Terrorcon (Energon)
The Terrorcons are a special class of Decepticons. Though some are fully sentient Transformers, the majority are little more than expendable, mass-produced drones. Terrorcon altmodes generally take the form of robotic beasts.
The Terrorcons of the Energon Battles have an unusual ability, shared with the Omnicons, to handle and process raw energon, from which they can create energon weapons or power-booster cells known as Energon stars.
Fiction
Dreamwave comics continuity
Following the end of the Autobot/Decepticon war, Scorponok organized the Terrorcons as a neo-Decepticon faction with the goal of restarting the great war. Scorponok made a deal with Alpha Quintesson, in which the group would help the Quintesson to achieve its ends in return for Hyper Power abilities drawn from Unicron himself. Through unknown means, the Terrorcons Battle Ravage, Cruellock, Divebomb, and Insecticon were later granted the ability to create mass-produced duplicates of themselves, which could be employed as vast armies of combat drones.
