## Biography

### Early life

Breakdown was born on Cybertron at an unknown point.

### Assaut on the energon plant

At some point during the Cybertronian War, Breakdown was taken to an Energon Plant along with Sideways by Starscream. Their plan was to kill the four Autobots - Arcee, Elita-One, Chromia and J4U - that were in the Autobot Sector just meters away from the base. While Starscream hid behing the elevator, Breakdown and Sideways broke into the plant and went into the infirmary, triggering an alarm. The Autobots quickly arrived to the plant with Arcee, Elita and Chromia going into the elevator while J4U checked the infirmary. Upon coming in, Breakdown and Sideways attacked him but he quickly ran out of the room and locked the two Decepticons in there. The elevator was then destroyed by Starscream who killed the three Autobots that were in it before he fled. Breakdown and Sideways managed to escape from the plant soon after as well.

### The Distraction and death

In 2016, two years after Megatron the leader of the Decepticons was killed, Starscream sent Breakdown and several protoforms to distract the Autobots while he and the Constructicons went to resurrect Megatron. Breakdown and the Protoforms decided to capture Subwoofer, the recreated J4U, as this would lead the rest of the Autobots to his location.

After Subwoofer killed most of the Protoforms at Sam's college he climbed up on a roof where Breakdown was located. He then knocked the Autobot off of the roof and he fell unconscious upon hitting the ground. Breakdown brought the unconscious Autobot to a Stadium where he, with the help of two remaining Protoforms, took off his inventory and displaying it in the middle of the stadium before trapping him onto a pole. When the Autobot woke up Breakdown explained to him that he didn't kill him because he received orders but that he will soon join Arcee and her sisters and that he should get ready or disasembeling. Subwoofer managed to escape from his trap and grabbed his sword howevhere, so Breakdown and the Protoforms attempted to dispose of him. Subwoofer managed to slain both Protoforms leaving only Breakdown. Breakdown made one final attempt to kill his opponent but was killed as well but not before he said "May Primus live again".

### Legacy

Although Breakdown had passed away he successfully fulfilled his task, as the rest of the Autobots soon arrived in order to help Subwoofer. This enabled Starscream and the Constructicons to resurrect their fallen leader. Breakdown was mentioned by NEST when they were talking about Megatron's resurrection and later again by Optimus when he told Subwoofer that Starscream only sent him to psychlogicaly warfare against Sub. Subwoofer later told Sam Witwicky, Mikaela Banes, Bumblebee, Skids, Mudflap and Jolt about the day when Breakdown, Sideways and Starscream killed Arcee, Elita and Chromia.
