- Duststorm is aDecepticonfrom theUniverseportion of theAligned continuity family.
The two words that stand out in descriptions ofDuststormare "tainted" and "corrupted" inside and out. She is a mechanoid afterMegatron's own spark: ruthless and efficient and geared towards doing maximum combat damage either up close or from a distance. Her weaponry keeps any "predators" at bay, and though her defensive armor and durability are low, she specializes in stunning opponents and making speedy getaways. Many victims never see more than the sickly glint of her distinctive augmented optic prosthesis before she pops their hoods from a distance.[1]
