[Priority Broadcast][Video - backdated to Wednesday]
[The feed opens to a view of Megatronus Prime, a bloodied sword in hand. He gives it a hard flick to clear the worst of the gore from his blade, and a chunk of what used to be one of the monstrous centipedes flies off and knocks a nearby Acolyte in the head. It stumbles out of frame. Megatronus doesn't pay it any mind and addresses his audience:]
I imagine few of you will argue with me if I say that our guests have overstayed their welcome. Hospitality has its limits, after all.
[Besides which, he certainly never invited them to visit in the first place. Rude, centipedes. Very rude.]
When the creatures of the Badlands haven't the sense to retreat of their own volition, I find that a concentrated application of brute force is often enough to convince them of their error. My kin and I have determined that these monsters are likely led by a demon hiding at the core of an offshoot of the Badlands – if you've wandered outside of the Haven, you've likely noticed the approaching darkness. That is where we will be applying our force.
- and when I say 'we,' I don't simply mean my brothers and I.
Refugees, I call on you for volunteers who can fight; failing that, I'll accept volunteers who think they can fight. Anyone with a skill that would serve them well in combat, or those capable of supporting combatants. What you lack in size or experience can be compensated for through other means. I am willing to offer what gifts I can to those willing to fight in order to improve the likelihood of your... success.
[Survival. The word he means is 'survival.' Dragging Refugees to the heart of enemy territory often ends poorly for the weaker members of the group, but it's a necessary sacrifice.]
Unless, of course, you'd all rather be subject to regular attacks within the Haven. For those of you that care enough about your friends and your place here to act, I will be waiting for you in my arena. The Acolytes will direct you if you cannot find your way.
If you bear my Glyph, I expect to see you there.
[OOC note: there's a companion log to this post up over here for those who want to sign up their characters and collect a temporary boon ICly!]

Usually, I would tell someone with the word "Megatron" in their name to go scrap themselves, but, this seems to be more interesting. Count me in for either combat or support. Whatever.
Besides, I'm curious of where exactly those nasty bugs are coming from.

Try not to judge me by the actions of those ancestors who've taken my name. Thus far, I've seen optic to optic with very few of them.
[Not that he'd likely act any different than the average Megatron does if he were placed in their circumstances, but he still finds the Autobot-Decepticon conflict a waste of time.]
Nowhere pleasant. Once we have put their leader to rest, however, you'll have the opportunity to explore the area if you so desire.
Re: [Video]
[Still not going to trust him. Not until she see's an actual reason to.]
Good. How long will you give me to explore? Or will I be on my own getting home.

[Theoretically, it's quite the compliment that so many have choosen to take his name. In practice, it's an irritation: mechs arriving in the Haven often have strange expectations of him.]
My purpose there is to remove the source of the infestation. Once we have accomplished that goal, I will return to the Haven.
If you wish to stay longer you'll be on your own.
Re: [Video]
[Her expectations are simple really. Always expect there to be a hidden motive to everything. ]
Fine. Now what about these "gifts" you were mentioning.
[Video]
The nature of my gift depends on what you are most in need of. If your armor is thin, I can harden it; if you're weak, I can make you stronger; if you have few weapons, I can make you powerful.

Re: [Video]
Alright, you've convinced me. I'm coming along tall dark and brutal.

Excellent. I'll be waiting.
