The Energon Pub

Please forgive the most likely poorly written premise. I'm being lazy with it.

A 16 year old named Markus discovered a fragment that awakens the Autobots and Decepticons as well as merging with him, granting him a special power. While the Decepticons plot to take over this new world they've crashed on, the Autobots protect while protect Markus, whose new power allows him to work with them in their battle.

First off, some of you may be wondering how I came up with this and a short few of you may be wondering where my screenname came from. Sometime ago, before the first live-action movie, when I was a fan of Nickelodeon's Danny Phantom, for some reason I did this somewhat embarassing crossover with Transformers, more appropriately if the Transformers landed on the same Earth the cast of Danny Phantom was on. I called it "Phantom Prime". It was popular on Butch Hartman's forums that I thought about making a sequel. The work I did really got me interested in Transformers again, so much so I learned more about the franchise, from the different names used to different alternate modes and what voice actors were involved. I gave up on the sequel and have been working on my own fan series. I've been drawing the Autobots and Decepticons I want for years and now I'm considering to actually write some stuff.

I admit, because I want to work in animation, I wanted to actually make this into a real series... and I MIGHT... after I accomplish my number one dream cartoon which isn't of importance on this website.

On to my fan work. There are 10 Autobots and 10 Decepticons who crash and thus begin their battle. It is based on a multitude of Transformers incarnation and I'm not trying to make something "GREATER THAN ANY OTHER TRANSFORMERS FANFICTION" I want to make something fans of all incarnations will like... which technically would make it greater... For those who wonder what power Markus has... well, I was lazy at the time so it will be similar to an ability someone with similar name has on Digimon.

Since my computer is buggy right now, I'll talk more on it later.

I like the idea PP I really like the concept. Would you mind if I tell you my concept idea?

Sure.

Wow I almost forgot about this topic I made.

Well, after dealing with an idiot who favors that stupid Zelda cartoon over Transformers, disrespecting it all the way until I won the argument, I am back and wish to add more. Where was I?

Ah yes. Anyway, I should get into the characters, what they do, what they turn into and so forth.

Optimus Prime - Peterbilt 320 (Preferred VA: Peter Cullen) Optimus Prime, supreme leader of the Autobots, decides to lead a small group through space in search of a new world for the Autobots to call home when Cybertron begins to show signs of dying out. Optimus Prime has a deeper backstory, showing that in his pre-Autobot days, his name was Optronix and was friends with 3 other Transformers named Dion Magnum, Skyfire and Megaplex (Guess who they become). That's right, Optimus and Megatron were once the best of friends. And I actually rather like those tales were two enemies were once like brothers. The reason I would have Peter Cullen's voice is not just because he is the greatest, but because of symbolic reasons. Optimus is an old warrior still clinging on to a dream and carrying out a promise and despite how old he is he's still a respectful and proud leader. (I know that sounds stupid to some but that's the best I can describe it)

Bumblebee - Ford Focus Coupe (Preferred VA: Yuri Lowenthal) The youngest of the 10 Autobots and part of duo with Rodimus. Bumblebee is young, friendly and optimistic and is always trying to prove himself by taking on every mission he is given. However, he's also afraid of making mistakes that could cause him to lose his Autobot logo.

Rodimus - SSC Aero (Preferred VA: Josh Keaton) The second youngest and best friends with Bumblebee. While they aren't brothers, they have a bond only Autobot twins can understand. Like Bumblebee, he's young, optimistic and eager to prove himself a worthy Autobot. Unlike Bumblebee, he's more impulsive and is more eager to disobey if it means saving the day. He looks up to Prime like a father-figure and aspires to one day stand next to him as one of the greatest. Prefers to go by "Hot Rod".

Jazz - Hyundai Genesis Coupe (Preferred VA: Phil LaMarr) One of the lieutenants and the special operations expert of the group. Jazz is very approachable and acts as a big brother to the younger Autobots. He knows how to go with the flow and improvise when the time comes and enjoys learning all he can Earth customs, especially music.

Prowl - Carbon Motors E7 (Preferred VA: Crispin Freeman) The other lieutenant and the military operations strategist. Unlike Jazz, Prowl is a stern, loyal, by-the-books officer that doesn't take kindly to disobedience, ignorance or improvisation when it comes to his plans or rules. Because of this, the two do not seem to get along at first, forcing Optimus to make them partners. Within time, they begrudgingly begin to respect one another.

