Razorbeast

Razorbeast's History

Razorbeast was contained in one of the many stasis pods on the Axalon that were ejected when the ship was caught in a battle with the Darksyde and left in orbit above the planet they crashed on. The pod was soon brought down to the surface due to sabotage carried out by Blackarachnia. However, due to her not being able to upload the entirety of Tarantulas' code to said pods, Razorbeast kept his Maximal programming. When his pod fell into a lake it was unable to release its opening hatch until Skold happened to find and carry it out of the water. Thankful to his rescuer and not completely aware of the situation, Razorbeast struck up a friendship with the Predacon. Unbeknownst to either of them, however, they were being watched and tested by the Vok, who provoked a pack of savage ironwolves into attacking the pair. Razorbeast quickly charged and attacked the group while Skold attempted to persuade him to save himself, but he refused to leave his new friend. Razorbeast was quickly overwhelmed by the pack and received several serious injuries. Skold tore the pack apart to save him but found his body mangled by the creatures. As Razorbeast slipped into stasis lock Skold was forced to take him back to the Maximals and the Axalon, knowing the Predacons wouldn't save him. After some tense negotiations, Optimus Primal took his body back into the ship, promising they would do what they could to help him.

Along with the other Maximals, Razorbeast joined Optimus Primal when he launched a pre-emptive strike on the Predacon base in order to retrieve the Golden Disk, despite his private doubts about having to fight his friend Skold. In the ensuing battle, Razorbeast battled Terrorsaur, but when he saw Skold grappling with his leader Optimus he instinctively abandoned the fight to rush over and break up their fight. As he got between the pair and insisted that she didn't have to be their enemy, Terrorsaur swooped down on the Maximal and hauled him away into the sky. Gloating that Razorbeast should've killed him when he got the chance, Terrorsaur dropped the Maximal warrior directly into a mountain of raw energon crystals that formed the core of the planet's many floating islands and triggered a cataclysmic explosion. Skold quickly avenged her fallen friend, however; when Terrorsaur gloated that he'd killed the "stupid Maximal", the little Predacon snapped and ripped Terrorsaur's spark from his body in a moment of anger.
