vFeatured Article
The Age of Wrath is a period early in Cybertron's history, characterized by the Quintesson invasion, their temporary rule of Cybertron, and the planet's revolt against their masters.
Because the Great Cataclysm had severely disrupted the development of Cybertron's societies, the comparatively young Cybertronian race had lagged behind in their technological and social development and lived in a largely feudal society ruled by scattered kings and warlords. When the Quintessons — the forgotten efforts of Quintus Prime — discovered the planet, they began observing the planet and its inhabitants remotely. Before long, the Quintessons began abducting lone Cybertronians and implanting probes in their bodies. One early victim was the menial worker Coldwelder, who sought medical treatment from Ratchet and Cogwheel after his traumatic experience.
Soon afterward, the Quintessons revealed themselves to the masses, landing their ships in all of Cybertron's population centers. Claiming to be emissaries sent to "uplift" Cybertron, they won the adoration of Cybertronians by revealing the secret of the T-cog, which allowed Cybertronians to assume other shapes. The Covenant of Primus Transformers: Retribution The Quintessons shared their technological knowledge with Cybertronians, artificially accelerating Cybertron's public and private infrastructure and introducing the Transformers to spaceflight and dimensional travel. The Quintessons established the rule of law and helped regulate the High Council, overseen by Sentinel Prime, a member of the Elite Guard.
