'''Eukaris''' is a wild and untamed planet, home to a colony of long-lost Transformers with [[beast mode]]s. By modern times, Eukaris's population had splintered into four competing tribes, who divided themselves based on the nature of their alternate modes. They consisted of the [[Scale Walkers]], led by [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]], the [[Fur Walkers]], led by [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]], the [[Wave Walkers]], led by  [[Manta Ray (BW)|Manta Ray]], and the  [[Cloud Walkers]], led by [[Sonar (BW)|Sonar]]. Although isolated from other Transformer worlds, the tribes of Eukaris never forgot the humiliating discrimination that their ancestors on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] faced, and most maintain a healthy distrust of any vehicle mode Transformers.

The term for things related to Eukaris is '''Eukarian'''.

Seven million years ago, [[Onyx Prime]] landed on Eukaris during his journey aboard the [[Titan (IDW)|Titan]] [[Chela]]. {{storylink|Crisis Intervention}} {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} As they settled the world, Chela's personal [[hot spot]] gave birth to a new civilization of Transformers, all of whom possessed beast modes. Hoping to create a safe refuge for his kind, far away from [[Nova Prime]]'s toxic doctrine of [[functionism]] that was sweeping Cybertron, Onyx tasked Chela with protecting the planet from any intruding "standard-formers". Chela eventually went dormant underground, although legends of a day when Chela would reawake persisted. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}} 

Approximately eighteen thousand years ago, the starship ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'', captained by [[Domitius Major]], departed Eukaris with the [[Talisman (G1)|Talisman]] at the behest of Onyx Prime. The ''Axalon'' subsequently crashed on [[Earth|a distant, icy world]] and the crew was presumed dead. {{storylink|Strange Visitors}} {{storylink|Hasbro Heroes Sourcebook issue 1|Centurion profile}}

Eukaris remained isolated from the rest of the galaxy until following the "[[Dark Cybertron (IDW)|Dark Cybertron]]" incident, when the First Titan [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], newly returned to Cybertron, remotely located several colonies, including Eukaris. {{storylink|Windblade issue 2|Windblade vol. 1 #2}} While investigating blackouts with Metroplex's systems, [[Caminus|Camien]] [[Cityspeaker]] [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] linked with Metroplex's mind and saw [[Air Hammer]] and [[Injector]] swimming in an ocean on Eukaris. {{storylink|Windblade issue 4|Windblade vol. 1 #4}} Some months later, the battling [[combiner]]s [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] and [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] fell through Cybertron's [[space bridge]] to [[Caminus]], which Metroplex was causing to fluctuate by attempting to reach out to the other colony worlds at once. The combiners briefly landed on Eukaris during their conflict, but fell through the portal on to other colony worlds. Two residents of Eukaris, [[Airazor (BW)|Airazor]] and [[Tigatron]], witnessed the mayhem and later investigated the enormous footprints the warring giants left behind. Tigatron said that this incident should be reported to everyone on Eukaris, but Airazor protested to this. {{storylink|All That Remains}} The duo eventually sought out the advice of the "Fateweaver" [[Blackarachnia (BW)#IDW Generation 1 continuity|Blackarachnia]], who summoned all four of Eukaris's tribes to the planet's space bridge. They were joined by [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]], a Cybertronian who had sneaked through the space bridge to scout out the planet and persuade the natives to join the growing [[Council of Worlds]]. 

The next day, [[Starscream (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Starscream]] and [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] travelled to the planet. As a non-Cybertronian, the natives afforded Windblade the chance to argue her case for to join the Council. Unfortunately, the presence of vehicle mode Transformers also reawoke Chela, who burst from the ground and immediately tried to kill the intruders. Windblade tried to reason with Chela using her [[Cityspeaker]] skills, but diplomacy quickly broke down and Starscream was forced to kill the Titan. Windblade was saddened by the loss; but Blackarachnia realized that Chela's death fulfilled one of her prophecies, and was the first step toward changing Eukaris for the better. Blackarachnia decided to appoint [[Tigatron]] and [[Airazor (BW)|Airazor]]—who had both abandoned their respective tribes in order to be with one another—as delegates, hoping that their independence from Eukaris's competing tribes would make them impartial diplomats. {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}}

After delivering devastating ''kompromat'' on Starscream to Windblade, Rattrap decided to cut his losses and emigrate to Eukaris. After Starscream publicly confessed his crimes and Windblade had been elected to lead the Council of Worlds however, Rattrap was incarcerated on Cybertron - any asylum must have been short-lived. {{storylink|The Chosen One}}

[[Alpha Trion (G1)|Alpha Trion]] and [[Grimlock (G1)|Clobber]] attempted to locate an artifact related to the [[Titan Master]]s on Eukaris, but this drew the attention of a squad of Decepticons led by [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]]. {{storylink|Titans Return: The Power of the Titan Masters}}

==Notes==
*Eukaris's name is likely derived from the "eukaryotes": the group of organisms that includes all multicellular life-forms.
*It has yet to be specified how Air Hammer and Injector fit into the planet's four tribe system.
*A generic Eukarian seen in "[[Choose Me]]" is drawn to resemble a [[My Little Pony]].
