Thundercracker is a Decepticon Seeker that claims the skies as his arena. He looks down in contempt on those who cannot leave the ground -- he considers them lesser beings. He will often attack the flightless beings below him for no other reason than to satisfy his scorn. A fellow Seeker and loyal to a fault, Thundercracker is Starscream's personal choice for Second in Command once he takes control. He is a warrior, but appears to regard fighting as more of a competition than a reason for blood.