Ironhide - Dodge Ram (Preferred VA: Jeff Bennett) The weapons expert and greater hothead than Rodimus. Ironhide was once a careless Autobot who just wanted to have fun, even if at the expense of others. His tomfoolery would cause him to lose friends to the Decepticons and ended up getting a scar under his left optic. Since then, he's sword to never let the Decepticons get away with their ways. Ironhide is always seen grumpy and eager to shoot something and because of this Optimus brings him on their mission for a new world. In hopes of showing Ironhide that revenge isn't the only thing worth fighting for.

Hound – Jeep Patriot (Preferred VA: Tom Kenny) The recon Autobot as well as being the most pacifistic of the group. Hound is tired of war and just wants a nice world to explore and learn for a home. Despite this, he becomes devoted to protecting the Earth. With sharper senses than humans as well as holographic abilities, Hound can easily blend into an environment.

Mirage – Gemballa Ferrari Enzo (Preferred VA: Steven Blum) The espionage specialist and loner of the group. Mirage was once among Cybertron’s luxurious and was spoiled. However, the Decepticons changed all of this and caused many of these families to go broke. Mirage, having been a victim thanks to his inconsiderate usage of his credit, wants it back and spends decades learning as much Cybertronian martial arts to become a capable Autobot in hopes of getting his credit back. Despite preferring to work alone, Mirage has a very charismatic personality and has come to accept the Autobots as his friends despite preferring to return to Cybertron. He is a master at hand-to-hand combat and has cloaking technology. Because of this, and other various reasons, his closest friend in the group is Hound.

Ratchet – Toyota Ambulance (Preferred VA: Corey Burton) The grumpy medic of our 10. Ratchet has been in the war long enough to make him a bit bitter, impatient and with bad beside manner. He’s always seen doing repairs on the ARK and other bots and prefers to remain behind while the others “get their joints re-arranged”, but he begrudgingly begins to admire his comrades, as well as the Earth.

Wheeljack – Ford GT90 (Preferred VA: John DiMaggio) The mechanical expert of the Autobots on Earth. Wheeljack loves to tinker and ends up creating gadgets that even Ratchet states are impossible to make in a certain amount of time. He spends his time with Ratchet, to aid him in repairs and inventions, help him keep his cool with the yournger Autobots or simply to mock him by building gadgets his friend believes impossible to build in such time.


I'll update with the Decepticons later.
Until then, somebody give me great vehicle mode ideas for Reflector, please. At first I was going for an Aptera 2e, but now I'm not so sure about it anymore.

First of all I think a chrome smart car would be a cool reflector.

But till then I give you TRANSFORMERS: A NEW BEGINNING.

My story is similar to yours, these are my characters

The leader: optimus prime, [obviously] alt mode: cab over engine diesel truck, weapon: cyber cannon, qoute "autobots transform and roll for it"
Prime has led autobots through the galaxy but there has not been planet he has loved more then earth, prime led autobots on the arc to earth a planet full of resources that can be converted to energon, a resource that cybertron is in dire need of

The medic: Ratchet, alt mode ambulance, weapon: twin shock blasters, qoute "I can fix almost anything"
Ratchet is a medic plain and simple and
that’s just fine, a grumpy autobot at the best of times Ratchet has a mysterious past that he has revealed to no one.

The scientist: Wheeljack, alt mode sports car with infinity symbol

Wheeljacks inventions most of the time does several things including: blow up, threaten to destroy the entire universe, a easy going bot but a bit of a egomaniac, scientific rival with con scientists breakdown and oil slick.

The racer: hot shot, alt race car

Hot shots name reveals all he is a hot shot, being hyper active all the time gets him into trouble and he’s a bit of a chatter box witch also gets him into trouble, with a bit of a temper witch guess what gets him into trouble

I will get back to you about more of the characters

I’m back with some more bios

The spy: Bumblebee alt mode VW beetle, weapon: stingers, qoute "eat stingers"

One of the only autobots who got along with humans right away, despite the fact some of the older autobots look down on his actions on behalf of the humans, Bumblebee just shakes it off and hangs out with his human friend Ben, by far the friendliest of the autobots.

The security: prowl alt mode police car, weapon: ion blaster, qoute "your going down deceptifreak"

Possibly the least friendly of the autobots, uncomfortable around biological organisms and prefers the prospect of working alone, very logical and prefers to get to the point, also can at some times seem depressed for an unknown reason…..

