Cryak is Starscream’s mother. She was a scientist who had been abandoned by her teammates on an exploration. That had caused her to make an attempt on her own life, which ended with her instead being buried alive in stasis for millions of years to come.

Now, in present day, she had been dug out by a Rescue Bots team and taken back to their headquarters on this planet called Earth. The headquarters from she ran away from after sneaking through a ground bridge to USA mainland. Now she is aimlessly wandering the woods of America, roughly patched up, right arm and left eye missing and left thigh injured. She’s a stubborn woman.
