Transformers Revolution Season 1 Autobot cast
Deviation Actions
Literature Text
Optimus Prime: Since the death of their founder, Sentinel Prime, Optimus has been the leader of the Autobot Resistance for over 50 stellar cycles. His leadership style emphasizes wisdom and compassion towards his soldiers, rather than strictness. However, he will show a tougher side if they overstep their boundaries. In addition to his extensive combat experience, Optimus wields the Matrix of Leadership, granting him access to the wisdom of Primus himself.
Bumblebee: Bumblebee originally joined the Elite Guard as an officer, but he quickly realized that Megatron was using them to persecute anyone suspected of treason. Realizing this, he left to join the Autobot Resistance, seeking to serve true justice. Although he is still young and inexperienced and is more like a follower than a leader, he finds it challenging when required to think on his own. Despite these struggles, his strong desire to do what is right and ensure justice is served correctly makes Bumblebee an exceptional soldier.
Ratchet: Although he is a medic, Ratchet has witnessed plenty of bloodshed in this war, which has left traumatic effects on his psyche. Now suffering from PTSD and survivor's guilt after losing several patients under his care, Ratchet has turned to self-destructive habits, such as drinking Engex. While he rarely leaves the base and prefers to avoid the action, he will enter the battlefield if necessary and remain a competent fighter.
Ironhide: Ironhide is a seasoned veteran of the Cybertronian army, skilled in various firearms. He refused to join his former commander Megatron in overthrowing the government and now serves as a key weapons specialist for the Autobot Resistance. Off the battlefield, Ironhide is usually reserved, speaking mainly with close friends like Optimus and Ratchet. In battle, however, he becomes loud and a bit trigger-happy.
Jazz: Once a famous racer, Jazz lost his title to a young competitor named Override. Now, he uses his stealth skills and speed to spy on the Decepticons and collect intel for the Autobots. Jazz is one of the most laid-back and sociable Autobots, making it easy for him to connect with others. He often takes on the role of an older brother figure to the younger Autobots, Bumblebee, and Cliffjumper, and is usually the one to mediate arguments among his teammates.
Cliffjumper: While the Autobots are generally considered a group of rebels, Cliffjumper stands out as a true free spirit. He prefers to do things his way, and his criminal past has made it difficult for him to respect authority. Driven by his thrill-seeking nature, he often disobeys orders and puts himself in danger, all for the adrenaline rush. This habit puts him at odds with Bumblebee, who is more rule-oriented and whom Cliffjumper views as an annoying brown-noser. However, there is hope that both youngsters can learn from each other and grow into better soldiers.
special thanks to my friends Daizua123 for editing this for me and RobinCastle for drawing the awesome artwork of the characters for this.
My compliments to the artist, he did a good job updating the classic G1 designs while also mixing in elements from the Bayverse to add that touch of grittiness that makes the Autobots feel more like real soldiers. As to your writing, the individual profiles are concise but still detailed, with little hints about past events woven in that you can potentially expand on in later works. I find it interesting that you're going with an Optimus that, while still an experienced soldier, has only recently become leader, since that gives you room to explore him growing into his role and build up his rivalry with Megatron.
