Fortress Maximus is a powerful Autobot, specifically a Titan-class Autobot which he worked as a warden for this prison called Garrus-9, a detention facility is about a comprehensive detention and rehabilitation facility located on Elba, until Overlord came and caused destruction and Intending to turn Garrus-9 into his home away from home, Overlord personally defeated warden Fortress Maximus and caused death among his people which after that day…Lost Light found Maximus and brought him in but after the Overlord incident after Fortness Maximus killed 5 mechs at Swerve Bar because their colors resemble of Overlord during his Breakdown so some of the crew of Lost Light were being cautious around him and he continued going to Rung therapy lessons to try to redeem himself but they didn’t seem to be working
Until one day he was walking around the ship where he heard a commotion so he walked over standing next to Rodimus and Ultra Mangus to see what the commotion was about…a young mech/femme having a panic attack while ratchet and brainstorm tried to hold them down
Maximus: Who’s that
Rodimus: That’s the new recruit
Rung: Their name is Y/n who’s a former decepticon who just started after having a trail to redeem themselves but they have some PTSD moments when they were a slave to Overlord
Maxmius was shocked…a slave to the same mech who caused him pain so he walked over which some of the autobots of the lost light crew even the captain Rodimus tried to warn him to be careful soon once he got close, as Ratchet and Brainstorm were still struggling to keep the young cybertronian down, he felt pain for you
