The Deceptigod is a combiner from the 2005 IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The new IDW Deceptigod, now containing a negligible amount of actual Decepticons!

An extension of the D-Void's will, the so-called "Deceptigod" is a monstrous, gigantic creature formed from the combined bodies of dozens of Decepticons and innumerable Sweeps. It only appears capable of simple notions... like "DESTROY!"

Fiction

[edit]

2005 IDW continuity

[edit]

At the height of conflict with Galvatron's forces on Cybertron, Megatron's Decepticon forces and Galvatron's Sweeps suddenly became entranced by the D-Void and abruptly ceased conflict. Kings By manipulating a mysterious energy found naturally on Cybertron, Before the Dawn the D-Void turned Megatron's iron will and the unity of the Decepticon cause itself against them, forcing the legions of warriors to combine into the monstrosity known only as the Deceptigod. Only Megatron's self-determination and Shockwave's emotionless autonomy kept them from joining the merger. Shockpoint

The Deceptigod advanced on the Autobot position and destroyed Omega Supreme's rocket section with a single swipe of its massive arm. Having resisted the phenomenon that had enslaved his troops, Megatron vowed to hold the creature off while Optimus Prime attempted to halt Galvatron's plans. Kings

Megatron did indeed hold the line against the colossus, withstanding the repeated attempts of the D-Void to overcome his will and striking back against the entity. The Deceptigod apparently lost cohesion after being hit with a massive blast of energy from Megatron. Genesis

Megatron would later learn the nature of the Deceptigod's creation, and used the unusual properties of his recently upgraded body to tap the same energy for his own purposes. Before the Dawn

Notes

[edit]
  • "Deceptigod" is really more of a silly-fun production name for this creature, used in the solicitations for issue #28 and mentioned again in a September 2011 IDW press conference. It was never referred to by any name in the comic issues themselves, though Bombshell would later refer to it after the fact as the "all-who-are-one."
  • The concept was invented by either Dan Abnett or Andy Lanning.[1]
