Canon Point: Volume 3, issue 10, after Megatron shows back up and ruins Starscream's life.
Personality: Starscream is an extremely arrogant, jealous, egotistical and overly ambitious person. He does not get along well with others and holds himself above everyone else.
The problem is, Starscream is rather good at what he does – it's actually one of the few reasons he manages to be able to mouth off to Megatron and not have his head shot off. He's very intelligent and extremely skilled in flight, science, and combat.
At the start of the war he turned rather brutal for awhile, killing and being attributed to a lot of atrocities those who knew him before the war would have never thought him capable of. After millions of years into the war, he mellowed out a bit from his erratic and reckless and cruel behavior. He does not really kill pointlessly and without reason. He wouldn't murder all life on Earth or destroy the planet because he wouldn't see the point in doing so.
However, he is also highly arrogant about his own abilities and overestimates himself most of the time causing him to sometimes fail. His failures do little to deter him, as surely doing it a second time will result in success.
Because of his nature, he tends to drift into having a one track mind (such as assassinating Megatron and taking over the Decepticons which has actual caused him to become rather infamous in a way.) He's not only stubborn but extremely persistent.
Which is ironic in a way since he has little to no patience for anything else. He does not like waiting for anything. If he wants something, he wants it now, not tomorrow, not the next day, now. But at the same time he has learned to wait for opportunities to reveal themselves. Even though he backtalks a lot, makes endless taunts, he will not openly and directly challenge anyone he knows is more powerful than him.
Some use this to refer to him as a coward.
He prefers to see himself as an opportunist instead.
As highly as Starscream thinks of himself, he actually is not completely vain. He doesn't like pain, or getting damaged in battle, but in war it happens. Besides, he also believes he looks better than everyone else no matter what anyway. He is shallow about other people's looks, however. And he will tell someone if he thinks they are ugly.
One trait that most of the Decepticon army would probably point out that he has is: Starscream loves to hear himself talk. Sometimes he will not shut up. He'll go on about how he should be leader or how Megatron comes up with stupid plans or just how Megatron himself is stupid. Above all else, Starscream is a chronic complainer.
And he goes out of his way to be annoying. If Starscream discovers something that bothers another person, he will pick at it and push every button he can until the other person snaps. He's highly sarcastic and makes comments about everything.
He might even be a little over dramatic about life as well.
Due to his ambitious personality and quest for leadership, he has been often labeled as traitor. He would never consider himself anything else other than a Decepticon, but he is hardly loyal to Megatron at all. Though even with all his claims, he's less concerned with the group than the goal at hand. He will team up with an enemy for a common need. The end result overrides factions. If someone is of use to him, he doesn't care who they are, what species, or anything like that.
Even with all his negative traits, Starscream still managed to become close to Jetfire who was the exact opposite. Calm, understanding, patient – everything Starscream wasn't. Yet their personalities complimented each other in a way and they just learned to deal with each other's differences. Jetfire is one of the few who has the ability to still influence him (he's also one of the few who even knows how to handle his personality in the first place). Jetfire joining the Autobots brought about a great deal of hatred from Starscream though that was eventually redirected back towards Megatron. In the end their past friendship proved to be stronger than that which originally divided them. Starscream still does have some semblance of a conscience, but it is only through his former friend that he really ever shows it.
