The name Cataclysm is applied to several elements of the Transformers franchise.

Transformer

In the BotCon storyline Transformers: Reaching the Omega Point, Cataclysm is a Predacon Herald of Shokaract and rival to Antagony for the position of Herald Maximo. He is also known to have a brother known as the Cub, who after a failed mission was attacked by Cataclysm himself and left on the edge of death. After merging with an ancient Autobot known as the Veteran and becoming Windrazor, the Cub returned to battle Cataclysm, both of them falling into a transwarp vortex leading to prehistoric Earth at the time of the Beast Wars. Cataclysm, who feared transwarp technology, had his fears realized during their battle, as Windrazor pushed him through a rift in the vortex opened by their fighting that caused him to be ripped apart.
