Chaar is the planet where the Decepticons settled after being driven from Cybertron. It is a burned-out, barren husk of a planet. The planet is far from dead, however, what with the monstrous Chaar spider and energy leeches. Deadly, but not dead.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
After the battle against Unicron in 2005, the Autobots successfully drove away all the Decepticons occupying Cybertron. With Galvatron missing, the Decepticons became directionless and chose to seek refuge on the burned-out world of Chaar.
The Decepticons nearly starved to death on the wasteland of a planet, until Cyclonus and Scourge successfully retrieved Galvatron from his resting place on Thrull. Reinvigorated, the Decepticons gradually transformed the planet into a suitable place to live, with cities and battle stations.

Notes
- The spelling "Chaar" (two As, one R) was first revealed in the Marvel Comics adaptation of The Big Broadcast of 2006. Years later, the same spelling was found in internal Sunbow Productions documents, such as the dialogue scripts. This means that the planet's official spelling has been known since 1988... yet "Charr" still persists in the fandom to this day. Oh well.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Jaar (ジャール Jāru)[1]
- English: Jolo (Omni Productions dub)
- Spanish: Estrella Mortis (American The Headmasters)
References
- ↑ ジャール is romanized on a computer screen in "Daniel Faces His Biggest Crisis Ever!!" as "Jarl". Even still, "Jaar" is preferred due to its closer similarity to "Chaar".
