	~~[[Image:Animated allspark.jpg\|right\|325px\|thumb\|Obligatory mysterious life-giving MacGuffin.]]~~
	A device of unknown origin and unimaginable power, the '''AllSpark''' can create life itself and was the source of the [[Transformer]] race. For millions of years, [[Autobot\|Autobots]] and [[Decepticon\|Decepticons]] waged the [[Great War (Animated)\|Great War]] over controlling it, with the Autobots only managing to defeat the Decepticons after they sent the AllSpark through a [[space bridge]] portal, keeping it safely out of evil hands and effectively removing the wild card from remaining battles. If wielded by Decepticons, it would be a weapon of destruction like no other. In other words, same thing as the movie.

	~~It seems to have a will of its own, seeking out qualified bearers and uniting even [[Sari Sumdac\|unlikely allies]] into a team.~~

	~~It can also unfold ''really'' purdy.~~

	~~==Fiction==~~
	~~===''Animated'' cartoon===~~
	~~[[Image:AllsparkTFANI.jpg\|left\|200px\|thumb\|Before time began there was…the irregular decahedron.]]~~

	~~The [[Great War (Animated)\|Great War]] was won when the [[Autobot]]s transported the AllSpark through a [[space bridge]] to a remote corner of the galaxy where it would presumably never be found.~~

	Millions of years later, [[Optimus Prime (Animated)\|Optimus Prime]] and his crew of Autobots were repairing a space bridge when it activated on them. Once Prime shut down the bridge, they stumbled across the AllSpark, hidden away inside a rock, having apparently emerged while the bridge was active. [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Ratchet]] told them of its history and significance in the Great War, believing that the AllSpark had now found them, rather than the other way around. Almost immediately, the Decepticon leader [[Megatron (Animated)\|Megatron]] and his crew showed up in [[Nemesis (Animated)\|their warship]], tracking the AllSpark's energy readings. Megatron attacked the Autobots' fleeing [[Omega Supreme (Animated)\|ship]] to claim the AllSpark himself, but his attempt was sabotaged by a bomb placed on him by his lieutenant, [[Starscream (Animated)\|Starscream]]. The explosion sent the Autobots' ship careening out of control until the AllSpark activated the space bridge, which itself exploded after the ship went through.

	The ship emerged in low orbit over Earth and soon crash-landed in [[Lake Erie]], not far from [[Detroit]]. Fifty years later, the Autobots came out of emergency stasis and ventured into the city to save people from a rampaging monster. [[Bumblebee (Animated)\|Bumblebee]] quickly befriended a young girl named [[Sari Sumdac]], who convinced him to take her aboard the Autobots' ship when his teammate [[Prowl (Animated)\|Prowl]] was badly injured. While aboard, Sari came in contact with the AllSpark, which decided for some reason to open up to her—in more ways than one. It reconfigured her [[AllSpark Key\|security keycard]] into an exceedingly strong and powerful Cybertronian tool. With this new Key, Sari could revive Autobots,upgrade and modify electrical devices and appliances in seconds, screw up robots, detect AllSpark fragments, and much more.

	For a time, the Autobots were celebrated as Detroit's newest superheroes, but then Starscream tracked them down. He took hostages and demanded the AllSpark in exchange for their return. With Sari's help, the hostages were freed, but Starscream still managed to get hold of the AllSpark, and he quickly started obliterating sections of Detroit with it. Prime attempted to wrestle the AllSpark away from him, but again it opened, this time unleashing a powerful surge of energy that blasted away Starscream to parts unknown. Prime was left dangling from a tremendous height and quickly fell. [[The many deaths of Optimus Prime\|He did not survive the impact]], but in desperation, Sari used the reconfigured AllSpark Key on him. The AllSpark intervened directly this time, and Prime's [[spark]] was restored online. {{storylink\|Transform and Roll Out}}

	~~After this, the AllSpark remained on board the Autobots' at the bottom of Lake Erie for some time. {{storylink\|Lost and Found (episode)\|Lost and Found}}~~

	~~[[Image:Megatron Rising 2 All Spark Megs boom.jpg\|right\|200px\|thumb\|Ouch.]]~~
	The day of reckoning the Autobots had long feared came to pass when Megatron was restored and went to claim the AllSpark once again. Inserting the AllSpark into his chest, he planned to use it as a weapon to destroy Earth and conquer Cybertron. However, Optimus Prime used the AllSpark Key to crack the AllSpark. In the resulting energy surge, the AllSpark was destroyed and its energy dispersed. With its destruction, the Key became the most powerful Cybertronian artifact on the planet Earth, if not in [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)\|the universe]]. {{storylink\|Megatron Rising - Part 2}}


