Scourge (G1)
| The name or term "Scourge" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Scourge (disambiguation). |
- Scourge is a Decepticon in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Scourge is Galvatron's implacable tracker and leader of his own wolf-pack of huntsmen, the deadly Sweeps. He was created by Unicron from the remains of a dead Decepticon. Though quite powerful in his own right, Scourge generally acts as a near subordinate to Cyclonus, and despite his leadership of the Sweeps is generally content to take orders from others. Scourge tends to grumble and complain a bit (a habit sometimes shared by his Sweeps.) Immensely powerful like all the Unicronian Decepticons, arrogance is his only true weakness.
