This article is about the Decepticon fortress from Generation 1. For the character named Darkmount from Generations, see Straxus (G1).
Darkmount is a location on Cybertron from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Decepticon doors aren't centered just to piss you off. They're that evil.

Darkmount is a fortress on Cybertron, the capital of Decepticon-controlled Polyhex. For a period of time during the Great War it was the seat of power for Lord Straxus, who fed dissenters to the smelting pool, a cauldron of magma which sat menacingly in Darkmount's shadow.[1] The smelting pool empties through ducts into a canyon which Darkmount overlooks.[2]
