Doriya
- Dorya are critters from the Victory cartoon portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Dorya (ドリャ) are large green bugs with a taste for metal. Specifically, they eat super-robot lifeform metal and are therefore perfect for the Decepticons to use in their war. They also have acid for blood, making stomping on them a dubious cure.
- English-Malay dub name: Assassin bugs
Fiction
Victory cartoon
After Drillhorn learned about the Dorya from a local on Planet X, Hellbat was sent to the bugs' homeworld, where he managed to find some in a cave and bring them back to the Thunder Arrow. After the success of their breeding program, the Decepticons had enough Dorya to put to use in their latest plan to defeat the Autobots.
The Decepticons destroyed Egg Rock, luring Star Saber to the area where they were able to trap him in a force field dome and unleash the Dorya on him. The Autobot leader was soon overcome by the bugs and helpless to fight back against them. When the Brainmasters attempted to come to Star Saber's aid, Hellbat threw them some Dorya too.
Jean, piloting the Illumina II, managed to breach the force field dome and get Victory Leo inside. When Star Saber realised that the Dorya were ignoring Jean's mech, he reasoned that the bugs were attacking the Autobots based on the heat they were emitting, and Victory Leo's use of a freezer beam destroyed the bugs attacking them.
Routed, the Decepticons fled, with Hellbat accidentally spilling the rest of the Dorya on himself. The Death-Bringing Space Insects!!
