A consummate mercenary who isn't welcome in many corners of civilized society, Axer found a place for himself on post-occupation Cybertron as Banzaitron's steady right hand. A bounty hunter who values the thrill of the chase even more than the money he makes once his prey has been captured, he adapted nicely to a job as an enforcer for Tzai Industries.
History
Old Continuity
(See Old Continuity)
Despised throughout Cybertronian society, and for just reason. During the Quintesson occupation, Axer sold out his forces to the Quintessons, disappearing shortly afterwards. Axer fled to Iacon’s Border Regions following the Reclamation, no longer feeling welcome throughout “civilized” society.
Axer took it upon him self and developed the organization Peacekeepers Inc. Initially, Axer founded Peacekeepers on genuinely good intentions, designed to be a community centre. Unfortunately, because of the Border Regions’ seedy economic system, it didn’t take long for Peacekeepers to become immersed in it. Surprising no one, Axer was easily seduced. Before long, Peacekeepers began to operate as one of the Border Region’s primary underworld circuits, offering a range of illicit employment opportunities. Among these opportunities, gambling and pit fighting rackets were perhaps Axer’s most popular of ventures. For awhile, life as a racketeer was good for Axer, and it seemed it would only get better when Tzai Industries founder, Banzaitron, approached him with an appealing business proposition - one that he could not refuse.
After the Tzai and Peacekeepers merged to form Tzai Industries, Axer became Banzaitron’s steady right hand and enforcer. Naturally, he loved his position, becoming far more arrogant in the process. The merger only assured that Axer maintained a tight grip the Border Regions, allowing him and the Tzai to intimidate and literally wipe-out any competition. The syndicate known as the Metacarpus was one of those unfortunates, an organization that was once amidst a violent turf war with the Tzai. Following disastrous peace negotiations, Axer himself led the massacre that utterly annihilated the Metacarpus, including 4 out of 5 of its key directors and hundreds of their followers, one of which (Medius) Axer was close friends with.
There would however be a fallout. The Wreckers were led to his front door following the turf war, brought on by a secret investigation conducted by Whirl and First Aid. During this incident, Axer was betrayed by Banzaitron, who severed his link to the corporation, then deployed a small army of assassins to kill him. Banzaitron did not succeed, and Axer was captured by the Wreckers with the unexpected help of Doubledealer.
