- Rum-Maj is a Junkion from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Formerly an inhabitant of Junkion, Rum-Maj roams the cosmos alongside her consort Wreck-Gar, searching for a way to help restore their shattered world. Calm almost to the point of cold and possessing a grimly pragmatic streak, she provides a stark contrast to the excitable, gabby Wreck-Gar.
Fiction
IDW Generation 1 continuity
Fleeing the destruction of Junkion when the Cybertronian Great War spilled over onto their world, Rum-Maj, Wreck-Gar, and thousands of Junkion refugees became nomads, travelling through space aboard a gigantic corkscrew-shaped vessel. A Lonely Pillar on the Plain To Walk Among the Chosen Scavenging what technology and trinkets they could as they travelled from world to world, the Junkions eventually chanced upon Earth and its ample supplies of Ore-13. A Lonely Pillar on the Plain
Making planetfall in the Alps, To Walk Among the Chosen Wreck-Gar and Rum-Maj were welcomed by Optimus Prime and the Autobots, who had detected the arrival of their ship. The two Junkions explained that they had come to Earth in the hopes of trading their technological secrets for Ore-13, which they could use to rebuild their planet. What negotiations there were - Rum-Maj being skeptical about Prime's diplomatic status - were cut short when a G.I. Joe unit showed up, complicating matters as a curious Wreck-Gar found himself on the wrong end of the humans' military power. Forcing the Autobots to withdraw, Optimus and Rum-Maj agreed to meet later. The Junkion leaders visited Autobot City, where Optimus gave them a tour of the base; the Junkions offered the Transformers a legendary positron core in exchange for Ore-13. A Lonely Pillar on the Plain
Back aboard her vessel, Rum-Maj watched as Cosmos, Frenzy, and Rumble carried out a covert infiltration of the Junkion cruiser, unaware that their stealth augmentations failed to conceal them from advanced Junkion sensors. Before long, the three Cybertronians stumbled upon a horde of Sharkticons. Behind My Bleeding Back Wreck-Gar and Rum-Maj observed their defeat; while Wreck-Gar was still keen to make a deal with the Transformers, Rum-Maj asserted that they couldn't trust Optimus and began planning reprisal. During the next summit between Optimus, the Junkions, and several human leaders at Metrotitan, Rum-Maj and Wreck-Gar tossed Cosmos' body off their shuttle as a warning; on Rum-Maj's orders, a school of Sharkticons rained down on the assembled Transformers and humans alike. Dance Among the Shadows
Rum-Maj gleefully watched as her troops engaged the Transformers; when Optimus Prime retaliated by unleashing Metrotitan on the Junkion mothership, Rum-Maj joined her troops as they stormed the Titan's flight deck, shouting encouragement to the Junkion warriors. Then Soundwave managed to turn the Sharkticons against their masters, prompting Rum-Maj to murmur that the Cybertronians were more dangerous than she thought. Future Glories Lost

Notes
- Her name is an awful, awful pun.
