Blackarachnia hates her techno-organic beast mode with a passion. Once she was an Autobot Academy cadet, but when she was abandoned on an alien world by her former teammates, she was forced to adapt to the monstrous organic lifeforms that inhabited the world. Now she is trapped between organic and machine, unable to take a new form. The experience fueled a newfound hatred of the Autobots and a quest for revenge that led her to join Megatron in his war against the Autobots. Unlike the other few bots in similar circumstances, her absolute inability to blend in on Earth drives her insane, and she will do anything to get rid of it, no matter whom she has to crush in her path.

She also hates Blitzwing for singing a certain song.

When the All Spark was found by a group of Autobots, Blackarachnia was aboard the Nemesis with the other Decepticons, annoyed at Lugnut's emphatic, vocal loyalty to Megatron. She even suggested that Lugnut's speech of praise was hardwired into his mind. She also had conflict with Blitzwing, who touched a sore point by insulting her organic mode. Her retort to "blow it out your actuator, three-face" angered Blitzwing to the point that he...began to express his feelings in song. Later, at Megatron's orders, she scanned the Autobots' ship to determine the nature of their high-energy cargo. She confirmed the Autobots were carrying the All Spark, or at least something just as powerful. When the Autobots escaped and it became clear the Nemesis was going to crash into an exploding space bridge, Blackarachnia fled in an escape pod.

She will presumably play a large role in episode nine of Season One. It is also implied she will team up with Prometheus Black to perform some experiment that will possibly remove her beast mode. .
