Deeply spiritual, he was well-read about the legends of [[Primus]] and his arch-enemy [[Unicron]], and convinced that whenever he destroyed an opponent, the inner strength found within that enemy's spark joined his own. {{Storylink\|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook\|Beast Wars Sourcebook #3}}		Unlike what one would expect from a member of a technological race, Rhino was not too preoccupied with cold science.