	~~====AllSpark Fragments====~~
	Crystalline shards of the AllSpark landed all throughout the greater Detroit area and were able to endow life into any machine with sufficient cybernetic technology. The first one discovered was in one of Isaac Sumdac's robots while he was working on Megatron's space bridge. It went haywire, and the Decepticons thought it was Sumdac, so Megatron blasted it and found the fragment in what was left of its arm. Megatron theorized that the shards could have spread across the entire world. A [[Sumdac Systems]] assembly line had empowered some Security Drones, which showed hostility to everything around them until they were either destroyed or had the AllSpark shards removed from them. Optimus's Autobots and the Elite Guard put a stop to this and extracted the AllSpark fragment from the controls. {{storylink\|The Elite Guard}}

	AllSpark shards are sufficiently strong and powerful enough to sustain Transformer life even after their sparks have been extinguished, as Starscream discovered. He later found an AllSpark shard in a truck and planted it on a train to lure out Megatron. {{storylink\|Mission Accomplished}}

	~~The fifth AllSpark fragment gave life to [[Wreck-Gar (Animated)\|Wreck-Gar]]. {{storylink\|Garbage In, Garbage Out}}~~

	The sixth AllSpark fragment was found in [[Master Disaster]]'s remote. This allowed him to control [[Blurr (Animated)\|machines]] and fix the results of his underground street races. {{storylink\|Velocity}}

	The seventh and eighth AllSpark fragments turned two construction vehicles into the [[Constructicon (Animated)\|Constructicons]] [[Scrapper (Animated)\|Scrapper]] and [[Mixmaster (Animated)\|Mixmaster]]. {{storylink\|Rise of the Constructicons}}

	The ninth AllSpark fragment was in [[Slo-Mo]]'s timepiece. This was able to slow down time around whatever electronic device on which it was used. It also was used to restore [[Nanosec]] to his rightful age. {{storylink\|SUV: Society of Ultimate Villainy}}

	~~Many of the fragments that the Autobots had were used to help [[Omega Supreme (Animated)\|Omega Supreme]] reboot and kick some Decepticon tail. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}~~

	~~One fragment, however, managed to get back into their custody following this, and was a contributing factor in the creation of [[Dirt Boss (Animated)\|Dirt Boss]].{{storylink\|Three's a Crowd}}~~

	Prowl later used his [[Processor-over-matter]] technique to materialize an AllSpark piece. Megatron also made use of AllSpark fragments salvaged from Omega Supreme in order to power his [[Lugnut Supreme\|three darker versions of Omega.]] {{storylink\|Endgame, Part I}}

	~~====Reformation====~~

	[[~~Image:TFA Prime with Matrix.jpg\|160px\|thumb\|right\|It may not light our darkest hour, but it sure does look cool.]]~~
	~~When the~~ [[Starscream Supreme\|former]] Lugnut Supremes threatened to explode and wipe out all of Detroit (as well as a sizeable amount of the surrounding area), Optimus came to the conclusion that the only thing that could save the city and its inhabitants was the power of the AllSpark~~, except that it was dispersed throughout all of Detroit. However Prowl and [[Jazz (~~Animated)\|Jazz]] were able to use their Processor-over-matter technique to bring together as many of the scattered fragments as possible, including the one lodged in Starscream's forehead. Unfortunately, not enough fragments were available so Prowl had to sacrifice his own Spark to complete the AllSpark and create a shield to contain the Starscream Supreme's explosion. The completed Allspark was put in [[Matrix of Leadership\|an interesting-looking container]] and [[The Transformers: The Movie\|hung on a chain around Prime's neck]] when the Autobots went back to Cybertron. {{storylink\|Endgame, Part II}}

	~~==Notes==~~
	* The AllSpark's powers, enigmatic origin, and storyline role are very similar to the [[AllSpark (Movie)\|synonymous device]] from the [[Transformers (2007)\|live-action movie]]. The look of the outer container, however, is more of an homage to the [[Matrix of Leadership]] (i.e. an orange-ish container with bracketed handles and a window in front that opens outward to reveal a glowing, blue, spherical crystal suffused with blue energy). However, the AllSpark here is angular and cubic rather than curved and spheroid like the Matrix, basically hybridizing the looks of the movie and Generation 1 devices. Unlike its Movie counterpart, it does not kill a Transformer that merges the power source, the inner crystal, with his/her Spark, but grants him/her great power as long as the crystal remains intact, a very similar effect to that of the [[Heart of Cybertron]].

	* At [[BotCon 2008]], ''Animated'' creative team [[Marty Isenberg]], [[Matt Youngberg]], and [[Derrick Wyatt]] stated that they had no intention of providing an in-story explanation of the AllSpark, because to do so would run the risk of making the artifact less interesting, or being so bizarre that it shattered the audience's willing suspension of disbelief, or being so wildly convoluted that explaining it all would get in the way of telling the actual story, or all of the above. They specifically cited the [[Star Wars]] prequel trilogy's "[[wikipedia:midichlorian\|midichlorian"]] explanation of the [[Force]] as something that convinced them it was better to let the AllSpark remain a mystery.

