The Autobots recognize the peril in remaining and now look to migrate en masse and save the species.

The Decepticons believe that with effort and ingenuity the planet can be saved, though they will need the Autobots resources to do so.

The rest, those unwilling to fight for the causes that has put their world in this predicament, look to survive the storm with their sparks untainted by millenia of violence and destruction.

In these last days of the war on Cybertron the Autobots have constructed a massive ship called The Ark2. Large enough to house thousands of his kind, Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots has made his last push to drive te Decepticons away long enough for liftoff. With the Metrotitan Metroplex on the front lines and the old war hero Kup bringing reinforcements things look positive for the fleeing Cybertronians.

This has Megatron, leader of the Decepticons, in a fury like no other. Personally leading the Decepticon attack with his Combaticon combiners and Aerial Seekers he aims to tear down the Autobots before they escape while Shockwave, under Megatrons orders, begins a systematic destruction of all remaining rebellious elements.

If you guys want it to be.

>>33066608
How rolling works- It is a roll under system where you have to roll under the Attribute being used. Rolls can use different attributes for similar action ie Melee can use either strength, agility or skill and Defense can use either agility, skill or endurance. When rolling for an action you have no skills for you use one dice. Every skill point added to that action adds a single dice.Skills can have up to five points in them. Rolls use the highest dice rolled.

You have 1 point in Deduction.

Gain 9 skill points to spend to spend.(You can spend them on anything really, will leave voting open for 5 minutes, then final voting will occur.)

Anyway, from that description it sounds like we need combat skills? Like melee and Defense would let us apply our stats better?

If so, I'll say something like

Melee+4
Defense+3

>>33066646
Attributes
-Strength (for determining feats of strength, moving/breaking objects, etc)
-Intelligence(for skills such as investigation, strategy, science, negotiation)
-Agility (determines rate of movement, climbing, jumping and acrobatics- can move upto (agility) meters per turn. )
-Endurance (determins HP, resistance to- environments, trauma, chemicals, viruses)
-Perception (determins ability to see far distances, see through camoflage, see through smoke, hear distant calls detect odours)
-Skill (determines ability to weild tools, weapons, fine-motor skills,operate vehicles etc)
-Firepower (determines how much energy a Cybertronian's system can channel to his weapon's output)
-Courage (determines ability to overcome adversity and fear and the ability to rally others)

tracking, investigating, identifying, martial arts, using melee weapons, using ranged weapons.

>>33067521
Yes we will. Skills have a base cost of 10exp, with an additional 5exp per rank. Attributes cost point for point but require someone with the necessary Science or Medical skills to upgrade you.

Abilities are rarer. They cost 20exp for a common ability, 40exp for an uncommon ability
and 50exp for a rare ability. They also require someone with the skills to upgrade you and the resources to make the upgrades.

>>33067987
Yes. I should have mentioned that Rank can`t be bought with exp (though you COULD buy loyalty) and will raise through gameplay. We are essentially a grunt in whatever faction we join, someone who is either new to the faction or we were sidelined to something that wasn`t all that important.


Now all that settled there is one question left who did we join:

The Autobots- Staunch defenders of peace and freedom, you are a grunt who has joined the war hero Kup on his way to support the launch of the Arkk2. Currently en route on the Tri-Torus Loop

The Decepticons- Seekers of glory and strength, you and your fellow grunts are under the command of Razorclaw and his elite Predacon unit on your way to intercept Autobot reinforcements. Currently aboard Astrotrain over Protihex

NAIL- a member of the non aligned indigenous lifeforms, you and the allies you have made are currently hiding in Uraya, the only remaining neutral city on Cybertron. Driven indoors by acid rain, you have heard explosions in the distance...

------------------------

Uraya was never the happiest place in the world. Somewhere between civilization and rust sea someone had decided to erect the city along the Tri-Torus Loop, a long barnacle of barely livible scrapmade habitations. Dotted with cheap workshops and lowquality fuel stations, it was barely a step above the shanties of the Neutral Territories which bled seemlessly into its borders.

The acrid smell of the rain that had been falling for the past day tells you that Cybertron felt as poorly about this place as you did.

"Copper would you close that door?"

