Raksha

Raksha (yes, that is her real name) was a prominent figure in Transformers fandom, circa the mid-1990s. She was controversial due to her opinions and actions supporting (her view of) the Decepticons in the original cartoon and dislike for later media, such as Beast Wars.

She created the Nightracer character and organized BotCon 1995.

Fiction

Beast Wars: Visitations script reading

Megatron mistook the Predacon Antagony for Raksha on their first meeting. Neither Raksha nor Antagony would comment when later asked about the incident.

The time-traveling Antagony described herself as Megatron's doom, his destruction, and his worst enemy.

Megatron naturally assumed this meant she was Raksha (his worst enemy). Antagony corrected this misunderstanding.

(Note: It is currently believed, based on various metatextual elements from the Visitations script, that the Raksha Megatron refers to is the well-known Transformers fan, and not a heretofore-unseen Predacon rival of Megatron. This is one of several examples of fourth-wall breaking in Visitations.

A similar homage was written for the Beast Wars episode, "Coming of the Fuzors", but she declined the honor.)
