from the future as she believes at all, but in reality was an experimental creation of the [[Vok]] sent through various realities by those enigmatic aliens to cause trouble and test the limits of the Cybertronian organism. {{storylink|Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook #1}}

Meanwhile, Antagony '''''is''''' a Herald of Shokaract and ultimately, [[Unicron]]. When the vessel for Unicron's return engaged the Maximals in battle, Antagony and the other Heralds distributed [[Angolmois]] energy capsules amongst Cybertron's population in an effort to sow dissent and chaos. The Heralds were defeated and ultimately fled when [[Magmatron]] pulled Shokaract into limbo and convinced him to destroy himself to prevent Unicron's victory. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 4|The Ascending #4}}
