For more RID15 stuff I want to give Steeljaw a much more cult leader vibe and give him an ability. Since the whole thing of none of the actual major pack villains are Decepticons, it just switches to wanting to do it for wronged ferrocons (no matter how much they really were very dangerous people who are willing to hurt innocents) under his claws to rule an organic world just like their distant brethren.
But yeah he’s much more culty in the things he does. Especially because his ability allows him to grow more powerful the more others are loyal to him. Aka he has the outlier ability of Pack Bond that I’m calling it that allows the social bonds he makes to grant him increased sense, strength and all kinds of things. So while at first it doesn’t seem like he’s physically a major threat, definitely more social threat with his manipulative ways, the more he gains members the more he gets stronger. No one notices it until he has what becomes the core members and every additional bot after.
When having a brawl when a power struggle happens cause someone doesn’t want him as leader, it’s clear his strength is unnatural as hell, and that makes others more loyal, or well fearful, cause he’s very much someone craving that power
So basically I just want to make him truly the biggest villain in the show, and the biggest threat, cause I deleted Megatronus and the corrupt council cause it didn’t work for my take on RID15
Also with Steeljaw’s siblings Sharpclaw and Phantomjaw (probably gonna change it to Phantommaw) were on the ship as well and do appear to assist but get pushed to the side as it’s clear that Steel is only looking for himself once he reaches a point where he’s the main guy
