Toraxxis mega-refinery


 * The Toraxxis mega-refinery was a facility on Cybertron.



Located in the remote Toraxxis Plains of Cybertron, the Toraxxis mega-refinery was one of the planet's largest sources of energon, having an output of 8 billion megaliters of energy per production cycle. Bafflingly, it had very poor security for such an important location: at night, the entire refinery was protected only by its permacrete walls and a single guard in control of a group of sentry drones.

MUX History
With Cybertron suffering from a massive energon shortage early in the war, the Toraxxis mega-refinery was the last major energy source remaining on the planet. However, something deactivated the refinery's fusion-regulator, which overloaded the fusion-core and destroyed Toraxxis and everything around it. The resulting explosion could be seen from space and not only killed thousands of Cybertronians, but also robbed Cybertron of a vital source of energon, forcing many more to abandon their planet. A team of scientists were sent to the irradiated Toraxxis crater by Optimus Prime to search for any traces of fuel, and found that the explosion had opened up long forgotten caverns.
