Terrakor
The Terrakors are one of two races that live on Skalorr in Xobitor universal streams. Centuries ago, they were a race of primitive and aggressive organics, constantly at war with their neighbors the Protectons. When their war was interrupted by their sun going supernova, they took refuge underground in hibernation. The radiation wound up damaging their original bodies beyond repair, so the Compu-Core transferred some of their essences into robotic bodies.
Since their re-awakening, the surviving Terrakors have formed mutual partnerships with the crew of the crashed Daniel Boone. The stranded humans discovered that they can utilize an organic interface, which allow the Terrakors to metamorphose and combine into all kinds of shapes and sizes.
Their members include:
- The evil, creatively-named Nemesis: partnered with Kanawk Creant
- Nemesis's second-in-command Tyrannix: partnered with Gaxon Graves
- The dimwitted Goon: partnered with Loopis Cur
- The calculating Venturak: partnered with Traxis Janussen
- The slippery Steggor: partnered with Nomo Yel

Spacewarp's Log
Centuries ago on the planet Skalorr, the reptilian Terrakors co-evolved with their industrious mammalian neighbors the Protectons. After years of war between the two species, the conflict was abruptly halted by the revelation that there sun was on the verge of going nova! The two sides then worked together to build an underground chamber to save them all, where they would enter hibernation until the planet was safe. Also built were large Robotix to repair their world after the destruction. While in their underground chambers however, a radiation leak damaged them all beyond repair, causing Compu-Core to transfer some of their essences into the Robotix bodies. The war then ensued on Skallor’s ruined surface, where both sides teamed up with the stranded crew of a human ship. The Terrakors eventually being defeated and stranded in Skalorr's orbit.
After being attacked and nearly shot down by a nearby Ejoornian ship, Spacewarp was saved by the Terrakors. As thanks, Spacewarp carried them and their human companions back down Skalorr. They filled the Decepticon in on their history, and Spacewarp noted that as a Decepticon, she felt a kinshiphich with the villainous cyborgs. Before she could find a way back to her home reality, however, she was double-crossed by the Terrakor leader Nemesis! The Terrakors' human allies pinned down Foldspace while she herself was surrounded by the Terrakors. Although Foldspace managed to escape and fly away, the Terrakors dragged Spacewarp to an abandoned laboratory, intending to dissect her and use her as spare parts. After some convincing from her partner Foldspace, the Protectons saved Spacewarp from being dissected by the evil Terracors. Later, the Terrakors invaded a lab containing vital parts for Compu-Core. There they transformed its machinery into weapons to be used against the Protectons! Spacewarp's Log (2), 2016/01/23 Spacewarp eventually helped repulse the Terrakors from the lab, but damaged her engines in the process. Her and the Protectons then searched elsewhere for the needed parts. On returning to Zanador, the group discovered that Argus—leader of the Protectons—and the skeleton crew they'd left behind had been ambushed by the full force of the Terrakors. Luckily, Spacewarp's engines had repaired themselves overnight, and her airborne alternate mode helped turn the tide and defeat the Terrakors for the moment. Spacewarp's Log (2), 2016/01/24
Notes
- The first instance of "Terrakor" in Transformers fiction was misspelled as "Terrokor". This was corrected in later fiction.
