'''Cy-Kill''' is a cyborg alien from the planet [[Gobotron]]. Once, long ago, he was one of the greatest of the heroic [[Guardian (GoBots)|Guardians]]. Along with his partner [[Leader-1 (GoBots)|Leader-1]], Cy-Kill was even named a High Protector of their world. Though originally content to share power with his friend, when Leader-1's fame began to eclipse his own he chaffed at the idea of being "lesser" to anyone. His boundless pride, ego and ambition to power lead him to rebel and take command of the scattered Renegade forces. If he could not rule Gobotron by popular acclaim he would take it by force! Cy-Kill seems to be quite at home in the role of brutal, ambitious warlord and would be world-conqueror. He was having a good time, fighting those do-gooder Guardians, when suddenly his entire dimension was placed in dire peril. Well, crap.

He's very [[Megatron (BW)|theatrical]].

===''Timelines''===
The [[Zebediah Braxis|Doctor]]'s report was clear. Due to cosmological interference from [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon|another universe]], a great [[Cataclysm (GoBots)|Cataclysm]] was destroying [[Gargent 984.08 Alpha|their own]]. This other universe was populated by [[Transformer|strange, robot creatures]], struggling through a similar galaxy-spanning civil war.  

There was no saving their own universe, and no rational reason to destroy the universe that was removing theirs. Cy-Kill and his rival, [[Leader-1 (GoBots)|Leader-1]] assembled their respective factions, explained their dire situation, and put together a team. This team would reconfigure their bodies to disguise themselves amongst these otherdimensional robots, use the [[Dimensional Interfacer]] to travel to their universe, and seek out help. {{storylink|Withered Hope}}

===Ask Vector Prime===
In [[Gargent 087.0 Kappa]], Cy-Kill received word that [[Spy Changer|six strangers]] were fighting the Guardians. Assuming any enemy of the Guardians to be an ally of his, Cy-Kill dispatched his elite lieutenants to rescue the strangers and bring them back to his flagship, the ''[[Rogue Star]]''. He tried to court the Spy Changers to his cause, but [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] saw through Cy-Kill's deception. Working in secret with the Guardians, the Spy Changers eventually destroyed the Renegades' bases on the planet [[Moebius]] which were threatening [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. Cy-Kill was furious, but the combined might of the Guardians and the Autobots drove the Renegades off. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime}}

====Renegade Rhetoric====

An increasingly desperate [[Axiom Nexus News]] hired a Cy-Kill to run [[Vector Prime (Cybertron)|Vector Prime's]] old column. He claimed to be "leader of the Renegades in exile", hoping to one day return home. 

Among other answers, Cy-Kill said:

* Transformers make a funny noise when transforming because they suck, not like superior designed Renegades! 

* If he conquered [[Earth]], the most loyal and impressive humans would have their brains plonked in GoBot bodies.

==Notes==
[[Image:Cykillgobots.jpg|right|150px|thumb|"Well, there's nothing you can do about me taking all the free cookies!"]]
* In case you haven't figured it out already, Cy-Kill is totally the guy from ''Challenge of the GoBots''. For real!

* Cy-Kill is constantly "[[easter egg]]ed" in [[Cy-Kill (disambiguation)|various Transformers stories]]. But, like, GoBots were totally ''lame'', so wouldn't it be ''hilarious'' if he was repeatedly killed over and over again because he was ''lame''? Yeah! 

* A character identical to Cy-Kill was seen in the processing center of [[Axiom Nexus]] in "[[Transcendent: Part 1]]", not far from the interdimensional GoBot exploration team. It seems unlikely this could have been the ''actual, in-story'' Cy-Kill, as this individual had not adopted a new disguise which was essential for the GoBot explorers. Complicating matters is the actual Cy-Kill (or ''a'' actual Cy-Kill) wandering around Axiom Nexus undisguised for the "Ask Vector Prime" column. 

* According to the ''Challenge of the Gobots'' episode, "Et tu, Cy-Kill?", Cy-Kill's military title before betraying [[Leader-1 (GoBots)|Leader-1]] and leading the Renegade faction was [[Lord High Protector|High Protector]], much like [[Megatron (Movie)|somebody else we know]].

* The main pic of this article was used on [[October 13]], [[2015]] as the image for [[Ask Vector Prime#Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric]].  You'll also notice that the figure of Cy-Kill (but not the background) are taken from a screencap from the ''Challenge of the Go-Bots'' cartoon.  A cartoon still owned by Hanna-Barbera/Time-Warner.  Before the end of the day, the Renegade Rhetoric image was changed to an original, less lawsuity drawing of Cy-Kill.
