When the liege Maximo gave Predaking the power to think on his own, he created his own army. Known as the Predacons. His army was strong, but the Maximals were made to counter the Predacons. Soon the Maximals began to get stronger, and the Predacon forces were wavering. Feeling his empire falling, Predaking summoned four of his greatest warriors from the Predacon ranks. Ramhorn, Seaclamp, Cicadon, and Predacus. Predaking needed a warrior who could be used as a last measure of defense in his army, and as one who could lead it. Ramhorn possessed great intelligence, Seaclamp possessed great strength, Cicadon possessed great military combat skills, and Predacus possessed great courage, endurance, and leadership ability. Predaking felt that all four of these warriors would be an excellent choice, but unfortunately, they did not possess the size to defend Predaking if needed. He offered them a chance to be redesigned as a gestalt, combining their minds into one. Predacus refused to join into one robot with the others, but Predaking offered him the chance for a new body as the gestalt itself. He would have Ramhorn's intelligence, Seaclamp's strength, and Cicadon's skill. Predacus still refused, so Predaking extracted his spark from his body with one hand, ripping it from his core matrix. As the process began to form the three remaining warriors into a gestalt. Predaking secretly fused Predacus' flickering spark into all three of the warriors minds. Once the process was finished, the three emerged more powerful than ever, each with a mind link to the other, and a curious feeling that Predacus was not dead. In a grand Predacon ceremony, the three were given the title of General and given certain political and military aspects of the Predacon armies to control. One day while in the presence of Predaking to discuss strategies and politics, Razorbeast emerged from hiding and attempted to assasinate Predaking. The three merged and fended off the rogue Maximal. After the fight was over, the gestalt turned to Predaking and spoke, "I thought you killed me." Predaking replied,"You were too valuable to me not to be a part of the gestalt project. Like me, you are the fusion of several minds and bodies into one. Do you feel the strength coursing through your curcuits?" "Yes, I do. And I feel the three general's minds incorporated into my own, I feel stronger, smarter, and more agile than ever. Predacus is dead, so you will call me Tri-Predacus from now on. I must thank you Predaking, I doubted your motives." "And let that be a lesson for you never to question me again. You shall lead my army Tripredacus, now disengage and let your three components rest. Every time you merge, you put great stress on their curcuitry and joints, so you must not be on line very often." "Understood Predaking." And without further talk, Tripredacus disengaged to form three dazed and confused generals. Under the supervision of Predaking, Tripredacus leads the Predacons in the fight for control of Cybertron and the destruction of all Maximals and remaining Autobots.
