It's been 30 years since the War for Cybertron ended. The Decepticons have won the war. The Autobots have been banished to intergalactic space, never to return, or else the Decepticons have the authority to kill any Autobot on sight. However, with the help of the people of Caminus, they have remained hidden on Caminus. On Cybertron, the Decepticons are rejoicing under the rule of Megatron. They are finishing up the reconstruction of Cybertron, they are almost finished repairing the buildings and speedways, with specifications from Megatron.

Elsewhere, the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, are currently hiding on Caminus, attempting to reach refugees, who fled Cybertron to other destinations. Optimus Prime believes that they still have a slim chance of fighting back, even though all hope looks to be lost. Optimus Prime knows deep down, that if they attack the Decepticons at this stage in time, Megatron will not hesitate to kill any of them on sight.

Finally, in another section of the universe, a new set of troops begin to target Cybertron, which places the Decepticons in severe danger. They hide in the shadows and are apparently fierce warriors who were banished from Cybertron by Sentinel Prime for treason. This new faction, has been slowly gathering an army, and soon enough, they will be ready to destroy the Autobots and Decepticons.

Now, after many reports, Megatron is now setting his sights on Caminus, and is secretly preparing to launch an attack that will wipe out the Autobots and the Camiens. If their is any hope at all, Optimus Prime must find a way to save Caminus from Megatron and prevent the extermination of the Autobot cause forever....Optimus will also learn more about the other inhabitants of Cybertron, which may hold the key to the Autobots survival.

Now, for some Rules/Guidelines:

- Just so everyone's aware, the moderators of this RP are Devaron9 and myself.

- Anyone who disobeys the rules are liable to be banned from playing. This includes the general forum rules, as well as the ones that follow. If it is a simple, salvageable, mistake, then chances are you’ll be forgiven, and given a quick notification, but if it becomes an increasing problem, you may very well be banned from the game.

- You are allowed to play as nearly any character except Shattered Glass.

- At the moment, you are allowed to play as at most, 15 Characters altogether, which you must supply bios and tech-specs for in this thread. Among this number, you are allowed only one Gestalt, however, this doesn’t require playing as all components in order to do so. As long as all components are present in game (regardless of who’s playing who), then a gestalt may be activated.

- As this is a strictly Transformers related RPG, characters from other franchises such as Bionicle, Kill la Kill or Gundam are not permitted.

- Though you are restricted to 15 (Five Autobots, Five Decepticons, Five Maximals/Predacons or Star Seekers) characters altogether at a time, you may discard a character in favor of another. This can be done as long as the character being switched in is not being played by another member. Discarded characters can be switched in again at a later time, and cannot be claimed by anyone else without the permission of the person who originally played them. For example, if I play Hot Rod and I drop him, Hot Rod cannot be claimed by anyone else unless I say it's ok, because I might want him back later.

- All changes to your character list should be updated in this thread for future reference.

- If you decide to go on a leave of absence, or are leaving the game altogether, please let it be known in this thread. If absent for too long, your characters may end up discarded.

- Please add some meat to your posts. It won’t get you banned, but one word replies are general discouraged. It would be recommended that you write enough so that the other player can respond with just the same. Also, don’t be afraid to show what your character is thinking. It can add some context for other players instead of having people guessing.

- That said, be realistic. Be sure to stay in character with whatever you’re doing. For example, Sludge probably wouldn’t be smart enough to tell if someone was being insulting, just as how Roadbuster would probably be too heavy to do any backflips in a fight. If you’re not sure about this section, try using your, and the other player’s tech specs as a reference.

- Try not to mistake IC for OOC or vice versa. Especially when it comes to character actions. Just because you hate the guy playing as Chromedome, doesn’t mean Rewind should drop a cinderblock on his head. In turn, don’t think the guy playing Misfire shot you because he hates you, it’s just part of the game.

- When it comes to combat, nothing is definitive. You can attempt to punch a character, but you can never say: “Sixshot stepped on Pipes”. Even if it doesn’t seem to be in their favor, you must let the other character react. You control only your character—you can only make actions, effects come after.

- Damage must be calculated by the person receiving the attack. That said, you can’t just dodge everything. Even if you’re playing the speediest ninja against the biggest brute, you can’t expect to attack and not get hit. Also be sure to use common sense. Regardless of the attack, it’s going to do some damage, and it’s going to hurt. Even characters like Ultra Magnus and Roadbuster aren’t able to just shrug off hit after hit. Tech specs are good for this, as when a character with high endurance is attacked by a character with moderate attack, then chances are it’ll hurt, but it won’t do too much. The best way to do this is to picture what your character would do in the situation and do it… but they still probably won’t be dodging any missiles.

- That said, nobody has to die. In fact it’s a rule not to kill another character without their consent. When it comes to canon characters especially, some might raise objections to the demise of certain characters, as it would result in them being taken off the available roster.

- A spy for any faction must be played collecting intel. They can't simply know what the other faction is doing unless they are played seeing it.

-Large Transformers like Metroplex or Trypticon are to be used by mods if the need arises. This rule also goes for characters that are deities or gods like the Thirteen, or Primus and Unicron.

-Combiners are controlled by the leader of the team. For example, the person playing Silverbolt would also control Superion.

- All changes to your character list should be updated in this thread for future reference.

"Let Justice be done..."

Appearance:

Faction: Autobot

Function: Law Inforcement Officer

Class: Deluxe

Bio: Clamp Down is a tough, dedicated cop who works tirelessly with his partners. Uncomplicated in his way of thinking, the straightforward, sometimes black-and-white view he has taken thanks to the Autobot/Decepticon war occasionally clashes with the views of co-workers, not to mention the legal system. But he gets results and in the end, that's what actually important.

