| The name or term "Silverbolt" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Silverbolt (disambiguation). |
- Silverbolt is a Maximal from the Beast Era portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Silverbolt (also Silver Bolt) is the leader of the Maximal High Council, but his heritage as one of the very first proto-formers predates even the foundation of the Maximal faction on the post-war Cybertron.[1]
Alongside Prowl and Ironhide, Silverbolt contributes his swiftness to the new Maximal gestalt warrior Magnaboss.[2]
Fiction
Beast Wars: Uprising
Silver Bolt was among the eldest of the new generation of Cybertronians, created through the energon matrix before Maxima and Preditron orchestrated the rise of factions among the offspring races. He was once a professor at Crystal City's Drouhard University before eventually rising to become senior member of the Maximal High Council, one of the puppet ruling bodies under the Builders' domination. When the Grand Uprising began, the council eventually orchestrated the rise of an independent Maximal Nation in the Tagon Heights region, bringing the Maximal Command Security Force and many civilian Maximals with them.
Silver Bolt led the High Council's debate over what to do over the rise of the Vehicons. Airazor proposed joining Lio Convoy as he asked in attacking the Builder Assembly directly, Santon preferred trusting in their brokered neutrality, Lio Minor wanted to bunker in and defend their own territory, while Tigatron was undecided. The vote changed when Cheetor and Preditron arrived from the front lines with first hand reports about how serious the Vehicon threat was. Silver Bolt called for a ruling, and all but Santon agreed to join with Lio Convoy's advance. Derailment
