Kaon (polity)
From MediaWiki
Kaon is a Decepticon-controlled city-state in the southern hemisphere of Cybertron.
Far from the civilized metropolitan titans of the north half of the planet, Kaon was populated by a radical people unsatisfied with the Autobot High Council and its maintained status quo. It was here that the industrial creations, the smelting pools, were first used to melt down living beings, a practice other city-states found horrible and barbaric. Disaffected, unruly, and thirsty for blood, Kaon was an obvious breeding ground for Megatron's underground Decepticon movement.
Its capital is the fortress city of Kolkular.

- Cybertron Primus
- Kolkular is one of two distiguishable cities molded into the surface of Primus' planet mode, designed specifically to match its appearance in Dreamwave's The War Within comics and DK's Transformers: The Ultimate Guide. In Primus' robot mode, Kolkular ends up on the underside of Primus' heel, which is probably symbolic.
- The other city is the Autobot city-state Iacon, which, similar to the depiction on the Cybertron map in the Ultimate Guide, is placed on the opposite end of the toy from Kolkular. Its placement, however, is likely a coincidence.
Trivia
- Kolkular was first mentioned in the short story Alignment. The Decepticon homeworld of New Cybertron included a complete re-creation of the domed fortress.