"I know, I'm awesome!"

Appearance:

Faction: Autobot

Function: Ground troop support

Bio: Slingshot is a loud-mouthed, bragging jerk. Many believe that his annoying, self-aggrandizing, and abrasive personality is a cover for his insecurities over being the smallest and weakest Aerialbot. Just as many couldn't care less and just wish he would shut up, and/or go away.

--------Decepticons------------

Name: Onslaught
"Prepare for an onsluaght!"

Appearance:

Faction: Decepticon

Function: Comabticon leader, Strategist

Class: Voyager

Bio: Onslaught is what you'd call the "hands-off" type. He doesn't enjoy getting his mitts dirty, but instead prefers the thrill of designing battle plans, strategies, and tactics, and then watching his Combaticons soldiers carry them out. While he typically crafts his strategies to exclude his direct involvement, Onslaught is no coward. When required, he will engage in battle with strength, cunning and earthquaking fury. This darker, more brutish side of Onslaught might lead some Decepticons into thinking he has a secret blood-lust stashed away in his circuits. But truth be told, he's really just ticked off that his plans didn't work out the way they were supposed to.

Then, once he has learned everything they have to tell: SPLAT! He drops them from the sky to their death.

Bio: Wreckage is a former member of the Knights of The Light, but he did not leave with the honor a knight would. Out of pure greed he allied himself with the Decepticons and murdered his former brothers in arms single handedly. Cold, distant, and quiet; deliberate and methodical in his attacks, he enjoys watching his foe squirm in agony as his twin swords cut deep below their armor and takes pleasure in the sounds of their circuits popping and sizzling as his foe slowly dies an agonizing death.

I've added to Scrapper's armament, and increased his firepower rating, to better match the picture I used.

 

Just gonna repost the old bios for Hyperfire and Brainstorm. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Name: Hyperfire (OC)

"The future is for me to know...and for me to change."

Appearance: Make up robot mode in your head. Vehicle modes are a white Pontiac Fiero and a baby blue Cybertronian jet; robot mode has a mix of those colors.

Faction: Neutral

Bio: Hyperfire acquired a pocket-size temporal displacer (fancy term for "time machine that fits in your hand") from a street merchant who went by Puffer. In the interest of shifting the time in the favor of the Autobots, he has traveled back to the time of the Caminus resistance to aid them in their cause. He can't fight with them, however; he can only guide them and their actions at certain times in the hope that when he returns to Cybertron in the future, the Autobots will be in charge of business.

Weapons: Hip-mounted grenade launchers, flamethrower

Strength: 8

Intelligence: 10

Speed: 8

Endurance: 5

Rank: 4 (perhaps that might change when he returns to his time...)

Courage: 7

Firepower: 6

Skill: 8
-----------------------
Name: Brainstorm

"It's very simple to fool someone into believing you're weaker than you truly are."

Appearance:

Faction: Autobots

Vehicle mode: Cybertronian jet

Bio: Once one of the most promising musicians on Cybertron, Brainstorm was brought to Caminus due to the resistance requiring a few more good men. Nevertheless, he packed his keyboards and speakers and set them up in his quarters with the intent of writing new compositions and pushing his instruments to their limits. Such is what he spends most of his time on, with the members of the resistance divided on how they feel about his work; some think he's crazy, wasting his time, while others come into his room and hear a free concert of sorts. When he's free, he'll make himself useful and go on reconaissance or air strikes with the other flying Autobots. Perhaps one day, he'll have the opportunity to use his music on the front lines...

Weapons: Brain, Shoulder-mounted Cannons

The type of music Brainstorm plays:

Theme Song:

--------------
Name: Delta Magnus

"Sometimes, especially in situations like these, you don't need to carry a weapon to make a change."

Appearance:

Faction: Autobot

Vehicle mode: Car carrier

Bio: Several years ago, Delta Magnus had his thumb on the pulse of the music world as founder and CEO of one of Cybertron's top record labels, Protoform Music. When the war began, however, he engaged in several philanthropic efforts to assist in the wartime cause, eventually working his way up to a position among Optimus Prime's elite. Now, pushed out of his own office by the Decepticons, the battle has become personal to him. He resolves to lead and assist the Caminus resistance by any means possible until Megatron and co. are brought to justice.

That said, I'm hoping we can integrate Hyperfire more into the story. The story kept progressing while Hyperfire was in trouble with the law. If this is a reboot, I'd prefer to expedite that whole story passage, and if it's a continuation, I'd like to finish up with what was left and let the time travel stuff take its course.

 

Are you also going to sign Nacelle up again? Also, I would recommend claiming more characters. We need some more Autobots and Decepticons.

 

Depends on what we can do with him. I originally wanted for Hyperfire to help the Autobots with an assassination plot, and Nacelle would've been a target.

 

You claim who you want to claim. I was just asking. Also of note, unlike the last RP, we will be role-playing in the final battle on Cybertron and after the Autobots defeat, we will then skip forward to where to real RP will begin.

 

Sounds good. Gives Brainstorm something to do other than music duty.

 

Oh yeah, sorry about that, I was trying to get a feel for Prowl's stuck-up attitude.

Oooh, that ought to be fun.

 

Just to clarify, this is a reboot and not a continuation. Also, I would like to know your opinions on the matter. Should the limit be 20 characters, and disregard the faction rule? Or should the faction rule apply?
