Explanation of the conversion: This write-up is mostly based on the custom tech spec I wrote for King Atlas. I based his size on his appearance in the Transformers: Universe comic where he stood as tall as Omega Prime.

History: King Atlas was among the Cybertonians kidnapped by Unicron. He escaped with a large number of his fellow prisoners thanks to Optimus Primal and returned to Cybertron (Transformers: Universe #2).

King Atlas is one of the leaders of the Autobot cause against Unicron and his Decepticon forces. Optimus Primal placed him in charge of running a refugee network within the monster planet because of his ability to cloak himself and others from enemy radar. An unyielding foe of evil wherever it is encountered, King Atlas is a larger than life-heroic type, who doesn't enjoy having to hide himself, but he knows what he does is more important than any frontal attack. A tactical genius, he is wholly dedicated to protecting innocents and will shed his last drop of fuel for the Autobot cause without hesitation. Well known for being compassionate, caring and generous. Never ending opposition of Unicron is now the focus of his existence. Now works with Depth Charge assisting him, and is greatly impressed by the dedication and independence of his second in command.

Trivia: The toy of King Atlas is similar to the toys of Skyquake and Machine Wars Starscream.

King Atlas Powers: King Atlas is a massive heroic figure. He is incredibly swift, strong and tough. He is capable of turning into a stealth jet capable of cruising at mach 3 with ease. Packs a devastating payload of missiles, particle beams and long range lasers. Advanced stealth capabilities not only allow him to disappear from enemy radars, but even allow him to project false images to fool his enemies. Can also bend light around himself and a limited area around him for short periods of time, rendering the area invisible to the naked eye. Amazing skill and telescopic vision enhancements grant him accuracy that rivals that of the legendary Optimus Prime.

King Atlas' keen mind is the perfect match for his swift form. He has extensive combat knowledge specializing in both heavy weapons and subduing opponents with hand-to-hand techniques.

Weaknesses: King Atlas could be accused of being too compassionate and concerned about the safety of others. When he sets a goal for himself, he is unwavering in his attempts to achieve it, perhaps to the point of obsession, even when most other sane mechanoids would give up. His amazing luck and tactical planning have allowed him to achieve victory against seemingly impossible odds time and time again, but other Autobot leaders worry it's only a matter of time before his luck runs out.
