- Legonis is a Decepticon from the Marvel portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Legonis is a member of the ruling Triumvirate who seized control of the Decepticons after the (second) death of Straxus. He is arrogant, lazy, and believes in a rather complacent method of Decepticon rule on Cybertron. He tended to sit back and let the other two do most of the talking, making him probably the laziest of the lazies.

[edit]
An unspecified amount of time after the (second) death of Straxus, a triumvirate of Decepticons, ingeniously calling themselves the Triumverate, came to power as the new rulers of Cybertron. Legonis, Octus and Seizer ruled together from their palace at the city Helex, sharing a three-seater throne. Legonis had the right seat (stage-left).
As rulers of Cybertron the Triumverate were too lazy for active aggression against the Autobots. Instead they spent their time enjoying arena fights between Autobot prisoners and powerful Decepticon warriors (such as Quake), even contemplating pitting Decepticon against Decepticon should they run out of prisoners, rather than going out to get more.
When a clone of Megatron (it's complicated) arrived on Cybertron with Ravage in tow, he was horrified with the state of things and challenged the Triumverate's rule.
Legonis shoved Megatron into the gladiatorial arena, where the latter bashed up a few Decepticons (including Quake, the schmuck) before making a speech about Decepticon values. Realizing that they hated not going out and killing Autobots, the Decepticons turned on the Triumverate for being lazy bozos.
The Triggercons shot the Triumverate in the backs, killing them. Legonis was blasted by Ruckus, leaving little but his leg-on-'is torso. The Fall and Rise of the Decepticon Empire.

Notes
[edit]- Octus (Octavius), Legonis (Lepidus) and Seizer (Caesar) are a parody of (or perhaps tribute to) the ruling Triumvirate of Rome after the death of Julius Caesar.
- Unlike Octus and Seizer, Legonis's robot mode has fewer obvious altmode cues. His stomach seems to have a strangely-shaped gun turret on it, and his arms and legs might be treads...?
