' a warrior is worthless unless he rises above others and stands strong in the midst of the storm '

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABOUT | BIO | RULES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of Megatron's deadliest generals, Deadlock is a picture of loyalty and stalwart defense along with a razor wit, and scathing sense of humor. Both cutthroat, and honorable- the warrior has the distinction of being one of the few Decepticons that most other mechanisms can count on keeping his word.
It's just usually not in the way they thought it would be.
Highly adaptable, and remarkably intelligent, Deadlock, then Drift, managed to eke out a life in the Dead End by performing a various sundry amount of illegal services. Part of the result of that was how he met Ratchet, a soon-to-be prominent part of the mech's influences- though he wouldn't realize it at the time.
At the moment, despite Megatron's defection and current affiliation- Deadlock remains loyal to the Decepticon ideals that had so captivated him in the beginning. Both guns are ever at the ready to defend mechanisms who are being collared and yoked by others, as well as acting above other mechanisms. He won't kill what he considers innocents, but otherwise?
Anyone's fair game, regardless of their caste or function.

Current Verse (main) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drift is currently traveling in his own vessel called The Immortal Resolve Steadfast Starseeker. It's bought and paid for, lacking any affiliation or faction handles. Despite still calling himself something of a Decepticon, Deadlock is more actively aligned with the concepts of neutrality. He has no issues killing Decepticons that he feels pervert the message of the Cause, nor dispatching Autobots who pervert THEIR cause as well. He has a tally list of high-ranking Autobots and their collected badges in a trophy drawer. They're a reminder that evil can easily hide behind the façade of good.
He has had some contact with his variant of Ratchet, but the medic wants nothing to do with him after his subsequent vouching for Megatron's message. It saddens him, but it's the one wish he won't go against- despite how much he wants to return just to talk to the mech.

Will be discussed on this blog in a frank and bald manner. I wanted to go ahead and put this here so that you would have some warning of what to expect when dealing with this character. Deadlock is pretty much a mercenary with something of his own moral code. He has no issues with death, killing, or objectifying someone to the point of not even seeing them as a living creature. If this bothers you, please feel free to avoid this blog- I won't be upset, and I don't want you to be either.
------------------------------------------------ RULES ------------------------------------------------
The rules here are pretty simple:
Don’t be an asshole.
Please respect other people’s portrayals. Just because it doesn’t jive with your headcanon doesn’t make it any less valid. If it really offends you, please blacklist them. I’ll include a list of extensions that can help with here later.
Please remember that there’s an adult behind this muse, and that they do work full time, and have IRL commitments outside of the blog, so sometimes replies can get pretty late.
Mun is also ADHD, diagnosed- and occasionally either hyper-fixates or loses steam. It’s nothing you’ve done, or anything about your character- it’s just that my brain doesn’t have a middle setting.
I’m pretty Queer, so hate-speech for that is not tolerated in the slightest here. I’m also POC-friendly, and supportive, meaning any racist bullshit is gonna get booted, blocked, and reported. I don’t do that here, and I don’t take it.
Just have fun? Like, the rules are basic. Be nice, be supportive, and at the very least- make sure you protect yourself. But, again. Just have fun.
I tend not to interact with minors. It is more a legal thing than it is any sort of internal prejudice against anyone under the age of 18.
Post-Decepticon Drift does not exist here. Deadlock continued after Megatron’s fall to the Autobots, and he kept with his own interpretation of the Cause. He refuses to be that weak again.
