Rite of Oneness
- The Rite of Oneness is a Cybertronian custom from the Marvel Comics portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Rite of Oneness is one of the most sacred Cybertronian rituals. No Autobot has ever broken it. It is used to cement agreements. All participants contribute a bit of their most precious bodily fluid—their fuel—into a vessel. The fuel is then burned. To break the pact is to forfeit one's very life.
