- The Triumverate [sic] are Decepticon leaders from the Generation 1 continuity family.
After the (second) death of Straxus, a coalition of leaders calling themselves the Triumverate seized control of the Decepticons. Their rule was one of arrogant decadence, dominated by gladiatorial fights for their amusement rather than waging war upon the Autobots. Ultimately, their reign ended when they finally pushed the wrong Decepticons around.
What relation they have with Decepticon Imperial Headquarters or the Decepticon High Council is unknown.
Fiction
Marvel UK comics continuity
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.
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 Straxus-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. Octus baited Megatron, calling him the Decepticon cause's "most celebrated LOONY!"
Legonis shoved Megatron into the area (of the arena), where cannon-boy bashed up a few Decepticons (including Quake, the schmuck) before making a speech about Decepticon values. Realising 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. The Fall and Rise of the Decepticon Empire
Notes
- 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.