For millions of years, [[Autobot\|Autobots]] and [[Decepticon\|Decepticons]] waged the [[Great War (Animated)\|Great War]] over controlling it, with the Autobots only managing to defeat the Decepticons after they sent the AllSpark through a [[space bridge]] portal, keeping it safely out of evil hands and effectively removing the wild card from remaining battles. If wielded by Decepticons, it would be a weapon of destruction like no other. In other words, same thing as the movie.

	~~[[Image:AllsparkTFANI.jpg\|left\|200px\|thumb\|Before time began there was…the irregular decahedron.]]~~

	~~The [[Great War (Animated)\|Great War]] was won when the [[Autobot]]s transported the AllSpark through a [[space bridge]] to a remote corner of the galaxy where it would presumably never be found.~~

	Millions of years later, [[Optimus Prime (Animated)\|Optimus Prime]] and his crew of Autobots were repairing a space bridge when it activated on them. Once Prime shut down the bridge, they stumbled across the AllSpark, hidden away inside a rock, having apparently emerged while the bridge was active. [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Ratchet]] told them of its history and significance in the Great War, believing that the AllSpark had now found them, rather than the other way around. Almost immediately, the Decepticon leader [[Megatron (Animated)\|Megatron]] and his crew showed up in [[Nemesis (Animated)\|their warship]], tracking the AllSpark's energy readings. Megatron attacked the Autobots' fleeing [[Omega Supreme (Animated)\|ship]] to claim the AllSpark himself, but his attempt was sabotaged by a bomb placed on him by his lieutenant, [[Starscream (Animated)\|Starscream]]. The explosion sent the Autobots' ship careening out of control until the AllSpark activated the space bridge, which itself exploded after the ship went through.

	The ship emerged in low orbit over Earth and soon crash-landed in [[Lake Erie]], not far from [[Detroit]]. Fifty years later, the Autobots came out of emergency stasis and ventured into the city to save people from a rampaging monster. [[Bumblebee (Animated)\|Bumblebee]] quickly befriended a young girl named [[Sari Sumdac]], who convinced him to take her aboard the Autobots' ship when his teammate [[Prowl (Animated)\|Prowl]] was badly injured. While aboard, Sari came in contact with the AllSpark, which decided for some reason to open up to her—in more ways than one. It reconfigured her [[AllSpark Key\|security keycard]] into an exceedingly strong and powerful Cybertronian tool. With this new Key, Sari could revive Autobots,upgrade and modify electrical devices and appliances in seconds, screw up robots, detect AllSpark fragments, and much more.

	For a time, the Autobots were celebrated as Detroit's newest superheroes, but then Starscream tracked them down. He took hostages and demanded the AllSpark in exchange for their return. With Sari's help, the hostages were freed, but Starscream still managed to get hold of the AllSpark, and he quickly started obliterating sections of Detroit with it. Prime attempted to wrestle the AllSpark away from him, but again it opened, this time unleashing a powerful surge of energy that blasted away Starscream to parts unknown. Prime was left dangling from a tremendous height and quickly fell. [[The many deaths of Optimus Prime\|He did not survive the impact]], but in desperation, Sari used the reconfigured AllSpark Key on him. The AllSpark intervened directly this time, and Prime's [[spark]] was restored online. {{storylink\|Transform and Roll Out}}

	~~After this, the AllSpark remained on board the Autobots' at the bottom of Lake Erie for some time. {{storylink\|Lost and Found (episode)\|Lost and Found}}~~

	~~[[Image:Megatron Rising 2 All Spark Megs boom.jpg\|right\|200px\|thumb\|Ouch.]]~~
	The day of reckoning the Autobots had long feared came to pass when Megatron was restored and went to claim the AllSpark once again. Inserting the AllSpark into his chest, he planned to use it as a weapon to destroy Earth and conquer Cybertron. However, Optimus Prime used the AllSpark Key to crack the AllSpark. In the resulting energy surge, the AllSpark was destroyed and its energy dispersed. With its destruction, the Key became the most powerful Cybertronian artifact on the planet Earth, if not in [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)\|the universe]]. {{storylink\|Megatron Rising - Part 2}}


