Biography
Tornitron was the succesor to Unicron, created by Unicron's creator Primacron. Unlike Unicron, Tornitron was an energy-based lifeform, controlled by Primacron's remote control. It consumed other energies, leaving stars dead and planets inert- its final purpose was to leave the entire universe a blank slate for Primacron to do with as he pleased. Tornedron started out as a tiny atom, which was later fed with flame and an Energon cube, resulting to make Tornedron growing in size and power. Primacron then ordered it to fly across the universe and devour anything on its path. It first ate a comet, turning it into a lump of coal. It then attacks Cybertron and drains the planet of its energy, as well as the Autobots residing and guarding the area. Primacron is impressed by his creation's success, claiming it has succeeded its predecessor Unicron. It then headed towards the moon, where the Autobot forces led by Rodimus Prime and the Decepticon forces led by Galvatron are fighting, but were left confused after the animal-themed Transformers of both sides, known as "Primitives", left the scenery due hearing a call from a mysterious voice. Tornedron drained the energy of both Autobots and Decepticons while the Primitives managed to escape.
The Primitives head over to a empty planet where they meet a disembodied energy being known as the Oracle, who was Primacron's former assistant. The Oracle told the Primitives about Primacron and the origins of Unicron, and the Primitives' natural instincts can be used to stop Tornedron. As such, the Primitives agreed to destroy Tornedron in order to save the universe.
Unfortunately for Primacron, while Tornitron succeeded in draining most of the universe's energy, it also became just as rebellious as his predecessor. Only Grimlock defeated it before the creature could consume its creator- he threw it into reverse, returning all the energy it stole to its original locations and dispersing the entity.
