| '''Carcer''' was one of the [[Metrotitan (body-type)|Titans]] created by the legendary [[Knights of Cybertron]] to act as a living ship. Unlike many of his siblings, Carcer never actually colonized a planet; permanently transformed into his starship form, he and his occupants chose to live a nomadic life among the stars.

| Millions of years ago, Carcer and the other 12 colony Titans departed [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to found new outposts of Cybertronian civilization. {{storylink|First Contact (IDW)|First Contact}} Carcer travelled through space for eons, and as his natural resources began to diminish his occupants began sacrificing their own bodies to keep their Titan alive. Eventually, [[Elita One]] became captain, ruling from a chair composed of the bodies of Carcer's greatest heroes- all of whom had given their lives in the service of their ship. The straitened inhabitants learned to value three things above all else: efficiency, security, and truth. {{storylink|The Will of the Few}}

| After Cybertron decided to re-establish contact with its abandoned colonies, the First Titan [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] located Carcer with his sensors. {{storylink|First Contact}} During their climatic battle, [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] kicked [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] through Metroplex's space bridge and onto Carcer's hull, although Optimus quickly rebounded and dived back through to Cybertron. {{storylink|All That Remains}} Several weeks later, [[Windblade (G1)|Windblade]] and [[Starscream (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Starscream]] arrived to make formal contact. Believing that they were arriving[[Tempo]], a Titan crewed by peaceful philosophers, they were surprised by Carcer's militaristic ways. Elita One claimed that they had renamed Tempo into Carcer, although Windblade knew that Carcer and Tempo were two separate Titans. After some political wrangling, the two ambassadors were able to convince Carcer to join the [[Council of Worlds]]; they chose to send [[Strika (BM)|Strika]] and [[Obsidian (BM)|Obsidian]] as ambassadors.

| * "Carcer" is Latin for "prison", which raises a lot of questions about Carcer and its inhabitants.
