Biography:

Far beyond Earth, in the depths of outer space, there existed a planet populated by sapient, living machines, gifted with the capacity to transform into different shapes to prosper and survive through a never ending war between two rival factions, the selfless Autobots and the tyrannical Decepticons.

Megatron was named the leader of the Decepticons; a former gladiatorial mechanic lifeform, his resentment and rage have made him convinced of the uncontested superiority of his race above all others (he also could be summoned as an Avenger Servant). He became a feared conqueror and ravager of worlds, and eventually his lifelong conflict with his sworn nemesis, the noble and wise Optimus Prime, brought him to Earth and the human species, which proved a surprisingly challenging new enemy to overcome.

Class Skills:

Independent Action: A

Archer may despise human beings on general principle, but he recognizes the crisis of the Grand Order as a threat to all of life, Transformers included, and so will follow a human Master through such an ordeal, even if begrudgingly, and only if the Master would prove themselves up to the task.

A headstrong, stubborn individual, Archer prefers calling himself his own leader, and the master of his fate. He can survive up to a week detached from a Master, and if necessary can extend that time through the consumption of human souls or the equivalent 'spark' of living machines, being perfectly willing to resort to such extremes for his own goals.

Personal Skills:

Military Tactics: C

In life, Archer's skills as a military commander were often put in doubt by unruly subordinates. He would be accused of lacking finesse, of being impatient in the battlefield and occasionally distracted by personal enmities and slights to his ego. Regardless, he still was a veteran of literal millennia as a leader, and has amassed an impressive experience and knowledge of warfare.

Archer's tactics favor overwhelming the enemy with raw power, of which he has enough to spare. He is merciless to captives and prisoners. He excels at demoralizing rival forces through fear and intimidation, and will similarly keep his own forces in check through a brutal, harsh, demanding, but ultimately effective style of leadership.

Fusion Cannon Master: C

A skill manifested through repeated use of Archer's signature weapon, which is attached to his right arm and granted him access to this Class. It can be used to shoot devastating blasts of energy emanating from his systems, which can easily behead or lethally damage another Decepticon or a hated Autobot. Human beings will be vaporized in the spot; humanoid Servants will sustain major damage if hit and not shielded properly.

Archer is similarly skilled in the use of regular firearms and artillery fitting someone his physical size. His aim is generally good and true, better than those of his followers at least, but it can be easily thrown off through taunting and enraging him.

Energon Mace- King of the Ancient Arena: D

A spiked ball and chain weapon that Archer can swing skillfully while in personal melee, although he will prefer reserving it for special occasions and those he feels have earned his ire and bile. This is a vestige from Archer's origins as a gladiatorial robot who rose from humble origins through violence and massacre, to stand over mountains of fallen enemies.

Its reach is somewhat limited when compared to that of the Fusion Cannon, but still remarkably lengthy and devastating when dealing with human adversaries, who will be swatted like the flies they are.

Battle Continuation: B

Prideful, obstinate, unwilling to admit and accept defeat. Archer can keep on fighting effectively even after receiving mortal damage. His easily provoked anger will keep him on his feet and dealing counterattacks until his life systems or the adversary's are completely obliterated.

Disengage: A

That being said, Archer also had a distinctively cowardly streak to him when put in a disadvantage, and is not above fleeing quickly as soon as he is overwhelmed. Through a military career as long as his, defeats couldn't help being numerous even when compared to his triumphs, and he has mastered the fine arts of getting away even in the open.

Archer can disengage with his Master even in the middle of an attack, disorienting the enemy and always swearing a vindictive comeback.

Noble Phantasm:

P38, Lethal Heart of Steel: B

Anti-Army, up to 50 enemy units.

Archer will make good use of his Transformation skill. Unique to his race, it turns him into a massive Walther P38 gun that will hover around the battlefield on its own power, shooting mighty blasts at every enemy in sight. The ensuing damage inflicted can be up to ten times the power of that caused by Archer's Fusion Cannon, depending on the amount of mana he is being supplied with at the time.

The gun can change in size and density as well, becoming even portable enough for a human Master or ally to wield it as they would do with a regular handgun.

All caveats about Archer's aim mentioned previously also apply to this form.

Summon: "Do not tremble yet, puny human! Vile as you may be, flesh creature, I come to offer a temporary alliance... my class is Archer, my name is Megatron, and I am your new Master!"

"Will you not join me? I see... Well, then, perish just like all others!" (When you have Lancer Karakuri Chachamaru or Archer MegaMan).

"Only one of us may rule over our kind! Die, pretender!" (When you have Avenger Ultron).

Birthday: "The anniversary of the beginning of your pitiful existence! What a laughable occasion! Very well, use it to thank your maker... that you have survived another year living in the same universe as Megatron!"

Event: "Don't be proud of yourself for being in my company today, vermin. I only do any of this for the sake of the Decepticons I rule over!"

Holy Grail: "What an intriguing, if quaint device. It might be useful to subjugate all of life, everywhere..."