A short, round robot with a faded red face peers back over his shoulder. His face is peeking out from under a large plastic tarp he had wrapped around himself to keep the acid rain out and you could see the the wide brim of his helmet holding the tarp out to the sides, past his shoulders but not nearly past his midsection.

"Shut yer exaust port Gyro, a little fumigatin's good for ye. Clear the scrapplets outa yer casin'"

"I'm more worried about the circuits in the relic of a head you have." says a lithe bot reclining on some crates across from you. Tall, long limbs, a brown body color with aqua highlights, Gyro lies on her side, one arm propping up her head and looking bored.

This sets the shorter bot off "OOH worried are ya? Wonderin' if old Copper gone ta rust eh?Well you pull the sealent out o' those ah-di-o receptors and listen carefully, those are explosions I'm tellin' ya." turning back out the door he adds on a more somber note. "Somethin's up."

>Tell them to quite bickering, it's caustic enough in here.
>Tell Gyro that they should listen to Copper, this rain ain't right.
>Tell Copper to come back inside, you'll teleport a few rooms over and take a look around the other side.

``You should listen to your elders Gyro.`` you say. You stiffly stand up from the crate you had been using as a chair. Slightly almost as tall as Gyro but far more robust, with the mass of dark red tentacles curled up on your back and rows of razor sharp teeth along your shoulders. Midnight blue and black, you cut an imposing figure.

``Alright you to play nice, I`m gonna hop over next door and see what the neighbors have heard.``

At this Gyro shrugs slightly and closes her eyes while Copper gives you a curt nod. You walk over to the far wall and -zzap- are standing in a ramshackle room with windows blown out. The damage is old and not worth noticing so you jog around the puddle of acid on the floor and another -zzap- sends you across the narrow street into a neighboring building.

Though it had been occupied a few days ago it was barren now, empty but for a rusted table and a door flapping in the wind. You feel a slight and brief vibration.

You decide to push on.

Teleporting through the wall of the two buildings brings you to a dark room. The door is bolted shut and their are stairs off to the side. The only light source a blinking light on a small computer console and the optics of its owner.

You growl in disgust.

Seated on the floor against the wall is an emaciated figure. You don't need to see the details, you dealt with enough simultronic addict to knows how this one probably looked, especially with that scraprigged piece of junk he was using.

Exhaling slowly you crouch down in front of the burnout and reach out with one hand. As soon as you pull the connecter from the console the skeletal bot lurches forward only to be shoved roughly back against the wall.

He doesn't even have enough strength to groan, his eyes going dark from the impact. You pry off the consoles outer casing and begin to eat its inner workings. You turn and leave up the stairs, leaving the junky sitting against the wall, head lolling from one side to the other.

Walking up the stairs you enter a large room with vast windows on each side, three of which are still intact and look out over the cityscape. Overhead you see the gentle curve of the Tri-Torus Loop, the continent spanning super highway. Thought the tops of its spires are hidden behind noxious brown-yellow clouds its supports and base roadway are no less impressive. Off to the distance, though you can't see them, you know the ruins of the Altihex starports squat as an ugly reminder of the thing lost in this war.

You miss Altihex. The one vacation you had ever taken had been to one of its fine oil spas. It had been like being in the Light of Primus.

Turning slowly you come out of your reverie with a shock. A great inferno rages to the south, whole city blocks engulfed in thick yellow smoke that was glowing a bright orange from below.

A few moments later another group of buildings close to the inferno go up in flames. The fire rises quickly and brilliantly, followed by a smaller chain of explosions, then gets nearly smothered by the rain. Great plumes of noxious smoke billowing outward and obscure your view.

>Roll 91

So intent on the destruction you are taken unawares by a weight slamming into your back. Rusted, claw-like finger scrabble over your trident shaped forehead piece before grasping onto the cables flowing out of the back of your skull, the other hand latching on to a shoulder guard without a care for the razor sharp teeth.
Weak legs strike at your back in a fit as the burnout you'd left downstairs screams bites down on your back tentacles.

reaching your left hand back you grab hold of the hand holding your cables, while your right catches one of his flailing feet. He screeches and lets go of your shoulder to scratch your hand at which you let go of the leg and heave him up and over you. He hits the ground with a thud and a moan.

You watch his optics flicker and fade as he falls unconscious then look back outside. More fires have started and you feel like it's time to leave.
Looking down at the junky you:
>Leave him, he's dead weight.
>Take him, you are programed to serve and protect after all.

