The Chamber of Vector Sigma (here known as the Oracle) was a massive structure located near the very core of Cybertron. An ornate bridge was located where one could approach the Oracle and consult it. After the Oracle caused Technorganic plants to arise from the ground, the Chamber became the Maximals' home base. A large water distribution system was placed above the orchard to irrigate it. Sparkwar Pt. I: The Strike

Vector Sigma's chamber was located beneath Kaon. When Jack Darby and Arcee came to Cybertron, the chamber reacted to the Key in the former's possession, the pathway emerging in a gladiatorial arena. After an Insecticon defeated Arcee, it tore down the chamber's door and followed Jack inside, only to meet its end when Jack made it the target of a scarplet swarm. Rebooting, Arcee followed into the chamber only to meet Jack, who had already downloaded the supercomputer's knowledge, halfway. Orion Pax, Part 3

In 2017, Joe Colton's Iron Ring, seeking to destroy Cybertron and the Transformers, descended into Cybertron to merge the Talisman with Vector Sigma. Seeing the threat, Vector Sigma began releasing energy bolts against the intruders when they got too close to its chamber, unleashing an Insecticon swarm when they got too close. First Strike #5 When the Iron Ring faced further resistance, Merklynn decided to make the best of it and had the Talisman terraform a portion of the outer chamber into New Prysmos. First Strike #6

Undeterred, the Talisman continued to burrow through the chamber to reach Vector Sigma. Schismatic Cybertron No More Wheeljack subsequently developed an anti-magic bomb to inoculate Vector Sigma against the Talisman's necrotic energies, intending to detonate it in the lowest levels of Vector Sigma's antechamber. Good Men When the bomb detonated, it reacted with the energies of Galadria's healing spell, preserving Vector Sigma and raising New Prysmos to Cybertron's surface. The Curtain

The Functionist Universe

In a universe where Megatron was never born, the Functionist Council and the Senate came to loggerheads over the use of Nova Prime's stockpile of frozen sparks to increase the planet's population. The Functionist Council deemed the practice heretical against the teaching of Adaptus. In response, the Senate sealed Vector Sigma behind a wall of impenetrable ununtrium. In turn, the Council gathered an army of devoted followers, seized the Matrix of Leadership, and executed Nominus Prime and the Senate for blasphemy. A World Misplaced Since ununtrium walls could be cut by ununtrium blades, the wall around Vector Sigma was little more than an inconvenience for the Functionists, but they left the supercomputer alone out of fear that their collective alternate mode was not needed to activate it.

Five million years later, the Council found a way to save face and quickly drilled through the chamber's walls to reach Vector Sigma. To stop the Council from perverting Vector Sigma, Team Rodimus teleported into the chamber and managed to rescue Rung, halting their plans. Bad Moon Rising Modes of Production
