Brawl is the name of several fictional characters in the Transformers series.

Generation 1

Animated series

Here Brawl was introduced as a "renegade Decepticon" whose personality component was removed from his original body on Megatron's orders only to later be placed in an old Earth army vehicle by Starscream. Subsequently forced to serve the Decepticon flyer, Brawl and his teammates battled Megatron and the Autobots alike before being reprogrammed to obey the Decepticon leader. He and his teammates would then focus solely on battle with the Autobots, often battling against the Protectobots or Aerialbots. At one point Brawl and most of his teammates were taken apart and sold by Swindle, and Brawl's brain module ended up in a science fair robot until it was eventually recovered.

Books

The book Transformers - Meet The Decepticons by Jennifer Frantz had a slightly different ending than the movie. This book had all six Decepticons leaving Earth together after being defeated by the Autobots, instead of most of their numbers dying. In this book they used the name Brawl for the character.

Games

Brawl appears in the video game tie-in. He appears as a boss faced by Ironhide in the Autobot campaign, as the one that killed Jazz as opposed to Megatron in the movie (in the Decepticon campaign, it was Barricade that killed Jazz). In the Decepticon campaign he appears as an ally who has to be escorted out of human military. His deluxe toy is among the 'bonus features' pictures in the game. In the Nintendo DS and PSP adaptation of the game Brawl is a playable character. In the Decepticon campaign he appears in a cutscene with Megatron in the throne room (which was once the Lincoln Memorial) with also Starscream while being requested by saying "Finish this planet, we are done here" while Barricade walks. In Transformers: Decepticons, Brawl has a childlike personality.[1]

Hiding in the deep desert, he soaks up energy from the blazing sun, and emerges only to satisfy his hunger for destruction by attacking and annihilating human convoys and armored columns. He is a ghost in the desert, attacking randomly and without reason, and disappearing before human air power can arrive to track him. To those living in the region, he is a myth, but to those few who survive his attacks he is a monster.".
