Roadblock is the boogeyman of the Decepticon Army. Squad leaders keep their subordinates in line by using Roadblock as a threat—"March in a straight line while ransacking the city, or I'll have you transferred to Roadblock's command." Roadblock is utterly without fear in battle, and demands nothing less from the soldiers under his command. Many have theorized that Decepticons charging the Autobot position may actually be running away from Roadblock rather than towards the enemy.
