SARA is a powerful entity, created to be the emissary of the Creator of Cloud World. Sent to assist the Transformers of Cloud in their guardianship of the multiverse, she maintains Cloud World's integrity within the multiversal fabric and provides the spacetime energy necessary to power its network of Dimension Gates. To facilitate these duties, the Spacetime Police gather surplus energy from the universes they patrol to provide SARA with the energy she needs to function. Befitting her importance, she is worshipped by the Transformers of Cloud World and kept under heavy guard in its capital of Metropolis, but other forces have plans for the power that SARA represents...

Fiction

After her introduction into the time stream, SARA came to enjoy her position as manager of the Transformers' civilization. In turn, the inhabitants of Cloud World came to understand and respect SARA's position, and the power that allowed them to act as an inter-dimensional police force. Prologue Sara's true nature was a higher-order energy being, but interacted with the physical Transformers as a spherical "Unit Sparkbot" that was kept under Autobot protection at Metropolis Center. Resolve The Autobots grew dependent on SARA's power, her continuous well-being becoming necessary not only for the Autobots' own prosperity, but for that of many other universes as well. Raid For a time, her existence was kept a secret from those who dwelt in the "Underground". But eventually, machinations were put in place to exploit the power of SARA by the criminals banished from Metropolis. Prologue Megatron had grown envious of the Autobots' position of power within their city, and organized the Decepticon residents of the Underground into an army, informing them of his plan to use SARA to fuel his campaign of conquest. He then led his troops in a raid to usurp the Autobots' position as SARA's guardians. Uprising

While the Autobots were distracted on multiple fronts, the Decepticons managed to get to SARA and kidnapped her. Fate Shockwave confirmed to Megatron that SARA was in his possession and the Decepticon leader sounded a retreat. The Decepticons then returned to the Underground with SARA in tow. Resolve

Megatron and his Decepticons holed themselves up in a decrepit building, and the Decepticon leader began to wire the SARA orb into his own systems. Optimus Prime came upon the fiend in short order, and the extent of Megatron's megalomania was revealed; using SARA's power, he planned to conquer all of spacetime! Already enhanced, Megatron was able to overpower Optimus and the two 'bots backing him up, Hot Rodimus and Brawn. In a desperate gambit, Optimus managed to ram his nemesis, disrupting SARA's energy flow. As a result, the combatants were teleported to OG World, getting separated during the trip. With Optimus badly damaged, SARA, now in the form of a robotic girl, led the local Autobots to him. SARA watched silently as "Cloud Optimus Prime" awakened to the sight of the dimensional natives. Before any questions could be answered, the local Decepticons arrived and both factions began to fight. The Cybertronians of both sides were knocked down when blasts from both Optimuses collided with one of Megatron's, creating a brief lull on the battlefield... which was then interrupted by the appearance of "Cloud Megatron".

SARA was aware of the threat Grand Scourge posed to the multiverse and warned the Optimus Prime of the G1 World after Scourge invaded his universe. Decepticon Dark Commander Grand Scourge

At one point, SARA was captured by Deadlock, who used her powers to travel to the Legends World. There, her body was possessed by that universe's creators, the Zamojin, who considered the Cloud World Transformers unworthy of dominating the Spacetime World and sought to use SARA to take their place. Through their powers, SARA was expanded to the size of a giant and went on a rampage until Deadlock released all her energies, opening a gate back to Cloud World and burning her out. After she was reclaimed by the Autobots, she found that some Legends natives had been accidentally sucked into the portal and promised to return them... once she had recovered, that is.