	~~====AllSpark Fragments====~~
	Crystalline shards of the AllSpark landed all throughout the greater Detroit area and were able to endow life into any machine with sufficient cybernetic technology. The first one discovered was in one of Isaac Sumdac's robots while he was working on Megatron's space bridge. It went haywire, and the Decepticons thought it was Sumdac, so Megatron blasted it and found the fragment in what was left of its arm. Megatron theorized that the shards could have spread across the entire world. A [[Sumdac Systems]] assembly line had empowered some Security Drones, which showed hostility to everything around them until they were either destroyed or had the AllSpark shards removed from them. Optimus's Autobots and the Elite Guard put a stop to this and extracted the AllSpark fragment from the controls. {{storylink\|The Elite Guard}}

	AllSpark shards are sufficiently strong and powerful enough to sustain Transformer life even after their sparks have been extinguished, as Starscream discovered. He later found an AllSpark shard in a truck and planted it on a train to lure out Megatron. {{storylink\|Mission Accomplished}}

	~~The fifth AllSpark fragment gave life to [[Wreck-Gar (Animated)\|Wreck-Gar]]. {{storylink\|Garbage In, Garbage Out}}~~

	The sixth AllSpark fragment was found in [[Master Disaster]]'s remote. This allowed him to control [[Blurr (Animated)\|machines]] and fix the results of his underground street races. {{storylink\|Velocity}}

	The seventh and eighth AllSpark fragments turned two construction vehicles into the [[Constructicon (Animated)\|Constructicons]] [[Scrapper (Animated)\|Scrapper]] and [[Mixmaster (Animated)\|Mixmaster]]. {{storylink\|Rise of the Constructicons}}

	The ninth AllSpark fragment was in [[Slo-Mo]]'s timepiece. This was able to slow down time around whatever electronic device on which it was used. It also was used to restore [[Nanosec]] to his rightful age. {{storylink\|SUV: Society of Ultimate Villainy}}

	~~Many of the fragments that the Autobots had were used to help [[Omega Supreme (Animated)\|Omega Supreme]] reboot and kick some Decepticon tail. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}~~

	~~One fragment, however, managed to get back into their custody following this, and was a contributing factor in the creation of [[Dirt Boss (Animated)\|Dirt Boss]].{{storylink\|Three's a Crowd}}~~

	Prowl later used his [[Processor-over-matter]] technique to materialize an AllSpark piece. Megatron also made use of AllSpark fragments salvaged from Omega Supreme in order to power his [[Lugnut Supreme\|three darker versions of Omega.]] {{storylink\|Endgame, Part I}}

	~~====Reformation====~~

	[[~~Image:TFA Prime with Matrix.jpg\|160px\|thumb\|right\|It may not light our darkest hour, but it sure does look cool.]]~~
	~~When the~~ [[Starscream Supreme\|former]] Lugnut Supremes threatened to explode and wipe out all of Detroit (as well as a sizeable amount of the surrounding area), Optimus came to the conclusion that the only thing that could save the city and its inhabitants was the power of the AllSpark~~, except that it was dispersed throughout all of Detroit. However Prowl and [[Jazz (~~Animated)\|Jazz]] were able to use their Processor-over-matter technique to bring together as many of the scattered fragments as possible, including the one lodged in Starscream's forehead. Unfortunately, not enough fragments were available so Prowl had to sacrifice his own Spark to complete the AllSpark and create a shield to contain the Starscream Supreme's explosion. The completed Allspark was put in [[Matrix of Leadership\|an interesting-looking container]] and [[The Transformers: The Movie\|hung on a chain around Prime's neck]] when the Autobots went back to Cybertron. {{storylink\|Endgame, Part II}}

	~~==Notes==~~
	* The AllSpark's powers, enigmatic origin, and storyline role are very similar to the [[AllSpark (Movie)\|synonymous device]] from the [[Transformers (2007)\|live-action movie]]. The look of the outer container, however, is more of an homage to the [[Matrix of Leadership]] (i.e. an orange-ish container with bracketed handles and a window in front that opens outward to reveal a glowing, blue, spherical crystal suffused with blue energy). However, the AllSpark here is angular and cubic rather than curved and spheroid like the Matrix, basically hybridizing the looks of the movie and Generation 1 devices. Unlike its Movie counterpart, it does not kill a Transformer that merges the power source, the inner crystal, with his/her Spark, but grants him/her great power as long as the crystal remains intact, a very similar effect to that of the [[Heart of Cybertron]].

	* At [[BotCon 2008]], ''Animated'' creative team [[Marty Isenberg]], [[Matt Youngberg]], and [[Derrick Wyatt]] stated that they had no intention of providing an in-story explanation of the AllSpark, because to do so would run the risk of making the artifact less interesting, or being so bizarre that it shattered the audience's willing suspension of disbelief, or being so wildly convoluted that explaining it all would get in the way of telling the actual story, or all of the above. They specifically cited the [[Star Wars]] prequel trilogy's "[[wikipedia:midichlorian\|midichlorian"]] explanation of the [[Force]] as something that convinced them it was better to let the AllSpark remain a mystery.
