The decepticons were military hardware built by the quintessons. Being programmed for
war they typically
fight to secure the land and wipe out the enemy. Sold to the highest bidder
alien races bought them and used them as soldiers to win wars. They were also used by the quintessons as soldiers to watch over cybertron and protect the quintesson rulers. Alongside the quintesson guardian robots. The counter part to the decepticons were the peaceful autobots who were built to be workers. The autobots were consumer goods products for the quintessons. When transforners started gaining sentience, and started developing emotions, they started realizing they were slaves. An autobot named
A3 who would later be known as Aloha Trion
rose up as an autobot resistance leader. The Autobots and Decepticons united and overthrew their quintesson slave masters who had become abusive,
petty and indifferent to the emotional needs of their slaves. The autobots established a democratic
society. Unfourtunately being built and programmed for
war this did not suit the Decepticons. Under the autobot rule they would become workers or just non violent peacekeepers. This contradicted the decepticons programmed instincts and their
culture. In
time the Decepticobs came to view the autobots as oppressors. If A3 could turn the Autobot slave brand into a symbol of
freedom. The Decepticons would turn the decepticon badge into a symbol that represents that they are the rulers and will never be slaves again.
