Ultra Trion
From Transformers Wiki
| This subject of this article goes by multiple names that apply to other articles as well. See Ultra (disambiguation), Trion (disambiguation). |
- Ultra Trion is an Autobot from the Shell Game portion of the Robots in Disguise continuity family (via the 2003 Universe series).
Ultra Trion is among the scattered few Autobots left on a Cybertron that has been utterly ravaged by Megazarak and his hordes. He watches over the hall of the Oracle, welcoming those seeking enlightenment.
Needless to say, he's a little lonely right about now.
He is a little better-armed than most mystic-type ancient Autobots, but fighting is far from his forte.
Fiction
Shell Game
In Viron 704.31 Epsilon after the death of Alpha Trion, his disciple Ultra Magnus merged his body and mind with his fading form to become the fusion entity, Ultra Trion. Ask Vector Prime, 30 July 2015 He passed on the Matrix of Leadership to Hot Spot, permanently changing him into the new Autobot leader Defensor. Ask Vector Prime, 7 August 2015
Megazarak sought out the Oracle guarded by Ultra Trion in order to locate Base Sigma, the location of the last pocket of Autobot resistance on his Cybertron, which was presumably where the Matrix was also kept hidden. Only Ultra Trion stood in his way, but Megazarak swatted him to the floor easily.
Ultra Trion attempted to destroy Megazarak with a missile hidden in his right shoulder armor, knowing he would not survive his encounter with Megazarak. But the Decepticon warlord simply stuffed the missile back into Trion, detonating it without taking a hint of damage. Ultra Trion was not so lucky. Not content with merely grievously wounding the ancient Autobot, Megazarak then turned his main cannon on Trion and finished the job.
But Trion had gotten one over on Megazarak after all; the Oracle was no longer in its chamber. It cost him his life, but Ultra Trion had bought the remaining Autobot resistance a little more time. Shell Game
Notes
- According to Dan Khanna in a message board response, Ultra Trion was meant to be an alternate universe counterpart to Generation 1 Ultra Magnus, who acted as Alpha Trion's successor until his demise. Ask Vector Prime would canonize this idea over a decade later, albeit, using the Robots in Disguise versions of Ultra Magnus and Alpha Trion instead.
