Sideways

1="Everything you think you know about me was a lie told by me to confuse someone, or conjecture from someone who'd be in no position to know. So yeah, maybe I'm a fragment of Unicron, because maybe Planet X used to BE Unicron. And maybe I'm his avatar made manifest and untethered once he collapsed into a giant singularity. And maybe I'm from the Cybertronian Empire. And maybe I'm just an ordinary Autobot who went crazy from Powerlinxing to the wrong Mini-Cons. Maybe I'm all of those things, or none. And you know what the best part is? You'll. Never. Know."

- motto from Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001) & Transformers: Armada

Bio
If you encounter a 'bot going by the name Sideways, do not trust him! Throughout the Transformers multiverse, the name is associated with cheats and liars. Most oftentimes, a Sideways's allegiances are to be questioned. Many of them claim to be helpful allies, but more often than not, they work for a greater evil. Some would assume Sideways to be cowardly, but their true strength oftentimes lies in their speed and their cunning. A quick getaway today can assure that greater machinations come to fruition tomorrow. Some Sideways are known to possess dimension-hopping capabilities, and tracking which Sideways is responsible for what in whatever universe can be a tad confusing. Some of them have claimed to travel to other universes to slaughter and impersonate their native counterpart, or that Sideways are cloned from one another to fulfill their roles in multiple parallel events. Sideways are true sowers of confusion, and even if one were able to see past all the lies, one would still be hard-pressed to make sense of the chaos that they leave in their wake.

The following Sideways have been documented throughout the multiverse. From one perspective, they might all be considered the same Sideways, occasionally interacting with himself via inter-dimensional shenanigans. Facts do not always line up entirely with this assertion, possibly, maybe, implying that at least some Sideways are not part of the greater agenda taking place. For the explicit sake of accessibility and to ease the conveyance of information, several Sidewayses have been documented on this wiki as though they are separate entities, even though they are frequently characterized as recurring versions of the same archetype.
