| '''[[Unicron]]''' is the eternal arch-enemy of his twin brother [[Primus]]. Also known as the [[Lord of Chaos]], the Chaos Bringer, and the Planet Eater, he is dedicated to consuming the [[multiverse]]. His massive form is powered by the consumption of planets, moons, stars, and even the very fabric of existence. Unicron will not be sated until his ultimate goal is attained: to bring an end to the annoying creation boasting independence around him, and find peace by becoming the living center of a [[Void|swirling, infinite torrent of nothingness]] at the end of all things. | | '''Ectronymous Diamatron''' (nicknamed '''[[Ectotron]]''') has learned that sometimes, you just have to roll with what life throws at you. A bit of a stuffy, fussy bot by nature, he's learned that whether it's dealing with beings who can't pronounce his full name (or just don't want to) or getting splattered with spectral marshmallow goop, better to just go with it and soldier on. |

| To undertake this seemingly overwhelming task, Unicron is able to travel across realities at will, a meandering plague upon existence itself.<ref>Titanium Series 3" Unicron profile</ref><ref>Universe Armada Series Unicron bio</ref> Integrated into his systems are incomprehensible quantum computers which calculate probabilities forward and backwards in time, in perpetuity, giving his processors an ever changing, evolving map of the multiverse.<ref>Profile, [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 10|''Hasbro Transformers Collector's Club'' #10]]</ref> With these abilities at his disposal, Unicron has thus far devoured approximately 22.56% of known universes. Seen at a detached distance from the multiverse, this collective "'''Unicron Phenomenon'''" acts with the characteristics of a virus or plague seeping through reality, succeeding where it can, retreating when it cannot.<ref>According to the [[Transcendent Technomorph]]s' records in "[[Withered Hope]]."</ref> Various permutations of Unicron can spawn into existence outside the trappings of the larger entity, hailing from a more mundane origin but possessing the same consumptive traits.<ref>Decoded [[Ask Vector Prime]] text within "[[Transformers Animated: The Complete AllSpark Almanac]]".</ref> For much of multiversal history, the singularity Unicron threatened all of existence, but now, [[Shroud|that is no longer the case]], versions of Unicron being restricted to their own dimensions.
| | It's how he's ended up working with the [[Ghostbusters]], a team of [[human]] paranormal investigators. Now in the guise of their (semi)reliable [[Ecto-1]] vehicle, this theoretical physicist finds himself in the company of a group who ''don't'' think he's really all that weird, given what they've been through. Plus, now he's got a Cybertronian-sized ion-throwing [[proton pack]] and neutrino wand, which is pretty dang useful against foes both physical and ectoplasmic. |
| | |
| Within Unicron is a set of organic caverns strewn with his internal defenses. Those unlucky enough to be consumed by Unicron are captured and dissolved in putrid acid pools. Deep within Unicron is his core.
| |
| | |
| The only thing that he fears is Primus's essence, contained inside the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]]. To a being of chaos and uncreation, this font of life is a poison.
| |
| | |
| Frequently, Unicron will make deals with [[Herald of Unicron|lesser beings]], promising them vast new powers in exchange for their servitude. These minions are [[Thunderwing (G1)|sometimes]] stripped entirely of their free will, but [[Sideways (Armada)|others]] follow him willingly. Service to Unicron, however, is a double-edged sword, for it causes insanity and loss of self. And in the end, Unicron's plans ultimately call for their consumption as well.