The weapons: Ironhide, alt mode van, weapons: you name it, qoute "say hello to my big frend"

Ironhide still wishes that things were like they were in the good old days, but as long as he is here he’s going to kick some afterburners, Ironhide is an old bot with an attitude who loves nothing more then the sight of his missiles ripping though a decepticon, often reminisces with ratchet about the good old days.

The bomb: Landmine alt mode front in loader

Landmine has a lot in common with Ironhide: weapons, guns, bombs, missiles, cannons, and everything that is incredibly destructive, bulky and strong Landmine is not the brightest high beam on the front of the car but one decepticon in his sights and….KABOOM! That decepticon is well on his way to the pit!


And the last one is surprising he’s not even a robot

The ten: Ben 10 alt modes 10 aliens

Yes sue me I got Ben 10 in a TF series

Benjamin Tennyson is the son of the third richest man in the world William Tennyson, and to Ben that is just fine he gets any video game he wants gets any toys he wants (you are so jealous) but what he really wants is his parent to pay attention to him but when he’s hanging out at his favorite place outside a factory, the con’s crash the party and start making energon cubes then the autobots arrive and start fighting the decepticons, they the then defeat the con’s Wheeljack whips out some gizmo and flashes it at the workers erasing there short term memory but Ben is not affected, he follows the bot’s back to the arc and walks in with them, the security system detects him and captures him, teletraan 1 notifies optimus of the intruder OP walks down the bridge to meet Ben blah blah blah blah blah blah. In later on episodes Wheeljack creates the omnitrix

And for the decepticons

The leader: Megatron, alt mode panzer, weapon pulse cannon, qoute "yessss"

The terrible leader of the decepticons, Megatron will kill every autobot that gets in his way of being the ultimate ruler of cybertron, his personality is akin to beast wars meg’s, but megatron has particular hatred for three beings: Optimus prime, Starscream, and Ben 10

The traitor: Starscream, alt mode jet plane, weapon null sabers, qoute "I claim the throne of the decepticons"

starscream hates Megatrons circuits; he’s always trying to somehow take over the decepticons, believing to be the rightful leader of the decepticons he has tried to take over countless times and pretty much always failing to kill him and Megatron is always kicking his ass.

The bulk: Lugnut, alt mode bomber plane, weapons the punch, and fusion cannon

All hail the great and glorious Megatron, Lugnut is a simple minded decepticon who looks up to lord Megatron like a god, constantly verbally abused by Starscream who of course hates the glorious Megatron, Lugnut has a regular out look on the autobots wanting to kill every last one, because they would want to hurt the great and glorious Megatron, All hail the great and glorious Megatron

The communications: Soundwave, alt mode boom box, weapons speakers

ACTIVATE OPERATION SOUNDWAVE BIO being utterly loyal to Megatron and having the personality of a battle drone does not make soundwave popular with the other decepticons, with the highest computer level technology Soundwave is the decepticons only hope of ever contacting cybertron again, (NOTE weapons sound is that of a 80 guitar)

The weapon: Brawl, alt mode tank, weapons cannons and super strength

Brawl smash! Brawl is as dumb as a transformer could possibly get, not to mention he can’t spell his own name, his maximum vocabulary is pretty much: Brawl smash! Frequently the other decepticons make fun of his dumbness, but he doesn’t realize it and just continues being himself, smashing autobots, Brawl smash!



Get back with more tomorrow

More of them for yours truly

The scientist: Break down, alt mode sports car, weapon electroimmobilizer

Breakdown is the decepticons main repair bot and scientist, likes to spar with fellow auto bot scientist Wheeljack throwing scientifically offensive words during battles, Breakdown hates his job and even more so that scummy idiot Ben 10, aside from trying eradicate Ben of the omnitrix he hates Ben as a human as well.

The biologist: Oil slick, alt mode sports car, weapon chemicals

Oil slick can’t stand being related to Breakdown because Breakdown is obsessed with machines and technology, while on the other hand Oil slick is obsessed with chemicals and the biological, but there is one thing they both agree on…………. Hating Ben 10

The transport: Astrotrain, alt mode bullet train, space shuttle, weapon deionization ray

Astrotrain has a hard job being the transport for all of the decepticons and all that, but what he has hard problem with is being shoved around like some sort of spare battery: hey Astrotrain come’ on over here help me with this piece of junk, Astrotrain you will transport Lugnut and Brawl to sector 164/372.


And that’s it for the transformers
