Earnon is an Zapbots High Council from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Era: 2022 - "It's fun to be a diplomat... really."

Earnon is the President of Gearatron's High Council. He functions as an ambassador to numerous other planets established in the newly formed Federation. Polite but stern Earnon can be picky about having his way and carrying out the orders from the council. However, he isn't without feeling and compassion and will sometimes break the rules to keep the 'peace'.

Fiction

Original Series

Unicron Returns

Earnon was in charge of Gearatron during Anthony's absence. When Anthony returned as Shortstop he promised he wouldn't let Earnon down again.

Robot Trek IV

Earnon was in charge of reassignment of troops to Duplaflex's upgrade, and Fortress Misslemax's decommission. This frustrated Shortstop who implored him to use Fortress Misslemax to head back to New Gearatron. Earnon refused.

Robot Trek V

Earnon was stuck with the crew on Gearatron when the Ancient Gearatron Device attacked. He sent out a warning message to help detour individuals from approaching the planet. Earnon was also judge over Shortstop and his crew's trial when the crisis was averted.

Behind the Scenes

I believe I subconsciously has Zeemon in the back of my head when I wrote these stories way back in the day (although thought the character was hilarious on GoBots). Now over thirty years later I can give tribute to the representative with my own version.
