Fiction
IDW Generation 1 continuity
Ten million years ago, the Maximal who would become "Hound" was one of the many Maximals who followed "Onyx Prime", unaware or uncaring that this member of the Thirteen Primes was in fact a time-travelling Shockwave. Following the end of the First Cybertronian Civil War, Onyx and his Maximals departed Cybertron for good, and set a course for the dead world of Antilla. In time, Onyx would uncover the artifact he dubbed the "Talisman", part of an ancient doomsday weapon responsible for the planet's destruction.
Twenty thousand years ago, the future "Hound" was part of an expedition under the command of Domitius Major, as part of his larger goals, Onyx decided to have the Talisman relocated to Earth, and enlisted the crew of the starship Axalon to do so. Our Finest "Hound" and his shipmates were evidently not aware of the full scope of "Onyx's" plans, nor the paradoxical nature of their impending voyage; they reached Ice Age Earth solely by accident, having been drawn off-course to refuel their ship after a ten-thousand year voyage. While preparing to land, however, their ship was intercepted by the younger Shockwave, who had come to investigate his Regenesis project. Shockwave confused the crew aboard with a bounced broadcast of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee before easily shooting them down and causing their ship to crash in prehistoric Brasnya. In the crash, the Talisman aboard the Axalon scrambled the memories of the crew.
Centurion's subsequent amnesia inspired Shockwave to use the crew of the Axalon in a cruel experiment, altering their appearances and memories to convince them that they were the Autobots and Decepticons of Cybertron. Brainwashed into believing he was "Hound", he took part in the simulated "Ice Age Wars" on Earth as part of Shockwave's wargames. Eventually, the climate worsened and the energon stores ran out, and when Shockwave departed, the ersatz Autobots and Decepticons went into hibernation. Strange Visitors
