Games

Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark

The Crystal Guardians were an ancient group of Transformers that originated from the Crystal City in an era where they stood alongside other groups, such as the Patterners and the Disciples of the Thirteen. In that era on Cybertron, there existed an artifact known as the Dark Spark, with both the Patterners and the Disciples debating its origins. It was the Crystal Guardians who decided to take action, after they saw the dark relic's destructive power and came to the conclusion that it needed to remain hidden forever. Thus, they hid it deep in an underground vault with a number of their warriors in stasis to keep watch over it, as well as to prevent others from seeking it. During the Great War, Megatron came to believe in the legend of the Dark Spark and dispatched Shockwave, Soundwave, and Starscream to acquire it. The Decepticons travelled into the underground vault, which woke the Crystal Guardians from their slumber. They fought the invaders to prevent them from acquiring the Dark Spark, but were defeated.