And then

>>33071846
Not him, but the decepticons view on power being the most important thing is both short sighted and unstable. Lacking a powerful opponent, they would've destroyed themselves long ago.

Cybertron is a testament to why the autobot's view on freedom at any cost is just as foolishly muleheaded as the decepticons.

>>33071792
Given the circumstances that sparked the war, the only real idealist is Megatron. Prime was an idealist at first, but the Autobots stayed around because someone has to stand in the decepticons way.

>>33071757
>>Take him, you are programed to serve and protect after all.

With a sigh you look out at the burning city, then back down to the junky.
"Come on bud." you say and heft him up into your arms. If you had slung him over your should he would have shredded himself so you cradle the emaciated body to your chest.

Hurrying along down the stairs you -zzap- back to the wrecked room then move to the corner next to the one you first ported to and -zzap- back into your room.

Standing on top of some crates you look down at your friends, while they look at you with wary relief.

Copper is still at the door but he has his rifle held at ready. Gyro stands slightly to the doors' side, her energy buckler on her left fist and a pistol in her right hand.

"Hey chief." Gyro greets you.

"Whats going on?" you ask.

"Some bitties ran by a sqwauking an' a hollerin'. Thought they was talkin' bout you. Whats with th'blown fuse? Run into whatevers making a ruckus out there?" Copper replies.

"No, he's just along for the ride. Saw some explosions, whole city's burning down."

"Figures." Copper says.

"Gyro looks at him 'Why?"

"Rains meant t'keep us in. Easy targets, like shootin' caged Turbofox. Then they hit th'place bit by bit an' stomp whatever crawls out."

She huffs "Right, how do you know the acid isn't just setting of energon caches?"

"I think he's right," you interject "Someone was flying around out there."

While Gyro doesn't seem completely convinced
she nods in acceptance. "So what do we do then?"

Copper jiggles the door." We should take this 'ere door as a makeshift umbrella." he points to the open door across the street "Then head through there. Th'others were headin' to th'back ally market, place is most;y roofed over. Then we head which ever way the fire ain't."

What's our Energon at right now?

>>33072453

Which reminds me, we should look around for snacks on our way out.

>>33072332
How common are maintenance tunnels here, and how familiar are we with the subsurface layer of the city? Is >>33072374 an option that we can take? Because if so, I vote for that.

Being an aquatic teleporter, we're perfectly adapted for sewer-fighting. Or whatever tubes cybertron has. But we don't want to wander around blind down there while things are exploding, we might stumble into a warzone area without realising. Better to remain topside while we can, to navigate.

Wait I thought Megatron being a dickbutt started the war? And the Autobots are defending against him.

>>33072332
And now I'm wondering if copper or gyro have ever seen us mad enough to transform.

>>33072521

You nod. "Alright, but if things get rusty I'm porting us all underground."

Copper nods and proceeds to tear the door off its hinges while Gyro makes a sour face.

"You sure they won't be flooded from all this rain?"

"Shouldn't be. They were designed to run separately but with access hatches along the tunnel."

With a grunt Copper takes the door and lifts it over his head then nods to Gyro. The taller bot crouches down and follows Copper across, the wider bot protected by his tarp. He returns after she's through and ushers you to come.

As you cross, the pitter patter of rain on the door and the stench of acid fumes filling your nostrils, you look right then left. You see several dark shapes under a balcony ledge.

The first shot goes wide, flashing between you and Copper and over the junky's limp body.

"Move!"you shout, barreling into Copper, making him drop the door fall into the next building.

You scowl at the Decepticons and transform! Passing the junky back and lunging your chest plate rises, revealing a pointed cone like face while your arms fold foreword, your shoulders coming together to form the gnashing lower jaw to the predatory head. Teeth, sharp and glinting emerge from the upper jaw. As your arms folded the cluster of coiled tentacles on your back fold out like a fan, circling your midsection in two rows, one behind the other. Along your sides your legs fold upward and the shins flatten and extend to create pectoral fins, the feet merging behind you to form a point. To finish it off a dorsal fin emerges from your back with a glinting edge.

You roar and the Decepticons seem visibly shaken for a moment.

The junky snoozes behind you, wrapped in a single tentacle.
