Editing Transwarp Key

The '''Transwarp Key''' is a powerful device. For many entities, planetary travel can be considered a demanding ordeal. Whether it be distance traveled, time required to travel, or the energy required to make the entire distance, it may not be ideal, and for some, even impossible. With the Transwarp Key, however, that distance shrinks significantly down, allowing for entities to travel between [[Time|time]] and [[Space (the place)|space]], and what seems to be a challenge, even an impossibility in terms of travelling distance for even [[Unicron|gods]] has become nothing more than a short distance to travel.

{{Spoiler|Rise of the Beasts|July 9}}
On the [[Jungle Planet (colony)|homeworld]] of the [[Maximal|Maximals]], the Transwarp Key was kept under the protection of the Maximal leader, [[Apelinq (ROTB)|Apelinq]]. Due to the Key's capability of warping through space-time, it would draw the attention of Unicron, the monster planet sending his [[Terrorcon (ROTB)|Terrorcons]] to obtain the key to allow him a means to traverse to any worlds rich with [[Energon]] at any time.

Realizing the imminent danger as the leader of the Terrorcons, [[Scourge (ROTB)|Scourge]], was sent to retrieve it, Apelinq would entrust the device to [[Optimus Primal (ROTB)|Optimus Primal]], and was taken by the newly assigned Maximal leader as he escaped [[Airazor (ROTB)|with]] [[Cheetor (ROTB)|several]] [[Rhinox (ROTB)|other]] Maximals to a then prehistoric [[Earth]] to hide away from Unicron and the Terrorcons.

Upon arrival to the planet, Optimus Primal decided to have the Transwarp Key split into two halves, with Primal hiding his half within a temple in [[Peru]], while Airazor kept her half sealed away in a falcon statue. Some time between the initial splitting of the Transwarp Key and [[1994]], Primal moved his half of the Transwarp Key, giving it to a small village of people aware of the Maximals' existence for safe keeping. Airazor's half was moved away as well, taken to a museum on Ellis Island in New York.

The Transwarp Keys during this time remained dormant, until museum intern [[Elena Wallace]] would accidentally break the falcon statue and activated a signal beacon for the half of key, attracting the [[Autobot|Autobots]] as well as the Terrorcons, the former seeing the Key as a means to return to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and the latter seeing it as a means to summon Unicron to Earth. Both factions came to blows, but Scourge ended up escaping with the half of the Key.

Scourge would present the half of the Key to Unicron, believing that it was the whole piece, but Unicron tortured the Terrorcon leader, telling him that it was only half, and then demanding him to retrieve the other half.

When the Autobots arrived to [[Cusco]], they made a plan to retrieve the other half of the Key, while their human ally, [[Noah Diaz]], made plans to destroy it. Upon meeting with the Maximals and taking the Autobots to their village, one of the villagers presented the other half of the Transwarp Key to  [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]. This half of the Key would be stolen by Airazor, the Maximal corrupted by Scourge. Noah would try to destroy the Key, but Optimus Prime begged for him to not destroy it. Upon Noah's refusal, the remaining half was stolen by Airazor once more, and handed to Scourge.

With both halves reunited, Scourge connected the Transwarp Key to a newly formed Transwarp Drive, where it then opened a vortex that allowed for Unicron to come to Earth. The Transwarp Key, however, would be destroyed in the final battle by Optimus Prime in order to stop Unicron's arrival.

:A painted Transwarp Key would be included with the ''Studio Series'' Optimus Primal as one of his accessories. Much like the Transwarp Key in the movie, the accessory is capable of splitting in half to replicate its state from the early portions of ''Rise of the Beasts''.
