	'''Heavywait''' is a ~~beefy believer~~ in the ~~Decepticon~~ cause.		Back when the [[Decepticon]]s were just a two-bit gang of malcontents, '''Heavywait''' was already leveraging her black market connections to supply [[Megatron (G1)\|Megatron]] and his future allies with the big guns they'd need to effectively wage war—at a discount, no less. When the nascent Autobot-Decepticon conflict boiled over into all-out war, Heavywait joined the Decepticons; unlike of her comrades, Heavywait is a loyal, disciplined soldier who genuinely believes in the cause.

			Of course, "loyalty" and "pragmatism" are two different things. Heavywait's smart enough to keep her ''best'' toys for herself—in particular, she's fond of her [[fusion gun]], a massive two-handed rifle that gives her the edge in most firefights.

			Before the war, Heavywait was a black-market arms dealer who supplied the earliest Decepticons with illegal weapons. On [[Earth]], Heavywait and a number of other low-ranking Decepticons were recruited by [[Soundwave (G1)\|Soundwave]] to keep an eye on [[Starscream (G1)\|Starscream]]'s latest scheme and undermine his operation from within. After infiltrating his team, the group helped recover some [[Polarity gauntlet]]s from an ancient Cybertronian shipwreck, and came into conflict with [[Rollbar (G1)\|Rollbar]] after foiling Starscream's attempted doublecross. {{storylink\|Catch a Falling Starscream}}
