TF OC - Nanu Bennett Temauri

Nanu was born on the small peninsula of Tahiti Iti, from a Tahitian man and an American woman. Her parents worked together in a chain of Hotel her mother's family founded years ago. When she was around 6, they moved to the larger portion of the island, Tahiti Nui, and there she continued with her quiet life.

Everything was shaken up when the Cybertronians arrived on Earth on 2007, although nothing really changed over the course of the Polynesian island's life. However, an unfortunate trip to Chicago took a dramatic turn when it ended up seized and destroyed in what passed down in history as the "Battle of Chicago", in 2011. In between the 1.300 civilians who perished between the initial assault and the actual infightings between humans, Decepticons and Autobots, her parents ended in the list of casualties after they died in a collapsed building of the city center. Nanu and Ilima survived by the skin of their teeth, but she got her left leg torn off on the city's streets while trying to hide around the outskirts beside her elder sister.

Scarred for the rest of her days alongisde her, they finally returned in Tahiti after long weeks of turmoil on the American soil. Ilima inherited the company of their parents, while for Nanu it begun her long period of recovery, mental and physical. Although Ilima begun to share the same bitterness against any and all of the Cybertronians left on Earth after that severe "incident", Nanu remained faithful toward the Autobots, who saved the city, and the United States with it, after all. Openly going against the actions of the group Cemetery Wind, despite their theatrical cover-up of their actions in their five years of their hunts, she got in trouble more than once for that.

In the same time period, during one of her Summer trips to Tahiti Iti, she crossed her path with a Noble Cybertronian herself, another one who fell from the atmosphere in the broken hope to survive an even more hostile place. Nanu gave her the name Tide, and eventually formed a strong bond with her throughout her strenuous attempts to keep her safe on the Island against also the reformed Cemetery Wind into the Transformers Reaction Force, or TRF.

As new threats and allies emerges from the ashes of the infightings between humans and aliens, she's still more than motivated to continue with her path beside the long lost Lady of Iacon, as more mysteries and relics keeps resurfacing on Earth...

After I've had a huge marathon of Transformers content in the past months, I feel like I can say that the brainrot is real after a good decade xD

So far it was the entire Bayverse line, then both Bumblebee and ROTB, then the Trilogy of "The War on Cybertron" - I think the next step is Prime since it came around the films after Animated (which I watched in my very early teen age, good memories :') )!

I'd go first with these described, so far affiliated with Bayverse, but I might add them in the future with other Titles the more I continue to work with them x)
