Fiction

Animated cartoon

Under the leadership of Devron, the Destrons—formed out of several factions, including the once-proud Malignus—defeated the brutal Protectobots in the Third Cybertronian War. The peace remained uneasy. The Autobots would later displace the Protectrons and rise to power, and at the end of the Age of Expansion the Destrons felt they were doing all the work of defending the Autobot Commonwealth for too few benefits.

Later, as tension between the Autobots and the Destrons grew, the Decepticons arose as a subfaction of the Destrons, led by Megazarak. The AllSpark Almanac IIThe Complete AllSpark Almanac
