Tyrest Accord

The Tyrest Accord is a bit of legalese from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

The Tyrest Accord is an agreement between the Autobots and the Decepticons; it governs the control of Transformer technology, forbidding it from passing into the hands of alien species. Roving free-lance officers such as Ultra Magnus track down violators of the Accord, bringing them back to the High Justice counsel of their respective faction.

It may be related to the Code of Interplanetary Conflict, and was likely signed in Tyrest.

He brought in Swindle, but ultimately let him go in exchange for information on one of the Accord's worst violators, Scorponok. Spotlight: Ultra Magnus

As is his wont, Magnus cited the Accord again as he attacked and apprehended Arcee at the Stellar Cartography Archive. Spotlight: Arcee
