Fiction
Beast Wars: Uprising
Override was once an Autobot soldier in the Great War. Centuries later, her body was barely functional, and the only source of fulfillment she could get was watching her descendants, the Maximals, fight to the death against Predacons.
Override was the administrator of the Dodecahex Arena. Once, a contestant tried to escape the arena into the river flowing through Dodecahex. Afterwards, Override seeded the river with alloygators and oxide sharks to prevent repeat incidents.
She was overseeing the fateful 1924th Games when Lio Convoy sneaked a team of rebels led by Blackarachnia into the broadcast center. Blackarachnia's team members took out Override's MCSF guards while Blackarachnia herself held Override at gunpoint to stop the Builder from activating the automated defense systems. As Blackarachnia's team took control of the broadcasting equipment to continue focusing on Lio Convoy, Override asked why the Maximals were doing such things to their ancestor. Blackarachnia merely replied that the impending announcement was too important to risk letting a Builder jam it. Broken Windshields

Override was the leader of Velocitron, where she was born. When battling combiners from Cybertron briefly touched upon Velocitron, Knock Out and Moonracer investigated the footprints left behind and went to report it to Override. All That Remains Her power over the planet was not absolute as she was having to share some leadership with her rival, Ransack, who was threatening to take her position completely in the next Speedia race.

When Moonracer explained Velocitronian society to her new Camien ally Windblade, Override was one of the prominent Velocitronians who Moonracer envisioned. Windblade vol. 2 #4
As leader, Override would grant a request of whoever won the Benefit 500, so Windblade and Moonracer got Blurr into the race in hopes of convincing Override to have included Velocitron in the Council of Worlds. Override was initially unimpressed by Blurr's refusal to fight back against the other racers, but was won over by his flashy victory brought about by Windblade messing with the racetrack's ramps. Upon hearing their request, she asked the audience to vote through applause on whether or not to honor it, and they voted yes. Race Against the Light
